This patch creates all necessary windows for i3bar with 32-bit visuals if available.
It also introduces the possibility to define RGBA colors (next to RGB colors), which
allows the user to set the opacity of any color. This requires running a compositor.
With this patch we also start supporting _NET_SYSTEM_TRAY_VISUAL, which is necessary
for the tray icons so they create the tray window with the correct depth and visual.
1). See the issue #1926. For example, the second keybinding is not detected as a duplicate:
bindcode Mod4+24 sticky toggle
bindsym Mod4+q focus parent
2). To fix it, check duplicated bindings when translating the keysym to keycodes.
This fixes a bug I introduced in #1921. When restarting i3 in place a
stray workspace was created on the root_output during restart. On first
start, this workspace would have been moved to the first real and empty
output.
However, this does not produce the desired result during restarts when
workspaces are alread present on all real outputs. The stray workspace would
still be added to the first real output which already contains some
workspaces. Thus, adding a new empty workspace to it.
Fix this by delaying creation of the root output's workspace until it is
known whether the output is active or not.
Fixes#1940
This patch introduces a root output covering the root window. It is used
in two cases:
1. RandR is not available. In this case, the previous behaviour of
creating a single output covering the root window is preserved.
2. RandR is available, but there is no active output. In this case,
the root output is enabled and will be the only active output.
If any RandR output becomes available, the root output will be
disabled again. Existing mechanisms for migrating workspaces will
just work without modification.
I've carefully slipped in a global variable `Output root_output` representing
that output.
Fixes#926 and #1489
This commit also reworks the way focusing sticky windows is prevented by not focusing them temporarily at all, but preventing the focus in the first place.
If no other window is available on the active workspace, we now select the EWMH support window (used to indicate that an EWMH-compliant window manager is preent) as the focus window rather than the root window. The NET_WM_ACTIVE window will still be set to XCB_WINDOW_NONE to pretend that no window is actually focused.
This fixes the issue that when using the root window, a fallback mechanism in X11 takes effect which routes keyboard input to the window under the cursor, independent of whether that window has the input focus. Using the EWMH window instead, we can avoid this behavior. We cannot simply set it to XCB_WINDOW_NONE as this would discard all keyboard events, breaking keybindings.

This commit improves the translation of keysyms to keycodes by loading
keymaps using libxkbcommon-x11 and using libxkbcommon for figuring out
the keymap, depending on each keybinding’s modifiers. This way, the
upper layers of complex layouts are now usable with i3’s bindsym
directive, such as de_neo’s layer 3 and higher.
Furthermore, the commit generalizes the handling of different XKB
groups. We formerly had support only for two separate groups, the
default group 1, and group 2. While Mode_switch is only one way to
switch to group 2, we called the binding option Mode_switch. With this
commit, the new names Group1, Group2 (an alias for Mode_switch), Group3
and Group4 are introduced for configuring bindings. This is only useful
for advanced keyboard layouts, such as people loading two keyboard
layouts and switching between them (us, ru seems to be a popular
combination).
When grabbing keys, one can only specify the modifier mask, but not an
XKB state mask (or value), so we still dynamically unbind and re-bind
keys whenever the XKB group changes.
The commit was manually tested using the following i3 config:
bindsym Group4+n nop heya from group 4
bindsym Group3+n nop heya from group 3
bindsym Group2+n nop heya from group 2
bindsym n nop heya
bindsym shift+N nop explicit shift binding
bindsym shift+r nop implicit shift binding
bindcode Group2+38 nop fallback overwritten in group 2 only
bindcode 38 nop fallback
…with the following layout:
setxkbmap -layout "us,ua,ru,de" -variant ",winkeys,,neo" \
-option "grp:shift_caps_toggle,grp_led:scroll" \
-model pc104 -rules evdev
By default (xkb group 1, us layout), pressing “n” will result in the
“heya” message appearing. Pressing “a” will result in the “fallback”
message appearing. “j” is not triggered.
By pressing Shift+CapsLock you switch to the next group (xkb group 2, ua
layout). Pressing “a” will result in the “fallback overwritten in group
2 only” message, pressing “n” will still result in “heya”. “j” is not
triggered.
In the next group (xkb group 3, ru layout), pressing “a” will result in
the “fallback” message again, pressing “n” will result in “heya”,
“j” is not triggered.
In the last group (xkb group 4, de_neo layout), pressing “a” will still
result in “fallback”, pressing “n” will result in “heya”, pressing “j”
will result in “heya from group 4”.
Pressing shift+n results in “explicit shift binding”, pressing shift+r
results in “implicit shift binding”. This ensures that keysym
translation falls back to looking at non-shift keys (“r” can be used
instead of ”R”) and that the order of keybindings doesn’t play a role
(“bindsym n” does not override “bindsym shift+n”, even though it’s
specified earlier in the config).
The fallback behavior ensures use-cases such as ticket #1775 are still
covered.
Only binding keys when the X server is in the corresponding XKB group
ensures use-cases such as ticket #585 are still covered.

