backend/x11: use request_state when window is resized
Ref: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wlroots/wlroots/-/merge_requests/2693
We now delay requested resolution changes by the backend until
the next frame event which causes us to render the new content
on the already enlarged buffer. Before this change, an empty
(black) buffer would have been shown instead before the next
frame event caused a new render of the actual contents.
Keep commiting the new state and then scheduling a frame event
would not help as due to the commit call it would still show an
empty buffer in the meantime.
Just modifying wlr_output->pending wouldn't work either because
wlr_scene_output_commit() *completely* ignores it (and it will
be removed in future wlroots commits). For this reason we move
to wlr_scene_output_build_state() directly because it allows us
to supply the current wlr_output->pending state and thus apply
any resolution change in lockstep with new rendering. Result:
No more flickering in the wayland backend and resizing is again
smooth as butter.
This prevents constant flicker while resizing
when running nested via the wayland backend.
For the X11 backend (can be tested via `WLR_BACKENDS=x11 labwc`),
it is still rather janky but at least doesn't cause endless self-
resizing anymore.
Fixes#1076
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.
We already allow some xwayland-unmanaged surfaces to take focus on map,
if indicated by wlr_xwayland_or_surface_wants_focus(). But once these
surfaces lose focus, they never regain it again.
Add desktop_focus_view_or_surface() and call it in the appropriate
places to allow these views to regain focus in the usual ways (e.g.
clicking on them or focus-follows-mouse).
We were checking for a locked session in desktop_focus_view(), but there
are several other call sites of seat_focus_surface() which were missing
such a check. Any one of those could cause the lock screen to lose focus
(making the session impossible to unlock) or another surface to gain it
(breaching the session lock).
To fix the issue, make any call to seat_focus_surface() no-op when the
session is locked. Add a specific seat_focus_lock_surface() function
which is the only way to bypass the check and is called only from
session-lock.c.
XWayland views can self-declare that they don't want keyboard focus via
the ICCCM WM_HINTS property. Most of the logic is already in place to
avoid giving focus to such views (e.g. taskbars).
Add a couple of missing pieces to make this work:
- Hook up view_isfocusable() to look at WM_HINTS for XWayland views
- Adjust desktop_focus_topmost_mapped_view() to skip unfocusable views
- Connect to wlr_seat_keyboard_state's focus_change event.
- Add view_from_wlr_surface(), which does what the name says.
- Use focus_change event along with view_from_wlr_surface() to update
server->focused_view and set SSD states via view_set_activated().
- Eliminate desktop_focused_view() since server->focused_view should be
reliably up-to-date now.
- Eliminate view_focus/defocus() since we can now just call
seat_focus_surface() directly.
Make desktop_focus_view() always switch to the workspace containing the
view being focused. It doesn't make much sense for an invisible view to
have the keyboard focus.
Also add an optional "raise" parameter to desktop_focus_view(). This
allows the common pattern of desktop_focus_view() + view_move_to_front()
to be reduced to a single function call.
Our current approach to handling the focused/active view is a bit
confusing. In particular, it's hard to be sure when server->focused_view
is or isn't in sync with the real wlroots keyboard focus.
Try to clean things up a bit. In particular:
- Add comments to server->focused_view and desktop_focused_view() to
clarify that they should match, but it's not guaranteed.
- desktop_focused_view() now prints a warning if it detects that
server->focused_view is out of sync. We should keep an eye out for
this warning, and if we see it, try to figure out why it happened.
- For consistency, use only "focus/defocus" as the verbs in function
names rather than "activate". This is a bit arbitrary, but the idea is
that focus is the primary action while the active/inactive state is a
side effect.
- view_focus/defocus() replace view_set_activated() and now update both
focus and active/inactive state, to try to keep them in sync.
- Add comments at view_focus/defocus() to warn against calling them
directly (we should generally call the desktop.c functions).
- desktop_focus_view(NULL) is now forbidden and is no longer handled as
a special case to clear the focus. This was (at least to me) a
surprising behavior and caused trouble when working on another change.
- To maintain existing behavior, desktop_focus_topmost_mapped_view() now
explicitly clears the focus if there are no mapped views.
There should be no behavioral change here.
Made all header files to have LABWC_ prefix in include guard identifers.
Converted from __LABWC_ in 35 include/ files.
Converted from __LAB_ in 5 include/ files.
Added LABWC prefix to 3 include/ files.
Added include guards to 3 include/ files.
The double underscores were removed since according to C standard
those "are always reserved for any use".
When wanting to snap to a region when starting the move
operation with A-Left (or a similar mousebind which includes a
modifier), the modifier - or another one - must be pressed again.
Fixes#761
This can be used to better control Virtual Machines, VNC clients, nested
compositors or similar. All keybinds other than ToggleKeybinds itself are
disabled when first called, a 2nd call will restore handling of all keybinds.
Fixes#738Fixes#810
...to increase xwayland and xdg-shell encapsulation and to avoid passing a
function pointer as an argument in `xwayland_move_sub_views_to_front()`
which is inconsistent with labwc design patterns.
Rename view-impl.c to view-impl-common.c
Move function declarations that are common to view-implementations from
view.h into view-impl-common.h
This PR allows applications to activate themselves *if they provide
a valid xdg_activation token* (e.g. raise to the top and get keyboard
focus).
These tokens are given out by the xdg_activation protocol implemented
by wlroots and can be configured by the client requesting the token
in three ways:
- an "empty" token
(apparently used to tell the compositor about "urgency")
- seat / input serial attached
- surface attached
Wlroots makes sure that
- If the client attached the seat / input serial: those two are valid.
- If the client attached a surface: that it has keyboard focus at the
point where the request is finalized. There is a patch [1] pending
for backport to wlroots 0.16 that also allows valid tokens when the
supplied surface had cursor focus.
- a token is only valid for 30 seconds after being given out
The token can then be used by the client or given to other clients by
unspecified means (e.g. via environment variable or dbus) which then
may use the token on their own surface and request activation.
We only handle the actual request activation part:
- If the seat is set on the token we know wlroots validated seat and
input serial
- Thus, if no seat is set we deny the activation request so we don't
have windows suddenly popping up and taking over the keyboard focus
(focus stealing prevention)
- We should also check for the surface being set but we can't do that
with wlroots 0.16 as it will reset the surface to `NULL` when it is
destroyed (which is something that usually happens for
notifications). Once we move to wlroots 0.17.x we can add the
missing surface check because it provides a `new_token` signal.
We can use it to attach further details to the token which are then
verified later when we decide if we allow the activate request or
not.
With this PR in place the following setup should activate windows:
- launching an URL in foot should activate the target application if
it is already running, foot requests a proper token and then sets it
as `XDG_ACTIVATION_TOKEN` environment var before spawning `xdg-open`
- clicking on a `mako` notification with a `default` action defined
should request a proper token which is then given to the application
starting the notification and can thus be used to activate itself
This protocol is still very much in the process of being
implemented / finalized all over the place (e.g. GTK / QT / Firefox /
notification daemons, ..) but we should do our part and remove labwc
from the puzzle of potential issues causing this not to work.
