Adds following settings:
<placement>
<policy>cascade</policy>
<cascadeOffset x="40" y="30" />
</placement>
"Cascade" policy places a new window at the center of the screen like
"center" policy, but possibly shifts its position to bottom-right so the
new window doesn't cover existing windows.
The algorithm is copied from KWin's implementation:
df9f8f8346/src/placement.cpp (L589)
Also added some helper functions to manipulate `wlr_box`.
Gamma changes take another code path and thus did not
render the magnifier. This patch consalidates both
code paths and therefore also renders the magnifier on
gamma changes.
Fixes: #1905
There were some missing headers like <stddef.h> for `NULL`, <wayland-util.h>
for `wl_link` and <stdbool.h> for `true`/`false`.
Also this commit fixes that `labwc.h` and `ime.h` included each other.
Add a BUF_INIT macro, which makes it easier to initialize a struct buf
to an empty string (without a heap allocation).
Add buf_move() to move the contents of one struct buf to another (the
source is reset to BUF_INIT, analogous to C++ move-assignment).
Use buf_reset() instead of directly calling `free(s->buf)` since the
internal buf may not always be allocated by malloc() now.
...to start <command> on startup and to terminate the compositor when
<command> exits.
This is useful for session management as it allows the session client (for
example `lxqt-session`) to terminate labwc - be exiting itself.
Under X, xinit starts the server and keeps it alive for as long as
lxqt-session runs. Thus either the session client starts the Window
Manager, or the Window Manager can be launched independently first. On
Wayland, the Compositor is both Display Server and Window Manager, so the
described session management mechanisms do not work because the Compositor
needs to be running before the session can function.
As some session clients support both X11 and Wayland, this command line
option avoids re-writes and fragmentation.

After a roundabout discussion[1] with wlroots devs, it's become apparent
that subpixel text rendering (a.k.a. "ClearType") does not work properly
when rendering over a transparent background, as labwc currently does.
Basically it comes down to the fact that the color of semi-transparent
pixels (which is adjusted redder or bluer to compensate for RGB subpixel
alignment) depends somewhat on background color. When rendering over
transparency, the text engine doesn't know the intended background color
and can't adjust the pixel colors correctly.
With Pango/Cairo, the end result can range from grayscale rendering (no
subpixel rendering at all) to wrong/oversaturated colors (for example,
bright pink pixels when rendering white text on blue background).
This change solves the issue by first filling the text buffer with an
opaque background color before rendering the text over it. Currently,
this is easy since the background is always a solid color. It may be a
little more complex (but doable) if we implement gradients in future.
Note that GTK 4 (and to some degree, recent versions of Microsoft
Windows) avoid this issue by disabling subpixel rendering altogether. I
would much prefer that labwc NOT do this -- it results in noticeably
blurrier text on non-retina LCD screens, which are still common.

