gibbz00 47023befbf contrib/inactive-windows-transparency: Show only one window as focused 
Script currently has the ability to show multiple windows as active,
wrongly implying that more than one window can be focused at the same
time. It happens when multiple outputs are configured such that multiple
workspaces can be simultaneously shown. Stemming from a conditional to
only change transparency values if the focus change is done on the same
workspace in which the previous focus change was made. (Introduced in:
6235423544.) Commit is somewhat poor in
that it clumps multiple features into one commit, so it's hard to
understand what problem the author attempted to solve with the
conditional. I, for one, can not see any other reason for adding this
arguably incorrect behavior, as it goes directly against the script's
purpose. As such, it's regarded as a bug and the change will remove the
behavior entirely, not making it an option.

Installation

From Packages

Sway is available in many distributions. Try installing the "sway" package for yours.

Compiling from Source

Check out this wiki page if you want to build the HEAD of sway and wlroots for testing or development.

Install dependencies:

  • meson *
  • wlroots
  • wayland
  • wayland-protocols *
  • pcre2
  • json-c
  • pango
  • cairo
  • gdk-pixbuf2 (optional: system tray)
  • scdoc (optional: man pages) *
  • git (optional: version info) *

* Compile-time dep

Run these commands:

meson build/
ninja -C build/
sudo ninja -C build/ install

On systems without logind nor seatd, you need to suid the sway binary:

sudo chmod a+s /usr/local/bin/sway

Sway will drop root permissions shortly after startup.

Configuration

If you already use i3, then copy your i3 config to ~/.config/sway/config and it'll work out of the box. Otherwise, copy the sample configuration file to ~/.config/sway/config. It is usually located at /etc/sway/config. Run man 5 sway for information on the configuration.

Running

Run sway from a TTY. Some display managers may work but are not supported by sway (gdm is known to work fairly well).
