NEWS for veteran Window Maker users
|
||||
-----------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
--- 0.20.2
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The name of WindowMaker was changed to Window Maker.
|
||||
|
||||
Window creation animation disabled by default.
|
||||
|
||||
xdaliclock -shape
|
||||
-----------------
|
||||
|
||||
If you use it edit src/wconfig.h and #define OPTIMIZE_SHAPE or disable the
|
||||
titlebar and resizebar for the window. OPTIMIZE_SHAPE will remove the
|
||||
flickering for xdaliclock and other programs that change their shapes often,
|
||||
but will increase network traffic considerably. So, if you use xdaliclock
|
||||
from a remote machine it can get slow.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Applications Menu
|
||||
-----------------
|
||||
|
||||
The applications menu will now use the shell in the SHELL environment
|
||||
variable to execute EXEC menu commands. If it is unset (I think it's always
|
||||
automatically set by the shell program) it will use /bin/sh
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Extra fancy icon kaboom :)
|
||||
--------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Edit src/wconfig.h and #define ICON_KABOOM_EXTRA to get
|
||||
more effects for the icon undocking animation.
|
||||
|
||||
Options for superfluous stuff are even more superfluous, so this
|
||||
will not become runtime.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
XDE drag and drop support
|
||||
-------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Support for XDE drag and drop was added (by "]d" <id@maliwan.org>).
|
||||
To enable, edit src/wconfig.h
|
||||
The support works with gtk 1.1.2
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
libPropList
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
libPropList will now be built automatically by wmaker. Wich means
|
||||
the (simplified) building process is now:
|
||||
|
||||
./configure
|
||||
make
|
||||
make install
|
||||
|
||||
instead of:
|
||||
|
||||
tar xzf libPropList.tar.gz
|
||||
(cd libPropList; make)
|
||||
make
|
||||
make install
|
||||
|
||||
You also don't need to worry about GNOME libPropList incompatibilities
|
||||
anymore.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Bug with focus lost in sloppy focus fixed
|
||||
-----------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The bug only occurs in sloppy or auto focus modes, with AutoFocus disabled
|
||||
and Superfluous enabled. There is no easy/clean way to fix this, so Window
|
||||
Maker will disable the animation of window creation if the focus mode is
|
||||
either sloppy or auto AND AutoFocus=NO.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want the animation, enable AutoFocus or use manual focus mode
|
||||
(prefered).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The NoWindowUnderDock option was removed
|
||||
----------------------------------------
|
||||
To obtain the same result, use the "Floating Dock" option in the dock menu.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Persistent Program Suplied Icons
|
||||
--------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Application supplied icons are now stored, so that the dock will keep
|
||||
showing them after the app is exited. The icons are stored at
|
||||
~/GNUstep/.AppInfo/WindowMaker/
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
--- 0.20.0
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Multihead support. wmaker will now manage all screens that are attached to the
|
||||
display.
|
||||
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
It does so from a single process (instead of spawning a new process for each
|
||||
screen, like fvwm does). This keeps memory usage a lot lower than fvwm.
