Rather than calculate it speculatively with the current properties
which may be too new or too out of date, make sure it always fits
with the proper definition. We update it when we update the toplevel
window for X11, and when a Wayland surface is committed with a newly
attached buffer.
With get_input_region existing, get_input_rect is a misnomer. Really,
it's about the geometry of the output surface, and it's only used that
way in the compositor code.
Way back when in GNOME 3.2, get_input_rect was added when we added
invisible borders. get_outer_rect was always synonymous with server-side
geometry of the toplevel. get_outer_rect was used for both user-side
policy (the "frame rect") and to get the geometry of the window.
Invisible borders were meant to extend the input region of the frame
window silently. Since most users of get_outer_rect cared about the
frame rect, we kept that the same and added a new method, get_input_rect
to get the full rect of the framed window with all invisible borders for
input kept on.
As time went on and CSD and Wayland became a reality, the relationship
between the server-side geometry and the "frame rect" became more
complicated, as can be evidenced by the recent commits. Since clients
don't tend to be framed anymore, they set their own input region.
get_buffer_rect is also sort of a poor name, since X11 doesn't really
have buffers, but we don't really have many other alternatives.
This doesn't change any of the code, nor the meaning. It will always
refer to the rectangle where the toplevel should be placed.
All of the users of get_input_rect don't actually want a synthesized
input rect based off of the current margins. What they really want is
the last-configured size of the toplevel window.
Since we don't properly track this anymore in the generic MetaWindow,
use XGetWindowAttributes to fetch a server-side rectangle. This is a
bad layer violation, but since the window geometry code will have to
be rewritten anyway for the Wayland set_window_geometry, let's just
push a hacky fix for now.
Struts are defined in terms of screen edges, so expand the rectangles
we get via set_builtin_struts() accordingly. However we do want to
allow chrome on edges between monitors, in which case the expansion
would render an entire monitor unusable - don't expand the rectangles
in that case, which means we will only use them for constraining
windows but ignore them for the client-visible _NET_WORKAREA property.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=730527
Like the _NET_WM_STRUT/_NET_WM_STRUT_PARTIAL client properties,
_NET_WORKAREA is defined in terms of screen geometry rather than
taking individual monitors into account. However we do want to
allow system chrome to be attached to a monitor edge rather than
a screen edges under some circumstances. As not all clients can
be assumed to deal gracefully with the resulting workarea, use
those "struts" only internally for constraining windows, but
ignore them when exporting _NET_WORKAREA.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=730527
Since commit 8b2b65246a, we assume that the compositor always
exists. Alas, the assumption is wrong - the compositor is currently
initialized after the screen, but meta_screen_new() itself may
call a compositor function if initialization involves a workspace
switch (which will happen when meta_workspace_activate() is called
more than once and for different workspaces - or in other words,
when _NET_CURRENT_DESKTOP is set and not 0).
So carefully split out the offending bits and only call them after
the compositor has been initialized.

If we have a tree of a window, a non-attached dialog, and then an
attached dialog, we want to move the second window, not the attached
dialog or the topmost. In other words, we want to move the first
non-attached window, or the first "freefloating window".
This happens in Firefox, whose Preferences dialog is freefloating,
but suboptions of those are modal dialogs.
Stupid apps fullscreen themselves by resizing the client window to
monitor size. A monitor-sized frame rect on the other hand is perfectly
normal on monitors without struts - stop force-fullscreening those
and catch the real baddies instead.

When opening the window menu without an associated control - e.g.
by right-clicking the titlebar or by keyboard - using coordinates
for the menu position is appropriate. However when the menu is
associated with a window button, the expected behavior in the
shell can be implemented much easier with the full button geometry:
the menu will point to the center of the button's bottom edge
rather than align to the left/right side of the titlebar as it
does now, and the clickable area where a release event does not
dismiss the menu will match the actual clickable area in mutter.
So add an additional show_window_menu_for_rect() function and
use it when opening the menu from a button.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=731058
This can happen since we select for events on the root window, and
clients themselves might not select for input, meaning the X server
will bubble up. Just do nothing and ignore the event in this case.
This should hopefully fix some of the
Window manager warning: Log level 8: meta_window_raise: assertion '!window->override_redirect' failed
Window manager warning: Log level 8: meta_window_focus: assertion '!window->override_redirect' failed
spam that people have been seeing.
Since we often call meta_window_move_resize_now immediately after
mapping a window, we need to make sure that the placed coordinates
are saved in the unconstrained_rect. Ideally, placement positions
wouldn't be part of the constraints system, but instead are just
done inside meta_window_move_resize_internal as part of a special
path.
We're still working out the kinks of one large-scale refactor, so
it's best not to do another one while the first is going on. This
would be a great future cleanup, though: untangling constraints
and placement, alongside the force_placement state machine and
friends.
