Currently when renaming outputs, an output assignment of "left" will
cause the workspace to move left. Treat this assignment as a proper name
instead (even though it is unlikely an output will be named "left").
Move logic for determining output to move to out of
`workspace_move_to_output`
Add test for ignoring direcionality during rename.
Fixes#3208.
Sending the sync command via IPC ensures pending IPC messages are handled by i3
before the sync response is read. This is rarely useful for direct IPC
connections to i3, but becomes useful when synchronizing with i3bar, which might
have pending IPC messages in response to button clicks.
_NET_WM_STATE_FOCUSED is set on _NET_WM_STATE to indicate that the
window is focused. It must be set when the window is newly focused and
removed once the window no longer has focus.
> _NET_WM_STATE_FOCUSED indicates whether the window's decorations are
> drawn in an active state. Clients MUST regard it as a read-only hint.
> It cannot be set at map time or changed via a _NET_WM_STATE client

For example, this is used by GTK applications to show the decoration in
an active or inactive state. This change can be tested by opening a GTK
application (like evince), focusing the window and unfocusing the
window, and observing a change in the window decorations.
Fixes#2273
For command:
move window to [absolute] position X px Y px
if the optional keyword 'absolute' is provided the end result is the
same even though it is implemented differently. Only difference is that
with absolute the floating window can move completely outside of any
output.
This commit removes the 'method' argument and only keeps the sane
implementation.
This deals with (admittedly somewhat misbehaving) clients which
use XSetInputFocus to take focus, but then don't properly restore
focus. This has been observed with TK apps, but also, e.g., Steam.

i3bar's handle_button is modified to also handle XCB_BUTTON_RELEASE
events. During these button release events, only custom commands are
checked to avoid sending multiple workspace ipc messages.
The way this patch is implemented will allow to assign a custom command
for both the press and release of the same button:
bar {
...
bindsym buttonX exec command1
bindsym --release buttonX exec command2
}
Fixes#3068.
stbuf.st_size is of type off_t, which the standard defines as “extended signed
integral type”¹, and for which there is no correct printf format string. Hence,
we need to cast it into a hopefully-large-enough type (ugh) and use the
corresponding format string. In our case, int64_t should do it, as config files
really shouldn’t be anywhere close to those numbers.

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.
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
clickable links to the corresponding reply type.
Authors of downstream IPC libraries are encouraged to keep the old name around
so as to not break existing code, but mark it as deprecated.
Makes "assign [<criteria>] workspace number <number>" work in the same
manner as "move to workspace number <number>" instead of assigning the
window to a workspace named "number <number>".
config.spec is modified to expect a 'number' string and an extra
argument is used in cfg_assign.
For workspaces that don't exist yet, workspace_get is used as a
fallback. This also allows the user to assign to "<number> <workspace>"
eg "2: work" and the full name will be used if workspace number 2
doesn't exist yet.
Fixes#2590.
This commit also introduces slurp() which reads a file in its entirety. Using
this function instead of doing IO in the functions in load_layout.c again and
again makes the code cleaner (fixing at least two memory leaks) and avoids
re-reading the same file 3 times.

Currently, only one name is ever added, and only the first name is
ever accessed; actually using the capability to store and access
multiple names comes in the following commits.
Currently simply returns output->name, but this will make it easier to
change how output names are stored in the following commits.
Also replace reading output->name with invocations of
output_primary_name. Code which writes output->name is unchanged. Done
using a mostly mechanical replacement of output->name to
output_primary_name(output).
This introduces memory usage by one copy of the config file, which is an
acceptable trade-off for being able to easily revert data loss.
The default config is 6KB, user configs will be in the same ballpark.

This introduces the flag --exclude-titlebar for mouse bindings which

This event is triggered when the connection to the ipc is about to
shutdown because of a user action such as with a `restart` or `exit`
command. The `change` field indicates why the ipc is shutting down. It
can be either "restart" or "exit".

This commit is a rewrite of the popup dialogs used when i3 crashes. We now
use our draw_util suite and both properly react to EXPOSE events and clean
up the windows when the handler exits.
As a side-effect, this fixes#2422
This commit introduces proper support for the minimum size on floating
windows by ensuring that it is respected during mapping, later changes as
well as resizes.
Furthermore, this commit fixes minor issues with how the hints are handled

This comes with the intentionally undocumented --disable-randr15 command
line flag and disable-randr15 configuration directive. We will add
documentation before the release if and only if it turns out that users
actually need to use this flag in their setups. Ideally, nobody would
need to use the flag and everything would just keep working, but it’s
better to be safe than sorry.

