Quote from the source:
When the container type is CT_WORKSPACE, the user wants to change the
whole workspace into stacked/tabbed mode. To do this and still allow
intuitive operations (like level-up and then opening a new window), we
need to create a new split container. */
As initial may be set to true again after initializing the window, we need to
ensure that it is properly cleared. Otherwise, this leads to ghost windows when
unmapping (such as the Xpdf about dialog) due to i3 issuing MapWindow after an
Unmap happened but before i3 actually received/handled the UnmapNotify.
Numbered workspaces (workspaces with a name containing only digits) will be
inserted in the correct order now. Named workspaces are always sorted after
numbered workspaces and in the order of creation.
This fixes the bug which caused floating windows to be visible even when
switching to a different workspace.
Instead of ignoring a specific sequence, we now set an ignore_unmap counter for
each container. (So, should containers be closed too early or stay open even if
they should be closed, we probably need to have a closer look at the counter.
At the moment, it is increased by one on reparenting and unmapping (for
workspace changes) and decremented by one on each UnmapNotify event).
This system is better because a sequence does not describe a single unmap or
reparent request but a request to X11 on the network layer -- which can contain
multiple requests.
You can use this in testcases to mark specific sections:
$i3->command('nop before trying to crash')->recv;
leads to the following output in the i3 logfile:
-------------------------------------------------
NOP: before trying to crash
-------------------------------------------------
This is intuitive for the user as he can use the left/right keys to switch.
Also, we need to nail the orientation because you can be in either vertical or
horizontal mode when you enter the tabbed layout (like with the stacking
layout).
With the polygon, when using pidgin, having the buddy list in the middle of the
screen, 200 px width, full screen high, then opening the manage accounts
window, the decorations of the buddy list were visible on the accounts window.
