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.

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
In most cases this won't make a difference, but consider the following
scenario:
* Some application acquires input focus on its own (which the window manager
is not involved in, so it will "always" work).
* Before the FocusIn / FocusOut events are processed by i3, the
workflow to push X changes is run, resulting in xcb_set_input_focus()
being called.
Using XCB_CURRENT_TIME, this means i3 will "win" and override the focus,
even though it simply wasn't aware (yet) that focus had already been taken
over by someone else. When processing the FocusIn / FocusOut events, i3
assumes that the focus is already set which results in a broken focus
state as i3 assumes some container has the input focus when it doesn't.
With the new behavior, i3's attempt to set the input focus will fail if
the FocusIn / FocusOut events have not yet processed. Once they are processed,
the focus state will be automatically corrected.
fixes#2322
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out of date anyway.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.
This commit removes the title indentation in certain nested container
situations. The behavior was considered broken as it didn't seem to
make sense and it was unclear why this was introduced.
Given that nobody on i3-discuss@ complained about removing this logic
within two weeks, we are now removing it to make the title rendering
code a little less complex.
fixes#2247
Since we don't actually stop drawing a title (or marks) with the
distance of the border width on the right side, but instead with
a hard-coded two pixel distance, we can only redraw that much of
the border without potentiall cutting off text.

Use `uintptr_t` to cast the con id to int instead of `long int`. This
type is guaranteed to hold the pointer as an int regardless of platform.
fixes#2283
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.
If a user reloads the config while in some binding mode, the binding mode
will revert to the default, but no event will ever be fired, causing a
broken i3bar mode display.
This patch explicitly reverts to the default binding mode before reloading
the config. We reload rather than switch to the binding mode after having
reloaded the config because there's no guarantee that mode will even still
exist.
fixes#2228
This patch correctly determines the previously focused workspace on the
target output when moving a workspace to another output. Before, we used
nodes_head for this, which will not actually return the previously focused
workspace, but just the first workspace on that output. Hence, we now use
focus_head instead.
This bug was introduced all the way back in 1e143fea when the feature of
moving workspaces to another output was first implemented.
fixes#2229
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.
fixes#2230
This is essentially a revert of daf00a9 which introduced a mechanism
to float workspace containers by wrapping all children into a new
container and floating it.
This caused a bug and there's no good reason (anymore) to allow doing
this in the first place as we don't support floating nested containers.
fixes#2166
This allows "modifier none" (and "modifier off") for the bar config
in order to disable the modifier key altogether. This is useful
for users who use a different approach to hiding / showing the bar,
e.g., a custom keybind that involved multiple keys or scripts.
fixes#2208
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.
Ignoring the focus leads to a broken focus if the pointer is, e.g.,
over i3bar at the point in time the window is moved by the client
message. It also causes i3bar's workspace display to break.
Thanks to GermainZ for reporting.
We don't actually need to grab the buttons to fix#2097, but doing so
will cause a freeze due to unreleased events.
We partially revert 6f12f02 which avoids the freeze, but doesn't break
functionality.

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.

pledges for i3:
"stdio rpath unix" for talking to the i3 socket usually in /tmp
"proc exec" for executing programs
"wpath cpath" are needed for the restart-in-place functionality
To make this work, @semarie pointed out that it is sufficient to ensure
that we get physical_mem_bytes only once, namely in init_logging().
pledges for i3-msg:
"stdio rpath unix" are needed for talking to the i3-socket
pledges for i3-nagbar
"rpath getpw" to find the home directory
"wpath cpath" to write the script
"proc exec" to execute the script
This disables the default leak-check-on-exit behavior which reports a
bunch of leaks that are only leaks while exiting, at which point they
don’t matter, because the operating system will clean up the memory our
process used.