There is at least one user of the buffer API that reuse a single
buffer by just resetting `buf.len` to `0`. This works as long as
the new user of the buffer actually adds something to the buffer.
However, if we don't add anything but still provide `buf.buf` to
a consumer, the old content will be re-used.
This patch thus adds two new clearing variants to the buffer API:
- `buf_clear()` which doesn't reset the internal allocations
- `buf_reset()` which does free the internal allocations
Additionally, this patch makes `buffer_add_char()` public which
allows adding single characters to an existing buffer. This will
be used in a future PR which implements custom format strings for
the OSD.
1. All '*.env' files in an 'environment.d' directory alongside each
potential 'environment' file will be parsed and added to the
environment.
2. For the purposes of configuration merging, an environment definition
exists at one level if either the 'environment' file is defined or
its corresponding 'environment.d' contains any valid '*.env' file.
3. Variable declarations of the form "VARIABLE=", with no following
value, will be written to the environment as empty strings.
...to give keyboard focus to layer-shell clients if exclusive or on-demand
interactivity is set, so that menu popups can be navigated with the
keyboard. This still only works if the client is in top (or overlay)
layers. Support for bottom and background to be done as a separate patch
set.
Revert 06b19f0 to process layer-shell subsurfaces in
`cursor_button_press()`, but only when their parent layer-shell surface
has keyboard interactivity.
Fix bug in `get_cursor_context()` which resulted in layer-surfaces not
being detected correctly.
Background:
Commit 06b19f0 (issue #1131) disabled processing of layer-shell
subsurfaces in cursor_button_press() because when pressing a task in
Waybar (Gtk panel using layer-shell subsurfaces) the foreign-toplevel
minimize-raise action did not work correctly as the action logic relied on
the recipient window being activated and by clicking on the panel, the
panel itself was both surface-focusd and activated (and thus the window
de-activated).
The un-intended consequence was that by not responding to layer-subsurface
cursor buttons presses, layer-shell clients (such as panels) were not
given keyboard focus if they indeed wanted it by setting exclusive or
on-demand keyboard interactivity.
The good news is that that following @jlindgren90's refactoring (various)
the only place where we call `view_set_actived()` is in
`focus_change_notify()` in `seat.c` and we now only do it for views
(bb8f0bc).
Another side-effect (positive) of 06b19f0 was that a Waybar dnd bug was
fixed (pointer-serial-number validation failure).
Have tested with sfwbar, waybar and tint (test-panel) the following
results:
- Minimize-raise works even when on-demand keyboard interactivity is set
- Keyboard interactivity is given popup-menus (sfwbar and tint) when the
panels are in the top layer (support for bottom will be as a separate
patch set)
- Waybar dnd still works (even when hard-coding keyboard-interactivity)

Add the -m|--merge-config command line option to iterate backwards over
XDG Base Dir paths and read config/theme files multiple times.
For example if both ~/.config/labwc/rc.xml and /etc/xdg/labwc/rc.xml
exist, the latter will be read first and then the former (if
--merge-config is enabled).
When $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is defined, make it replace (not augment)
$HOME/.config. Similarly, make $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS replace /etc/xdg when
defined.
XDG Base Dir Spec does not specify whether or not an application (or a
compositor!) should (a) define that only the file under the most important
base directory should be used, or (b) define rules for merging the
information from the different files.

In the case of labwc there is a use-case for both positions, just to be
clear, the default behaviour, described by position (a) above, does NOT
change.
This change affects the following config/theme files:
- rc.xml
- menu.xml
- autostart
- environment
- themerc
- themerc-override
- Theme buttons, for example max.xbm
Instead of caching global config/theme directories, create lists of paths
(e.g. '/home/foo/.config/labwc/rc.xml', '/etc/xdg/labwc/rc.xml', etc).
This creates more common parsing logic and just reversing the direction
of iteration and breaks early if config-merge is not wanted.
Enable better fallback for themes. For example if a particular theme does
not exist in $HOME/.local/share/themes, it will be searched for in
~/.themes/ and so on. This also applies to theme buttons which now
fallback on an individual basis.
Avoid using stat() in most situations and just go straight to fopen().

backend/wayland: use request_state when toplevel is resized
Chases: 3ef68a484243555b020200c6f95246d994932c3f
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.
This makes the code a bit more readable IMHO (and forces us to be
consistent with event handler function names).
Adjust scripts/checkpatch.pl to not complain.
...<command> argument (but still resolve tilde).
This makes it easier to write sh -c '' constructs without turning labwc
into a shell parser in order to expand environment variables, whilst
respecting single quotes and escaped characters as well as ignoring
subshells syntax like $(foo) and backticks.
Also, fix bug where buffer length+alloc get out-of-sync
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".
Adds two new theme vars:
- menu.width.min (menu will never be smaller than this)
- menu.width.max (menu will never be wider than this + padding)
A fixed menu width can be achieved by setting
menu.width.min == menu.width.max.
IMHO it encourages better design (by making dependencies more obvious)
to have source file/header file pairs like view.c/view.h, rather than a
monolithic header like labwc.h with everything in it.
I don't think we need to break up all of labwc.h at once, but maybe we
can start pulling it apart bit by bit as it's convenient.
Also:
- Move "struct border" to ssd.h so that view.h can use it without pulling
in all of labwc.h.
- Add a missing required #include within scaled_font_buffer.h (forward
declaration of "struct font" is not enough).
