On Wayland, a window can have subsurfaces. The spec doesn't require the
main surface and its sub-surfaces to have the same scale factor.
Given that Toplevel::bufferScale() makes no sense with Wayland windows,
this change drops it to make code more reasonable and to prevent people
from using Toplevel::bufferScale().
This decouples the management of Shadow from the scene window and allows
multiple items share the same Shadow.
Currently, kwin has a single scene graph, but it makes sense to create a
scene graph per output as they could have different layers, etc. This
would also allow QtQuick share more textures with kwin, which is worth
doing for optimization purposes in the future.
toplevel.h is included in many places. Changing virtualdesktops.h may
trigger rebuild of all kwin.
With this change, only cpp files that use virtualdesktops.h will need to
be recompiled.
The main idea behind _NET_WM_FRAME_OVERLAP is to extend the borders of
the server-side decoration so the application can draw on top of it. It
was inspired by similar feature in Windows.
However, _NET_WM_FRAME_OVERLAP is basically unused. Neither GTK nor Qt
support it and I have never seen any application that uses it.
At the moment, kwin is the only compositing window manager that supports
_NET_WM_FRAME_OVERLAP. Neither mutter nor compiz nor compton and so on
support it.
Since _NET_WM_FRAME_OVERLAP is practically unused, there's no point for
keeping supporting it.
This change shouldn't affect any existing app as _NET_WM_FRAME_OVERLAP
atom is not listed in _NET_SUPPORTED.
Currently, the implementation of the DecoratedClient and the decoration
renderer are strongly coupled. This poses a problem with the item based
design as the ultimate goal is to have scene items construct paint nodes
which are then fed to the renderer. The DecorationItem has to have
control over the decoration texture. Another issue is that the scene
cannot smoothly cross-fade between two window states if the decoration
is removed, e.g. from fullscreen mode to normal and vice versa.
This change moves the decoration renderer to the decoration item. With
the introduction of a generic scene texture atlas, we hope to get rid of
the decoration renderer altogether.
The Toplevel::clientContentPos() function is needed to map the surface
local coordinates to the global coordinates. But its name is highly
confusing as there's already a function with a similar name. This change
introduces a helper with a better name to fix the readability issue.
This makes the implementation of the buffer geometry consistent with the
frame geometry and the client geometry and removes a virtual method call
from a few hot paths.
On X11, the lockscreen greeter is an override-redirect window so the
scale and the glide effect ignore it.
On Wayland, the lockscreen greeter is a regular window so both effects
try to animate it upon the screen being unlocked, which looks bad.
Currently, the Workspace has no any api to constrain one window above
another. This results in having hacks such as keepDeletedTransientAbove()
This change introduces a basic api to constrain a given window above
another. It can be used for ensuring that transient windows are placed
above their parents. It also can be used for stacking the outline window
below the move-resize window.
Internal windows may also have transient parents. Because of that, this
change makes the workspace add internal clients to the stacking order by
default. The good thing about it is that it allows us unify some input
related code for "external" windows and internal windows.
Once in a while, we receive complaints from other fellow KDE developers
about the file organization of kwin. This change addresses some of those
complaints by moving all of source code in a separate directory, src/,
thus making the project structure more traditional. Things such as tests
are kept in their own toplevel directories.
This change may wreak havoc on merge requests that add new files to kwin,
but if a patch modifies an already existing file, git should be smart
enough to figure out that the file has been relocated.
We may potentially split the src/ directory further to make navigating
the source code easier, but hopefully this is good enough already.
