...to address regression introduced by 57075ce and enables panel/desktop
clients which rely on window rules to remain in the same position when
the usable-area changes (normally because an exclusive layer-shell
clients is started/finished).
Also disallows interactive move/resize, for example by alt +
mouse-press.

It can be enabled with a config like
~/.config/labwc/rc.xml:
<keyboard layoutScope="window">
~/.config/labwc/environment:
XKB_DEFAULT_LAYOUT=de,us
XKB_DEFAULT_OPTIONS=grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll
With a configuration like this each window should now remember
the active keyboard layout when switching between windows.
By default, the keyboard layout keeps being a global state.
This is a useful (if lesser-known) feature of at least a few popular X11
window managers, for example Openbox and XFWM4. Typically right-click on
the maximize button toggles horizontal maximize, while middle-click
toggles vertical maximize.
Support in labwc uses the same configuration syntax as Openbox, where the
Maximize/ToggleMaximize actions have an optional "direction" argument:
horizontal, vertical, or both (default). The default mouse bindings match
the XFWM4 defaults (not sure what Openbox has by default).
Most of the external protocols still assume "maximized" is a Boolean,
which is no longer true internally. For the sake of the outside world,
a view is only "maximized" if maximized in both directions.
Internally, I've taken the following approach:
- SSD code decorates the view as "maximized" (i.e. hiding borders) only
if maximized in both directions.
- Layout code (interactive move/resize, tiling, etc.) generally treats
the view as "maximized" (with the restrictions that entails) if
maximized in either direction. For example, moving a vertically-
maximized view first restores the natural geometry (this differs from
Openbox, which instead allows the view to move only horizontally.)
v2: use enum view_axis for view->maximized
v3:
- update docs
- allow resizing if partly maximized
- add TODOs & corrections noted by Consolatis
This allows to define keybinds as layout dependent. E.g. keybinds
only trigger if the configured key exists in the currently active
keyboard layout. The keybind will also only trigger on the physical
key that is mapped to the configured key in the active layout.
By default the new argument is false which means all keybinds by
default are layout agnostic. This optional argument can be used
to restore the earlier default behavior of having keys layout
dependent.
With the new keepBorder option enabled, the
ToggleDecorations action now has 3 states:
- the first time only disables the titlebar
- the second time disables the whole SSD
- the third time enables the whole SSD again
When the keepBorder action is disabled, the old 2-state
behavior is restored, e.g. the ToggleDecorations action
only toggles between on and off.
Fixes#813
When adding the fallback keybinds we add them as string but expect them being an int.
This commit fixes that by using the same parsing routines that are used when parsing
user supplied configuration.

actions: use enum for _ToEdge action
...allowing a rule to be applied to only the first window matching a
particular criteria. For example, the following can be used to apply a
window rule to lxqt-panel but not its configuration window with the same
app_id:
<windowRules>
<windowRule identifier="lxqt-panel" matchOnce="true">
<skipTaskbar>yes</skipTaskbar>
<action name="MoveTo" x="0" y="0" />
<action name="ToggleAlwaysOnTop"/>
</windowRule>
</windowRules>
Specify attribute name when adding default mousebind actions.
This is required because in src/action.c action GoToDesktop requires an
argument with key 'to' and does not accept `action_get_first_arg()`
because the action supports other optional attributes so we could not
guarantee that 'to' is the first one.
Fixes: #948
Two types of window rules are supported, actions and properties. They are
defined as shown below.
<windowRules>
<!-- Action -->
<windowRule identifier="some-application">
<action name="Maximize"/>
</windowRule>
<!-- Property -->
<windowRule identifier="foo*" serverDecoration="yes|no"/>
</windowRules>
Rules are applied if windows match the criteria defined by the
'identifier' attribute which relates to app_id for native Wayland windows
and WM_CLASS for XWayland clients.
Matching against patterns with '*' (wildcard) and '?' (joker) is
supported.
Add 'serverDecoration' property.
Previously, if rc.xml defined only non-default libinput categories,
no default category was created. This meant that configure_libinput()
might totally skip configuring some devices even with default
settings, like tap-to-click.
Fix this by making sure that a default category is always created.
.. and use it within src/config/rcxml.c and src/menu/menu.c.
This fixes being unable to use the `direction` argument in menu entries.
