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
Otherwise, placeholder windows would accumulate these over restarts. The
worst part is that they don’t get dumped properly, meaning an empty
swallows specification ends up in the state, which matches any window,
so other random windows would be matched into the placeholder (e.g.
i3bar).
fixes#1502
This reverts commit cbd51ce664.
If you’ve started using this feature, I’m very sorry, but I think it’s
better to revert it entirely, as it will only cause more problems in the
future as more and more people upgrade and get bitten by this if we
didn’t revert it…
fixes#1536
When renaming a workspace on another output that moves the workspace to
the current output, the renamed workspace would be shown even though it
does not contain the focused container.
Explicitly show the focused workspace after the move. This is necessary
because `workspace_move_to_output` will show the workspace that is
moved.
Before this commit, placeholder windows had any matches that were
defined in the JSON file, _followed_ by an i3-internal match that
ensures the placeholder X11 window gets swallowed into the placeholder
i3 container.
The problem was that the first successful match was deleted, and if
users specified a criterion (title=IPython) that matched the placeholder
window itself (name=IPython), then that match is deleted and the
i3-internal match is kept. This results in the actual window the user
wants to match not being swallowed, and the placeholder window not
displaying any criteria.
fixes#1526
If the mouse cursor is hidden (by unclutter, for example), then scrolling
in the window decoration creates an event with a child
(i.e. event->child != XCB_NONE). This causes route_click() to be called
with dest=CLICK_INSIDE, which prevents scrolling through a stacked layout.
To fix this, check if a click is in the window decoration _before_
checking if the event has a child.
Not quite sure why there are so many differences. Perhaps we’ve gotten
out of the habit of running clang-format after every change.
I guess it’d be best to have a travis hook that runs clang-format for us
and reports any problems on pull requests.
input_code is a uint16_t, but xcb_keycode_t is uint8_t, meaning that
only the first byte of input_code is inspected by memmem. On
little-endian platforms, this code would have worked by accident, since
the first byte of input_code represents the 8 least significant bits.
However, on big-endian platforms the first byte is the 8 most
significant bits, which means memmem is scanning bind->translated_to
for the wrong keycode (probably 0).
In order to work correctly on big-endian and little-endian platforms,
simply typecast input_code to an xcb_keycode_t and pass that to memmem.
The observed behaviour associated with this bug is that key bindings
don't work at all. This patch has been tested on an iBook G4 running
OpenBSD -current, and key bindings work properly with this fix applied.
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
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.
fixes#1429
Since this commit:

event for any type of workspace event that affects a particular
workspace.

Rather than just toggling the fullscreen modes, allow to set them

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.
When dumping a binding, as is done during the binding event, check
symbol for NULL. If it is, dump json null. This prevents a crash when
running a binding that was configured with bindcode.
fixes#1379
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

Rectangles passed to function xcb_poly_fill_rectangle are of type
xcb_rectangle_t and defined as:
struct xcb_rectangle_t {
int16_t x;
int16_t y;
uint16_t width;
uint16_t height;
}
The rectangles for the right and lower border had a width and height,
respectively, greater than the actual border width.
Furthermore, offset the bottom border to not overlap with the right one
and, for the top border, use r->width instead of con->rect.width as with
the other borders.
When a named workspace (i.e., a workspace that has a name that does not
begin with text that can be parsed as an integer greater than or equal
to zero) is represented by the ipc as a workspace json object such as
can be queried with `i3-msg -t get_workspaces`, set the num property to
-1 instead of json null.
This is for convenience of ipc consumers using type-constrained
languages such as C which have difficulty cleanly expressing nullable
integers.
fixes#1368
Do not set focused_id to XCB_NONE in route click to force resend focus,
in some cases to an already focused window.
Sending focus again on click is not necessary and may cause problems
with certain wine or mono apps. Resending focus makes combo boxes not
work in Office 2010.
This effectively reverts commit 250577da, so in case this commit causes
any problems with Eclipse to resurface, we’ll revert this commit in
favor of 250577da (the Eclipse-related bug fix).
We're going to call parse_configuration() very early if -C is given on
the command line. Instead of the previous "only_check_config", which has
been a global variable, we now simply pass use_nagbar as false if we're
just validating.
This causes the whole parsing to run without X and of course without
starting nagbar and displaying the errors to standard out/error instead.
The return code of parse_configuration() is now a boolean which
represents whether an error occured during parsing and the programs exit
code is returned accordingly.
Although the config parser still has a lot of side-effects, we now can
parse without the need to have an XCB connection. A nicer implementation
would be to just set the new font and load it just after we're done
parsing, but to ensure we don't break functionality we just load a dummy
FONT_TYPE_NONE if XCB isn't available. The main reason for going this
route is that it's a bit difficult to test fonts in a distribution
agnostic way without bundling fonts with i3 (or Xdummy to be more
exact).

