|
|
* Added option rebindOnMappingNotify option, on by default, which
|
|
controls if we update binds when the keyboard layout changes at runtime.
|
|
* The resize action now only considers the part of the client that is onscreen
|
|
for purposes of picking an action to perform.
|
|
* Make desktop actions non-interactive (means you can have more actions bound
|

|
|
* obxprop is now not pathologically slow when printing very long arrays.

|
windows as possible. Contributed by Ian Zimmerman.
|
|
* Improved Xinerama behaviour.
|
|
* Correctly interface with latest gnome-session for Gnome/Openbox X sessions.

|
|
|
|
3.4.11:
|
|
* Update Hungarian, Japanese, and Latvian translations.
|
|
* Make xdg-autostart use the OPENBOX environment by default, so you can use
|
|
OnlyShowIn=OPENBOX in an autostart .desktop and it will work as expected.
|
|
* Don't close the menu when you hold control and execute something.
|
|

|
|
different sizes.
|
|

|
|
restore it when leaving fullscreen state.
|
|

|
|
stdout).

|
|
* Add a --root option and a manpage for obxprop.
|
|
* Use a negative value for submenuShowDelay and submenuHideDelay to cause
|
|
an infinite delay. This means you have to click to show a submenu, rather
|
|
than just hover over it.
|
|
* Improved code for submenu show/hide delay. Added the submenuHideDelay
|
|
config file option, under the "menu" section.
|
|
* Fixed bug #4464 (Typo in openbox-gnome-session script).
|
|
* Fixed bug #4436 (Focusing a window used to stop focus cycling).
|
|
* Renamed obprop to obxprop due to collision with Open Babel (See bug #4419).
|

|
|
* Fixed bug #4035 (Prevent focus from moving under the mouse after
|
|

will place across all monitors.
|
|
* Don't hide submenus immediately when moving through the parent menu.
|
|
(Resolves request #3762).
|
|

|
|
to the monitor where the mouse is.
|

|
both bound to Escape.
|
|
* Add a new obprop tool, which can be used to read the _OB_ROLE, _OB_NAME,
|
|
and _OB_CLASS (as well as any other UTF-8 window properties) off of a
|
|
window.
|
|
* Add _OB_ROLE, _OB_NAME, and _OB_CLASS hints on each window that show the
|
|
respective values for use in the rc.xml applications section, to modify
|
|
the window when it appears.
|
|
* Improve Openbox interoperability with gnome-session >= 2.24.
|
|
* Fixed bug #4040 (Remove desktop hints set by gdm in the openbox-session
|
|

|
|
gnome-settings-daemon doesn't first)).
|
|
* Fix a bug in xdg-autostart preventing some .desktop files from working.
|
|
* Show the desktop pager popup on the primary monitor instead of on all
|
|
monitors.
|
|
* Add a new primaryMonitor config option, which is where Openbox popups
|
|
will appear. Defaults to a fixed monitor, but can be made to behave as
|
|
before with the "active" value for it.
|
|
* Correct edge detection for move/grow to edge to properly use monitor edges
|
|
for multi-monitor setups.
|
|
* Change default window placement policy to stay on the active monitor for
|
|
multi-monitor setups.
|

|
|
Google Chrome).