For Wayland, we want to have everything possible in terms of the frame
rect, or "window geometry" as the Wayland protocol calls it, in order
to properly eliminate some flashing when changing states to fullscreen
or similar.
For this, we need to heavily refactor how the code is structured, and
make it so that meta_window_move_resize_internal is specified in terms
of the frame rect coordinate space, and transforming all entry points
to meta_window_move_resize_internal.
This is a big commit that's hard to tear apart. I tried to split it
as best I can, but there's still just a large amount of changes that
need to happen at once.
Expect some regressions from this. Sorry for any temporary regression
that this might cause.
We have two different coordinate spaces here. One is the rectangle
returned by meta_window_get_frame_rect, which is called the "frame
rect" or "the window geometry", which includes visible frame borders
but not invisible frame borders. The other is "frame->rect" which
corresponds to the frame's server geometry. That is, it includes
both visible and invisible frame borders.
These two were of course the same until we introduced invisible
frame borders, and an executive decision was made to make
meta_window_get_frame_rect return the rectangle bounding the
visible portions of the frame.
As time went on, the "frame rect" turned out to be more useful when
making decisions upon, since the user often doesn't think about the
invisible window geometry as part of the window.
We already calculate what amounts to the "frame rect" in the theme
code, so just change META_CORE_GET_FRAME_RECT to consume that
directly.
Since we're going to be calling meta_window_get_frame_rect in here
soon, I'd rather it be one method call, rather than two. We can't
put it at the toplevel, since that might cause infinite recursion
(e.g. meta_core_get calls meta_window_get_frame_rect calls
meta_ui_get_frame_borders calls meta_core_get, ...)
Now that meta_window_move_resize and friends act in frame rect
coordinates, we need to convert the initial grab_anchor_window_pos
storage to be in frame rect coordinates as well.
This makes Alt+F7 / Alt+F8 work respectively under X11 nested mode.
For the native backend implementation, we'll need a special Clutter
function, so don't implement that for now.
The last commit added support for the "appmenu" button in decorations,
but didn't actually implement it. Add a new MetaWindowMenuType parameter
to the show_window_menu () functions and use it to ask the compositor
to display the app menu when the new button is activated.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=730752
We want to synchronize the button layouts of our server side
decorations and GTK+'s client side ones. However each currently
may contain buttons not supported by the other, which makes this
unnecessarily tricky.
So add support for a new "appmenu" button in the layout, to display
the fallback app menu in the decorations.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=730752
meta_window_get_position() returns the client rect position, which
we then pass to meta_window_move_frame. Just use the existing frame
rect coordinates.
The requested_rect is a strange name for it, because it's not actually
the rect that the user or client requested all the time: in the case of
a simple move or a simple resize, we calculate some of the fields
ourselves.
To the MetaWindow subclass implementations, it just means "the rect
before we constrained it", so just use the name unconstrained_rect.
This also makes it match the name of the MetaWindow field.
It looks weird to have Alt+Space pop up under the cursor instead
of the top-left corner of the window, and the Wayland request will
pass through the coordinates as well.
Add it to the compositor interface, and extend the
_GTK_SHOW_WINDOW_MENU ClientMessage to support it as well.
On X, basing the check whether the pointer is on the window on
Clutter events does not work, as the relevant events are handled
by GDK instead.
So add an X-specific window_has_pointer() implementation to also
fix mouse mode when running as X compositor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=730541
Using clutter_actor_has_pointer() to test whether the pointer is
on the window makes for clean and nice-looking code, but does not
work in practice - ClutterActor:has-pointer is not recursive, so
we miss when the pointer is on the associated surface actor rather
than the actor itself.
Instead, check whether the window actor contains the core pointer's
pointer actor, which actually works.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=730541
Otherwise, the X server might read the backend's connection before
GTK+'s, meaning that it sees the XIGrabKeycode requests before the
CreateWindow.
This fixes keybindings on windows not working immediately.
Thanks to Rui Matos <tiagomatos@gmail.com> and
Julien Cristau <jcristau@debian.org> for helping track down the issue.
Realistically, the user rect contains the unconstrained window
rectangle coordinates that we want to be displaying, in case
something in the constraints change.
Rename it to the "unconstrained_rect", and change the code to always
save it, regardless of current state.
When metacity was originally being built, the purpose of the user
rect was a lot less clear. The code only saved it on user actions,
with various other calls to save_user_window_placement() and a force
mechanism sprinkled in to avoid windows being snapped back to odd
places when constraints changed.
This could lead to odd bugs. For instance, if the user uses some
extension which automatically tiles windows and didn't pass
user_action=TRUE, and then the struts changed, the window would be
placed back at the last place a user moved it to, rather than where
the window was tiled to.
