hopefully this isn't a duplicate, but i had trouble coming up with search terms on this:

how do i get into the compiz settings to channge the feature where you put the cursor in the corner and all the running apps spread out on the desktop. i want to swich mine from the right corner to the left corner. i followed the install advice but the right corner is a crappy place to put that, since i keep accidently activating it when i try to shut down a window.

please have mercy in your directions. i'm an idiot.

i'm pretty sure that you can change this setting by going to advanced desktop settings and find the expo plugin. there should be a tab with actions and there you can find the screen corners :) gl

totalnub, your directions got me into the right place, but there's nothing called "screen corners." from what i can tell searching the compiz fusion wiki, that feature may be called "expo" but when i go into it there's no setting to chose which corner will activate it. sorry about the hand holding, but i'm leery about just mucking around in these settings as that usually spells disaster.