In normal border style, two horizontal lines are drawn to outline the
bar decoration. The lower line leaves a gap to the left and right to
align with the border. This gap was hardcoded to 2 pixels. Now it
matches the current border width, if any.
In stacked layout, only the bottommost bar is aligned. In tabbed layout,
no gaps are left in order to close the outline and make the notion of a
tab more clear.
Raise a window when cycling focus between floating windows with `focus
[direction]` command so that newly focused windows are rendered on top
of other windows.
This is done by placing the window last in the floating nodes of the
parent and reordering the stack so the relative order is preserved.
fixes#1322
I think this is not a good feature to have. It shouldn’t be necessary
for a tiling window manager that explicitly discourages the use of
floating windows.

i3 processes changes to WM_CLASS by updating the cached property and
running assignments. This allows the property to be used in criteria
selection.
fixes#1052
When a window becomes managed, explicitly set the current border width
to the default instead of relying on the default value of -1 to apply
the correct value.
Now that there are two different kinds of default borders, a border
width value of -1 is ambiguous. This can lead to different border widths
effectively being applied when the container changes from tiling to
floating, which is surprising behavior.
This commit extends behavior introduced in this commit to normal
borders:

Explicitly set current border width when BS_PIXEL

Users can specify a command to run when a button was pressed on i3bar to
override the default behavior. Currently only the mouse wheel buttons
are supported. This is useful for disabling the scroll wheel action or
running scripts that implement custom behavior for these buttons.
Example:
bar {
wheel_up_cmd nop
wheel_down_cmd exec ~/.i3/scripts/custom_wheel_down
}

This reverts commit b109b1b20d.
Turns out the change in behavior was unexpected by a number of users, so
let’s revert it and make those users that want this behavior configure
it explicitly.
Sorry for the back-and-forth here.
When a window becomes managed, if the config specifies a pixel border
style, explicitly set the current border width so it does not change
when the container changes from tiling to floating.

When calculating the geometry of a floating window with motif hints that
specify a border style, take into account that this window will have a
different border style when calculating its position with
floating_enable() when the window becomes managed.
A nice side effect of this is that users can override motif hints with
`new_float` config directives when they are specified other than
`normal`.

A window may become unmapped on manage when an assignment command unmaps
the window, such as moving it to the scratchpad or killing it.
This can cause i3 focus to be an unmapped window and different than X
focus which can lead to complications
fixes#1283
If a `workspace {N}` or `move to workspace {N}` command is given with N
as a plain number, the workspace of this number is selected for the
context of the command if one exists and there is no workspace with a
name that exactly matches N.
A container selected with criteria should be moved with the `move
[direction]` command, instead of this command always acting on the
focused container.
This removes our last dependency on Xlib! :)
(Okay, an Xlib dependency still comes in through other libraries that we
link against, but it’s not us. Our code is simpler by this change and
uses one less connection to X11.)
A configured mouse binding (for example `bindsym button3 kill`) runs
its command when the mouse button is pressed over parts of a container.
If the binding has no modifer, it will only run when the button is
clicked on the window titlebar.
Otherwise if the binding has a modifier, it will run over the titlebar
or any part of the contained window.

