There's difference between edge resistance and edge attraction (ie "magnatism"). In the first case the mouse has to be moved n pixels along a given axis when two windows touch before the window being moved starts moving again. So in effect, you're "dropping" pixels, or whatever units are used to measure mouse movement on the display. In the second case, a window "jumps" up against another window when it gets n pixels away. I personally like the former a lot, and really dislike the later. This only serves to demonstrate that window manger writers can't make more than about 50% users happy on any given day.. TC
