For example, create layout H[view T[view view view]], focus the view in
the hsplit and scroll the mouse wheel over the tab title bars. Prior to
this patch, focus would be given to a descendant of the tabbed
container. This patch keeps the focus on the hsplit view.
This also renames some of the variables used in this part of the code to
make it be easier to follow.
The cursor's image would be removed or set when the seat's capabilities
were updated, but there was nothing to prevent the image from being set
at other times.
The input manager is a singleton object. Passing the sway_input_manager
argument to each of its functions is unnecessary, while removing the
argument makes it obvious to the caller that it's a singleton. This
patch removes the argument and makes the input manager use server.input
instead.
On a similar note:
* sway_input_manager.server is removed in favour of using the server
global.
* seat.input is removed because it can get it from server.input.
Due to a circular dependency, creating seat0 is now done directly in
server_init rather than in input_manager_create. This is because
creating seats must be done after server.input is set.
Lastly, it now stores the default seat name using a constant and removes
a second reference to seat0 (in input_manager_get_default_seat).
Because cursor warping was the default behaviour in seat_set_focus,
there may be cases where we may have been warping the cursor
unintentionally. This patch removes cursor warping from seat_set_focus
and only does it in the focus command. This is managed by a static
function in focus.c.
To know whether to warp or not, we need to know which node had focus
previously. To keep track of this easily, seat->prev_focus has been
introduced and is set to the previous in seat_set_focus.
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.
This introduces seat_set_raw_focus: a function that manipulates the
focus stack without doing any other behaviour whatsoever. There are a
few places where this is useful, such as where we set focus_inactive
followed by another call to set the real focus again. With this change,
the notify argument to seat_set_focus_warp is also removed as these
cases now use the raw function instead.
A bonus of this is we are no longer emitting window::focus IPC events
when setting focus_inactive, nor are we sending focus/unfocus events to
the surface.
This also fixes the following:
* When running `move workspace to output <name>` and moving the last
workspace from the source output, the workspace::focus IPC event is no
longer emitted for the newly created workspace.
* When splitting the currently focused container, unfocus/focus events
will not be sent to the surface when giving focus_inactive to the newly
created parent, and window::focus events will not be emitted.
* Set focus to a floating container when clicking its title bar.
* Raise floating when user clicks title bar or decorations (in the
seat_begin functions).
* In container_at, it only returned a floating container if the user had
clicked the surface. This makes it use floating_container_at instead.
This introduces a new view_impl function: is_transient_for. Similar to
container_has_ancestor but works using the surface parents rather than
the tree.
This patch modifies view_is_visible, container_at and so on to allow
transient views to function normally when they're in front of a
fullscreen view.
* Click and hold a scrollbar
* Drag the cursor onto another surface
* While still holding the original button, press and release another
cursor button
* Things get weird
There's two ways to fix this. Either cancel the seat operation and do
the other click, or continue the seat operation and ignore the other
click. I opted for the latter (ignoring the click) because it's easier
to implement, and I suspect a second click during a seat operation is
probably unintentional anyway.
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.
This replaces view.using_csd with a new border mode: B_CSD. This also
removes sway_xdg_shell{_v6}_view.deco_mode and
view->has_client_side_decorations as we can now get these from the
border.
You can use `border toggle` to cycle through the modes including CSD, or
use `border csd` to set it directly. The client must support the
xdg-decoration protocol, and the only client I know of that does is the
example in wlroots.
If the client switches from SSD to CSD without us expecting it (via the
server-decoration protocol), we stash the previous border type into
view.saved_border so we can restore it if the client returns to SSD. I
haven't found a way to test this though.
Firstly, a change had to be made to the container_at functions. If you
create layout `T[view H[view view]]` and hover the second tab, the
container_at functions would return the focus_inactive child. They now
return the split container itself. To compensate for this,
dispatch_cursor_button has been adjusted to find the focus_inactive
child before focusing it.
The actual implementation of wheel scrolling is pretty straightforward.
This uses handle_cursor_axis, so I took a similar approach to
handle_cursor_button (ie. creating a dispatch_cursor_axis function).
* Make container_add_sibling's `after` argument a boolean.
* Use a constant for drop layout border
* Make thickness an int
* Add button state check
* Move comments in seat_end_move_tiling
These are the same as seat_set_focus, but accept a specific type rather
than using nodes. Doing this adds more typesafety and lets us avoid
using &con->node which looks a little ugly.
This fixes a crash that pretty much nobody would ever come across. If
you have a bindsym for "focus" with no arguments and run it from an
empty workspace, sway would crash because it assumes `container` is not
NULL.
This commit changes the meaning of sway_container so that it only refers
to layout containers and view containers. Workspaces, outputs and the
root are no longer known as containers. Instead, root, outputs,
workspaces and containers are all a type of node, and containers come in
two types: layout containers and view containers.