* Make openbox-session to respect the $XDG_CONFIG_HOME environment variable.
|
|
* Fixed bug #4344 where borders were given to windows that should not have
|
|
them.
|
|
* Merge the SessionLogout and Exit actions. They now test if connected to a
|
|
session manager and ask it to exit if so, or simply kill Openbox if not.
|
|
* Further tweaks to the _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW message handling. Use the same
|
|
logic for focus-stealing as is used when mapping a new window.
|
|
* Don't go out of our way any more to prevent focus from moving while the
|
|
keyboard is grabbed.
|
|
* Fix openbox-gnome-session when using gnome-session > 2.22.
|
|
|
|
3.4.8-rc2:
|
|
* Updated translations: Italian, Croatian, Ukrainian.
|
|
* When resizing a window while focus cycling with bar=no, the bar no longer
|
|
reappears.
|
|
* Correctly handle shaped windows using the ShapeInput kind, this is used
|
|
by many composited apps to pass through clicks in their transparent areas.
|
|
* Fix the <monitor> per-app setting.
|
|
* Avoid using anonymous unions.
|
|
* Windows that had their decorations removed by per-app settings were still
|
|
placed as if they still had their decorations.
|
|
* Fix event handling not to ignore events on a window when they have an unmap
|
|
event in the queue, if that unmap event doesn't cause the window to be
|
|
unmanaged.
|
|
* Show the desktop switch on every monitor in xinerama.
|
|
* Fix interpretation of struts in xinerama where the screens have different
|
|
sizes.
|
|
* Add "next" and "prev" as possible <monitor> targets in the moveto and
|
|
resizeto actions.
|
|
* Allow escaping the _ used to mark the shortcut character in menu labels.
|
|
You can now change the (first) _ in a label to __, this will be displayed
|
|
as a single underscore. The rest of the _ in the string will be unaffected,
|
|
so only double the first one.
|
|
* Only replace ~ with the home directory when it is preceded by whitespace or
|
|
is at the start of the string, and when it is followed by a space, slash, or
|
|
the end of the string. This is implemented with GRegex, and so the required
|
|
glib version has been bumped to 2.14.
|
|
* Some other small fixes.
|
|
|
|
3.4.8-rc1:
|
|
* Updated translations: Basque, Catalan, Turkish, Italian, Spanish, Russian.
|
|
* New translations: Danish, Turkish, Lithuanian.
|
|
* Set the _MOTIF_WM_INFO atom so urxvt uses motif hints for borderless mode.
|
|
* Properly escape the xml used in session files.
|
|
* Correct a 64-bit issue related to comparing timestamps.
|
|
* There is a sneaky sentence right at the end of a big paragraph in the
|
|
wm-spec document that says windows mapping with _NET_WM_USER_TIME=0 should
|
|
not be focused initially, honor this request.
|
|
* When moving a window to another desktop with following on, bring the
|
|
window's helper windows (for example gimp image windows with the toolbox
|
|
set to utility window).
|
|
* Change the _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW messages again, if they originate from the
|
|
app and the window is on another desktop, just set the demands_attention
|
|
flag. If the event came from the user (ie pager/panel), then the window
|
|
is still moved to the current desktop.
|
|
|
|
3.4.7.2:
|
|
* The system I used to generate the dist tarball didn't have the
|
|
docbook-to-man command so the manpages were empty.
|
|
|
|
3.4.7.1:
|
|
* Not to be outdone by the cairo team, I introduced a bug in the last release
|
|
which made resizing not give any feedback. This is now fixed.
|
|
|
|
3.4.7:
|
|
* Fully updated Czech, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, German,
|
|
French, Hungarian, Norwegian, Vietnamese, Dutch, Swedish, Finnish,
|
|
Brazilian Portuguese, Japanese and Portuguese translations
|
|
* Partially updated Spanish translation
|
|
* Add an example of the "force" option for the per-app placement options to
|
|
the default rc.xml file
|
|
* Add a new xdg-autostart script. This will eventually end up in the PyXDG
|
|
distribution hopefully, but it is included in Openbox for now. This script
|
|
runs things based on the freedesktop.org autostart specification. You can
|
|
have it run GNOME, KDE, ROX, or XFCE specific things if you want. The
|
|
new default system-wide autostart.sh script runs it automatically
|
|
* Update the default menu.xml to include a lot of common apps
|
|
* Fix white font shadows (negative shadowtint)
|
|
* Update the autostart.sh to find gnome-settings-daemon correctly, as the
|
|
GNOME people have moved it to libexec
|
|
* Fix focus possibly getting stolen when using the Focus action
|
|
* Drastically speed up rendering of Vertical and SplitVertical gradients
|
|
* Speed improvements also for Horizonal and Pyramid gradients
|
|
* Add new theme options, menu.overlap.x and menu.overlap.y options, that let
|
|
you independently control the horizontal and vertical position of submenus
|
|
* Change _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW messages to not change the current desktop, but
|
|
to bring the window to the current desktop instead. This is the industry
|
|
standard policy
|
|
* Use the pretty new openbox.png icon as the default window icon
|
|
* Allow matching per-application rules to windows by their window type
|
|
(normal, dialog, splash, etc). The default rc.xml has more details
|
|
* Add new Openbox-themed prompt windows. Use these prompt windows to ask
|
|
before killing off windows that aren't responding. This also means we
|
|
don't need to ping every window constantly forever
|
|
* Add a new <prompt> option to the Execute action. If this is set to a
|
|
string, a dialog will be shown with that string in it and "yes"/"no"
|
|
buttons. The command to be executed will only be run if the user selects
|
|
"yes" in the dialog
|
|
* Add a new <prompt> option to the Exit action, which is a boolean (not a
|
|
string). When true, Openbox will show a dialog confirming if you want to
|
|
exit. The default is to show the prompt
|
|
* Reduce Openbox's memory footprint and speed up rendering through the use
|
|
of a new icon cache, so that Openbox only needs to keep 1 copy of an icon
|
|
when 100 different windows share it
|
|
* Make Openbox menus have the "menu type" hint for compositors to see and use
|
|
* Fix the MoveResizeTo action for negative coords (opposite edges)
|
|
* Fix key bindings getting lost if multiple bindings at the same level could
|
|
not be translated (Fixes VMWare causing Openbox keybindings to stop
|
|
working)
|
|
* Fix the resize popup box for terminal windows with a base size of 0 (show
|
|
the right size values for urxvt terminals)
|
|
* Fix some off-by-one bugs with the edge growing/shrinking code
|
|
* Add new theme options for menu line separators: menu.separator.color,
|
|
menu.separator.width, menu.separator.padding.width,
|
|
menu.separator.padding.height
|
|
* Add xfce-mcs-manager to the default autostart.sh, and run it automatically
|
|
when gnome-settings-daemon is not present to have GTK apps inherit settings
|
|
from the XFCE configuration tools
|
|
* Make the send-to-desktop menu in the client-menu indicate which is the current
|
|
desktop for omnipresent windows, and don't close it if just toggling
|
|
omni-presence when ctrl-clicking
|
|
* Add a new SessionLogout action that logs out through the session manager,
|
|
when running Openbox within a session manager such as within an
|
|
GNOME/Openbox or KDE/Openbox session. The action includes a <prompt>
|
|
option which is similar to the Exit action's
|
|
* Add a new gdm-control command that lets you control gdm from within an X
|
|
session. The gdm-control lets you change GDM's behaviour for when you end
|
|
the current session. For instance, you can tell GDM to reboot, and
|
|
then immediately log out of the current session, and the computer will be
|
|
rebooted
|
|
* Show an information dialog when an error occurs for Openbox, such as when
|
|
the Execute action fails or when XML syntax errors are present in the
|
|
configuration files
|
|
* When making a window very narrow, don't draw buttons to the right of the title
|
|
on top of the ones on its left.
|
|
|
|
3.4.6.1:
|
|
* Updated Clearlooks theme
|
|
* Add the force="yes/no" option for the per-app settings' <position> tag
|
|
* Raise and focus modal children and their direct parents together, improved
|
|
usability with direct modal transient windows
|
|
* Fix crash when using <raise> for NextWindow and there are no windows
|
|
to move focus to
|
|
* Add the <manageDesktops> option in the rc.xml <menu> section, which toggles
|
|
the "Manage Desktops" section appearing in the combined-client-list-menu
|
|
* Fix for menu headers showing the wrong text
|
|
* Fix for the <focusLast> behavior
|
|
* Treat modal direct children as one window with their parent consistently
|
|
|
|
3.4.6:
|
|
* Added Basque translation
|
|
* Updated French, Vietnamese German, Simplified Chinese, Russian, Portuguese,
|
|
Brasilian Portuguese, Norwegian, and Finnish translations
|
|
* New Clearlooks theme, updated by David Barr
|
|
* Updated the previous Clearlooks theme, and renamed it to Clearlooks-3.4
|
|
* Allow dialog type windows to go fullscreen (Fixes Kpdf)
|
|
* Remove the extraneous top border for undecorated windows while maximized
|
|

