Does Linux have this feature?
Yeah actually. You could even intentionally use a DE that does this on most distros.
>>107662147this is actually good.saves cpu cycles instead of needlessly updating what is behind or rendering some stupid wallpaper
I still remember the times when Windows had an option to only render a frame of the application you're dragging around and only show it on the new position after you let go of the mouse button
>>107664186You can still switch to that if you want.
>>107662147on wayland probably
>>107664186It still has that:REGEDIT4[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]"DragFullWindows"="0"
REGEDIT4[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]"DragFullWindows"="0"
>>107664462>>107664192I'm not on windows anymore but would be interesting to see how it would look now. I think back then it was a dotted linear box.
>>107664577Still is. >>107664462You don't even need registry.
>>107664593Ha! Cute
does Plan 9 still let you accidentally delete windows with backspace?
>>107664593That's totally unrelated, anon.He's talking about window movement, not the selection rectangle.
>>107664638probably looks the same tho
>>107662147no, linux doesn't have viruses
>>107664186>>107664577
>>107665419>no more dotted linesboo
>>107665419>10what about 11?
>>107662147I've seen that on xfe, it doesn't crash or anything but it does do it when loading something
>>107666549>I've seen that on xfeSame but KDE on Wayland.
