I love the simplicity of SolveSpace but I wish they’d have a loft or sweep feature and it would support free form modelling in some way. Then it would be perfect for me.

Yeah I also like the customizability of the desktop and how lean the window manager can be. I just wish there was some more documentation and setup guides but I guess it’s just a little to early for that.

I got Canoe and jrwm to show me some windows. But on other WMs I think they just don’t register my keypresses like they should so there a re no windows showing up. Maybe I’m missing some other package or step that is so “well known” that it’s not included in any of the setup guides. In general I think the setup process to a basic functioning system is just more involved than I’ve had on other DEs. And I’m probably not deep enough into Linux and am expecting more from the window manager than it actually offers.

I like the concept and tried it on Arch once but couldn’t really get most window managers to work. The screen was just black and there was no mouse movement. I searched for some tutorials on how to get started but couldn’t find any. Do you have tips on how to get a working basic setup from which you can actually try out all the different WMs?