|
|
some users)
|
|
* Automatically catch changes to the keyboard map and reconfigure the key
|
|
bindings on the fly
|
|
* Fix focus moving incorrectly sometimes with focus under mouse enabled
|
|
* Make default configuration focus the desktop when you right click
|
|
* Add the <bar> and <raise> options for all window cycling actions, allowing
|
|
you to have your target window temporarily raised above all others, and to
|
|
turn the focus target indicator bar off
|
|
* Improve the LastDesktop action to not remember desktops you skipped across
|
|
* Ignore mouse clicks that are made on override-redirect (unmanaged) windows
|
|
* When opening a menu with a key binding, don't use the key binding to run
|
|
something in the menu
|
|
* Add a <monitor> option for window placement, which gives you the option
|
|
to place new windows on the active monitor, or the monitor where the mouse
|
|
is, instead of on any monitor (for xinerama multihead setups)
|
|
* Add options for placing the window move/resize coordinate popup window in
|
|
a fixed position on screen, rather than relative to the window being
|
|
moved or resized
|
|
* Prevent the dock from auto-hiding completely offscreen if the theme has
|
|
no borders for it
|
|
* New icon
|
|
* Fix race condition when running things that want to grab the keyboard
|
|
(e.g. gnome-panel-control --main-menu)
|
|

