| + | ==== Embed xfwm's tabs ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Use a GtkPlug/GtkSocket setup to embed the specific xfwm tabs into the settings dialogs. It would be similar to how the settings manager embeds processes and keep coupling loose for new shortcut/settings updates. | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Discussion ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | * The next logical move seems to be a merge of the xfwm4 and xfwm4-tweaks dialogs, however, this bears a few problems: | ||
| + | * There'd be 2 tabs with the same title (Focus), they'd either have to be merged or one of them renamed | ||
| + | * There'd be 8 tabs (or 7, if Focus tabs are merged) in this dialog, which seems a bit hefty | ||
