In tabbed mode, the available width (say 1280) is divided by the amount
of child containers (say 3). Before this commit, we just truncated the
result and would end up with 426 + 426 + 426 = 1278 pixels that we
render to. Now we render a bit too much, but that’ll at least not give
us graphics corruption on any side :).
fixes#791
When the workspace layout (formerly orientation) was forced to change
due to a move command, the split container we created was not marked as
split = true, which caused tree_flatten() to errnously kill the contents
of it and thus one window ended up unmanaged.
Also, the logic in tree_flatten() was inverted due to commit de94f6da.
fixes#790
This changes the fact that Firefox would not be launched on the correct
workspace because it marked the startup sequence as completed *before*
actually mapping all of its windows.
To test this, go to workspace 3 and run this command in a terminal:
i3-msg 'exec iceweasel; workspace 4'
That will make i3 start iceweasel (and create a proper startup
notification context for it), then immediately switch to workspace 4
(before iceweasel could possibly start).
The iceweasel window(s) should appear on workspace 3.
Basically, this is the same fix as commit 914ca6cf :-/. Once again, we
called exit() instead of _exit(), but this time it lead to a kill(0,
SIGTERM), effectively killing all processes in the i3 process group,
including i3 itself. The cause for the kill(0) is that nagbar_pid is set
to 0 by fork(), signaling we’re in the child process. The cleanup
handler only checks for nagbar_pid being -1 as a special value, however.
Previously, in case 'layout stacked' (for example) had been called
interactively, con_set_layout would be called with focused->parent,
while with for_window, it’d be called on the actual matching container.
This difference in behavior was the cause for the inability to use
'for_window [class="XTerm"] layout tabbed', which now works \o/, but
more on that below.
The change also allows us to handle the case of the user selecting a
CT_WORKSPACE container properly, that is, by using the special case and
creating a new split container on the workspace which gets all the
contents, but a new layout.
Now, before you are enthusiastic about the change and try to use
for_window magic in your config file, keep in mind: The 'layout' command
acts on the parent split container. That is, when using a line such as
this one:
for_window [class="XTerm"] layout tabbed
…and opening an XTerm when on a workspace with one single other window,
the whole workspace will be set tabbed (just as previously when you
opened an XTerm and sent 'layout tabbed' manually).
Therefore, to open XTerm in its own tabbed split container, you need to
split before:
for_window [class="XTerm"] split v, layout tabbed
The comma here is important! It says that the second command should not
be treated as an entirely unrelated command, but it should also relate
the matching window (while it does work with a ';', that is prone to
race-conditions and should be avoided).
fixes#358
When you have a tabbed container which has had more than one container
but currently has precisely one container, there was a bit of flickering
when switching workspaces occasionally. This commit fixes it by properly
setting the height of the deco_rect (and thus the X11 window) to not
make the old window contents show up for a minimum period of time.
fixes#777
This fixes a compatibility issue with gnome-terminal and xfce’s
terminal, where fullscreening would lead to moving the window and not
displaying the contents properly.
fixes#788
When resizing floating windows, changing the height was not correctly
handled. This commit fixes that and adds testcases for shrinking and
growing the width and height of floating windows.
To automagically do the right thing when rotating monitors with regards
to splith/splitv layout (depending on width/height of the monitor), we
change the orientation of existing workspaces and the first child.
If that first child happens to be a stacked/tabbed con, we cannot change
the layout unconditionally (previously, the orientation was not in the
layout, so we never noticed this problem).
fixes#768
The latter is actually wrong. For example, when running i3
--moreversion, it will print $(pwd)/i3 instead of $(which i3). In my
previous tests, this coincidentally was the same.
This changes the SHM log format, it doesn’t use 0-bytes to separate
entries anymore. Instead of using lots of printf() calls in i3-dump-log,
we now do precisely one big write().
So, to be clear: i3-dump-log and i3 both need to be upgraded.
Mismatching versions will lead to garbage output (no crashes of i3, just
garbage output).
The -f flag uses an inter-process pthread_cond_t in the shared memory
header to broadcast the arrival of new messages to all i3-dump-log
processes. This internally uses futexes and thus doesn’t even mean a
kernel call in most cases. inter-process pthread_cond_ts require NPTL
(the Native Posix Thread Library, introduce in Linux 2.6).
From the source:
When starting i3 initially (and after each change to the connected
outputs), this function fixes the resolution of the __i3
pseudo-output. When that resolution is not set to a function which
shares a common divisor with every active output’s resolution,
floating point calculation errors will lead to the scratchpad window
moving when shown repeatedly.
fixes#632
Since we advertise _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW support (but only set the
corresponding atom currently), it makes sense to also support the
ClientMessage. Apps such as Gajim use it to set focus to the roster
window when clicking on the tray icon for example.
fixes#767
Compilers store the path with which they were called in the debug
symbols. Therefore, this will make backtraces show something like
../i3-4.2/src/main.c instead of src/main.c.

This is useful for third-party scripts which require certain features
and want to error out cleanly when they are run with an old i3 version.
Additionally, i3 --version might be different from what’s actually
running (an old version of the binary), so i3-msg -t get_version will be
the best way to figure out the i3 version you are actually running from
this commit on.
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 :).
