Closes #5605 Text Subpixel antialiasing is : - FreeType makes glyph bitmaps containing coverage percentage for each subpixel, instead of pixel - Then draw by performing the blend for each subpixel, instead of pixel (e.g. dual-source blending in opengl) And there's only one Alpha channel, so this extra coverage data can't leave Cairo to reach the compositor through there. Therefore, it can't work as intended if output text alpha != bar background alpha. Disable it for those cases, enable it elsewhere As for color emojis, they are RGBA bitmaps. If drawn with text alpha=1.0 and background alpha=1.0 (should be completely opaque bar), then with 'CAIRO_OPERATOR_SOURCE' then texels with alpha < 1.0 result in a blend with whatever's behind the bar, instead of the bar background |

Installation
From Packages
Sway is available in many distributions. Try installing the "sway" package for yours.
If you're interested in packaging sway for your distribution, stop by the IRC channel or shoot an email to sir@cmpwn.com for advice.
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 *
- pcre
- 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, 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).
