With this commit, the "default" layout is replaced by the splith and
splitv layouts. splith is equivalent to default with orientation
horizontal and splitv is equivalent to default with orientation
vertical.
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+l (previously "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 commit is that it’s cleaner to have all
parameters that influence how windows are rendered in the layout itself
rather than having a special parameter in combination with only one
layout. 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 version 3 (see the userguide).
AFAIK, it is safe to use in-place restart to upgrade into versions
after this commit (switching to an older version will break your layout,
though).
Fixes#464
e.g. pressing Mod1+x when having the following in your configfile:
bindsym Mod1+x some invalid command
will lead to an i3-nagbar instance popping up, offering you to view the
error log (which will contain parser errors from this commit on).
This workaround is necessary for terminal emulators which parse -e in a
different way: some accept a list of arguments (-e command arg1 arg2 …),
some accept only one argument (-e "command arg1 arg2 …"). Therefore, we
just create a script and pass that as the one and only argument.
CPPFLGES, CFLAGS and LDFLAGS should be user variables
We now provide default flags but use I3_*FLAGS flags for our own needed
flags
Also reoder lib flags a bit
In certain situations (when you have a h-split within a h-split) you
couldn’t properly resize previously. This commit makes the resize
command properly traverse up the containers.
fixes#754
This fixes a race condition when running the tests. I think that the X11
server has more time to clean up the resources when we do an explicit
disconnect. The symptom I was seeing was that sometimes, i3 couldn’t
become the window manager on one of the Xdummy instances.
Depending on the memory layout, it could happen that bind->command was
exchanged with something else while the parser still accessed it.
Therefore, we now copy the command and let the parser use that copy.
When moving window from other (not current) workspace to another
workspace with criteria we should stay on current workspace.
And we should exit early when criteria was specified but didn't
match any window.
This is now restricted according to the already defined fullscreen
focus constraints. Test case 157 was removed, as we don't prevent
level up/down in fullscreen anymore. Those commands are properly
tested in fullscreen by test case 156.
Fixes: #612
Basically, a focus change can't escape a fullscreen container. The
only exception is per-output fullscreen containers, as you should
be able to focus a container in a different workspace in this case.
This is an improvement on 4eab046e, now considering the difference
between global and per-output fullscreen and taking the tree
structure into account to determine what escaping the fullscreen
container means. It only affects targeted focus commands in the
form "for_window [...] focus", but it lays the foundation for
forthcoming fixes to all other focus commands.
If the target is in a different workspace, there's no reason why
we wouldn't allow the user to focus it. We already allow this when
focusing a workspace, for example.
calling workspace by number now also checks for switching back and forth
and creates a new workspace if no workspace starting with that number is
found
also removed the obsolete tree_render() in favor of setting
cmd_output->needs_tree_render to true
When calculating coordinates we should multiply at first otherwise
we lose precision when i3 is compiled without sse2 support.
The following code prints "Res1: 348 Res2: 349" when compiled with
-O0 -mno-sse2 and "Res1: 349 Res2: 349" with -O0 -msee2.
Note that -msse2 is default flag on 64bit OSes.
int main() {
double a = 349.0 / 768;
double b = 349.0 * 768;
int res1 = a * 768;
int res2 = b / 768;
printf("Res1: %d Res2: %d\n", res1, res2);
return 0;
}
Thanks guys for helping me to hunt down this one.

The C compiler will handle (void) as "no arguments" and () as "variadic
function" (equivalent to (...)) which might lead to subtle errors, such
as the one which was fixed with commit 0ea64ae4.
This fixes focus problems with Eclipse. Apparently, Eclipse waits for getting
notified about the focus, and since it used non-managed windows, i3 didn’t care
to update the focus.
Fixes: #621, #675
Fixes: #668
Calling tree_close with dont_kill_parent=true will avoid it from closing the
workspace if it’s empty (and it’s temporarily empty, because 'floating disable'
detaches, then re-attaches the window).
Initially I thought using the second precision time() function is good enough,
but to make t/113-urgent.t considerably faster (>2s vs. 0.08s), we put in a
little more effort and use gettimeofday. Otherwise, this test blocks the whole
testsuite from completing much faster on modern machines :).
This change has two implications:
1) tree_render() will now be called precisely once for input which consists of
multiple commands (like "focus left; focus right"). Also, the caller of
parse_command() has to call it. This makes us able to fix tickets such as
ticket #608 (where multiple tree_render() calls are noticable).
2) The output of a command is now a JSON array of return values of the
individual subcommands. In the case of "focus left; focus right", this is:
[{"success":true}, {"success":true}]
While this is incompatible with what i3 returned before, the return value of
commands was undocumented and therefore not subject to our API stability.
You need to specify the --enable-32bit-visual flag when starting i3. This is
done because everything feels sluggish on my system when using a 32 bit visual
instead of a 24 bit visual. Fast > fancy.
Fixes floating containers seemingly showing up in the wrong
workspace after moving workspaces containing floating containers.
We must *always* fix the coordinates of floating containers when
moving workspaces across outputs. That's because the coordinates
of floating containers are *not* relative to the workspaces.
Currently it supports the following options:
"oldest": match the first window that triggered an urgent event
"latest": match the last window that triggered an urgent event
