....to occur dynamically during the move itself. For example, while the dragged window is moved, each overlapped window can be moved out of the way. In complementary work, Badros, Nichols, and Borning have explored the incorporation of modern constraint systems within a programmable window manager [1]. Their SCWM (Scheme Constraints Window Manager) allows the user to place classical constraints on windows; for example, to keep one window to the left of another or to keep the total height of two windows constant. While these constraints can allow interesting and useful behavior, they operate ....

....them in the multitude of activities that encompass a typical work session. We have developed a new X window manager as a platform for research on more advanced and intelligent window layout and interaction paradigms. Our Scheme Constraints Window Manager, or SCWM (Badros Stachowiak 1999; Badros, Nichols, Borning 2000b) improves the state of the art in providing smart window layout. We achieve this as a result of two significant design decisions: 1) to embed a Scheme interpreter as its extension language; and 2) to embed the Cassowary constraint solving toolkit (Badros Borning 1998) to support declarative ....
....has taken time and effort, we feel that the benefits from user feedback outweigh the costs. Much needs to be done to continue to improve SCWM and achieve a better understanding of how we can better support the intelligence our users demand from their window manager. We have done some user testing (Badros, Nichols, Borning 2000a) and more user studies will prove useful to better quantify what benefits users may experience from the advanced features of SCWM. Our current user interface only supports constraints among windows. It seems useful to permit the addition of guide line elements and allow windows to be ....
