Adding effects to kwin - possible?

Hi All,

Does anyone know how to add effects to KWin?
I want the “sliding windows” effect for the alt-tab behaviour. I know this effect exists, I use it in another distro but opensuse 12.1 doesn’t seem to have it.
By the way, it’s the coolest-looking alt-tab effect by far (IMO).

TIA

Do you mean Flip Switch? The one that uses the Alt & Tab? It’s in there, if thats’ what you mean.

No, that’s not it.
What I mean is this: Alt-Tab with KDE 4.6 - YouTube
I think it’s called “Sliding windows” in another distro.
A very cool-looking alt-tabber

I use this all the time it is in (sorry have to translate from german)
system settings -> desktop effects -> effect for changing windows -> 3d
windows galery (I hope you can somehow map that to what it is really
called in english KDE)
