Could someone please post a screenie of the default values for Cinnamon's window effects?
System Settings -> Effects -> Print Screen/Paste to forum! =3
There is an old thread that has some old values which isn't correct for Mint 17 Cinnamon 2.2.
I was playing around with some settings and when I was finished I went looking for the 'ol "Restore Default" button and was amazed there wasn't one; so please help me out of this pickle!
Thank you.
Mike

Sorry, I don't have the default settings anymore - and the only way to be sure you are actually getting the default settings might be to boot your Mint DVD and take a look there.
EDIT: in fact, I can do that...

On a side note, there is a "Restore default settings option". However it returns all your system settings to the defaults. You can find it by right clicking the Cinnamon panel and choosing troubleshoot. You can also reset just the "Effects" setting to default pretty easily if you have dconf installed. Choose org->cinnamon and you will find them all listed as "desktop-effects-somename". Highlight each one and at the bottom of the window hit the "Restore to Default" button.
When I give opinions, they are my own. Not necessarily those of any other Linux Mint developer or the Linux Mint project as a whole.
Re: Need Default Cinnamon Window Effects!
Came across this thread looking for the same answer. After checking out dconf, I came up with this bit of bash-fu to reset the desktop-effects settings without blowing away the rest of your Cinnamon configs:
Code: Select all
for key in `dconf list /org/cinnamon/ | grep desktop-effects`; do dconf reset /org/cinnamon/$key; done