|
|
in normal ways (fixes new GNOME session logout dialogs)
|
|
* Fix bug with resizing corners on certain parts of the window frame
|
|
* Ping applications to tell when they are running or have become frozen.
|
|
Show a [Not Responding] message in the title bar of windows which are
|
|
frozen.
|
|
* When closing a window which is [Not Responding], kill the window's process
|
|
if it is running on the same machine as Openbox. Otherwise, just
|
|
disconnect
|
|
the window from the X display. A second attempt to close a [Not
|
|
Responding]
|
|
window will kill it forcefully (kill -9).
|
|
* Fixes for internal timers
|
|
* Add a <wmclass> option for the execute action's startup-notification. This
|
|
lets you tell Openbox that the application will map a window with the
|
|
specified class - for applications that do not support startup-notification
|
|
natively.
|
|
* Fix for empty dock taking up space onscreen after a reconfigure
|
|
* Reduce Openbox's additional memory footprint per-window and per-menu
|
|
* Faster horizontal gradient rendering
|
|
* Don't deiconify windows that aren't allowed to be directly iconified on
|
|
restart (eg toolbars), as they can be iconified by other means
|
|
* Improve support for fullscreen windows in xinerama (TwinView) and
|
|
multiple-screen setups

|
|
client-list-combined-menu
|
|

|
|
* Add --exit to exit the currently running openbox instance
|
|
|
|
3.4.4:
|
|
* Updated Traditional Chinese translation
|
|
* Updated Norwegian translation
|
|
* Fix for MoveToEdge skipping edges sometimes
|
|
* Let you specify the vertical and horizontal padding independently in themes
|
|

|
annoying
|

|
|
Smart placement when there was a dock or something on the side of the
|
|
screen
|
|
* Show a notification when switching desktops
|
|
* Fix for delayed focus-follows-mouse interrupting move/resize or menus

|
|
pixel

|
|
(Alt-Tab) to
|
|
* Don't show the client border for undecorated windows when keepBorder is on,
|
|
just the outer border
|
|
* Some improvements in the smart placement to help it find a place more
|
|
often. This needs more work still.
|
|
* Don't focus windows that appear under the mouse in mouse-focus mode unless
|
|
underMouse is enabled
|
|

|
|
ellisized unnecessarily
|
|
* Advanced support for partial struts. When you maximize a window it will

|
|
xinerama functionality.
|
|
* Fixes for how the dock is placed in certain positions on screen (off by 1
|
|
errors)
|
|
* New default bindings:

* New actions for dynamically adjusting your desktop workspaces:
|
|
- AddDesktopLast, RemoveDesktopLast
|
|
- AddDesktopCurrent, RemoveDestopCurrent
|
|
* New <center> option for smart placement (default is on)
|
|
* Fix MoveToCenter in Xinerama (TwinView) setups
|
|
* Let you lower a window without lowering its children or siblings
|
|

|
|
icon from their parents

* Fix Onyx themes - fade out disabled buttons
|
|
* Don't auto-resize windows to fit on screen if they are UserSpecified
|
|
Size or Position

|
thought, but it caused too much problems
|
|

|
|
- ShowDesktop, UnshowDesktop (Use ToggleShowDesktop)

