Warp the cursor to the center of the focused view if the cursor is not
in the bounding box of that view already. This helps the user to keep
track of their cursor when they mostly use the keyboard and the cursor
becomes hidden most of the time, also helps trackpad/trackpoint users.
There have been multiple "bug reports" from users that have added more
configuration using riverctl after this line starting rivertile and were
confused why that configuration has no effect.
It's not our job to explain how POSIX shell works, but we can make the
example a bit more foolproof for those who do not yet have experience
with it
This doesn't really seem worth keeping as glibc linux is already covered
by the Arch Linux CI and Void lags behind on package updates enough
compared to the others to be annoying.
This reduces the impact of keyboard groups on the Keyboard.zig
implementation and otherwise improves consistency with patterns used
elsewhere in rivers code.
There are also two small changes to the riverctl interface:
- keyboard-group-add-keyboard is renamed to keyboard-group-add
- keyboard-group-remove is added to support removing keyboards from a
group.
The fact that this call is missing is a bug, as the changes made by
arranging the output layers as well as changes to the focus will not be
fully applied.
It is not guaranteed that the next layout_demand event after a user_command
event has the same active tags (for example when there are no views visible).
As an example, a user could trigger a user_command while no views are visible,
then switch to a different tag set which has active views. The active tags of
the previous layout_demand may also be different.
Therefore it is impossible to correctly implement a layout generator which has
user commands apply only to the currently active tag set, which is solved by
this patch.
When river or wlroots write to a closed socket it could generate SIGPIPE
causing the whole desktop to seemingly "crash" with no error log of any
kind. So we ignore the SIGPIPE and just let the write fail with EPIPE to
be handled normally.
Currently we don't send an enter event when a new keyboard device is
created which causes issues when switching ttys. On switching away the
keyboard device is destroyed and leave is sent. Currently on switching
back the keyboard device is re-created but no enter event is sent before
we start sending key events, which is a violation of the protocol.
In cases like multiple hi-res monitors connected through a USB dock, the
preferred mode can fail to work. Such an output was then ignored by river,
which made it impossible to even set another mode manually.
Sway has been reported to solve this issue, so let's employ their solution
and fall back to another mode if possible.
This fixes the return type of Foo.fromWlrSurface() functions which can
in fact return null in the edge case that the role matches but the
corresponding object has already been destroyed.
Still TODO are:
- Touch support for drags
- Mapping input devices to outputs (necessary for good multi-monitor
touch support)

Some popup menus are not covered by the `overrideRedirectWantsFocus()`
heuristic (e.g. in IntelliJ IDEA), so before focusing an OR window,
its input model should also be checked to ensure that it is able to
take input focus. This appears to fix the popup menus in IntelliJ IDEA,
which would otherwise disappear immediately due to unwanted focus.
- The lifetimes of the Keyboard and Switch structs are now directly
tied to the corresponding InputDevice, which has become a field of
those structs.
- Seat capabilities are now properly updated on removing a keyboard.
These changes align with input device refactoring in upstream wlroots
which will make updating to easier 0.16.0.
Currently we use "switch_device" because that's what the enum variant
happens to be named in zig-wlroots so that it doesn't conflict with the
switch keyword.
This however wasn't really thought through and "switch" makes more sense
to expose to the user.
This was removed a while back because it was buggy and I didn't know
of anyone using it. Since refactoring it is now trivial to implement
and I know of at least one person using it, so I don't mind reviving it.
