Configuring mouse wheel

I used to xfce4 WM and to shade/unshade windows by mousewheel on top of the window titlebar. Is that possible to configure it in kde ? If so where i should look for that ?
Sorry for my pure english ... ;(

The window title bar, also called window decoration, is part of the window manager, i.e. it s drawn and managed by the window manager, in your case xfce.

So you'll have to look there or ask on one of their mailinglists or forums.

I think the parent post was asking for a way to configure kwin to behave like the xfce window manager does -- that is, to shade a window by use of the scroll wheel on the window title.

As far as I know this can't be done in kwin, or if it can it's a hidden setting. The only shading action I know of is either using a double click or a title bar button.

I think you can also activate window shading using a global key binding, which can be set up in the Keyboard Shortcuts section of the control center. I'm at work now, so I can't check this for sure.

Thx for the replays.

Yes, i'm looking for the feature as Itmon said. When i kill kwin and run xfwm4 then i've got that feature, but i prefer kwin to keep my windows decorations. I know the double click option, but it doesn't suite my needs. If there is no such an option then i'll try to code that by myself.

cheers
