...p environment and removed the corresponding bindings from core. This change fixes main menu and run dialog bindings for KDE users as those previously were conflicting between compiz and KDE. Gnome users upgrading should make sure to enable this plugin. Added support for _NET_WM_FULLSCREEN_MONITORS EWMH hint. Added support for reading the icon hint from the WM_HINTS property if _NET_WM_ICON is not available. Update Gnome support for Gnome 2.24. Added options to scale plugin that allow "toggle type" behaviour for key and button bindings. Several memory leak fixes. Adjusted gtk-window...

...a compositing manager specification. It is currently based upon the KWin/Plasma interaction specified in the windoweffects namespace[1]. I basically just renamed all _KDE prefixes to _NET_CM. I want that in the end this becomes a new freedesktop.org specification to be used in addition to the EWMH specification. As I am not sure if all composited window managers are interested in such a specification I decided to discuss this idea first with kwin, compiz (as they implement our proprietary hints) and plasma, our most important stakeholder. The result of the discussion should be proposed a...

FYI, I have put up a forum post [1] where I am going to maintain information about the netwm api for the dbus plugin. I have gone through the EWMH spec [2] and broken it down into a dbus compatible api, it seems to be good and roughly compatible with the existing compiz one. I think everything should be self explanitory, if there are any comments or if there is anything I have misunderstood or missed I would like to hear. I have done the ro...

...tried to create an account on bugs.opencompositing.org to report this, but I never got an e-mail back from the account-creation process. Is this the right URI to be reporting bugs for Compiz? Anyway, I've found a couple of bugs that affect applications that use the _NET_WM_FULLSCREEN_MONITORS EWMH hint. I believe these are regressions since Compiz 0.8.0, but am not 100% sure. So, I've posted a simple program here: http://pastebin.ca/1426916 that demonstrates the following problems: 1) When an application requests a topology change via _NET_WM_FULLSCREEN_MONITORS, Compiz does honor t...

...iya Compiz list! I am a Linux UI dude for VMware as my day job and am working on improving things in Workstation and Player with regards to multiple monitors on Linux. Some of my colleagues worked with the xdg/wm-spec folks just earlier this year to get the _NET_WM_FULLSCREEN_MONITORS hint into the EWMH spec to address the needs applications have in needing to be both fullscreen and spanning multiple monitors at the same time. Previously, we had some hacks to get Window Managers to do this, but it was fragile and brittle to say the least. Anyway, _NET_WM_FULLSCREEN_MONITORS is the right solution a...

Hello everyone, what I am trying to achieve seems rather simple. I would like to enumerate all open windows with respect to their current workspace. The problem seems to be that Compiz does not differentiate between workspaces as other (EWMH compliant?) window managers do. I'm not even sure whether this is a bug or a design decision. Let me explain this with an example: Running Compiz gives me this: $ wmctrl -l 0x02a00001 0 N/A N/A 0x02a00002 0 N/A launcher 0x01a00005 0 max-station Kontaktliste [...] But I thin...

I'm developing a new plugin, based on switcher. I have a window created with XCreateWindow. Can I put a window totally on top, even over panels? These are my atoms: state[nState++] = s->display->winStateAboveAtom; state[nState++] = s->display->winStateStickyAtom; state[nState++] = s->display->winStateSkipTaskbarAtom; state[nState++] =

Hi, I made a simple patch which makes switcher's window a splash window (_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_SPLASH). This way I can easily add effects for it. The window is a splash window, so why not use this type instead of Unknown? Beryl's switcher window is a Splash window too. Is there a reason why Compiz uses Uknown for it?

Hello, am I the only one experiencing some bugs with the latest git checkout in the gnome switcher and gnome window list ? When I click on one of the workspaces on gnome's switcher the cube doesn't rotate, but the windows disappear. I don't know how to describe it well, but it seems like the 4 faces of the cube in compiz and my 4 workspaces on gnome-switcher are now totally unrelated

Hi, I'm running ubuntu edgy with compiz, switched from gentoo to ubuntu for faster updates (emerge is way slow with source builds..). So far, I like it. but that is not the issue I'm addressing now. I've noted that with both these machines, when I'm doing something that tints the whole screen to gray (like trying to logout, or using some software that prompts for sudo

Hi, Using Xgl, when a window is unminimized, sometimes (especially with Firefox), the window contents are not immediately visible (partially or completely) until an unminimize animation is completed. That is, sometimes there are empty (transparent) rectangles within the window (maybe corresponding to some Mozilla controls), and sometimes the whole window is empty (only the decoration is visible).

Greetings! I'm currently gathering information that helps software in assessing the user's context. One very important such data would be the application that the user is currently working with which mostly is roughly equivalent to the name of the window that has the focus. Unfortunately I'm at a loss even about which API to ask for this information. As personally I am using compiz as

Hi, With some help from Quinn_Storm, iXce, maniac103, mikedee and KristianLy :), I've managed to modify switcher.c and make a new plugin: thumbnail. The plugin shows thumbnails of windows when cursor is moved over a task button in taskbar. Screenshot: http://pix.nofrag.com/b0/7a/051d45e25bfffed09eeb9b00e383.jpeg Download:

...the server if d->below is not valid. Optimization. Don't use window found previously. Added support for _NET_WM_MOVERESIZE_CANCEL. On selected window changes, always clear out label first to make sure a text-changed signal is emitted to atk. Add definitions for EWMH source indication values. Pass client type of _NET_MOVERESIZE_WINDOW message sender to validate function. Bump core_ABIVERSION. Fix fade in effect. Replace return to exit loop by break. Limit number of damage rects in one screen repaint. Allow mouse initiated res...

...n make sure that the look of the window decorations match the current theme used by the toolkit. Events generated from the frame window, like a button click on the titlebar is handled by the decorator and any window manager actions in response to an event on the frame window is carried out by using EWMH [1] in a much similar way to how a pager or a task-list works and window action menus can be created using the toolkit. Current State The current gnome-window-decorator implementation contains hard-coded drawing functions that uses cairo, mostly because this was the fastest way to get something...

...the correct desktop directory by default. * Fixed inconsistent icon sizes in switcher plugin. * Improved constraining of window size and position in move, resize, and wobbly. * Ported KDE4 window decorator to KDE 4.3. * Added support for _NET_REQUEST_FRAME_EXTENTS and _NET_SUPPORT_FULL_PLACEMENT EWMH hints. plugins-main: ------------- * New plugins: - KDE Compatibility (provides thumbnails for the Plasma taskbar). - Title Bar Info (shows additional information in the window title, such as the remote machine name and if the window is owned by the root user). * Various crash and memory l...