If the match expression is a plain number (e.g., '99'), the number of a workspace will be compared strictly. Otherwise, the match expression is taken as a regular expression and compared against the workspace's name.
This allows all of the following:
for_window [workspace=5] ...
for_window [workspace="5:foo"] ...
for_window [workspace="foo"] ...
fixes#1769
The format string set with "title_format" can contain the placeholder "%title" which will be replaced with the actual window title.
By not overwriting window->name itself, we make sure that assignment matching still works as expected.
fixes#1723
Outputs may disappear momentarily and come back later.
To prevent i3 from exit when no output is available momentarily, add a timeout delay_exit_on_zero_displays.
Introduce a config directive "show_marks [yes|no]" to en- or disable drawing marks on window decorations.
To not change the look & feel of existing configurations, the default is "no".
When a window receives a _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW message, it can steal the focus. This may not be preferable to all users.
With this directive, the user can choose from one of the following:
1) 'smart' - focus the container if its workspace is visible, otherwise set the urgency flag (default)
2) 'urgent' - always set the urgency flag, do not steal focus
3) 'focus' - always switch focus, never set the urgency hint
4) 'none' - ignore the request entirely (do not switch focus, nor set the urgency hint)
fixes#1426
This option allows toggling marks on a window without knowing whether the mark is already set or not.
It behaves as follows:
1) If the matched window has no mark, the new mark is set.
2) If the matched window has another mark, the old mark is removed and the new mark is set.
3) If the matched window already has the mark, the mark is removed.
The behavior that all non-matched windows have this mark removed is kept.

1. Add a function writeall and make swrite wrap that function. Use either writeall or swrite, depending on whether we want to exit on errors or not.
2. Fix warnings when compiling with a higher optimisation level.

This introduces a "separator_symbol" property for the i3bar configuration.
If set, the specified string will be used as a separator instead of a vertical line. Since it is an optional configuration, complete backwards compatibility is given.
fixes#1472
Add `markup` to the i3bar protocol as a block member.
This is a string that determines how the block should be parsed as
markup. "pango" indicates the block should be parsed as Pango markup.
"none" indicates the block should not be parsed as markup.
Parse text within workspace buttons and the i3bar statusline as Pango
markup. This lets people specify things like font weight, text color,
background color, font size, and font family in the text of i3bar.
fixes#1468
Add support for the _NET_WM_MOVERESIZE client message. This message
enables clients to initiate window moving or resizing. Toolkits like
Gtk3 use this message when the user drags a client-side decorated window
by its title bar. When Gtk detects that the window manager does not
support this client message, it uses a slow fallback implementation.
fixes#1432
When loading a new font with `load_font`, free the previously loaded
font with `free_font`.
If no font is loaded, `free_font` will simply return (instead of
crashing because of a double free).
Add the `--whole-window` switch for mouse bindings. This switch controls
what part of the container the pointer must be over to trigger a mouse
binding. The default is to only trigger mouse bindings over the
titlebars. With this switch, a mouse binding will be triggered over the
main part of the window as well.
This is a breaking change to the previous behavior, which would trigger
a mouse binding with a modifier over any part of the window.

Since this commit:
f691a55923
the shell that is used is the system's bourne shell (/bin/sh) and the
env variable SHELL is not considered.
No logic changes.
Send the affected workspace in the "current" property for each workspace
event for any type of workspace event that affects a particular
workspace.

Rather than just toggling the fullscreen modes, allow to set them
directly with:
fullscreen enable|toggle [global]
fullscreen disable
For compatibility, retain the previous command and its toggling behavior:
fullscreen [global]

Copy the binding struct before running it and use this copy to emit the
binding event.
This fixes a crash when the command `reload` is used in a binding when
the binding event is emitted.
The binding event will be triggered when a binding is run as a result of
some a user action. The binding event has the following properties:
change: (str) Currently this will only be "run" but may be expanded in
the future. Included for consistency with other events.
binding: (map) the serialized binding
The "binding" member will have these properties:
input_type: (str) either "keyboard" or "mouse"
input_code: (int) the xcb keycode of the keyboard binding if it was
provided or the mouse button if it is a mouse binding.
symbol: (str) the string representation of the input code
command: (str) the bound command
mods: (list of str) a list of the modifiers that were pressed as string
symbols
