Are you able to keep the rotation when it is activated via mouse by not reseting the cube animation ?

Would be handy when you rotate the cube and let it standing rotated until i press esc, right click or something similar. This way screenshots can be made easily with the gnome screenshot utility or just to have a pretty overview, standing up doing some work in house and similar :)

I think it wouldnt be hard to integrate such an option in the settings. As far as i am remembering it KDE has such a similar behaviour at their cube solution.

I am not sure if that's easily possible. The code of GNOME Shell for switching workspaces is mostly untouched by the Desktop Cube. And when switching workspaces in GNOME Shell, you cannot stop between two workspaces either.

Once I find the time, I'll see if this could be possible.

You can sort of already do that. Enter overview, drag, and release when the mouse is at the topbar. The cube will not snap until you click something.

Like this behaviour - i can remember it from KDE and would love using this in the Desktop Cube at Gnome.

For example it would be great to rotate the cube with left mouse button while it doesnt snap for more overview. A rightclick / doubleclick could trigger the snap.

I suggest to take a fast look at KDE how they solved it and integrate a similar option for the desktop cube in gnome.

Looking forward.
