...to reevaluate_hover_state_for_window(). This name is not super great
either, but at least it doesn't sound like the window is necessarily
currently being hovered.
Derivatives of Core::Object should be constructed through
ClassName::construct(), to avoid handling ref-counted objects with
refcount zero. Fixing the visibility means that misuses like this are
more difficult.
This commit is separate from the other Servives changes because it
required additional adaption of the code. Note that the old code did
precisely what these changes try to prevent: Create and handle a
ref-counted object with a refcount of zero.
Add option to reverse primary and secondary buttons in Mouse Settings.
- WindowServer.ini: add default entry
- switch-mouse-buttons.png: new icon for settings entry
- Mouse.gml/MouseWidget.*: new settings dialog
- ClientConnection/WindowManager/Server: window message for settings
- EventLoop.cpp: swap buttons 1 and 2 if settings are on
This effectively makes us send a "mouse move" event to windows when they
become active, even if the mouse didn't actually move. By doing this, we
trigger hover/tooltip/etc logic immediately, instead of doing it on the
next 1px mouse movement.
It's a small detail but my goodness does it feel better this way. :^)
This feature was problematic for several reasons:
- Tracking *all* the user activity seems like a privacy nightmare.
- LibGUI actually only supports one globally tracking widget per window,
even if no window is necessary, or if multiple callbacks are desired.
- Widgets can easily get confused whether an event is actually directed
at it, or is actually just the result of global tracking.
The third item caused an issue where right-clicking CatDog opened two
context menus instead of one.
There are a few places in the system where this could be useful,
such as PixelPaint and the MandelBrot demo. It seems general enough
that it is probably useful to have it as a system-wide cursor rather
than loading it manually each time.
This can be used immediately in PixelPaint (separate commit), but
I am adding this as a system-wide cursor since it may also be useful
for other applications that want to use it.
Now you can specify a CursorTheme key in /etc/WindowServer.ini. The
cursors are loaded from /res/cursor-themes/<name> directory. This
directory contains a Config.ini file with format similar to previous
Cursor section, except it uses relative paths.
This commit adds also Default theme, which uses cursors being
previously in /res/cursors.
The WidgetGallery is updated to match the new cursor path format.
When changing the theme, there were two Core::ConfigFile instances
(one class scoped -- m_config and one function scoped -- wm_config)
fighting over the file, resulting in not saving the new theme name
to the config. :^(
This makes WindowServer remember selected theme from the menu
after reboot!
We only need to re-draw the item being selected and the item being
deselected. We also don't care anymore if applets were added or
removed as we no longer have a global menu bar.
This patch adds the concept of a window being "Pinnable" (always drawn
on top of other windows). This can be toggled through a new checkable
action in the top left corner's window menu.
Because window states and various flags can affect the windows'
rendered areas it's safer to use the last computed occlusion rectangles
to invalidate areas on the screen that may have to be re-rendered due
to e.g. a window size change.
Fixes#6723
Differentiates between normal minimization and hidden windows. A window
which is hidden is still minimized, but can be seen as another stage
of being minimized.
Also, make it return a reference as aside from only three special
situations (creating, destroying, and moving a window between stacks)
a window should always be on a window stack. Any access during those
brief situations would be a bug, so we should VERIFY this.
When using the Super+Tab hotkey then all windows will be displayed,
and we will switch to another virtual desktop if needed.
When using the Alt+Tab hotkey then only the windows on the current
desktop will be displayed.
This also adds the ability to query how many virtual desktops are
set up, and for the Taskbar to be notified when the active virtual
desktop has changed.
This creates a 2-dimensional array of WindowStack instances, one for
each virtual desktop. The main desktop 0,0 is the main desktop, which
is the desktop used for all stationary windows (e.g. taskbar, desktop).
When adding windows to a desktop, stationary windows are always added
to the main desktop.
When composing the desktop, there are usually two WindowStacks
involved. For stationary windows, the main desktop will be traversed,
and for everything else the current virtual desktop will be iterated.
Iteration is interweaved to preserve the correct order. During the
transition animation, two WindowStacks will be iterated at the same
time.
To make Assistant useful we need a way to quickly trigger it. I've
added a new specialized event coming from the window server for when a
user is holding down 'Super' and hits 'Space'.
The Taskbar will be able to listen for this event and spawn a new
instance of the Assistant if it's not already running.
Since being tiled means we restrict rendering a window to the screen it
is on (so that we don't "bleed" into an adjacent screen), we need to
untile it if the window either can't fit into the screen, or it is
detached from the screen edges.
An Overlay is similar to a transparent window, but has less overhead
and does not get rendered within the window stack. Basically, the area
that an Overlay occupies forces transparency rendering for any window
underneath, which allows us to render them flicker-free.
This also adds a new API that allows displaying the screen numbers,
e.g. while the user configures the screen layout in DisplaySettings
Because other things like drag&drop or the window-size label are not
yet converted to use this new mechanism, they will be drawn over the
screen-number currently.
If a window which has an active modal window is focused, the modal
window starts blinking. In this case, the window (and modal) should
still be focused. For this, the order of the checks in
process_mouse_event_for_window has to be changed.
This fixes#8183.
This enables rendering of mixed-scale screen layouts with e.g. high
resolution cursors and window button icons on high-dpi screens while
using lower resolution bitmaps on regular screens.
This sets the stage so that DisplaySettings can configure the screen
layout and set various screen resolutions in one go. It also allows
for an easy "atomic" revert of the previous settings.
This allows WindowServer to use multiple framebuffer devices and
compose the desktop with any arbitrary layout. Currently, it is assumed
that it is configured contiguous and non-overlapping, but this should
eventually be enforced.
To make rendering efficient, each window now also tracks on which
screens it needs to be rendered. This way we don't have to iterate all
the windows for each screen but instead use the same rendering loop and
then only render to the screen (or screens) that the window actually
uses.
Some paths of the mouse event processing code will upgrade the event
from a regular MouseDown to a MouseDoubleClick. That's why we were
passing `MouseEvent&` everywhere.
For the paths that don't need to do this, passing `MouseEvent const&`
reduces the cognitive burden a bit, so let's do that.
Instead of plumbing a Window* through the entire mouse event processing
logic, just do a hit test and say that the window under the cursor is
the hovered window.
It's funny how much easier this is now that we have a way to hit test
the entire window stack with one call.
Move the logic for processing a mouse event that hits a specific window
into its own function.
If the window is blocked by a modal child, we now get that out of the
way first, so we don't have to think about it later.
Even if a window is in fullscreen mode, we still want hit testing to
walk the window stack. Otherwise child windows of the fullscreen
window will not receive mouse events.
The button widgets internally rendered by WindowServer are only used
in titlebars, and require a bit of mouse event handling. Instead of
mixing it with the window-oriented mouse event handling, get the
button event stuff out of the way first.
If a window is currently actively tracking input events (because
sent it a MouseDown and haven't sent it a MouseUp yet), we now simply
send mouse events to that window right away before doing any other
event processing.
This makes it much easier to reason about mouse events.
