This patch is adding directional window focus
(like in openbox), where the focus can be passed to
the current window neighboors with a shortcut key.
Comparisons are performed using window centres.
New options are FocusWindowLeftKey, FocusWindowRightKey,
FocusWindowUpKey, FocusWindowDownKey.
Other WM are setting those to SUPER+LEFT/RIGHT/UP/DOWN keys
but currently those are not set by default.
CirculateRaise option which is described in WPrefs as
'Raise window when switching focus with keyboard' is also
used to raise/not raise windows that are fully covered by
other windows.
This patch is adding vim-like window marking, like in i3.
A window can be dynamically assigned a mark label.
Then a marked window can be pulled or jumped to.
Or the current focused window can be swapped with a marked window.
The mark label appears in the Window List in between the window
title and the workspace name.
Those new options in WindowMaker conf file are used to control
the actions: MarkSetKey, MarkUnsetKey, MarkBringKey, MarkJumpKey
and MarkSwapKey.
Those actions are set to None by default.
This patch is improving the support for RandR.
It uses version 1.3 released in March 2009.
Most of the support is done in randr.c/randr.h
It is built on top of the mature Xinerama structure
but Xinerama lib is not required.
Like for Xinerama, RandR is now auto enabled if the
library is found at compiled time.
RandR support can be used in 2 modes:
A static mode (which is the default) is to define manually
your setup with external tools like xrandr or arandr,
like for example what Openbox is doing.
A dynamic mode, which is triggered on hotplug events,
like for example what GNOME is doing.
If a new monitor is detected, it will select the best mode
available and add it to the right on the existing monitors.
The mode can be switched with a new option available in WindowMaker
conf file (or via WPrefs expert panel):
HotplugMonitor = NO;
This patch is replacing the modelock legacy hardcoded language dropdown
icons with a compact titlebar button based on the current locale.
(it adds also a detection to xkbfile library which is required to get
the short name of the locale).
Now supports up to 4 layouts, clicking on the language button will cycle
through them (XKB officially supports up to four groups).
This patch adds a new Central feature under the window menu
"Other maximization" entry.
Shortcut can be configured via WPrefs "Center active window" action.
When called the active window is centered on the screen head.
If the window height or width are bigger than the head size,
the window is resized to fit.
There are some transitions defined as below:
*from fullscreen to center
*from any corner to center
*from top half to center top half
*from bottom half to center bottom half
*from left half to center left half
*from right half to center right half
Undoing the action is done via the window menu "Unmaximize" entry
or the shortcut.
Window maximize state is not persistent between windowmaker sessions.
This patch is updating the save and restore workspace state functions
to update the state in the WMSTATE file.
I noticed one instance of this while looking at the code the other day,
and after a quick grep, realized it happened a *lot*! One of the many
frustrating things about the English language is that we use apostrophes
to make pretty much everything possessive *except* the pronoun "it".
In that case, we use "its". "It's" is reserved for the contraction
meaning "it is" or "it has".
This adds an option (IgnoreDecorationChanges in plist) for windows to
ignore any requests from the clients for changing decorations. Since the
default state for any window pre-request is to have all decorations visible
this basically means that applications cannot hide any of the titlebar,
sizing bar, titlebar buttons, etc and any hint that causes these elements
to be hidden will be followed by a restoration if this option is set.
This is useful for broken clients (e.g. Steam) and clients that force
subpar client side decorations. It is basically a per-window setting of the
global advanced option to ignore Gtk hints, except that it also applies to
non-Gtk applications.
This patch is adding a wWindowFocusPrev() and wWindowFocusNext() functions.
And copying switchmenu.c focusWindow() as wWindowSingleFocus().

The function wIconChangeTitle() now changes the icon title name
doing the full work (except painting it).
The function receives now the icon to change the name and the
wwindow with the new name. The function checks if icon and the
window exists.
Then, try to get the name using wNETWMGetIconName(), if not found
then try to read it from wGetIconName(). Then the icon has the new
name and the function returns.
This is better because:
1. We don't need a flag to know if the window got the name
using the wNETWMGetIconName function. Now call this function
always.
2. We do the same work in all calls to the wIconChangeTitle()
function.
The functions that uses wIconChangeTitle (at client.c, icon.c and
wmspec.c) uses always the value set by wNETWMGetIconName() first,
else, the value set by wGetIconName(). This is the reason for the
flag net_has_icon_title. Now the flag can be removed.
Added new keyboard shortcuts for moving windows between workspaces.
MoveToWorkspace1Key moves the active window directly to workspace 1.
Similarly for MoveToWorkspace2Key through MoveToWorkspace10Key.