|
|
the MoveFromEdge* action names.
|
|
* Switch desktops when moving a window and you drag it to the edge of the
|
|
screen (added the <screenEdgeWarpTime> option for this)
|
|
* Add actions to add/remove the last desktop in the client list menus
|
|
* Use startup notification when launching ObConf in the default root menu
|
|
* Remove the desktop switching dialog, as it confuses people and they don't
|
|
know how to turn it off to switch desktops instantly. Some other
|
|
incarnation may return in the future.
|
|
* Add optional <finalactions> option for NextWindow, PreviousWindow,
|
|
DirectionalFocus*, and DirectionalTarget* actions
|
|
* Don't focus new helper windows unless they are alone in their group. This
|
|
fixes gucharmap
|
|
* Fancy keyboard window moving:
|
|
- Shift-arrow will move the window to the next edge
|
|
- Control-arrow will move the window by only 1 pixel
|
|
- Arrow will move the window by a larger number of pixels
|
|
* Fancy keyboard window resizing:
|
|
- The first arrow will choose an edge to resize (then you can grow or
|
|
shrink the window on that edge)
|
|
- Hitting an arrow perpendicular to your selected edge will choose a
|
|
different edge to resize
|
|
- Shift-arrow will grow/shrink the window to the next edge
|
|
- Control arrow will grow/shrink the window by only 1 pixel
|
|
- Arrow will grow/shrink the window by a larger number of pixel
|
|
* Timeout when synchronously resizing a window so you can still resize busy
|
|
or dead application windows
|
|
* Let you specify keyboard shortcuts in your root menus with _. Such as
|
|
label="XTe_rm" would make 'r' the shortcut key.
|
|
* Fixes for placing windows with per-app settings:
|
|
- you can now place windows relative to any edge of the screen instead of
|
|
only the top left. (-0 uses the far edge, +0 uses the near edge. You can
|
|
use --0 and +-0 to specify negative numbers.)
|
|
- fix bug with windows being placed far off-screen occasionally
|
|
- allow you to place windows partially outside of the screen
|
|
- let per-app settings override program-specified positions (but not if it
|
|
is user-specified)
|
|
* Add user-specified margins to the configuration file
|
|
* Fix for transient windows in groups with transient windows of the group
|
|
transients. That wasn't supposed to be legible. i.e. 2 group transients
|
|
and 1 direct transient for one of the group transients.
|
|
* Don't include child/parent windows in tests for being occluded or occluding
|
|
other windows, since you can't raise/lower above/below them. This fixes
|
|
the raiselower action for windows which have children.
|
|
* Reduce the size of the middle gradient in splitvertical gradients. This
|
|
makes the split harder than it was in 3.4.2
|
|
* Don't include debian/ dir in releases
|
|
* Add resize bindings for the edges to the default hardcoded bindings
|
|
* Fix focus cycle indicator positioning for some windows (i.e. OpenOffice)
|
|
* Add the MoveResizeTo action. This is very xinerama aware! It also lets
|
|
you move a window to any edge of any screen.
|
|
* Make actions that look for edges include the dock's edges (e.g. MoveToEdge)
|
|
* New preferred option for the Execute action is <command> instead of
|
|
<execute> but the old one will still work.
|
|
* Fix for moving windows partially offsceen causing them to jump far away
|
|
* Fix for windows which are not on any monitor, to keep them on screen
|
|
partically too
|
|
* Require libstartupnotification 0.8 in configure (we use stuff that was not
|
|
around in some earlier versions)
|
|
* Grab the server when mapping windows to avoid race conditions in other
|
|
programs (getting MapNotify before you are visible)
|
|
* Handle case gracefully when ConfigureRequent for restacking specifies
|
|
a siblig which we aren't managing
|
|
* Use KeyRelease to run things from Openbox menus, so that the release
|
|
does not go to the focused window (causing the new window to not get
|
|
focus)
|
|
* Add new actions for controlling window decorations:
|
|
- Decorate, Undecorate
|
|
* Fix so that the values for per-app settings are not case sensitive
|
|
* Fix crash with very small windows

|
* Fix for focusLast with omnipresent windows
|
|
* Cache pipe menus while the menus are open
|
|
* Allow non-interactive directional focus key bindings
|
|
* Change how nested interactive key bindings work (it stays in the key chain,
|
|
like chroot, until you end the interactive action)
|
|
* Fix for gtk apps trying to get focus - mostly nullify focus stealing
|
|
prevention (Fixes Tilda)
|
|
* Send ConfigureNotify always on ConfigureRequest (Previous emacs fix
|
|
makes this possible now)
|
|
* Fix RelativeResize action for right/bottom edges
|
|
* Remove SCIM from the default autostart.sh - it has caused problems with
|
|
some (buggy) panels, such as pypanel
|
|
* Fix the titlebar changing to non-focused when iconifying a window with
|
|
animation
|
|
* Use the new osd theme hints for the dock, rather than the titlebar hints
|
|
* Fix rare crash when menu is hidden while browsing it
|
|
* End move/resize more cleanly when focus moves during a move/resize
|
|
* Don't focus new windows when browsing a menu or moving/resizing a window,
|
|
just flash the window instead, so that the menu/move/resize doesn't have to
|
|
cancel.
|
|
|
|
3.4.1:
|
|
* Add Vietnamese translation
|
|
* Add Japanese translation
|
|
* Keep new transient windows from not getting focus when any related window

|
|
eachother

|
so they don't stop you

|
(Fixes Pidgin and Gimp dialogs appearing on the wrong desktop)
|

|
|
ambiguous
|
|

* Make control key work for menu accelerators like it does for mouse
|
|
clicking and hitting enter
|
|

