Add a man page for metacity. Original version taken from Debian
(written by Thom May and Akira Tagoh) and updated by Luke Morton
and Philip O'Brien. Necessary auto-fu supplied by Philip O'Brien.
Fixes#321279.
2006-02-11 Elijah Newren <newren gmail com>
* src/stack.h (enum MetaStackLayer):
* src/stack.c (get_standalone_layer):
actually use META_LAYER_TOP but just manually make it equal to
META_LAYER_DOCK. Add a note point to the EWMH for why we do this.
#330717
2006-02-10 Thomas Thurman <thomas thurman org uk>
Avoid a memory leak when checking which workspace(s) a window is
on. Fixes#322059.
* src/workspace.h (struct MetaWorkspace):
* src/workspace.c (meta_workspace_new, meta_workspace_free):
added list_containing_self member to MetaWorkspace
* src/window.c (meta_window_get_workspaces): use
window->workspace->list_containing_self instead of allocating (and
leaking) such a list on the fly.
2006-02-09 Thomas Thurman <thomas thurman org uk>
* src/testboxes.c (test_regions_okay, test_clamping_to_region):
add messages to explain that warnings are harmless
2006-02-03 Thomas Thurman <thomas thurman org uk>

events with no timestamp are received, rather than failing an
assertion
2006-01-30 Elijah Newren <newren gmail com>
* src/display.[ch] (struct MetaDisplay), meta_display_open,
meta_display_set_input_focus_window,
meta_display_focus_the_no_focus_window): Track the active_screen,
(event_callback): If the mouse enters a window on a different
screen, activate the default window on the new screen. May need
to be modified for click-to-focus; we'll wait for feedback. Fixes
#319348.
2006-01-23 Elijah Newren <newren gmail com>
* src/display.c (meta_display_check_threshold_reached): change the
order of the ||'ed items in the if to avoid using an uninitialized
value

Patch from Christian Kirbach to prevent a critical warning crasher
when switching themes. #327847.
* src/theme.c (meta_theme_free): since themes are only constructed
as needed and may be NULL, check for that before freeing theme
hash tables
2006-01-21 Elijah Newren <newren gmail com>
* src/common.h (enum MetaActionDoubleClickTitlebar):
* src/frames.c (meta_frames_button_press_event):

none action. #300210.
2006-01-20 Elijah Newren <newren gmail com>
* src/constraints.c (setup_constraint_info): fixed_directions is
only meant for explicit user interactions; disable it for
everything else. There are other bugs and improvements that could
be made with fixed_directions that I should be filing too, but at
least put a FIXME there for now--I'm so lame. Fixes#327822.
2006-01-20 Elijah Newren <newren gmail com>
Avoid flashing when closing a maximized window. Fixes#317254.
* src/window.c (unmaximize_window_before_freeing): new function
that just fixes the net_wm_state and sends a configure_notify,
(meta_window_free): use unmaximize_window_before_freeing() instead

Patch from Søren to fix some reading-from-free'd-data errors.
#327575
* src/edge-resistance.c (meta_display_cleanup_edges): store the
edges in a hash table so that we can still read their values
within the loop from the other array they are stored in, then free
them all at the end.
2006-01-20 Elijah Newren <newren gmail com>
Fix various initialization and default issues, especially for
--disable-gconf. Make --disable-gconf actually work. #326661.

changed in this file, src/prefs.c may need to be updated to
reflect the change

non-gconf case,
(meta_prefs_change_workspace_name): actually change the name for
the non-gconf case too
2006-01-20 Elijah Newren <newren gmail com>
More careful error handling of values returned by GConf. Fixes
#326615.

Prevent rapidly repeated visual bells from hanging metacity.
Fixes#322032.
* src/display.h (struct MetaDisplay): add a last_bell_time field,
(XSERVER_TIME_IS_BEFORE_ASSUMING_REAL_TIMESTAMPS macro,
XERVER_TIME_IS_BEFORE macro): add parentheses around usage of
macro parameter
* src/display.c (meta_display_open): initialize last_bell_time,
(event_callback): don't allow more than one bell per second
2006-01-20 Elijah Newren <newren gmail com>
Patch from Björn Lindqvist to fix#98340.

