Actually, WM_CLASS contains two null-terminated strings, so we cannot
use asprintf() to get its value but rather use strdup() to get both
of them. Both values are compared when a client is matched against
a wm_class/title combination (for assignments for example).
This makes it more clear that the option is meant to be a special
case (it *disables* part of the focus handling). Also, when
initializing the config data structure with zeros, it will get
initialized with the right value.
Furthermore, the config file parser now also accepts various values
which represent "true", not only numbers.
Starting from this commit, a borderless window will always be
borderless if it is the only window in a container. For example,
you can have Firefox borderless in a tabbed container and as soon
as the download manager or a viewer gets opened, the container
will be rendered like a normal tabbed container.
This solves the user-interface dilemma of borderless/1-px-border
windows inside stacked/tabbed containers, at least for this special
case. Thanks to Merovius for this suggestion.
Calculations were wrong (they simply didn’t take into account that
there is more than one border style, the code was from before we
implemented that…). We cannot directly set child_rect to the coordinates
as resize_client takes rect and calculates the child_rect, so we need
the new lines of code for this bugfix in any case (rect needs to be
updated).
This did not happen all the time. It seems like you need to have a
container which is in stacking/tabbing mode on the screen which
is being reconfigured. (when doing xrandr --output VGA1 --off for
example)
Sometimes, it may happen that the focus is "nowhere" and thus the
user is stuck. This was often the case with opera, sometimes with
pcmanfm. See ticket #118.
This fixes many problems we were having with a dynamically growing
array because of the realloc (pointers inside the area which was
allocated were no longer valid as soon as the realloc moved the
memory to another address).
Again, this is a rather big change, so expect problems and enable
core-dumps.
For example, you can create a mode which will let you resize windows
with some easy to use keys. So, instead of binding a combination
of your homerow and modifiers to resize, like this:
bind Mod4+44 resize right +10
bind Mod4+45 resize right -10
...
You can instead define a new mode:
mode "resize" {
bind 44 resize right +10
bind 45 resize right -10
...
bind 36 mode default
}
bindsym Mod4+r mode resize
So, if you press Mod4+r now, your keybindings will be set to the ones
defined in your resize mode above. You can then use your homerow
(without any other modifier) to resize the current column/row and
press enter to go back to the default mode when you are done.
Note that using this option requires you to enable the new lexer/parser
by passing the -l flag to i3 when starting.
This warning only showed up with CFLAGS=-O2.
The variables in question could never be uninitialized because
they were definitely set, have a look at the code. But anyways,
less warnings is always a good thing ;-).
Thanks to Mikael for bringing it to my mind. This change introduces
two new color classes, client.urgent and bar.urgent. By default,
urgent clients are drawn in red (colors by Atsutane).
Before this fix, you could go upwards and select the screen which
was at the rightmost because it also was the one topmost (if all
screen’s top position is equal).
Please test this! Plug in screens, unplug them, use your video projector,
change resolutions, etc.
To use the assignments, use the following syntax:
workspace <number> [screen <screen>] [name]
Where screen can be one of:
<number> (It is not provided that these numbers stay constant, so use with care)
<x>x<y> (Coordinates where the screen starts, so 1280 will be fine to match the
screen right of the main screen if your main screen is 1280 pixels
width. However, 1281 will not match)
<x>
x<y>
Some examples follow:
workspace 1 screen 0
workspace 1 screen 1
workspace 1 screen 1280x0
workspace 2 screen 1280
workspace 3 screen x0
workspace 3 screen 1 www
workspace 4 screen 0 mail
Use "bindsym" instead of "bind". You have to use the names of keys
as in xmodmap. To get a list of currently bounud symbols, use
xmodmap -pke
Technical quirk: Xlib generated MappingNotify events upon
XkbMapNotify events (from XKB, as the name says). XCB does not yet
have support for XKB, thus we need to select and handle the event
by ourself. Hopefully, this will change in the future.