MoveToNextWorkspaceKey moves the window to the next workspace,
MoveToPrevWorkspaceKey moves the window to the previous workspace.
Both keys respect the ws_advance and ws_cycle preferences.
MoveToNextWorkspaceLayerKey moves the window ten workspaces "forward" if
possible.
MoveToPrevWorkspaceLayerKey moves the window ten workspaces "back" if
possible.
This patch only add some tabs the window.h (only window struct area).
The main change is that moves this block to switchpanel.c, because
is only used there:
((w)->wm_gnustep_attr->flags & GSWindowLevelAttr) && \
((w)->wm_gnustep_attr->window_level == WMMainMenuWindowLevel || \
(w)->wm_gnustep_attr->window_level == WMSubmenuWindowLevel))
The patch also include two comments in the window's image:
- WIcon icon is only used when the window is minimized, else is NULL
- RImage has the window image, used in switchpanel,...
Update the saved X co-ordinate of a window which was moved when
maximized (only) vertically so that unmaximizing the window restores
its dimensions without warping it back to its previous X position.
Similarly update the saved Y co-ordinate of a window which was
moved when maximized (only) horizontally.
Handle Maximus as a special case. We remember the Maximusized X and Y
co-ordinates then adjust the restored co-ordinates relative to the
delta between the window's position just after Maximusizing and its
position just before restoring. So for example if a window is
Maximusized, moved 100 pixels to the left and restored, it will end
up 100 pixels left of its original geometry.
Also fix "jumping window" bug reported by Christian Wittmer:
This "jumping window" happens only when you
1) open new xterm (STRG +n)
2) current position is (+64, +0)
3) maximize window vertically
4) undo maximizing
5) move window to the right or left (up or down as you like)
I moved right to (+450, +0)
6) maximize vertically again
7) and undo maximizing
8) window jumps back to (+64, ..) position
If you move a new opened window to a new position (e.g. +200, +200)
and then start with "3)". window is jumping back "+200, +200"
The variables waiting_save_ack, dragged_while_fmaximized,
buttons_dont_fit, rebuild_texture and needs_full_repaint are not used,
so they can be removed.
Even though net_state_from_client was never being set, it was
being tested inside a
if (!wwin->flags.net_state_from_client)
which according to testing was always being true (probably because gcc
initializes it to zero). But this situation is confusing, so it's
better to remove the if() test altogether as that is the intention
if net_state_from_client is not explicitly set (which it isn't in
the current wmaker source).
This situation is analogous to:
[mafra@Pilar:c]$ cat init.c
int main(void)
{
int a;
if (!a)
printf("No a = %d\n", a);
return 0;
}
[mafra@Pilar:c]$ ./init
No a = 0
Avoid some pitfalls with window maximization and make it behave more
intuitively. We now treat a window's vertical and horizontal
maximization as separate properties and only remember its original
geometry in a particular direction when it actually changes. We also
deliberately do not remember a window's geometry when it changes from
one maximized state to another. As a result windows can be more
reliably restored to their original size.
For example the "Maximize active window" hotkey followed by the
"Maximize active window vertically" hotkey will now result in the window
being maximized horizontally only, whereas previously the second hotkey
would have no effect because the window was already maximized
vertically. In addition selecting the Unmaximize window menu in the
same example will now result in the window being restored to its
original size. Previously the unmaximize attempt would have no effect
because the vertical maximization would have remembered the window's
"original" geometry when it was fully maximized.
Maximus is handled separately. The "Maximus" hotkey will now toggle
Maximus mode regardless of the window's current maximization state. For
example if two unmaximized windows are on screen and one is Maximusized
it will fill the space left by the second window, as before. But if the
first window is maximized and the "Maximus" hotkey is pressed the window
will now fill the same space as if it were Maximusized from its original
size. Previously the window would not change size from its fully
maximized state because the Maximus algorithm would consider
fully-maximized to be a valid Maximus size.
By turning M'bert's d6c134 around a bit and adapting the surroundings,
allow _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW only if fulfilling it doesn't cause annoying
unwanted changes in the workspace. This is now the default behaviour;
unconditional focus stealing can be enabled on a per-client basis in the
Advanced Options window menu ("Focus across workspaces").
Some applications running in my machine are only background
windows, e.g.: screenlets showing CPU usage.
In current wmaker version all these applications pollute my
switchpanel, so I wrote this patch (thanks Carlos for the helping me).
It includes an additional advanced option for windows "Do not
include in switchpanel" which, if set, allows applications to
not appear in the switchpanel.

Oh, I see. It lets you override NoAppIcon generically instead of for
each app.

Except it doesn't, the only thing it changes inside wmaker is that it
avoids displaying the name as "DockApp" on the settings window.
