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.
The comment immediately following implied that this was the intended
behaviour. Not doing so means that compound commands that both move a
window to a new workspace as well as do something that depends on the
workspace's geometry (e.g. 'move position center' or 'floating enable'
on a tiled window) would use the workspace's calloc'd 0x0+0x0 geometry.
Send the affected workspace in the "current" property for each workspace
event for any type of workspace event that affects a particular
workspace.

Maintain the _NET_DESKTOP_NAMES property on the root window.

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.
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.
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.
Fixes#1209.
Make sure the command `move <direction>` properly sends the workspace
focus ipc event required for i3bar to be properly updated and redrawn.
Make `ipc_send_workspace_focus_event publicly available from ipc.h for
more flexible event sending.
Add a `current' and `old' properties to the `focus' change type,
containing the current and old workspace respectively. These additions
are not necessary anywhere else because `focus' is always triggered when
changing ws.
Previously, when you had an urgent container in a stack on some
invisible workspace (say urxvt) and you switched to it, the urgency hint
was not properly cleared.
If there is a client with an urgency hint on another workspace and
switching to this workspace would cause the urgency to be reset (by
moving the focusing to the client), delay the reset by some time. This
gives the user the chance to see it.
This commit adds the possibility to configure the urgency delay timer
duration using the 'force_display_urgency_hint' directive. Also,
documentation and a testcase was added to allow for automated checks of
the intended behavior.
fixes#482
this implements both the "move container to workspace back_and_forth" command
and movements to the same workspace when auto_back_and_forth is set.
it includes documentation and test suite additions by michael.
it also simplifies the workspace_show_by_name function (making use of
workspace_get accepting NULL pointers).
Before commit 4976fa3350, setting the
layout of workspaces to something else than the default would just mess
up the parent container of the workspace (the content container).
After that commit, it would create an unnecessary split container when
you change the layout _before_ opening any containers. To avoid this, we
now store the layout (similar to how the 'workspace_layout'
configuration directive works) and apply it when the first container is
attached to the workspace.
Fixes#796
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
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).
