This way, when changing focus between outputs, the directional focus
command will focus the focused window within the parent container that
is next in the given direction.
Previously, the next window of the given direction was focused which is
Inconsistent with changing focus inside the same output.
Fixes#1160.
Allow enabling forced focus wrapping by specifying "focus_wrapping
force" in i3's configuration. This syntax supersedes the previous
"force_focus_wrapping yes" one, which remains available for backwards
compatibility.
This fixes a crash that occurs when disabling floating for a container
while it is being moved or resized.
@Deiz describes the problem:
> It occurs because the command that disables floating runs before the
event loop. So, the window is tiled, its floating parent is destroyed,
but then a key event is handled which causes the position/size of the
now-destroyed parent to be modified.
Fixes#1627
Applied for:
1. '[...] focus' for a floating container raises it to the top.
2. Focusing a window through a focus event raises it to the top.
Fixes#2572
canonicalize_output_name allowed the "primary" special output name to
be canonicalized, thus converting it to the name of whatever output
was the primary output at the time. This caused settings
(specifically, i3bar output and tray_output settings) to be stored as
specific output names, instead of the intended special names whose
referred output may change as the system's configuration (i.e. current
primary output) changes.
Add a check to canonicalize_output_name to return the name as-is if it
is the special name "primary".
Allow appending 'P' to the fake output specification to set the
created output's "primary" flag, to allow writing test cases that
depend on the presence of a primary output.
fake_outputs_init would unconditionally increase the string read
pointer variable (walk) by one character more than the number of
characters that have been read, to skip past the character delimiting
records (a comma). However, when the input string was not terminated
by a comma, it would cause the function to read past the null
terminator instead.
Avoid this by explicitly checking for the expected delimiter.
fake_outputs_init used a sprintf invocation with a throw-away buffer
to estimate how many characters the sscanf invocation consumed. This
was unnecessary, and also potentially incorrect, as differences
between the read and formatted strings (such as leading zeros) could
lead to fake_outputs_init to lose its track.
Instead, use the %n format specifier which allows saving the number of
characters consumed by sscanf so far. %n is part of C99.
All other message types are verbs, only our first-ever message COMMAND wasn’t.
While we’re here, also change the message type dictionary into a table with
