=== Switch to Metacity window manager ===
Sugar has [[Features/Metacity|switched]] window manager from Matchbox to Metacity. Matchbox was designed for small devices that run all applications maximized. Sugar can run on devices with larger screens, and some of the more complicated applications (not specifically designed for Sugar) can break when run in Matchbox. Using Metacity instead means that some unsugarized apps will run better inside Sugar.

Sugar has [[Features/Metacity|switched]] window manager from Matchbox to Metacity. Matchbox was designed for small devices that run all applications maximized. Sugar can run on devices with larger screens, and some of the more complicated applications (not specifically designed for Sugar) can behave in unexpected ways when run with Matchbox. Switching to Metacity instead means that some unsugarized applications will run better inside Sugar. This effort is a part of our endeavour to ensure that "traditional" desktop applications run well in Sugar, without requiring any kind of programming or behavioural changes.
