Automatically turn off Plasma Desktop effects when launching a Steam game?
Automatically turn off Plasma Desktop effects when launching a Steam game?
Title. Turning off the fancy effects (which can be done with Alt+Shift+F12) improves performance slightly, but having to toggle them on and off every time I start a game is... Y'know. A thing.
I was wondering if there was a way to automate it, like game opens -> they turn off, game process ends -> they turn back on
You're viewing a single thread.
I was under the impression this was done automatically when in full-screen, are you sure this isn't the case?
It might? I don't use exclusive fullscreen ever. :P I'm too ADHD for that. I always have chat windows on my second screen and am constantly tabbing out on load screen and shit.
Yes, this happens automatically for me when I launch games. I don't remember doing anything special to set it up (Kubuntu with nVidia drivers on X11). I do mostly game in true full screen though, not "full screened window"
Proton used to disable compositing back in version 5 or 6, then one (minor) update messed it up. iirc it was reported to the issue tracker but still hasn't been fixed. proton-ge still keeps the compositor disabled.