* src/compositor.c (meta_compositor_manage_screen):
g_object_unref() rather than ws_region_unref().
2006-01-16 Elijah Newren <newren gmail com>
* src/window-props.c: manually define HOST_NAME_MAX if not already
defined to fix Solaris compilation issue. Caught by Damien
Carbery, patch from Havoc. #326745
2006-01-15 Kyle Ambroff <kambroff@csus.edu>
* src/workspace.c (focus_ancestor_or_mru_window):
If no valid window is found in the MRU list, then set focus to the
desktop window. (#317405)
2006-01-15 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
Fix accidental overzealous focus holding by the terminal
introduced by the original patch in bug 326159. Windows launched

focus now. #326159.
* src/display.c (meta_display_open, event_callback):
* src/display.h (struct MetaDisplay):
* src/keybindings.c (process_event):
* src/window.c (meta_window_set_user_time):
Add a new allow_terminal_deactivation field to MetaDisplay and use
it to track whether the user's last action was interaction with
the terminal or some outside action (global keybinding, clicking
on a dock, etc.) likely to launch a new window.
* src/window.c (window_state_on_map):
Allow the focus switch from a terminal to something else if
allow_terminal_deactiviation is true.

distros are patching it in anyway. See #326156.
* src/metacity.schemas.in: add the new gconf key and explanation
* src/prefs.[ch] (#define KEY_RAISE_ON_CLICK, static gboolean
raise_on_click, update_raise_on_click, meta_prefs_init,
change_notify, meta_prefs_get_raise_on_click,
meta_preference_to_string):
Add all the normal preference handling stuff for this new
raise-on-click option.
* src/core.c (meta_core_show_window_menu):
* src/display.c (event_callback, meta_display_begin_grab_op):
* src/window.c (window_activate, meta_window_configure_request, ):
Only raise the window if in raise_on_click mode.
* src/display.c (meta_display_begin_grab_op,
meta_display_end_grab_op, meta_display_check_threshold_reached):
* src/display.h (struct MetaDisplay):
* src/window.c (meta_window_handle_mouse_grab_op_event):
if not in raise-on-click mode only raise on button release if the
click didn't start a move or resize operation; needs a few extra
MetaDisplay fields to handle this
* src/core.c (meta_core_user_lower_and_unfocus):
no need to do the MRU shuffling if not maintaining the stacking
order == MRU order invariant
* src/frames.c (meta_frames_button_press_event):

remove an unneeded window raising that is already handled elsewhere
2006-01-10 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
Don't "steal" focus from terminal windows for new window mappings
as the difference in usage between terminals and other apps seems
to suggest this difference in treatment. See #326159 for details,
feedback welcome.
* src/window.[ch] (__window_is_terminal): New function, currently
an ugly hack and should be replaced by a new property set by
applications if the behavior works to our liking,
(window_state_on_map): don't transfer focus to new windows from
terminals unless the new window is a transient of the focused
terminal
* src/keybindigns.c (handle_panel_keybinding): panel run dialog
keybinding should be counted as an explicit transfer of focus to
the new window, so override the
don't-transfer-focus-from-terminals in this case
2006-01-09 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
More thorough handling of source indication. Part of #326041.
* src/window.c (window_activate): new function based off the old
meta_window_activate but which also takes source indication into
account, (meta_window_active): just call window_activate() with
the necessary source indication to get the behavior wanted,
(meta_window_client_message): check source indication too for
_net_active_window messages
* src/window.h (enum MetaClientType): convenience enum for source
indication handling
2006-01-09 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
Make the taskbar less flash happy and fix up some related stacking
issues. #326035.
* src/window.c (windows_overlap): new function,
(meta_window_show): if a window is denied focus but doesn't
overlap with the focus window there is no need to set the demands
attention hint nor stack that window below the focus window,
(meta_window_get_outer_rect): we're not modifying the window so
declare it to be const
2006-01-09 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
Fix window outline for minimized windows when using alt-esc.
#325092.
* src/display.c (meta_display_begin_grab_op): Specify the showing
type of tabbing operation (Alt tab vs. alt-esc) in addition to the
listing type of tabbing operation (docks vs normal windows) to
meta_screen_ensure_tab_popup().
* src/display.h (enum MetaTabShowType): new convenience enum
* src/screen.[ch] (meta_screen_ensure_tab_popup): require the
showing type be specified in addition to the tabbing type; put the
outline around the window instead of the icon when in alt-esc
mode.
2006-01-09 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
Fix reduced resources resize handling for windows with sizing or
resizing constraints. #325774.
* src/display.c (meta_display_end_grab_op): Provide constraints.c
with the correct gravity information.
2006-01-09 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
Be more strict about what is considered a valid region with
partial struts. Fixes#322070.
* src/boxes.[ch]:
(meta_rectangle_expand_region_conditionally):
new function behaving like meta_rectangle_expand_region() but
which only does so when the width and height of the rectangles
meet a certain threshold
(replace_rect_with_list):
Remove a compiling warning
* src/constraints.c:
(constrain_partially_onscreen):
provide minimum thresholds in each direction for the size of the
rectangles to avoid cases where only a single pixel thick layer of
a window might be showing
2006-01-09 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
* src/bell.c (meta_bell_notify_frame_destroy): Use the right
function to remove the timeout so that we don't crash if removed