|
|
* Save the desktop layout and names in the session, and restore them on next
|
|
log in.
|
|
* The <desktop> section from the configuration file is only used for
|
|
defaults, and so is only applied at the start of a new log-in. (Use ObConf
|
|
1.6.2 to change the config file for these options, and have them set

|
* Fix updating and crashing in the old split client list menu

* Don't reload the session and reapply it when restarting
|
|
* Fix for losing the original size of a window that mapped with maximized
|
|
state (or on restart)
|
|
* Let you move splash type windows
|
|
* Fix for window placement using wrong dimensions
|
|
* Stop xemacs ConfigureNotify storm
|
|
* Fix bug stopping panels from moving themselves off-screen to hide
|
|
themselves
|
|
* Fix for GNOME/Openbox and openbox-gnome-session to use a new session name,
|
|
because GNOME won't let you replace the window manager in the saved session
|
|
* Don't restore session state when multiple windows have the same
|
|
identifiers, because we can't tell them apart then (Firefox/Thunderbird)
|
|
* Small fixes to build system to make it more reliable
|
|
* Fix for what manpage files are distributed in the source code, so they
|
|
will not be pre-built with the wrong info
|
|
* Fix pkg-config files for compiling things against Openbox libraries
|
|
|
|
3.3.990:
|
|
* Wildcard matching for per-application (per-window) settings. Let you match
|
|
multiple rules for a window. (Props to Mark Pustjens for code to do this.)
|
|
* Added startup notification support to the menus and key/mouse bindings
|
|
with <startupnotify>. It's an option for execute actions.
|
|
* New combined client menu, accessed with
|
|
<action name="ShowMenu"><menu>client-list-combined-menu</menu></action>
|
|
* No menu titles - instead added separators with labels to be used as menu
|
|
headers anywhere in menus
|
|
* Improved client menu - placement, the options in it, and added an icon for
|
|
"All Desktops"
|
|
* Keyboard shortcuts in menus, by highlighted letter or by the first letter
|
|
* Menus dont jump around, are always placed on screen
|
|
* Menus larger than can fit on the screen are broken into a submenu at the
|
|
bottom titled "More..."
|

