I haven't tried it, and there is no mention in docs about zoom, sorry. Open the issue at github, developer actually reads it :) and seems open to
suggestions, ideas and patches.
What's the status of compton anyway? Is it the official Xorg compositing engine?
cheers James
Compton is a fork of xcompmgr-dana, which is a fork of xcompmgr (PoC compositor from xorg, or closest to 'official xorg compositing engine' you can get).
Some distributions are considering compton as a replacement/alternative to Compiz or xfwm compositor, because not everyone wants all the bells and whistles that Compiz has, so its better suited for light(er) DE, and it just works[tm] (after some tinkering with default configuration).
And for 0.x release, it is very stable and fast :)
My .02 RSD (I ran out of cents).

Actually, XFWM's compositor seems very similar to Compton's (shadows on windows etc.) and it works perfectly for my netbook with no screen tearing when I'm playing videos or using transparent terminals (GMA3150, xf86-video-intel). Compton may be useful for Openbox, but XFCE's compositor is just fine for XFCE. Check your xorg.conf or xorg.conf.d, people. ;) P.S.: Peđo, pozdrav sunarodniče! -- Rex <bjorn@krstarica.com>
