...by removing the keyboard flag, moving keyboard shortcut handling into a separate
method and making the position to tile the window at explicit
This also means KWin doesn't do as many intermediary changes to window geometry on output
hotplugs, which may work around some clients not always reacting to no-op changes.
CCBUG: 479694
There were two problems preventing it from working:
1. The placement tracker didn't handle them correctly; now it sets the custom tile mode
after moving the window to its location
2. The window code used `output()` instead of `moveResizeOutput()`, which means when KWin
just moved the window to a different screen and immediately changes the tile mode
afterwards, it would tile the window on the wrong output
There were two problems:
1. Workspace interacted with the tile mode of windows before inhibiting
the placement tracker, so the wrong window state was stored in the placement
tracker
2. Window::setQuickTileMode is unintuitive and has some undesired side effects,
meant to handle quick tiling with keyboard shortcuts and by dragging the
window with a mouse specifically. This commit just works around that by
un-setting the tile mode first
BUG: 461886
Interactions with KScreen cause settings to be reset to the default when the lid
gets closed, so handling lid closing in KWin needs to wait until KScreen no longer
writes configs
BUG: 471282
Use input device specific apis to change the position of the cursor. The
main reason to do so is to break the assumption that Cursor position is
the same as pointer position, which I would like to rely on later to
merge tablet and pointer cursors.
This change extends the OutputChangesTest so it also covers the cases
where a maximized and a fullscreen window is moved back to its original
output when it's hotplugged.
We use the PMF syntax so the isValid() check is unnecessary as the
compiler will notify about wrong signal at compile time. It makes
writing autotests feel less boilerplaty.
It adds more test cases in OutputChangesTest, particularly swapping
outputs.
Swapping outputs is an interesting case because outputs can temporarily
overlap so workspace()->outputAt() can return wrong output and the
window is going to stick to wrong output.
Currently the Workspace processes output updates as they occur, e.g.
when the drm backend scans connectors, the Workspace will handle
hotplugged outputs one by one or if an output configuration changes the
mode of several outputs, the workspace will process output layout
updates one by one instead of handling it in one pass. The main reason
for the current behavior is simplicity.
However, that can create issues because it's possible that the output
layout will be temporarily in degenerate state and features such as
sticking windows to their outputs will be broken.
In order to fix that, this change makes the Workspace process batched
output updates. There are several challenges - disconnected outputs have
to be alive when the outputsQueried signal is emitted, the workspace
needs to determine what outputs have been added or removed on its own.
Things such as Output, InputDevice and so on are made to be
multi-purpose. In order to make this separation more clear, this change
moves that code in the core directory. Some things still link to the
abstraction level above (kwin), they can be tackled in future refactors.
Ideally code in core/ should depend either on other code in core/ or
system libs.
This change adjusts the window management abstractions in kwin for the
drm backend providing more than just "desktop" outputs.
Besides that, it has other potential benefits - for example, the
Workspace could start managing allocation of the placeholder output by
itself, thus leading to some simplifications in the drm backend. Another
is that it lets us move wayland code from the drm backend.
AbstractOutput is not so Abstract and it's common to avoid the word
"Abstract" in class names as it doesn't contribute any new information.
It also significantly reduces the line width in some places.
The .clang-format file is based on the one in ECM except the following
style options:
- AlwaysBreakBeforeMultilineStrings
- BinPackArguments
- BinPackParameters
- ColumnLimit
- BreakBeforeBraces
- KeepEmptyLinesAtTheStartOfBlocks
The output management test checks the implementation of output
management capabilities in the virtual backend, which is not helpful.
This change replaces it with a more useful test that verifies how
windows are placed after an output change.
