│ Release notes for i3 v4.2 │

└──────────────────────────────┘
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This is the second release of the new major version of i3, v4.2. It is
|
|
||||||
considered stable. All users of i3 are strongly encouraged to upgrade.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
A big change with this release is (again) a new parser for commands. You might
|
|
||||||
get the impression that we like rewriting parsers, but check the commit message
|
|
||||||
of commit a532f5a for rationale on this decision.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
A more visible change to users is the introduction of a scratchpad command:
|
|
||||||
This is useful to have a permanent editor session ready whenever you need it.
|
|
||||||
Or your music player. Or email client? Or $programming-language REPL? Give it a
|
|
||||||
try!
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Also, you are finally able to move workspaces between the different outputs if
|
|
||||||
you are using multiple monitors. You can rename workspaces on the fly and
|
|
||||||
identify named workspaces by their number. So you can rename "1: www" to "1:
|
|
||||||
code" with one simple rename command and all your keybindings will still work.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
A subtle indicator of the split state of containers has been introduced: In
|
|
||||||
case you are in a split container with precisely one window (a situation which
|
|
||||||
you could not recognize by looking at your screen previously), i3 will
|
|
||||||
highlight the bottom/right border of the split container in a lighter blue.
|
|
||||||
This should reduce confusion about whether you are dealing with a split
|
|
||||||
container or not.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
And finally, i3bar now supports a JSON input protocol, so that with a
|
|
||||||
subsequent release of i3status, you will be able to use colors in your bar!

┌──────────────────────────────┐
|
|
||||||
│ Release notes for i3 v4.3 │
|
|
||||||
└──────────────────────────────┘
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This is the i3 v4.3. This version is considered stable. All users of i3 are
|
|
||||||
strongly encouraged to upgrade.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
One rather visible change is that commands which could not be parsed properly
|
|
||||||
will now spawn i3-nagbar. In case you used "bindsym $mod+x firefox" (and
|
|
||||||
forgot the "exec" keyword) or you made a typo in your config, you will now
|
|
||||||
notice that :).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We also made the orientation (horizontal/vertical) part of the layout
|
|
||||||
mechanism: Before, we got the default layout and you could change
|
|
||||||
orientation. Now, there are two new layouts "splitv" and "splith", which
|
|
||||||
replace the default layout. The "split h" and "split v" commands continue to
|
|
||||||
work as before, they split the current container and you will end up in a
|
|
||||||
split container with layout splith (after "split h") or splitv (after
|
|
||||||
"split v").
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To change a splith container into a splitv container, use either "layout
|
|
||||||
splitv" or "layout toggle split". The latter command is used in the
|
|
||||||
default config as mod+e (formerly "layout default"). In case you have
|
|
||||||
"layout default" in your config file, it is recommended to just replace
|
|
||||||
it by "layout toggle split", which will work as "layout default" did
|
|
||||||
before when pressing it once, but toggle between horizontal/vertical
|
|
||||||
when pressing it repeatedly.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The rationale behind this change is that it’s cleaner to have all
|
|
||||||
parameters that influence how windows are rendered in the layout itself
|
|
||||||
rather than having one special layout in combination with an additional
|
|
||||||
orientation. This enables us to change existing split containers in all
|
|
||||||
cases without breaking existing features (see ticket #464). Also, users
|
|
||||||
should feel more confident about whether they are actually splitting or
|
|
||||||
just changing an existing split container now.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
As a nice side-effect, this commit brings back the "layout toggle"
|
|
||||||
feature we once had in i3 v3 (see the userguide).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Another very important change is that we now support pango for rendering text.
|
|
||||||
The default is still to use misc-fixed (X core fonts), but you can use a font
|
|
||||||
specification starting with "xft:" now, such as "xft:DejaVu Sans Mono 10" and
|
|
||||||
i3 will use pango. The sole motivation for this is NOT to have fancier window
|
|
||||||
decorations, but to support fonts which have more glyphs (think Japanese for
|
|
||||||
example) and to support right-to-left rendering (open http://www.ftpal.net/
|
|
||||||
for an example). Supporting users from all over the planet is important, and
|
|
||||||
as such I would strongly advise distribution packagers to leave pango support
|
|
||||||
enabled. In case you are working on a very low-spec embedded device, it is
|
|
||||||
easy enough to disable pango support, see common.mk.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Also, the 'layout' command now always works on the parent split container. This
|
|
||||||
allows you to do things like this:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
for_window [class="XTerm"] layout tabbed
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
When you now open XTerm on an empty workspace, the whole workspace will be
|
|
||||||
set to tabbed. In case you want to open XTerm in its own tabbed split
|
|
||||||
container, you need to split before:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
for_window [class="XTerm"] split v, layout tabbed
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Furthermore, we decided to entirely ignore resize increment size hints for
|
|
||||||
tiling windows. These are set by terminal emulators (such as urxvt,
|
|
||||||
gnome-terminal, …) and specify that the window may only be resized in
|
|
||||||
multiples of the specified size. All terminal emulators cope with the window
|
|
||||||
manager ignoring these hints and by doing so, they can decide what to do with
|
|
||||||
the lost space (that is, pseudo-transparency now works without black bars in
|
|
||||||
urxvt).

