What is striding window entry?

0

For those not content for the abrupt entry of a window, this is your feature. While not strictly necessary for a window manger’s existence, it can provide a possibly necessary bit of “eye candy” for novice (or power) users to see when a window is actually spawned. If this user-decided preference is chosen, a window will not immediately be raised and pop up, but rather come from a random corner each time, and literally animate across (“stride”) to its proper destination. This will obviously be as slow or as fast as moving an opaque window would be under normal circumstances in Enlightenment. I think it would be interesting to collate some data about how physically useful this is to those who have seizures from large instantaneous changes in screen visuals.
