When querying for an adjacent output we now need an absolute position in order to know which adjacent output that matches. (The position is either the current mouse position or the center of the currently focused container, depending on context.) If two outputs have one edge each that at least partially align with each other they now count as adjacent. Seamless mouse is affected by this and now properly moves and positions itself between outputs with "uneven" placement (as long as they have at least some part of the edge adjacent to each other). When focusing or moving a container in a specified direction the center of the current focused container decides where to look for an adjacent output. So if e.g. an output has two adjacent outputs to the right and a "focus right" command is issued then it's the placement of the currently focused container that decides which output actually gets focused. Also, if an output has at least one output adjacent in some direction but the entire edge is not covered (ie. it has "holes" with no outputs), then the algorithm will choose the output that is closest to the currently focused container (this does not apply to seamless mouse, the pointer will just stop at the edge in that case). |

sway
"SirCmpwn's Wayland window manager" is a work in progress i3-compatible window manager for Wayland. Read the FAQ.
Rationale
I use i3 on xorg. Wayland is coming, and i3way still has zero lines of source code after two years.
Status
Installation
From Packages
sway is not supported by many distributions yet. Here's a list of packages available for you to install:
For other distros, see this wiki page.
Compiling from Source
Install dependencies:
- cmake
- wlc
- wayland
- xwayland
- asciidoc
- pcre
- json-c
- pango
- cairo
Run these commands:
cmake .
make
sudo make install
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 /etc/sway/config
to
~/.config/sway/config
. Run man 5 sway
for information on the configuration.
Running
Run this from a tty (instead of starting x):
sway
If you run it from within x, it will spawn x windows instead of using your hardware directly (useful for development).