https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=30353 was filed for the unintended
line break between in e.g. “TAILQ_ENTRY(foo)\nbar;”.
Until that’s fixed or a workaround is known, we’ll live with line
breaks. To make it a bit easier for readers to see what’s going on, I
added extra line breaks around each such struct member/variable
definition, so that they at least visually are a single unit.
fixes#2174
Including config.h is necessary to get e.g. the _GNU_SOURCE define and
any other definitions that autoconf declares. Hence, config.h needs to
be included as the first header in each file.
This is done either via:
1. Including "common.h" (i3bar)
2. Including "libi3.h"
3. Including "all.h" (i3)
4. Including <config.h> directly
Also remove now-unused I3__FILE__, add copyright/license statement
where missing and switch include/all.h to #pragma once.
We strive to avoid conditional compilation in i3 as much as possible.
cairo and pangocairo have been around long enough in the versions that
we need that it’s time to unconditionally depend on them.
Also update DEPENDS with the last-known-good-versions while at it.
This commit correctly handles colormaps by
* Using the static default colormap we determine on startup if the
con has the corresponding depth. This avoids creating pointless
colormaps.
* Not freeing the default colormap to not have stray colormaps on
containers. This fixes an issue with certain programs such as xwd.
* Creating a custom colormap when necessary and freeing it when the
container is killed.
fixes#2435
since OpenBSD pthread does not support pthread_condattr_setpshared().
This patch could also stay in the OpenBSD ports tree or depend on a
configure test macro rather than defined __OpenBSD__.
Use case:
* When managing multiple terminals in a workspace, the borders makes it easier
to know where the focus is, but when there is only one it's obvious where the
focus is.
* When there's only a web browser for example, the borders are actually counter-
productive since it makes clicking a side scrollbar or a tab a bit harder (if I
smash my cursor to the side or the top of the workspace, I have to move it in
the other direction by just a few pixels to be able to grab it)
Behaviour:
* No borders when there's a single window in a workspace
* Borders when there are multiple windows in a workspace
fixes#2188
This patch introduces a new 'set_from_resource' config directive which
allows defining a variable by retrieving its value from the X resource
database. This avoids having to configure a color scheme in multiple
files. The directive takes an additional fallback value which is used
in case the resource cannot be found or during config validation where
no X connection is available.
Furthermore, this patch includes the following changes:
- If the same variable is defined twice, we now properly overwrite the
value of the assignment rather than inserting two variable definitions
with the same key.
- We now depend on xcb-util-xrm to query the resource.
- Increase the buffer size for variable / resource assignments.
fixes#2130
If an output is disabled during a restart, for example because a binding
such as
bindsym $mod+Shift+r exec "xrandr --auto", restart
is used, it can happen that we first write the layout to disk and only
then receive the RandR change events. This leads to a situation where
the restored tree will contain these outputs, but the restarted i3
process will not receive the RandR events, thus the internal output in i3
is marked disabled.
This patch finds these cases after a restart and force-disables the
affected outputs.
fixes#2326
This code has been neutralized for many years now and served no purpose
other than cluttering up the code. We obviously don't need it and it's
out of date anyway.
If there's ever any reason to restore (parts of) it, we have git for
that. But we don't need to keep commented out code around.
Previously we counted the number of (direct) children of the workspace to
decide whether no_focus should be applied or not. However, this doesn't
work correctly if there's a single container with multiple windows on the
workspace.
This patch correctly counts all windows on the workspace.
fixes#2292
This is a followup to #2049. While we had fixed that bug by only grabbing
buttons 4 and 5 if there is a whole-window binding for that button, this
did not consider buttons higher than 5 as found on many mice.
Therefore, we now ditch the special handling for scrollwheel buttons and
instead do the same for all buttons higher than 3.
fixes#2271
With this change, multi-monitor presentations (e.g. as implemented by
LibreOffice Impress) work out of the box. Previously, one had to move
the presentation windows to the right outputs oneself.
This patch introduces a proprietary atom I3_FLOATING_WINDOW which will be
set and maintained for floating windows and removed on tiling containers.
This allows users to select on this atom, e.g., in their compositor
configuration or in utility scripts (without using the IPC).
fixes#2223
Manually updating a magic number doesn’t work in the long run.
With this change, the number of atoms contained in
include/atoms_NET_SUPPORTED.xmacro is used.

Until now, only the config directive for borders (new_window,
new_float) respected the DPI setting (using logical_px). This
patch makes sure we also do so for runtime "border" commands.
fixes#2202
We now build a docker base container based on debian sid (where the very
latest packages are available). That base container is updated once a
month, or whenever travis-build.Dockerfile or debian/control change, but
re-used for subsequent travis runs. While the initial build might take
up to 15 minutes, subsequent builds typically run in a minute or two.
All the different steps that we run on travis are now factored into
separate scripts in the travis/ directory.
Switching to docker should also help with issue #2174.
We already claim _NET_WM_DESKTOP support in _NET_SUPPORTED since around 2009,
but haven't actually done anything with it. However, especially pagers like
gnome-panel rely on this property to be updated and many tools, like GTK, want
to use the corresponding client messages to make a window sticky, move it
around etc.
This patch implements full support according to the EWMH spec. This means:
* We set the property on all windows when managing it.
* We keep the property updated on all windows at all times.
* We read and respect the property upon managing a window if it was set before
mapping the window.
* We react to client messages for it.
* We remove the property on withdrawn windows.
Note that the special value 0xFFFFFFFF, according to the spec, means that the
window shall be shown on all workspaces. We do this by making it sticky and
float it. This shows it on all workspaces at least on the output it is on.
Furthermore, the spec gives us the freedom to ignore _NET_WM_DESKTOP when
managing a window if we have good reason to. In our case, we give window
swallowing a higher priority since the user would likely expect that and we
want to keep placeholder windows only around for as long as we have to.
However, we do prioritize this property over, for example, startup
notifications.
