┌────────────────────────────┐
│ Release notes for i3 v4.14 │
└────────────────────────────┘
This is i3 v4.14. This version is considered stable. All users of i3 are
strongly encouraged to upgrade.
Aside from many bug and documentation fixes, the “swap” command is a notable
addition of this release. As is almost tradition at this point, keybinding
handling has seen some fixes as well. A noticeable change for users with such
monitors is i3s support for RandR 1.5, which transparently supports the TILE
property of first-gen 4K monitors and current 5K or 8K monitors.
┌────────────────────────────┐
│ Changes in i3 v4.14 │
└────────────────────────────┘
• build: link libiconv explicitly for systems which need it

current 5K and 8K monitors

• support the _NET_MOVERESIZE_WINDOW client message (for e.g. wmctrl)
• validate binding modes are not defined more than once
• only react to the last ExposeEvent in a series of events
• add the shutdown IPC event (upon “restart” or “exit”)
• treat left/right scrolling like up/down scrolling (on window titles)
• make the “layout toggle” command optionally take a sequence of layouts
• introduce --exclude-titlebar flag for mouse bindings
• introduce the “swap” command
• support the primary output in the “focus” and “move” commands
• compare keybinding modifiers for equality, not subset
• introduce the GET_CONFIG ipc request (i3-msg -t get_config)
• start i3-nagbar when encountering invalid set statements
• focus windows upon ConfigureWindow requests with stack-mode=Above

│ Bugfixes │
└────────────────────────────┘
• i3bar: correct the color codes used for statusline errors
• i3bar: avoid freeze after VisibilityNotify
• i3-dmenu-desktop: fix quoted command names
• i3-dmenu-desktop: avoid adding items multiple times
• fix various X11 resource leaks, memory leaks and memory errors
• fix IPC success reply for the workspace command
• report errors during logfile creation
• fix the signal handler being blank
• display marks and the title even if the title is empty (for title_format)
• fix changing workspace layout from stacked/tabbed for empty workspaces
• add numlock fallback to “bindcode” where necessary
• fix a crash on restart when using marks
• fix renaming workspaces when the new name starts with “to”

└────────────────────────────┘
This is i3 v4.15. This version is considered stable. All users of i3 are
strongly encouraged to upgrade.
Aside from a number of fixes and documentation improvements, a number of
commands have been extended to be more complete (e.g. “assign”, “resize”).
┌────────────────────────────┐
│ Changes in i3 v4.15 │
└────────────────────────────┘
• build: AnyEvent::I3 moved to the i3 repository, so that its main consumer,
the i3 testsuite, can use new features immediately (such as the tick event,
in this case).
• docs/hacking-howto: promote “using git / sending patches” and “how to
build?” sections
• docs/i3bar-protocol: document that pango markup only works with pango fonts
• docs/ipc: document focus, nodes, floating_nodes
• docs/ipc: urgent: complete the list of container types
• docs/ipc: document how to detect i3s byte order in memory-safe languages
• docs/ipc: document the GET_CONFIG request
• docs/userguide: fix formatting issue
• docs/userguide: explain why Mod4 is usually preferred as a modifier
• docs/userguide: use more idiomatic english (full-size, so-called)
• docs/userguide: switch from removed goto command to focus
• docs/userguide: mention <criteria> in focus
• docs/userguide: remove outdated 2013 last-modified date
• dump-asy: add prerequisite checks
• dump-asy: fix warnings about empty container names
• i3-dump-log: enable shmlog on demand
• i3-sensible-terminal: add “kitty”, “guake”, “tilda”
• i3-sensible-editor: add “gvim”
• i3bar: add --release flag for bindsym in bar blocks
• i3bar: add relative coordinates in JSON for click events
• ipc: rename COMMAND to RUN_COMMAND for consistency
• ipc: implement tick event for less flaky tests
• ipc: add error reply to “focus <window_mode>”
• ipc: send success response for nop
• default config: add $mod+r to toggle resize mode
• default config: use variables for workspace names to avoid repetition
• introduce “assign <criteria> [→] [workspace] [number] <workspace>”
• introduce “assign <criteria> [→] output left|right|up|down|primary|<output>”
• introduce a “focus_wrapping” option (subsumes “force_focus_wrapping”)
• introduce percentage point resizing for floating containers:
“resize set <width> [px | ppt] <height> [px | ppt]”
• introduce “resize set <width> ppt <height> ppt” for tiling windows
• rename “new_window” and “new_float” to “default_border” and
“default_floating_border” (the old names keep working)
• output names (e.g. “DP2”) can now be used as synonyms for monitor names
(e.g. “Dell UP2414Q”).
• the “swap” command now works with fullscreen windows
• raise floating windows to top when they are focused programmatically
• _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW: invalidate focus to force SetInputFocus call
• make focus handling consistent when changing focus between outputs
