KDE4 Oxygen
I switched to kde4 only 2 month ago. At the beginning i was unable to get the composite effects of kwin4 working with my nvidia graphics card. During that span i started to dislike one of oxygens decisions. I think i read somewhere it was a conscious decision. The following screenshort illustrates that feature. As you may notice there is no visual separation between the windows. The title bar has the same grey as the other windows background. The eyes have no help finding the title bar and that means no help in finding the menu. I hated that and switched to another window decoration.
When composite effect started to work for me i found a solution with a effect darkening inactive windows. I think thats much better. But i guess there is still a bug because the other konsole window isn't darkened although it is obviously inactive.
Update: I just noticed that isn't a bug but a feature. That effect has a configuration option "Apply effect to groups" that was active. When deactivating it the other konsole window got darkened too. But i think that option isn't very self explanatory
