Microshaft is in the business of catering to non-techies.

A job techies suck at.

There is still untold fortunes to be made by techies catering
to non-techies by giving them more choices, monitoring which
things work and then including those things as standard choices
in every distro.

I like my desktop to be translucent cube.
I want one button to do this:

(This is what I need to do in Ubuntu 14.04)



    Right click desktop > Change desktop background > Theme > Radiance 
(otherwise the borders on windows will be dar in the next steps)
        Also set the desktop timeout to avoid PC screen lock every 5 minutes
        If have internet then easier to set up firefox to log into this web 
page for all the commands and guidance 
    sudo apt-get install gnome-session-fallback
    reboot
    Log back in under with gnome-compiz - click on the small round icon 
above the login box to select the gnome-compiz window manager
    sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager compiz-plugins-extra
    The following commands are very risky - please wait and react slowly
        NOTE after clicking, the software updates the settings - but there 
is a lag. Clicking during the update lag could cause compiz to crash and to 
completely wipe all the good settings 
    Set General Options > Desktop Size > Horizontal Virtual screen size 7 or 
more (high definition screens with low graphics RAM cannot have more than 
couple of windows)
    Click on the Back button
    Disable the Desktop Wall
    Enable Desktop Cube
        Desktop Cube > Transparent Cube > Opacity during rotation 27%
        Desktop Cube > Transparent Cube > Non rotating opacity 33%
        Desktop Cube > Appearance > Skydome > Skydome - set check mark
        Desktop Cube > Appearance > Skydome > skydome gradient start colour 
yellow #FEFFC7
        Desktop Cube > Appearance > Skydome > skydome gradient end colour 
blue #0DB1FD 
    Enable Rotate Cube
    Enable Wobbly Windows effect
        At this point the software may crash - reboot PC and log back in - 
if it has worked then the transparent cube should be showing 
    Enable window decoration
    Enable Animation
    Enable Fading Windows
    Enable Move window
    Enable Resize window
    Enable Grid
    Enable place windows
    Enable Scale
    Enable Viewport Switcher
        Viewport Switcher > Desktop-based Viewport Switching
        move left = Button 4
        move right = Button 5 

    If the screen hasn't changed to translucent, reboot PC.