The META_IS_USER_ACTION flag is still used in the constraints code
to determine whether we should allow shoving windows offscreen, so
we can't remove it completely, but we should think about splitting
out the constrainment policies it commands for a bit more
fine-grained control.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=726714
Now that we don't have to regrab to change the cursor, since it's
simply the cursor on the root window, all we have to do is update
the cursor on the screen.
We expect that meta_screen_set_cursor while grabbed will properly
set the cursor on the root window. Make sure this works by simply
always using the root cursor when we have an active grab.
It isn't necessary. As an X11 compositor, we'll only see the event
if we have the grab on the window, anyway.
This was causing issues moving windows as a Wayland compositor.
When we're a Wayland compositor, we get all the events, no exceptions,
so we don't need to grab.
This was masking focusing and raising issues under nested that showed
up under native.
If we apply a prediction immediately instead of queueing, we should
also free the operation immediately.
If we discard the prediction queue because we resync fully, we
need to free each operation too.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=729732
If we exit early as not handled, then the normal process_event
handler will fire, and trigger the overlay-key binding. As that's
a special binding that doesn't have a handler, trying to trigger
that handler will crash mutter.
Instead of returning early, just check for xdisplay every time
we try to drive the X grab state machine. We really need a better
solution for this on the Wayland side.
Since commit 6e8d1d79d, move operations are always performed for
the (toplevel) parent of all transient, which is just plain silly
if the dialog is not actually attached to its parent (either because
the dialog is not modal or the setting is disabled).
We need the old rect for two purposes: to find the x/y in a resize-only
action, and to pass into the constraints code for nefarious purposes.
The constraints code takes a frame rectangle, so we convert the original
client rect into a frame rect, but never convert it back since it's
unused for the rest of the function.
Instead of playing games with the variables, just have two,
separately-scoped variables. One is the client rect, the other is the
frame rect.
For gravity-based resizing, we need to make sure that the requested
rectangle has the proper x/y position given by the gravity resize,
rather than the bogus root_x_nw / root_y_nw parameter.
Make the test for this more explicit.
With our surface_mapped strategy, implement_showing might not
change whether the window has been shown or not, and thus we
might end up clearing pending_compositor_effect before the window
is mapped.
Only clear pending_compositor_effect when the effect has actually
been used.
Remove extend_by_frame and unextend_by_frame. Use a dumb hack in
window.c to translate into window geometry in back. We'll soon track
all rectangles in MetaWindow in terms of the window geometry.
Grab operations are now always taken on the backend connection, and
this breaks GTK+'s event handling.
Instead of taking a grab op, just do the handling ourselves. The
GTK+ connection will get an implicit grab, which means pointer /
keyboard events won't be sent to the rest of mutter, which is good.
Now that we grab devices on the X11 connection, we can run into
cross-connection issues. Since GTK+ frames are on the UI connection,
they'll get the passive grab when we click on them. Forcibly ungrab
on GTK+'s connection before attempting to take a grab on the backend
connection ourselves.
It's been long enough. We can mandate support for these, at least
at build-time. The code doesn't actually compile without either
of these, so just consider that unsupported.
Now that we have a global MetaScreen, we can simply have a global
MetaCursorTracker as well. Keep the get_for_screen() API around for
compatibility, though.
The Alt+F7 and Alt+F8 keybinds for moving and resizing windows allow you
to move and resize the window off the screen, so allow the same for the
menu items as well, since they're marked with the same accelerator.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=728617
This doesn't particularly matter, since we fall through into a default
case that does nothing right below, but this matches the other paths
and it prevents us from falling into a trap if we add other event types
below.
If we start a grab op from a keybind / menu, we'll handle the
ButtonPress and drop the grab then, never giving the window a chance
to handle what it needs to do before the grab is dropped.
This means that if you use Alt+F7 to move a window around, move it
to a side-tiling or maximization area, and then left-click, it will
just hang there in the sky.
The entire point of it was to check whether the window was on the
right screen. Since we don't handle multiple screens anymore, we
don't need to check anything anymore.
Looking at the code paths where is_mouse / is_keyboard are used,
all of them should never be run when dealing with a COMPOSITOR
grab op, since they're filtered out above or the method is just
never run during that time.
It's confusing that COMPOSITOR is in here, and requires us to
be funny with other places in code, so just take it out.
We track changes to windows fullscreen state and stacking order
to determine a monitor's in-fullscreen state, but missed the
obvious case of moving a fullscreen window between monitors.

Commit 585fdd781c not only removed the tabpopup, but set invalid
handlers (a.k.a. NULL) for those shortcuts; add back handling of
basic handling of those shortcuts by switching instantly without any
popups.

dx/dy should be against the regular window's rect, and need to
be ignored when we're resizing. Instead, we use gravity to anchor
the window's new rectangle when resizing.