||||||
• IPC: implement GET_VERSION to find out the i3 version
|
|
||||||
• i3-dump-log now comes with a massively more helpful error message that
|
|
||||||
should cover all the use cases.
|
|
||||||
• 'workspace number <number>' now opens a new workspace
|

|
|
||||||
• replace loglevels by a global debug logging
|
|
||||||
• make: new makefile layout
|
|

KeyPress event, but on the KeyRelease event (useful for import(1) or
|
|
||||||
xdotool(1)).
|
|
||||||
• The signalhandler does not offer you to exit i3 anymore. Instead, there is

│ Release notes for i3 v4.4 │

|

└──────────────────────────────┘
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This is the i3 v4.4. This version is considered stable. All users of i3 are
|
|
||||||
strongly encouraged to upgrade.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
An important under-the-hood change is that we now use the same parser
|
|
||||||
infrastructure for the configuration file as we do for the commands. This
|
|
||||||
makes maintenance and contributions easier and lets us finally escape the
|
|
||||||
insanity that is bison/flex.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
In case there is a bug and your existing config does not work as expected
|
|
||||||
anymore, try using the --force-old-config-parser-v4.4-only flag when starting
|
|
||||||
i3 and please report a bug. This option will only be present in v4.4, so if
|
|
||||||
you don’t report a bug, you are willingly breaking your own config file.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Apart from that, there have been several little fixes and additions which make
|
|
||||||
i3 pay more attention to detail, particularly in the floating window area of
|
|
||||||
the code. See the changes/bugfixes list for more information.

└──────────────────────────────┘
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This is the i3 v4.5. This version is considered stable. All users of i3 are
|
|
||||||
strongly encouraged to upgrade.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Most of the changes are cleanups and bugfixes. Due to cleanups, i3 no longer
|
|
||||||
depends on flex/bison at all. Furthermore, libev ≥ 4 is now a hard dependency
|
|
||||||
(libev < 4 is not supported anymore).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
One important change to note is that moving windows to a different output will
|
|
||||||
no longer move focus to that output. If you want to have the old behavior,
|
|
||||||
modify the keybindings for moving in your configfile like this:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
bindsym $mod+Shift+1 move workspace 1; workspace 1

This is the i3 v4.5.1, a bugfix release. This version is considered stable. All
|
|
||||||
users of i3 are strongly encouraged to upgrade.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This release fixes an i3 lockup when dragging floating windows from one monitor
|
|
||||||
to another.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Furthermore, in the release process for v4.5, there was a human error leading
|
|
||||||
to i3 thinking that v4.5 is a debug version, therefore allocating 25 MB of
|
|
||||||
shared memory logging ringbuffer by default.

|

|

This is the i3 v4.6. This version is considered stable. All users of i3 are
|
|
||||||
strongly encouraged to upgrade.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The main improvement of this release is increased compatibility. We made a few
|
|
||||||
tiny code changes and hope that Mathematica and Java applications will work
|
|
||||||
better with i3 now. i3-nagbar should work with more terminal emulators than
|
|
||||||
before.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
For debugging, the shmlog and debuglog commands can be sent via IPC to enable
|
|
||||||
shared memory logging while i3 is running. For the large number of users using
|
|
||||||
a release version (i.e. a version without shared memory logging by default),
|
|
||||||
this will make debugging their issues much simpler.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
i3bar now supports click events and can be hidden/shown via an i3 IPC command.

This is the i3 v4.7. This version is considered stable. All users of i3 are
|
|
||||||
strongly encouraged to upgrade.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This release features a number of documentation improvements, better error
|
|
||||||
messages in various places, better tray compatibility in i3bar, and a number of
|
|
||||||
bugfixes.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Relevant from a packaging point of view is that we have switched to the new
|
|
||||||
xcb-util-cursor library to get rid of libXcursor. The last remaining big piece
|
|
||||||
of Xlib code now is XKB, which we may be able to tackle in upcoming releases
|
|
||||||
thanks to the just released libxcb 1.10.