Since managing a window happens on a MapNotify (which is absent from this
list), the window cannot accept input focus, so we should not try to focus
the window at all.
Fixes an issue with xfce4-notifyd which (correctly) declines focus when
we send WM_TAKE_FOCUS, which puts i3 in a state where i3 focus and X
focus are different when a notification appears.
_NET_NUMBER_OF_DESKTOPS:

We interpret this property as the number of noninternal workspaces.
This should be the last commit that formats a big bunch of files. From
here on, whenever I merge patches, I’ll run clang-format like described
in the title.
This has multiple effects:
1) The i3 codebase is now consistently formatted. clang-format uncovered
plenty of places where inconsistent code made it into our code base.
2) When writing code, you don’t need to think or worry about our coding
style. Write it in yours, then run clang-format-3.5
3) When submitting patches, we don’t need to argue about coding style.
The basic idea is that we don’t want to care about _how_ we write the
code, but _what_ it does :). The coding style that we use is defined in
the .clang-format config file and is based on the google style, but
adapted in such a way that the number of modifications to the i3 code
base is minimal.
I consider this behavior broken and not respecting the standard, but it
happens in real life, and it’s better for i3 to not busy-loop in such a
situation :).
fixes#1259
When `focus_follows_mouse` option is on, prevent an uneeded render on
pointer enter when the con is already focused.
This pointer enter might be caused by entering a window decoration of an
already-focused container.
This extra render can cause concurrency issues when focus is set
asynchronously with WM_TAKE_FOCUS.
Add run_binding function to bindings.h.

_NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW:

This fixes a bug that would not update _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW when focus
changed to an i3 container without a window such as a branch or
workspace content container.
parse_command returns a struct that contains useful information about
the result of a command as a whole (instead of the intermediate
representation used during parsing).
parse_command now requires the caller to allocate the yajl_gen used for
generating a json reply. This is passed as the second parameter to
parse_command. If NULL is passed, no json reply will be generated.
This patch adds a new configuration option "mouse_warping [output|none]".
When mouse warping is disabled, mouse cursor does not jump to middle of current
screen when changing workspaces between multiple outputs. This introduces a
"special" cursor state, where focus is in one window and cursor on another.
Useful for eg. scrolling a web page with mouse wheel while typing into another
window on keyboard.
Workspace assignments with bare numbers assign all workspaces with that
number to the specified output.
Workspace assignment by number is overridden by workspace assignment by
name.
Change the name of structs CommandResult and ConfigResult to
CommandResultIR and ConfigResultIR to show they are an intermediate
representation used during parsing.
Floating windows already had their own border style, but the width was
the same for all windows.
The configuration directives 'new_window' and 'new_float' can now be
used simultaneously to have different border widths for floating and
tiled windows.
fixes#1244
Implement the configuration option within the bar config directive for
custom workspace numbers with the directive `strip_workspace_numbers
yes`.
This directive strips the workspace name of the number prefix and
delimiter. When the workspace name consists only of the number, it will
default to show the number.
For example:
* "2:5" -> "5"
* "4:$" -> "$"
* "8" -> "8"
This allows customization of i3bar for alternate ordering of workspaces
which has a legitimate use for alternate keyboard layouts such as
Dvorak.
fixes#1131
Allow client requests of type _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW to switch workspaces if
they indicate they are a pager. Otherwise, set the urgency hint on that

Change the primary binding accessor to `get_binding_from_xcb_event`.
This function gets a binding from a generic xcb event of type KeyPress,
KeyRelease, ButtonPress, or ButtonRelease by determining the input type
(keyboard or mouse), the modifiers pressed from the filtered event
`state`, managing the proper fall back in case mode switch is enabled,
and finally querying the bindings for a binding that matches the event.
The logic of querying keyboard bindings is not intended to be altered by
this change.
The general accessor has been slightly modified to work with mouse
bindings and made private because it is only used in bindings.c

The _NET_CLIENT_LIST property of the root window:
> These arrays contain all X Windows managed by the Window Manager.
Dock clients are not managed windows, so they should not be included in
_NET_CLIENT_LIST or _NET_CLIENT_LIST_STACKING.
Workspaces won't work properly if they start with "__", so reserve that
namespace altogether. Disallow renaming workspaces to reserved namespace
and using reserved namespace in configuration.
