Workspaces previously had a magical `workspace->floating` container,
which had a layout of L_FLOATING and whose children were actual floating
views. This allowed some conveniences, but was a hacky solution because
the container has to be exempt from focus, coordinate transactions with
the workspace, and omit emitting IPC events (which we didn't do).
This commit changes it to be a list directly in the sway_workspace. The
L_FLOATING layout is no longer used so this has been removed as well.
* Fixes incorrect check in the swap command (it checked if the
containers had the L_FLOATING layout, but this layout applied to the
magical container).
* Introduces workspace_add_floating
This commit renames container_sort_workspaces to output_sort_workspaces
and moves it to output.c.
This also renames container_wrap_children to workspace_wrap_children and
moves it to workspace.c. This function is only called with workspaces.
Rationale: Sticky containers are always assigned to the visible
workspace.
The basic idea here is to check the destination's output (move.c:190).
But if the command was `move container to workspace x` then a workspace
might have been created for it. We could destroy the workspace in this
case, but that results in unnecessary IPC events.
To avoid this, the logic for `move container to workspace x` has been
adjusted. It now delays creating the workspace until the end, and uses
`workspace_get_initial_output` to determine and check the output before
creating it.
The back_and_forth condition is intended to be handled in the else-if
block, but this was never reached because it remained in the first
block's conditions.
container_move_to handled moving containers to new parents, as well as
moving workspaces to new outputs.
This commit removes the workspace-moving code from this function and
introduces workspace_move_to_output. Moving workspaces using
container_move_to only happened from the move command, so it's been
implemented as a static function in that file.
Simplifying container_move_to makes it easier for me to fix some issues
in #2420.
This creates a root.c and moves bits and pieces from elsewhere into it.
* layout_init has been renamed to root_create and moved into root.c
* root_destroy has been created and is called on shutdown
* scratchpad code has been moved into root.c, because hidden scratchpad
containers are stored in the root struct
When a container is moved from, say, workspace 1 to workspace 2, workspace 2 is focused in order to arrange the windows before focus is moved back to workspace 1, which caused a workspace:focus event from workspace 2 to workspace 1 to be emitted. This commit inhibits that event.
Things worth noting:
* When a fullscreen view unmaps, the check to unset fullscreen on the
workspace has been moved out of view_unmap and into container_destroy,
because containers can be fullscreen too
* The calls to `container_reap_empty_recursive(workspace)` have been
removed from `container_set_floating`. That function reaps upwards so it
wouldn't do anything. I'm probably the one who originally added it...
* My fix (b14bd1b0b1) for the tabbed child
crash has a side effect where when you close a floating container, focus
is not given to the tiled container again. I've removed my fix and
removed the call to `send_cursor_motion` from `seat_set_focus_warp`. We
should consider calling it from somewhere earlier in the call stack.
Implements the following commands:
* move scratchpad
* scratchpad show
* [criteria] scratchpad show
Also fixes these:
* Fix memory leak when executing command with criteria
(use `list_free(views)` instead of `free(views)`)
* Fix crash when running `move to` with no further arguments
This PR changes the way we handle transactions to a more simple method.
The new method is to mark containers as dirty from low level code
(eg. arranging, or container_destroy, and eventually seat_set_focus),
then call transaction_commit_dirty which picks up those containers and
runs them through a transaction. The old methods of using transactions
(arrange_and_commit, or creating one manually) are now no longer
possible.
The highest-level code (execute_command and view implementation
handlers) will call transaction_commit_dirty, so most other code just
needs to set containers as dirty. This is done by arranging, but can
also be done by calling container_set_dirty.
We were arranging a parent which may have been deleted by the reaper,
which meant the `current` children list of the surviving parent had a
dangling pointer.
Instead, we now reap the workspace.
container_destroy was calling container_reap_empty, which calls
container_destroy and so on. Eventually the original container_destroy
would return a NULL pointer to the caller which caused a crash.
This also fixes an arrange on the wrong container when moving views in
and out of stacks.
* The arrange_foo functions are now replaced with arrange_and_commit, or
with manually created transactions and arrange_windows x2.
* The arrange functions are now only called from the highest level
functions rather than from both high level and low level functions.
* Due to the previous point, view_set_fullscreen_raw and
view_set_fullscreen are both merged into one function again.
* Floating and fullscreen are now working with transactions.
In Sway 0.15, moving a window to another workspace would cause a window on the source workspace to be focused. This restores that behavior, allowing you to quickly move a lot of windows to another workspace.
The exact semantics of this command are complicated. I'll describe each
test scenario as s-expressions. Everything assumes L_HORIZ if not
specified, but if you rotate everything 90 degrees the same test cases
hold.
```
(container (view a) (view b focus) (view c))
-> move left
(container (view b focus) (view a) (view c))
(container (view a) (view b focus) (view c))
-> move right
(container (view a) (view c) (view b focus))
(container L_VERT (view a))
(container L_HORIZ
(view b) (view c focus))
-> move up
(container L_VERT
(view a) (view c focus))
(container L_HORIZ (view b))
(workspace
(view a) (view b focus) (view c))
-> move up
(workspace [split direction flipped]
(view b focus)
(container (view a) (view c)))
(workspace
(view a) (view b focus) (view c))
-> move down
(workspace [split direction flipped]
(container (view a) (view c))
(view b focus)))
Note: outputs use wlr_output_layout instead of assuming that i+/-1 is
the next output in the move direction.
(root
(output X11-1
(workspace 1))
(output X11-2
(workspace 1 (view a focus) (view b)))))
-> move left
(root
(output X11-1
(workspace 1 (view a focus)))
(output X11-2
(workspace 1 (view b)))))
(root
(output X11-1
(workspace 1
(container (view a) (view b)))
(output X11-2
(workspace 1 (view c focus)))))
-> move left
(root
(output X11-1
(workspace 1
(container (view a) (view b))
(view c focus)))
(output X11-2
(workspace 1)))
```
Works:
- move [container|window] to workspace <name>
- Note, this should be able to move C_CONTAINER but this is untested
- move [workspace] to output [left|right|up|down|<name>]
Not implemented yet:
- move [left|right|up|down]
- move scratchpad
- move position
This commit changes how commands decide what container to act on.
Commands get the current container though `current_container`, a global
defined in sway/commands.c. If a criteria is given before a command,
then the following command will be run once for every container the
criteria matches with a reference to the matching container in
'current_container'. Commands should use this instead of
`get_focused_container()` from now on.
This commit also fixes a few (minor) mistakes made in implementing marks
such as non-escaped arrows in sway(5) and calling the "mark" command
"floating" by accident. It also cleans up `criteria.c` in a few places.
This commit lets the 'move' command apply to floating containers as well
as tiled ones. The command may be appended with a number of pixels and
then optionally the string `px` (like '10 px') in order to move the
container more or fewer than the standard ten pixels.
Add swayc_change_layout function, which changes either layout or
workspace_layout, depending on the container type. Workspace being
always L_HORIZ makes this much more i3-compatible.
