There is no "labwc" manpage in section 5 (man 5 labwc may fail or
show e.g. labwc-action manpage).
Replaced one 'we' with passive form, to match the common style in docs/.
The default window switcher layout is updated from:
<windowSwitcher>
<fields>
<field content="type" width="25%" />
<field content="trimmed_identifier" width="25%" />
<field content="title" width="50%" />
</fields>
</windowSwitcher>
to:
<windowSwitcher>
<fields>
<field content="icon" width="5%" />
<field content="desktop_entry_name" width="30%" />
<field content="title" width="65%" />
</fields>
</windowSwitcher>
Only desktop entry name and title are shown when libsfdo is not linked.
This allows users to make the icon in window switcher bigger (or smaller)
than the font size, which enables more Openbox-like appearance.
Example configuration:
osd.window-switcher.item.icon.size: 50
This commit also makes the icon smaller than the font size if the width
allocated with <windowSwitcher><fields><field width=""> is smaller than
that.
Eliminate corner extents and instead use cursor position to map SSD
borders and extents to corner contexts, with a size configurable by the
<resize><cornerRange> parameter. This simplifies extent handling,
eliminates bugs in the detection of corner context, and allows users to
expand corner targets if they wish.

This commit adds <theme><fallbackAppIcon> that configures the icon name
to be used when lookups for an application icon is failed. Its default
value is set as 'labwc' which shows our labwc logo.
as well as 'openbox-3', for example: /usr/share/themes/foo/labwc/themerc
Give 'labwc' higher precedence than 'openbox-3' if both exist.
For several reasons not all themes designed for labwc render well on
Openbox:
1. Labwc support some features like SVG/PNG icons and #rrggbbaa color
definitions which Openbox does not.
2. Openbox generally defaults to black/white colors and will not render
themes accurate without certain options specified in themerc. For
example, in Openbox the following will just render as black:
window.active.title.bg.color: #589bda
...because Openbox defaults the texture to "Gradient Vertical" and
therefore either needs:
window.active.title.bg.colorTo: #3c7cb7
...or remove 'Gradient' from the bg definition and just use something
like:
window.active.title.bg: Flat Border
Whilst none of this is a problem when using labwc, it causes problems for
setups with both Openbox and labwc because themes designed for labwc only
will now show up in obconf, lxappearance, etc causing confusion for users.
Before this commit, keystrokes were interpreted based on following
hard-coded rules while the window switcher is active:
1. Up/Left arrow keys cycle the window forward.
2. Down/Right arrow keys cycle the window backward.
3. Other keystrokes cycle the window in the initial direction specified
by NextWindow/PreviousWindow actions. But while Shift key is pressed,
the direction is inverted.
...and keybind actions were never executed.
However, this lead to a counter-intuitive behavior for new, especially
pre-Openbox users. For example, in the following keybinds, after the user
activates the window switcher with Super+n, Super+p cycles the window
_forward_:
<keybind key="W-n">
<action name="NextWindow" />
</keybind>
<keybind key="W-p">
<action name="PreviousWindow" />
</keybind>
This is because the key 'n' is recognized just as a normal key in the
third hard-coded rule.
So this commit changes the rules to be more Openbox-like:
1. Up/Left arrow keys cycles the window forward.
2. Down/Right arrow keys cycles the window backward.
3. Other keystrokes are matched against keybinds and execute their
actions. If they include NextWindow/PreviousWindow action, it cycles
the selected window forward/backward even while the window switcher
is active.
Currently, labwc automatically enables outputs at startup and when new
outputs are connected. Make this behavior optional (but still enabled by
default).
With autoEnableOutputs disabled, tools such as kanshi can be used to
give finer-grained control of which outputs are enabled and when.
...to WLR_INFO to avoid logging issues with .desktop files as errors, for
example:
[sfdo-desktop] 1:1: Name is unset
[sfdo-desktop] Failed to load /usr/share/applications/lxqt-panel.desktop
[sfdo-desktop] 1:1: Exec is unset while DBusActivatable is unset or false
[sfdo-desktop] Failed to load /usr/share/applications/qemu.desktop
Also make libsfdo debug/info logging depend on environment variable
LABWC_DEBUG_LIBSFDO being set to avoid disproportionately verbose logging
by default for one particular sub-system.
Add an 'ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES' section to labwc(1) to describe the above
as well as other hitherto undocumented env vars with prefix LABWC_DEBUG_.
...to avoid surprises on Acer Aspire One laptops where the numeric
keyboard does not physically exist but "overlaps" the qwerty keyboard.

Note: We do not like changing defaults, but feel that there is a good
reason for this one.
This is a compile-time check, so it will be too conservative if somebody
updates wlroots after building labwc, but that is still better than the
alternatives.
...to avoid a bug that is present in wlroots <0.18.2 and which has the
potential to crash the compositor when performing a drag-and-drop action
at the same time as the XWayland server is shutting down.
This will be reverted when wlroots-0.18.2 can be linked with.

...of modifiers which are part of keybinds. This supports clients (for
example blender) that want to see modifier-release-events even if they are
part of a keybinds.
Most clients (including those using Qt and GTK) are setup to not see these
modifier release events and actually misbehave if they do. For example
Firefox shows the menu bar if alt is pressed and then released, whereas if
only pressed (because the release is absorbed) nothing happens. So, if
Firefox saw bound modifier-release-events it would show the menu bar every
time the window-switcher is used with alt-tab.

Issue #1507
This makes the colors of titlebar and window borders different, but will
let menu.border.color (which will be supported soon) inherit
window.active.border.color just like Openbox does, without making the menu
borders around a selected menu item invisible.