2006-01-09 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
* src/edge-resistance.c (apply_edge_resistance): Remove the
"pull-away" edge resistance. Fixes another of the zillions of

2006-01-09 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
* src/edge-resistance.c (apply_edge_resistance): Revert to the old

also fixes another of the zillions of issues covered in #321905.
2006-01-09 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
* src/edge-resistance.c (apply_edge_resistance): Remove the
timeout resistance at screen/xinerama edges for the whiners.

covered in #321905.
2006-01-09 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
* src/edge-resistance.c (apply_edge_resistance): Make extra

Fixes another of the zillions of issues covered in #321905.
2006-01-09 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
Allow edge resistance at both sides of a window and also when
edges don't overlap but are a single pixel away from doing so.
Fixes one of the zillions of issues covered in #321905.
* src/boxes.[ch]:
(meta_rectangle_edges_align):
new function to handle the overlap or off by one determining
whether edge resistance should kick in for an edge.
(meta_rectangle_edge_cmp_ignore_type):
new function to sort edges but ignore the type so that e.g. left &
right edges of windows can be used interchangeably.
(meta_rectangle_edge_cmp):
now uses meta_rectangle_edge_cmp_ignore_type() to do most the work
and just adds an extra condition
* src/edge-resistance.c:
(find_nearest_position):
use meta_rectangle_edges_align() now to determine whether the
edges align,
(apply_edge_resistance, apply_edge_resistance_to_each_side):
have the edge resistance kick in if either the beginning or ending
positions would cause overlap in the given direction -- fixes an
uncommon but annoying corner case,
(apply_edge_snapping, apply_edge_resistance_to_each_side,
meta_display_cleanup_edges,
stupid_sort_requiring_extra_pointer_dereference, cache_edges):
mix edges from both sides now

* src/window.c (update_resize): && should have been ||.
2005-12-27 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
Make the workspace switcher work with dual-head (non-xinerama)
setups. Fixes#319423.
* src/display.c (meta_display_open, event_callback,

the screens.
2005-12-27 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
* src/tabpopup.c (meta_ui_tab_popup_new): since the title is going
to be treated as markup, escape it. Fixes#324846.
2005-12-12 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
* src/window.c (update_net_frame_extents): make the debugging
message actually correspond to the code. Patch from Björn
Lindqvist. Fixes#322051.
2005-11-22 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
Don't allow removing a window from maximized or fullscreened state
to place the titlebar under the top panel. Fixes#322075.

comments now that I know a little more, modify the code just
slightly to clarify that this is NOT a manual user move/resize
operation
* src/window.c (meta_window_unmaximize,
meta_window_unmake_fullscreen,
meta_window_shove_titlebar_onscreen):
don't claim that these are manual user move/resize operations
2005-11-21 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
* src/constraints.c (constrain_partially_onscreen): Relax the
partially onscreen constraint to allow the titlebar to touch the

the same as the old version. Fixes#322071.
2005-11-21 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
* src/constraints.c (place_window_if_needed): When updating the
xinerama due to placement, update which maximal/spanning rect set
to use as well
2005-11-21 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
* doc/strut-and-related-updating.txt: It took me a little while to
figure out how struts & workareas are updated and to learn what
all the related functions were used for so I thought I'd clean up
my notes and make them available. This will probably be more
useful now since regions and edges are also computed and stored at
the some time as the workareas.
2005-11-20 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
* src/constraints.c (place_window_if_needed): compute the frame
geometry due to maximization only after actually maximizing.
Fixes#321902.
2005-11-21 Davyd Madeley <davyd@fugro-fsi.com.au>
* src/edge-resistance.c (meta_display_compute_resistance_and_snap):

