If you set the option to the special string "disabled", then there will be no keybinding for this action. /schemas/apps/metacity/global_keybindings/switch_to_workspace_down /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/switch_to_workspace_down metacity string <Control><Alt>Down Switch to workspace below the current space The keybinding that switches to the workspace below the current workspace. The format looks like "<Control>a" or "<Shift><Alt>F1. The parser is fairly liberal and allows lower or upper case, and also abbreviations such as "<Ctl>" and "<Ctrl>". If you set the option to the special string "disabled", then there will be no keybinding for this action. /schemas/apps/metacity/global_keybindings/run_command /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/run_command_1 /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/run_command_2 /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/run_command_3 /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/run_command_4 /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/run_command_5 /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/run_command_6 /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/run_command_7 /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/run_command_8 /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/run_command_9 /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/run_command_10 /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/run_command_11 /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/run_command_12 metacity string disabled Run a defined command The keybinding that runs the correspondingly-numbered command in /apps/metacity/keybinding_commands The format looks like "<Control>a" or "<Shift><Alt>F1. The parser is fairly liberal and allows lower or upper case, and also abbreviations such as "<Ctl>" and "<Ctrl>".

Pressing the keybinding for run_command_N will execute command_N. /schemas/apps/metacity/general/application_based /apps/metacity/general/application_based metacity bool false (Not implemented) Navigation works in terms of applications not windows If true, then Metacity works in terms of applications rather than windows. The concept is a bit abstract, but in general an application-based setup is more like the Mac and less like Windows. When you focus a window in application-based mode, all the windows in the application will be raised. Also, in application-based mode, focus clicks are not passed through to windows in other applications. The existence of this setting is somewhat questionable. But it's better than having settings for all the specific details of application-based vs. window-based, e.g. whether to pass through clicks. Also, application-based mode is largely unimplemented at the moment. /schemas/apps/metacity/general/disable_workarounds /apps/metacity/general/disable_workarounds metacity bool false Disable misfeatures that are required by old or broken applications Some applications break specifications in ways that result in window manager misfeatures. For example, ideally Metacity would place all dialogs in a consistent position with respect to their parent window. This requires ignoring application-specified positions for dialogs. But some versions of Java/Swing mark their popup menus as dialogs, so Metacity has to disable dialog positioning to allow menus to work in broken Java applications. There are several other examples like this. This option puts Metacity in full-on Correct mode, which perhaps gives a moderately nicer UI if you don't need to run any broken apps. Sadly, workarounds must be enabled by default; the real world is an ugly place. Some of the workarounds are workarounds for limitations in the specifications themselves, so sometimes a bug in no-workarounds mode won't be fixable without amending a spec.
