This modifies the way mouse bindings are parsed. Instead of adding to
BTN_LEFT, which results in button numbers that may not be expected,
buttons will be parsed in one of the following ways:
1. `button[1-9]` will now map to their x11 equivalents. This is already
the case for bar bindings. This adds support for binding to axis events,
which was not possible in the previous approach.
2. Anything that starts with `BTN_` will be parsed as an event code name
using `libevdev_event_code_from_name`. This allows for any button to be
mapped to instead of limiting usage to the ones near BTN_LEFT. This also
adds a dependency on libevdev, but since libevdev is already a dependency
of libinput, this should be fine. If needed, this option can have dependency
guards added.
Binding changes:
- button1: BTN_LEFT -> BTN_LEFT
- button2: BTN_RIGHT -> BTN_MIDDLE
- button3: BTN_MIDDLE -> BTN_RIGHT
- button4: BTN_SIDE -> SWAY_SCROLL_UP
- button5: BTN_EXTRA -> SWAY_SCROLL_DOWN
- button6: BTN_FORWARD -> SWAY_SCROLL_LEFT
- button7: BTN_BACK -> SWAY_SCROLL_RIGHT
- button8: BTN_TASK -> BTN_SIDE
- button9: BTN_JOYSTICK -> BTN_EXTRA
Since the axis events need to be mapped to an event code, this uses the
following mappings to avoid any conflicts:
- SWAY_SCROLL_UP: KEY_MAX + 1
- SWAY_SCROLL_DOWN: KEY_MAX + 2
- SWAY_SCROLL_LEFT: KEY_MAX + 3
- SWAY_SCROLL_RIGHT: KEY_MAX + 4
The new functions allow a cursor to be warped without changing the focus.
This is a preparation commit to handle cursor warping not only in
seat_set_focus_warp.
Re-focus on the container on which the cursor hovers over. A
special case is, if there are menus or other subsurfaces open
in the focused container. It will prefer the focused container
as long as there are subsurfaces.
This commit starts caching the previous node as well as the
previous x/y cursor position. Re-calculating the previous
focused node by looking at the current state of the cursor
position does not work, if the environment changes.
The mouse binding logic is inspired/copied from the
keyboard binding logic; we store a sorted list of the
currently pressed buttons, and trigger a binding when
the currently pressed (or just recently pressed, in
the case of a release binding) buttons, as well as
modifiers/container region, match those of a given
binding.
As the code to execute a binding is not very keyboard
specific, keyboard_execute_command is renamed to
seat_execute_command and moved to where the other
binding handling functions are. The call to
transaction_commit_dirty has been lifted out.