64-bit architectures without warning.
2005-11-19 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
* src/edge-resistance.c (apply_edge_resistance): differentiate
between movement towards an edge and movement away from one. Pick
smaller constants for movement away from an edge.
2005-11-18 Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>
Merge of all the changes on the constraints_experiments branch.
This is just a summary, to get the full ChangeLog of those
changes (approx. 2000 lines):
cvs -q -z3 update -Pd -r constraints_experiments
cvs -q -z3 diff -pu -r CONSTRAINTS_EXPERIMENTS_BRANCHPOINT ChangeLog
Bugs fixed:
unfiled - constraints.c is overly complicated[1]
unfiled - constraints.c is not robust when all constraints
cannot simultaneously be met (constraints need to be
prioritized)
unfiled - keep-titlebar-onscreen constraint is decoration
unaware (since get_outermost_onscreen_positions()
forgets to include decorations)
unfiled - keyboard snap-moving and snap-resizing snap to hidden
edges
109553 - gravity w/ simultaneous move & resize doesn't work
113601 - maximize vertical and horizontal should toggle and be
constrained
122196 - windows show up under vertical panels
122670 - jerky/random resizing of window via keyboard[2]
124582 - keyboard and mouse snap-resizing and snap-moving
erroneously moves the window multidimensionally
136307 - don't allow apps to resize themselves off the screen
(*cough* filechooser *cough*)
142016, 143784 - windows should not span multiple xineramas
unless placed there by the user
143145 - clamp new windows to screensize and force them
onscreen, if they'll fit
144126 - Handle pathological strut lists sanely[3]
149867 - fixed aspect ratio windows are difficult to resize[4]
152898 - make screen edges consistent; allow easy slamming of
windows into the left, right, and bottom edges of the
screen too.
154706 - bouncing weirdness at screen edge with keyboard moving
or resizing
156699 - avoid struts when placing windows, if possible (nasty
a11y blocker)
302456 - dragging offscreen too restrictive
304857 - wireframe moving off the top of the screen is misleading
308521 - make uni-directional resizing easier with
alt-middle-drag and prevent the occasional super
annoying resize-the-wrong-side(s) behavior
312007 - snap-resize moves windows with a minimum size
constraint
312104 - resizing the top of a window can cause the bottom to
grow
319351 - don't instantly snap on mouse-move-snapping, remove
braindeadedness of having order of releasing shift and
releasing button press matter so much
[1] fixed in my opinion, anyway.
[2] Actually, it's not totally fixed--it's just annoying
instead of almost completely unusable. Matthias had a
suggestion that may fix the remainder of the problems (see
http://tinyurl.com/bwzuu).
[3] This bug was originally about not-quite-so-pathological
cases but was left open for the worse cases. The code from
the branch handles the remainder of the cases mentioned in
this bug.
[4] Actually, although it's far better there's still some minor
issues left: a slight drift that's only noticeable after
lots of resizing, and potential problems with partially
onscreen constraints due to not clearing any
fixed_directions flags (aspect ratio windows get resized in
both directions and thus aren't fixed in one of them)
New feature:
81704 - edge resistance for user move and resize operations;
in particular 3 different kinds of resistance are
implemented:
Pixel-Distance: window movement is resisted when it
aligns with an edge unless the movement is greater than
a threshold number of pixels
Timeout: window movement past an edge is prevented until
a certain amount of time has elapsed during the
operation since the first request to move it past that
edge
Keyboard-Buildup: when moving or resizing with the
keyboard, once a window is aligned with a certain edge
it cannot move past until the correct direction has
been pressed enough times (e.g. 2 or 3 times)
Major changes:
- constraints.c has been rewritten; very few lines of code from
the old version remain. There is a comment near the top of
the function explaining the basics of how the new framework
works. A more detailed explanation can be found in
doc/how-constraints-works.txt
- edge-resistance.[ch] are new files implementing edge-resistance.
- boxes.[ch] are new files containing low-level error-prone
functions used heavily in constraints.c and edge-resistance.c,
among various places throughout the code. testboxes.c
contains a thorough testsuite for the boxes.[ch] functions
compiled into a program, testboxes.
- meta_window_move_resize_internal() *must* be told the gravity
of the associated operation (if it's just a move operation,
the gravity will be ignored, but for resize and move+resize
the correct value is needed)
- the craziness of different values that
meta_window_move_resize_internal() accepts has been documented
in a large comment at the beginning of the function. It may
be possible to clean this up some, but until then things will
remain as they were before--caller beware.
- screen and xinerama usable areas (i.e. places not covered by
e.g. panels) are cached in the workspace now, as are the
screen and xinerama edges. These get updated with the
workarea in src/workspace.c:ensure_work_areas_validated()
2005-10-25 Philip O'Brien <philip.obrien@dal.ca>
* src/prefs.c (meta_preference_to_string): add handling for
