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.
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.
...to replace padding.{width,height} to minimize breaking changes with the
visual appearance of the titlebar.
With the diverging labwc specification for the titlebar (listed below)
we have to choose between (a) not supporting the padding.{width,height}
option which exist in many extant Openbox themes to keep titlebar height
(almost) the same; or (b) making the allocated button areas much smaller
and not keeping the default hover going all the way to the edges. All in
all it just seems a lot simpler and cleaner to break this link to the
openbox spec.
Examples of previous change driving the requirement for this change:
- SVG and PNG support which often results in large icons with hover
effects.
- Theme option window.button.{height,width}
- Larger default areas for icons (26x26)
In way of an example, Numix theme sets a padding.height of 6 which would
have resulted in a titlebar 12px taller without this change.
...because now that window.button.height determines the height of button
hover effect the visible appearance of the titlebar will change unless
we reduce the padding to zero.
Backward compatibility notice: If a users theme sets padding.height to a
value greater than zero, the titlebar will be taller compared with
openbox. This can be fixed by either reducing window.button.height or
overriding padding.height
This theme setting does not exist in Openbox spec and has just been an
additional 'knob' to tweak the height which is otherwise derived from the
sizes of the objects within it plus padding.
...defined by `<separator label="">`.
Also add the theme option `menu.title.bg.color: #589bda`
The following will be added in separate commits
- menu.title.bg.border.color: #7cb6ec
- menu.title.text.color: #ffffff
- menu.title.text.justify: center
Add optional drop-shadows to windows using server-side decoration.
Shadows can be enabled/disabled rc.xml and their appearance configured
in themerc. The default is no shadows to preserve current behaviour.
The shadows are drawn in fixed corner and edge buffers shared between
all windows, the edges are scaled to size depending on the size of each
window. Two sets of buffers are used to give the different appearances
for active and inactive windows. I use separate corner/edge buffers for
a few reasons:
- It avoids needing to store a separate large shadow buffer per window
- It avoids needing to redraw the shadows when the window is being
resized
- Compositing the shadows onto the desktop should be faster as there are
overall fewer pixels to blend, and scaling up the edge buffers only
requires reading a tiny buffer which is then replicated.
Filled/outlined rectangles shown as snapping overlay are now enabled/disabled
independently with `snapping.overlay.[region|edge].bg.enabled` and
`snapping.overlay.[region|edge].border.enabled`.
To keep the default behavior, `*.bg.enabled` is yes and `*.border.enabled` is
no for hardware-based renderers, while `*.bg.enabled` is no and
`*.border.enabled` is yes for software-based (pixman) renderer.
Users can now use a filled rectangle as an overlay even with pixman renderer.
However, this may severely impact performance when used with translucent
`snapping.overlay.[region|edge].bg.color`.
This commit includes a refactor to use substruct `theme_snapping_overlay`
inside `theme` in order to pass it to `create_overlay_rect()` in a cleaner way.
Breaking changes is:
- `snapping.overlay.[region|edge].fill` is now removed.
Replace "preview" in rc.xml and themerc with "overlay" since "preview" sounds
like it shows the window content.
Breaking changes are:
- `snapping.preview.*` in themerc is now replaced with `snapping.overlay`.
- `<snapping><preview>` in rc.xml is now replaced with `<snapping><overlay>`.
Add ability to set width with percentage of monitor instead of just pixels.
With this the OSD sizes itself properly on both my 4k and 2k monitors.
example: 50% or 75% instead of 600, max 100%
...and change default values for the variables below to keep the
window-switcher look the same as it was at the last release.
osd.window-switcher.padding = 4
osd.window-switcher.item.padding.y = 1
osd.window-switcher.item.active.border.width = 2
...by reading <config-dir>/themerc-override where <config-dir> is normally
$HOME/.config/labwc can be other locations as described in labwc-config(5)
and can also be specified by the command line option -C.
The reason for supporting theme override is to give users more fine-
grained control of settings without making local copies and modifying
themes.
Add theme options:
- menu.separator.width
- menu.separator.padding.width
- menu.separator.padding.height
- menu.separator.color
Support separator lines defined by <separator />
Note that separator labels (with text) defined by <separator label="" />
are not supported.