In addition to the above, this implements type safe variables. This
means we use specific types such as sway_output and sway_workspace
instead of generic containers or nodes. However, it's worth noting that
in a few places places (eg. seat focus and transactions) referring to
them in a generic way is unavoidable which is why we still use nodes in
some places.
If you want a TL;DR, look at node.h, as well as the struct definitions
for root, output, workspace and container. Note that sway_output now
contains a workspaces list, and workspaces now contain a tiling and
floating list, and containers now contain a pointer back to the
workspace.
There are now functions for seat_get_focused_workspace and
seat_get_focused_container. The latter will return NULL if a workspace
itself is focused. Most other seat functions like seat_get_focus and
seat_set_focus now accept and return nodes.
In the config->handler_context struct, current_container has been
replaced with three pointers: node, container and workspace. node is the
same as what current_container was, while workspace is the workspace
that the node resides on and container is the actual container, which
may be NULL if a workspace itself is focused.
The global root_container variable has been replaced with one simply
called root, which is a pointer to the sway_root instance.
The way outputs are created, enabled, disabled and destroyed has
changed. Previously we'd wrap the sway_output in a container when it is
enabled, but as we don't have containers any more it needs a different
approach. The output_create and output_destroy functions previously
created/destroyed the container, but now they create/destroy the
sway_output. There is a new function output_disable to disable an output
without destroying it.
Containers have a new view property. If this is populated then the
container is a view container, otherwise it's a layout container. Like
before, this property is immutable for the life of the container.
Containers have both a `sway_container *parent` and
`sway_workspace *workspace`. As we use specific types now, parent cannot
point to a workspace so it'll be NULL for containers which are direct
children of the workspace. The workspace property is set for all
containers, except those which are hidden in the scratchpad as they have
no workspace.
In some cases we need to refer to workspaces in a container-like way.
For example, workspaces have layout and children, but when using
specific types this makes it difficult. Likewise, it's difficult for a
container to get its parent's layout when the parent could be another
container or a workspace. To make it easier, some helper functions have
been created: container_parent_layout and container_get_siblings.
container_remove_child has been renamed to container_detach and
container_replace_child has been renamed to container_replace.
`container_handle_fullscreen_reparent(con, old_parent)` has had the
old_parent removed. We now unfullscreen the workspace when detaching the
container, so this function is simplified and only needs one argument
now.
container_notify_subtree_changed has been renamed to
container_update_representation. This is more descriptive of its
purpose. I also wanted to be able to call it with whatever container was
changed rather than the container's parent, which makes bubbling up to
the workspace easier.
There are now state structs per node thing. ie. sway_output_state,
sway_workspace_state and sway_container_state.
The focus, move and layout commands have been completely refactored to
work with the specific types. I considered making these a separate PR,
but I'd be backporting my changes only to replace them again, and it's
easier just to test everything at once.
When we have type safety we'll need to have functions for
workspace_add_tiling and so on. This means the existing container
functions will be just for containers, so they are being moved to
container.c. At this point layout.c doesn't contain much else, so I've
relocated everything and removed the file.
* container_swap and its static functions have been moved to the swap
command and made static.
* container_recursive_resize has been moved to the resize command and
made static.
* The following have been moved to container.c:
* container_handle_fullscreen_reparent
* container_insert_child
* container_add_sibling
* container_add_child
* container_remove_child
* container_replace_child
* container_split
* enum movement_direction and sway_dir_to_wlr have been moved to util.c.
Side note: Several commands included layout.h which then included
root.h. With layout.h gone, root.h has to be included by those commands.
Workspaces previously had a magical `workspace->floating` container,
which had a layout of L_FLOATING and whose children were actual floating
views. This allowed some conveniences, but was a hacky solution because
the container has to be exempt from focus, coordinate transactions with
the workspace, and omit emitting IPC events (which we didn't do).
This commit changes it to be a list directly in the sway_workspace. The
L_FLOATING layout is no longer used so this has been removed as well.
* Fixes incorrect check in the swap command (it checked if the
containers had the L_FLOATING layout, but this layout applied to the
magical container).
* Introduces workspace_add_floating
There was a separate function dispatch_cursor_button_floating which
dealt with the resize and move operations, but as resize is not really
limited to floating views, it doesn't make as much sense to have this
separate. So both functions are now combined into one.
Additionally, dispatch_cursor_button now uses a pattern of returning
early instead of using else-ifs.
* The OP_RESIZE seat operation has been renamed to OP_RESIZE_FLOATING,
and OP_RESIZE_TILING has been introduced.
* Similar to the above, seat_begin_resize and handle_resize_motion have
been renamed and tiling variants introduced.
* resize.c's resize_tiled has to be used, so container_resize_tiled has
been introduced in resize.c to allow external code to call it.
