- └────────────────────────────┘
-
-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 i3’s support for RandR 1.5, which transparently supports the TILE
-property of first-gen 4K monitors and current 5K or 8K monitors.

+    build?” sections

+  • 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)
