Drawers are horizontal docks, and they can themselves only live in the dock
To use them, right click on the dock or a docked appicon and select "Add
a drawer". Then move appicons into the drawer (drag them with the
mouse). You may change the icon of the drawer. By default, drawers
auto-expand and -collapse, and auto-raise/lower. This can be customized
in the same way as for the clip.
Set DisableDrawers to YES in G/D/WindowMaker if you do not want to see
the menu entry to add a drawer.
Just discovered this bug: the auto-attract icon functionality will not
work (to be precise, it crashes WM!) if the clip is disabled
(NoClip=YES). Will fix shortly, of course.
The options are ClipAutoraiseDelay, ClipAutolowerDelay, ClipAutoexpandDelay, ClipAutocollapseDelay
The default values are weird but merely represent the previously
hard-coded ones. They are repeated in Defaults/WindowMaker to avoid a
WPrefs crash (but it's a good idea to make them "visible", too)
WPrefs change coming up
The CachedPixmap folder is added to the icon list. This is because
if one icon is created, but the user change it and set other icon, the first
icon cannot be selected anymore using the settings window. The user
needs modify the configuration files by hand.
Some extra paths are added to the debian default config file.
Make it launch WPrefs instead of displaying GNUstep information.
GNUstep information under a dockbutton is unneeded and it's commonly replaced
by WPrefs. This also is giving one extra space for another dockapp.
Instead of using the --disable-verbose-compile hack, let's
use the standard option --enable-silent-rules (or 'make V=0' directly)
available with autoconf 1.11 and higher.
This is enabled in autoconf by using 'silent-rules' in AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE.
The verbosity of compilation is reduced in a similar manner as using
the --disable-verbose-compile option, so we can remove all that ugly
hackery.
Correct floppy mountpoint location to match FHS.
Quoting FHS <http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html>:
/media : Mount point for removeable media
Purpose
This directory contains subdirectories which are used as mount points for removeable media such as floppy disks, cdroms and zip disks.
[...]
The following directories, or symbolic links to directories, must be in /media, if the corresponding subsystem is installed:
Directory Description
floppy Floppy drive (optional)
[...]
The "make dist" command can be used to generate the release tarball, but
only if the Makefile.am correctly specifies EXTRA_DIST, specifies
headers in foo_SOURCES, and so on.
The raising and lowering of the clip is already taken care of
by the "ClipRaiseLowerKey" shortcut.
wmaker gets a bit smaller for free:
text data bss dec hex filename
449483 17384 8208 475075 73fc3 src/.libs/wmaker.old
449307 17256 8192 474755 73e83 src/.libs/wmaker.new
This patch adds the DockRaiseLowerKey shortcut, which raises/lowers
the dock depending on whether the dock is lowered/raised.
[crmafra: Reformatted Brad's patch against git repo and removed the
DockRaiseKey and DockLowerKey shortcuts ]
Let's remove the configuration options about "sound" from
WPrefs (as it was never fully functionall anyway) and from
configuration files.
Remove also the xpm and tiff icons.
This patch adds the --disable-verbose-compile switch to the
configure script.
When this option is used it reduces the verbosity of compilation
messages to the essential. However compiler warnings are not affected
and thus gain visibility by not standing in the middle of a storm
of other messages.
In summary, the compilation messages are reduced to a stream of
CC array.o
CC bagtree.o
CC configuration.o
CC connection.o
CC data.o

- Fixed WPrefs path in the installed WMState (changed after recent WPrefs
installation path changes)
- Fixed wmaker.inst (apparently some very noisy individual was unable to get
right his 10 line patch to rename a path)
- Keep menu and title text at 12px since there is not constrained by width
- Removed some obsoleted options from wconfig.h
- Added a lighter image for the switch panel
This was we internally only deal with fc names and properties. It will
incur a small performance hit as the font needs to be parsed/unparsed,
but this is only for backward-compatibility to support old xlfd names.
People are encouraged to swtich to fontconfig names.
- WINGs no longer adds sans as a fallback for internal fonts. It is
automatically done by fontconfig (if it can't find the requested font
it will use the closest match which is the default font: sans-serif)
- Added code to honor the AntialiasesText global option
- Fixed style names for WMCopyFontWithStyle()
- Added fonts in style files where they were missing. Also changed some
fonts to better defaults.
- 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
