Changes in beta release 2.5.15 (14-Jan-2006)
* New features:
- Variables can be nested, like $[desk.name$[desk.n]].
- Obsolete one-letter variables work, but generate warnings now.
- Windows can be placed by any button (now also >3).
- It is now possible to redefine the buttons usable to finish
window movement and manual placement.
- New window condition PlacedByButton.
- MenuStyle pairs can be negated by prefixing '!'.
- New generic tabbing module - FvwmTabs.
- New Style option: EWMHIgnoreWindowType.
- New MenuStyle options: MouseWheel, ScrollOffPage and
TrianglesUseFore.
- To compile from CVS, autoconf-2.53 or above is now required.
This does not affect compiling the released tarballs.
- New option "screen" to Move and ResizeMove commands to allow
specifying the target Xinerama screen.
* Bug Fixes:
- Supported a new fribidi version 0.10.5 in addition to 0.10.4.
- Better look for windows with "BorderStyle TiledPixmap".
- Some EWMH-related 64-bit fixes.
- Fixed segmentation fault when replacing title of title only
menus (Bug #1121).
- Fixes for resizing of shaded windows and resizing/moving
windows with complex functions.
* Re-enabled the use of ApplyOn = "Workspace" for autoproperties.
* Fixed ops distributing uneven pixels in tab calculation that caused
pixels missing from the title.
* Updated menu rendering to properly honour padding and justification.
* Added Last parameter to GotoWorkspace and SendToWorkspace actions
* Fixed bug in parsing of # and // comments not parsing the content
of the line.
* Switch position of row/col placement.
* Updated and applied patch from koniu{@}sheket{.}org to add OffsetX
and OffsetY options to smart placement to pad with x/y pixels.
* Remove max allowed WidthMin value check.
* Fixed dangling reference crash in configuration parser, triggered by
the parse_key_value feature of the CfgParser. Closing #84
* Removed size limiting in resize.
[0.99.24]
* Remove unused def_cmap field from ScreenInfo struct.
* Added -nosoliddrag option (thanks to Erik Auerswald).
* Rewrite grab_keysym() macro as a function.
[0.99.25]
* Regrab keys on receipt of MappingNotify event
* Make spawn() use find_current_screen()
* Fix build errors/warnings when VWM not defined
* Track vdesk separately on each managed screen
* Remove is_sticky tests when only need to check vdesk
* Only snap against clients on the same screen
* Fix configure requests containing sibling information
* Move unused variable workarounds after declarations
* Flesh out some switches with default cases
* Remove redundant call to XShapeSelectInput()
* Move grab_keysym() to main.c, make static
* Make recalculate_sweep() static
* Wrap client_update_current into select_client
* Restructure client_update_current()
* Wrap fetching of mwm_hints property into init_geometry
* Omit some unneeded code when VWM not defined
EWMH atoms mostly, also some keymap defines.
* Code tidy
Dead declarations removed from evilwm.h. Some reordering of other
declarations. Nothing that should affect anything.
* Use XQueryPointer to find pointer root instead of trying to track it
* Macro-ise get_mouse_position()
* Declare some of opt_* as static in main.c
* Don't track bounding_shaped
This is never used outside set_shape and I'm not convinced that
XShapeQueryExtents refers to the old values.
* Fix foolish lookup of screen number where it's already known
* Expose events not needed on frame windows
* Grab buttons when making client instead of every enter event
* Refactored handle_key_event()
PKGLOCALEDIR and which install their locale files directly under
${PREFIX}/${PKGLOCALEDIR} and sort the PLIST file entries. From now
on, pkgsrc/mk/plist/plist-locale.awk will automatically handle
transforming the PLIST to refer to the correct locale directory.
fluxconf is a tiny GTK based configuration tool for the fluxbox window manager.
It allows basic manipulation of the window manager behaviour:
o Slit configuration
o Window placement
o Focus model
o Workspace configuration
o Keys configuration
fluxter is a newer incarnation of bbpager, which is like the name suggests a
pager tool for Blackbox.
The major changes to bbpager are:
o Accesses fluxbox configuration files, e.g. in ~/.fluxbox, rather than in
blackbox directories.
o Default styles come from the fluxbox configuration. Without
customization it will track the look of the current theme.
o The configuration files have been renamed to fluxter.bb (used in a
fluxbox environment) and fluxter.nobb (used in a non-fluxbox
environment). These files should go in fluxbox configuration
directories, such as ~/.fluxbox.
o The X resource entries in the configuration files use fluxter as a label,
rather than bbpager.
o Per-workspace wallpaper changing is supported by the addition of
per-workspace rootCommand configuration entries. For example:
fluxter.workspace0.rootCommand: Esetroot /usr/share/pixmaps/bg1.png
fluxter.workspace1.rootCommand: Esetroot /usr/share/pixmaps/bg2.png
fluxter.workspace2.rootCommand: Esetroot /usr/share/pixmaps/bg3.png