|
|
* Using ()'s instead of a line separator to signify iconified windows in the
|
|
client list menus
|
|
* New Root context for mouse bindings
|
|
* New "alt-tab" focus switching dialog
|
|
* openbox-session command and log-in option which provides the autostart
|
|
capability.
|
|
* SCIM support in the default Openbox session launched by the
|
|
openbox-session command
|
|
* Many code paths made significantly faster
|
|
* Sections of code rewritten to be more reliable, such as session
|
|
save/restore and input focus handling
|
|
* Handle the X server's clock going backwards, without locking up. Sometimes
|
|
the server can still lock up though, it is not recommended to do this!
|
|
* Better handling of window types such as docks, utility windows, tool bar
|
|
windows. Clicking to focus these windows is done more intelligently. Dock
|
|
windows no longer get focus when you click them, so that you don't have
|
|
focus flickering when you use a dock window with a taskbar.
|
|
* Better language support through Pango, which is now mandatory, and the
|
|
code for Pango has been greatly improved and optimized.
|
|
* Support for windows that use true 32-bit transparency
|
|
* Resize grips (with mouse binding contexts) for the top, left, and right of
|
|
the window frame
|
|
* Smarter about keeping windows on the screen without invading user's
|
|
capabilities
|
|
* Add MoveFromEdge* actions corresponding to MoveToEdge* but aligns far
|
|
edges instead of near edges, so if you have two overlapping windows you
|
|
can easily put them side by side.
|
|
* Better choice of mouse cursors for startup notification
|
|
* Focus stealing prevention
|
|
* Improve window placement across multiple Xinerama monitors
|
|
* Support 8-bit truecolor visuals (such as in vncserver)
|
|
* Better, more friendly support for omnipresent windows
|
|
* Full support for EWMH 1.4-draft2
|
|
* Iconify/restore animation !
|
|
* Improved support for running openbox with multiple screens (non-xinerama)
|
|
- won't steal focus from other screens, and let you focus a screen by
|
|
clicking on the desktop (root window).
|
|
* Support for more cursors through XCursor, means that startup notification
|
|
can use a pointer+watch cursor if you are using an XCursor theme
|
|
* Fully maximize terminal windows (and any resized-by-increment window)
|
|
* Show the hostname of clients running on remote computers in the titlebar
|
|
* Add <panels> and <desktop> options to NextWindow, PreviousWindow,
|
|
DirectionalFocusNorth etc..
|
|
* Synchronize resizing with the application when possible
|
|
* Smarter subdivision of windows into 9 sections for resizing
|
|
* Set default icon on windows so applications can agree on an icon
|
|
* Better support for programs that are on more than one desktop
|
|
(multiple firefox windows for example) - move to the desktop when you're
|
|
using the application and it opens a window on another desktop.
|
|
* Chrooted key chains, and key quoting through chroots
|
|
* New BreakChroot action to break out of the current chroot
|
|
* New keychains popup, to show where you are in a keychain
|
|
* Improved show-desktop mode. When you open a new window, the old windows
|
|
are not all restored
|
|
* Add <allDesktops> option to NextWindow and PreviousWindow. The desktop
|
|
name will be shown in the focus cycling popup
|
|
* Dynamically size the window and desktop dialogs. Desktop layouts that
|
|
aren't horizontal look better in the desktop cycling dialog.
|
|
* Support for legacy fullscreen applications (that don't use EWMH) such as
|
|
VLC
|
|
* Session support for old clients that do not use the session management
|
|
protocol
|
|
* Desktop setup is only changed on startup, so as to not overwrite settings
|
|
from other apps like pagers
|
|
* Take advantage of ksmserver (KDE Session Manager) features
|
|
* KDE/Openbox and GNOME/Openbox options for display manager GDM/KDM. Use
|
|
openbox-gnome-session and openbox-kde-session to run a GNOME or KDE
|
|
session with Openbox as the window manager.
|
|
* Titlebar buttons autohide when hiding won't move other buttons (removed
|
|
the hideDisabled option from config file)
|
|
* Support user time window hint, which is good for laptops power usage
|
|
* When legacy windows raise themselves, interpreate as wanting to be
|
|
activated. Makes Firefox more pleasant.
|
|
* Don't show handles on windows that cant resize for more extreme visual
|
|
minimalism
|
|
* Let you move maximized windows between Xinerama monitors
|
|
* Improve application awareness of focus, e.g. Kopete and Firefox, so they
|
|
know when they are or aren't focused, and which window in their
|
|
application is focused
|
|
* Improvements in the distributed themes
|
|
* Add new Clearlooks and Clearlooks-Olive themes by John McKnight
|
|
* Fonts are no longer loaded from theme. They are loaded from the rc.xml
|
|
config file. Font shadow settings are still loaded from the theme though.
|
|
5 fonts to be set: ActiveWindow InactiveWindow, MenuHeader, MenuItem and
|
|
OnScreenDisplay
|
|
* Distributed theme names have been renamed with Capitalization
|
|
* menu.items.activedisabled.text.color
|
|
* menu.border.color (note that globbing might set these properties when
|
|
you didnt mean to)
|
|
* window.active.border.color (note that globbing might set these
|
|
properties when you didnt mean to)
|
|
* window.inactive.border.color (note that globbing might set these
|
|
properties when you didnt mean to)
|
|
* menu.border.width
|
|
* Guarantee that titlebar buttons are even sized, so even sized icons
|
|
(button masks) will be centered
|
|
* Default titlebar button icons (as xbms) installed to /usr/share/doc/openbox
|
|
* New mouse binding contexts Left, Right, TLCorner, TRCorner and Top. These
|
|
need bindings in config file to be useful. Also new context Bottom which
|
|
is synonym for Handle.
|
|
* W is no longer hard coded to Mod4. It is now a shortcut for Super, which
|
|
is usually bound to Mod4. xmodmap will show your mapping.
|
|
* The per-app setting <head> has been renamed to <monitor>
|
|
* Can use "default" for anything in per-app settings
|
|
* Removed <edges_hit_layers_below> option from config file
|
|
* --reconfigure command line option
|
|
* --restart command line option