A "dockapp" is just an application that sets icon_window in WM_HINTS
(which causes a window to be displayed as the app icon) and
initial_state to WithdrawnState (which causes the main window to not
actually appear when the window is mapped). The class has nothing to do
with it.
The problems I mentioned stem from gtk+ not allowing you to set
initial_state to WithdrawnState. Openbox and fluxbox (and maybe others)
don't take the icon_window into their "slit" unless initial_state is
WithdrawnState, so the whole thing completely fails. Wmaker always uses
the icon_window for the app icon, so that part works fine, but the
"main" app window still flashes onscreen for a split second before the
app can call gdk_window_withdraw(), and wmaker applies SharedAppIcon to
it which winds up screwing up the "Kill" menu option.
That said, I've attached a patch to have wmaker treat any window with
class DockApp as if it had initial_state = WithdrawnState, and hopefully
openbox, fluxbox, and the like will pick up the idea too so gtk+
hacks[1] will no longer be needed. If this patch is accpeted, I'll poke
fluxbox and openbox to suggest the idea to them.
[1] E.g. http://wmudmount.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/wmudmount/dock.c?r1=8&r2=7
Subject: [PATCH] Improve dockapp recognition
Dockapps are traditionally recognized by having initial_state =
WithdrawnState in WM_HINTS. But some toolkits (e.g. gtk+) will not allow
setting initial_state in this way. So we offer an alternative: any
window with the res_class portion of WM_CLASS set as "DockApp" will be
treated as if it had initial_state = WithdrawnState.
Even the option to enable "virtual desktop" in configure.ac was
commented out...and I would never intend to use it anyway.
So let's just remove the ~800 lines of #ifdef'ed code to have a
cleaner code base to read when bored.
This patch introduces the "tiled maximization" feature, a.k.a. Maximus.
By pressing the keyboard shortcut associated with Maximus, the focused
window will be maximized to the greatest area satisfying the constraint
of not overlapping existing windows.
This adds Left Half / Right Half Maximize capability to WindowMaker.
It allows you to maximize a window to only the left or right half
of your screen.
It is useful on widescreen displays where one might to bring up
two different windows side-by-side.
In commit d6c134f420 ("Do not switch
workspace to follow new windows in others") the default behavior
was changed, and workspace switching to follow focus requests was
strictly forbidden.
Although that seems to be a sane thing to do by default, that raises
concerns about whether Window Maker could be more flexible in that
respect -- allowing the user to choose which applications are or
are not allowed to do that.
This patch adds such configuration, located in the "Advanced Options"
submenu of the top-level "Attributes" menu.
- Fixed bug in icon chooser dialog that could cause a segmentation fault
in some cases (Pascal Hofstee <caelian@gmail.com>)
- Fixed crash in asm code in wrlib, with new versions of gcc.
- Fixed bug in the x86_PseudoColor_32_to_8() function which incorrectly
used the r, g, b fields in the conversion.
- Fixed x86 ASM code in wrlib to work on 64 bit architectures.
- Fixed the focus flicker seen with some apps (notably gtk2)
(Alexey Spiridonov <snarkmaster@gmail.com>)
- Fixed all crashing bugs that were generated by wmaker starting with the
WMState file missing.
- Added NetWM support (a modified version of the patch originaly written
by Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>)
- Applied patch to enhance the Virtual Desktop behaviour, and to integrate
it with the NetWM code (Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>)
- Applied a few xinerama and placement fixes (Peter Zijlstra
<a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>)
- Fixed memory leak in dock code.
- Fixed and enhanced the text wrapping in WINGs.
- Fixed the layout of some elements in WPrefs.app
- Added workaround for aplications that don't set the required hints on the
client leader window, but they set them on normal windows (observer with
KDE 3.3.0 mainly). This will allow these apps to get an appicon again.
(they should be fixed still)
- Added workaround for applications that do not set a command with
XSetCommand(), but instead they set the _NET_WM_PID property. This works
with operating systems that offer a /proc interface similar to what linux
has. (This also is to fix problems with KDE 3.3.0 apps, but not only them).
- Fixed bug with autostart and exit scripts not being executed if user
GNUstep path was different from ~/GNUstep (when setting GNUSTEP_USER_ROOT)
- Added utf8 support in WINGs (removed old X core font code)
- Added utility to convert old font names to new font names in style files
- Separated the font caches for normal fonts and fontsets in WINGs (they can
have the same names and collide in the cache giving unwanted results)
- Updated the years in the copyright notices
internal code clean-up with notifications for window state change and other
stuff, also cleaned kde and gnome support in preparation for wm-spec support..
