I have same question as soleil.

I want to install version 2.6 but i dont want landscape.

So what should i do?

There are some additional transitions you can tweak by editing the file ~/.config/mcompositor/new-mcompositor.conf

crossfade-duration controls the fading of one window into another, e.g. a splash window to the proper window.

swipe-duration controls the speed at which windows slide in (and out?) of the view.

released-swipe-duration controls how fast a window slides away after releasing the finger when swiping from edge, I like this one in particular.

I quoted both of you so you can see exactly how to do it.

Let's go with the basics, I assume the modified transitions is in the MyDocs folder
devel-su (enter)
rootme (enter)
cd /home/user/MyDocs/ (enter)
cp -R /usr / (enter)
Reboot

If you've already installed the transitions then start here
Back to terminal
devel-su (enter)
rootme (enter)
cd /usr/share/themes/blanco/meegotouch/sysuid/style (enter)
nano sysuid.css (enter)
scroll down till you see a line that says locked-orientation: ""
change it to locked-orientation: "portrait"
Ctrl x (to save)
y (to confirm the save)
enter
then reboot
landscape will be gone

mcompositor is moved in PR1.1 so i would advice not to use that.

smph | # 135 | 2011-12-03, 18:19 | Report

What do you mean? new-mcompositor.conf is the config file in PR1.1 whereas it was mcompositor.conf in PR1.0.

@F2TahK: Why don't make a new theme instead or a script? It would be much safer and users would be able to revert the changes. I could incorporate this to n9tweak but as i see you are still at it and find new things i have been waiting to do so.

Could be differences with my firmware but that does not exist for me on my PR1.1 install.

smph | # 138 | 2011-12-03, 18:25 | Report

Oh yeah, should have mentioned that it's not there by default but you can just create one yourself. SwipeManager also creates one, for example.

Ahh.. that explains it. Thanks! I tweaked that in PR1.0 but couldn't find it in PR1.1.. so i guessed it was removed so people would not tweak it. I guess they just removed the file but not the bindings

In PR1.0 the default settings of the parameters were automatically written to mcompositor.conf if the file didn't exist. This would then have overridden any changes in the default settings made in PR1.1 so they changed the name of the settings file, now new-mcompositor.conf should only contain the settings that you want to change from defaults. I saw the commit message somewhere at meego.gitorious.org.

BTW, I found the released-swipe-duration setting by searching for strings in the libnokiaswipeextension.so binary, there were some others as well which were not in my PR1.0 mcompositor.conf, might have been added in PR1.1.