|
|
* Fixed onscreen-keeping code which broke a bit in -rc2.
|
|
* Fix incorrect handling of window properties on 64 bit arches.
|
|
* Fix pixelsize being the same as size for pango, now it is correct.
|
|
* Fix drawing of icons taller than wide, eg gimp.
|
|
* Add a 'mirrorhorizontal' gradient, like horizontal but mirrored in the
|
|
center and 'splitvertical' which is like vertical but nonlinear in a fancy
|
|
way.
|
|
* Translations for de, hr and zh_TW added.
|
|
* Add initial per-app settings support.
|
|
* Fix some outstanding issues with 64-bit support.
|
|
* Add an optional delay for displaying submenus so you can move the mouse
|
|
over some entries without flashing each submenu.
|
|
* Plug some minor memleaks and fix minor bugs.
|
|
* Changed algorithm for downscaling window icons.
|
|
* New themes!
|
|
* Disable support for libstartup-notification by default, it doesn't seem
|
|
to work well.
|
|
* Allow disabling of duplicate window numbering by option titleNumber in
|
|
theme section.
|
|
* Add moverelative and resizerelative actions.
|
|
* Option middle for menus that make submenus be centered instead of aligned
|
|
by the top edge to the parent entry.
|
|
* Fix transient (ie dialog) windows being placed offscreen if the parent
|
|
is close to the edge of the screen.
|
|
|
|
3.3-rc2:
|
|
* Fixed some typos and errors in rc.xsd
|
|
* Add the noStrut option to the dock (to allow maximizing windows over it),
|
|
useful when it is not in the above layer.
|
|
* Fix transparent terminals not updating when using ToggleDecor.
|
|
* Yet more poking at the onscreen-keeping code, should now do the right
|
|
thing always.
|
|
* Add an option to hide disabled buttons instead of showing them as disabled.
|
|
* Hopefully fixed all the remaining pango issues. The new 1.10 release also
|
|
fixes shadows again.
|
|
* I think the lib linking in Makefile.am is right now, please tell me if it
|
|
isn't.
|
|
* Added a finnish translation and some minor updates to others.
|
|
* Fixed configure.ac so --enable-pango doesn't disable pango support or the
|
|
other way around, make enabled be default to get some extra testing.
|
|
|
|
3.3-rc1:
|
|
* Poked around a bit in the code that keeps windows onscreen, if you
|
|
are using xinerama, please let me know if things are better/worse/same.
|
|
* Add support for pango, disabled by default due to a bug in pango 1.8 that
|
|
breaks shadows, it works fine with 1.6.x though. Poke the pango developers
|
|
here http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=169622 if you want this
|
|
to be fixed.
|
|
* Made edge resist and Send/MoveToEdge not hit windows at layers below
|
|
the current one, add option to disable this behaviour.
|
|
* Fixed directional focus not getting trapped in omnipresent windows
|
|
* Fixed focus actions when bound to the mouse, normal focus cycle is always
|
|
linear and directional focus is totally disabled, it makes no sense
|
|
anyway, just move the mouse.
|
|
* Added an option for the raise/lower/raiselower/unshaderaise/shadelower
|
|
options called group that lets you bind stuff to raise/lower the whole
|
|
window group. <action name="raise"><group>yes</group></action>
|
|
* Add various new actions. I haven't updated the web docs yet, but I think
|
|
I managed to get all of them listed in rc.xsd.
|
|
* Bugs 1783, 1812, 1863, 1905, 2005, 1957 fixed.
|
|
* Some translations added. (ca, no, pl, ru, fr)
|
|
|
|
3.2:
|
|
* Added spanish and swedish translations
|
|
* Changed "Unnamed Desktop" to "Desktop n" where n is the actual
|
|
number of the desktop
|
|
* Hopefully no more of the hanging X totally bug
|
|
* the fullscreen property now overrides aspect hints, all programs i've
|
|
tried that use it (mplayer and tvtime) handle the aspect internally
|
|
anyway, this just makes sure you have black borders all the way to the
|
|
edge. If this breaks anything for you, let me know.
|
|
* Added M as an alias for Mod3 in the same manner that W is an alias for Mod4
|
|
* Added probably too many options and actions
|
|
* ToggleDockAutohide to toggle the autohide option at runtime,
|
|
doesn't save it to the config
|
|
* keepBorder option to set if you want the 1-pixel border when you
|
|
toggleDecorations
|
|
* added popupShow and popupPosition to control where and when the
|
|
move/resize-popup is shown, these go in the resize section of the config
|
|
popupPosition can be Top or Center, popupShow can be Always, Never or
|
|
Nonpixel (this is the default).
|
|
* Added the xorStyle option to change the behaviour of menus along the bottom
|
|
edge, note that the default is true
|
|
* warpPointer option in the menu section to control if the mouse cursor is
|
|
to be warped by openbox when the menu moves to keep on screen to keep the
|
|
cursor in the same place relative to the menu. (I think i got that right)
|
|
* Added back the focusLast option (this controls what happens when you
|
|
change desktops and have followMouse on)
|
|
* Added an option to set which desktop to start on when you start openbox,
|
|
firstdesk, for example you might like to set it to 5 if you have a 3x3
|
|
grid to start in the middle.
|
|
* I think that was everything, have fun
|
|
|
|
