always center top level menus horizontally under the cursor. why is this not normal behavior..?
|
|
placement is not used for this now. it was behaving differently than submenus so i'd like to have some consistency

all related to _NET_WM_USER_TIME and focus stealing prevention
a) add launcher startup notification. this means when you run something from
the openbox menu or a key/mouse binding, that startup notification will go
on in openbox and other applications like your panel or something
b) add the _NET_WM_USER_TIME property for windows
c) use the _NET_WM_USER_TIME data and startup notification to prevent focus
stealing.
d) cookie party !! ! all are invited.
e) oh yeah, and pass around timestamps for a lot more things. like, when you
run an action, send the timestamp for the event that is running the action.
this is important for startup notification. this also affects menus.
f) yes.. cookies..
would it be a good idea to disable focus stealing prevention if a window takes
too long to load? i mean.. maybe after a certain length of time, a user can't be
expected to not do anything in any other windows, but would they still want the
new application to focus then? HMM. open question i guess..

YOUR THEMES ARE NOW OFFICIALLY BROKEN.
Openbox has just moved it's theme format to an XML based one. The details of
this format can be found in data/themerc.xsd (and http://openbox.org/themerc.xsd
ALSO! This is very good and important and stuff! In the tools directory you
will find THEMETOXML ! This tool takes a themerc on stdin, and spits out
the same theme in theme.xml format. So this is all you need to do to update
your themes.
PLEASE NOTE: This themetoxml does _not_ install itself anywhere. It simply
builds and then lives out in its tools/themetoxml directory, and that's it. So
if you want to use it, that is where to find it.
In moving to the new XML format, a number of additions/changes to the theme
engine have been made. Themetoxml takes these into account and will set all
the new things appropriately to make your theme look the same as it always has.
New additions include..
* padding now has an horizontal and vertical component, instead of being one number
* menus can have different borders than windows (color and size)
* menu offset can now be negative. it's a little weird, but someone will want it no doubt
* fonts are no longer controled by the theme at all, however font shadowing is, and on that note..
* font shadows are now any color you want, not just black and white
* you can now set the shadow anywhere you can set the text's color, so you have more control, i.e. you can set shadow on active menu items but not inactive, or disabled, etc.
* every color now has an alpha channel. at the moment they don't do anything, besides the font shadow one, but it leaves room for future explorations. it is REALLY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that you set the alpha to 255 all the time, until such time as it could be useful. otherwise one day your theme may turn awful for people.
* font colors are in the range 0-255, in case you were wondering, and they have to be specified in decimal
* if you'd like to change you font's you can do so in your configuration file. this is how it is going to stay. changing the font in the theme assumes too much about peoples eye sight and locality and stuff. it doesn't belong there, sorry. the system-wide default rc.xml includes the new font settings for your viewing pleasure, and ill drop an example of it below.
* shadows can now be positioned in any direction, they have both an x and a y offset which can be negative and positive. and offset of 0,0 will disable the shadow
This isn't a release or anything. If someone had some good ideas about the xml theme format, I'd like to hear them. But I don't think it will be changing much right now beyond where it is. I don't even know how the new functionality will play out for themers, so we'll see.
Whew.. I guess that's it. I'm not sure if I mentioned every little change or not, but oh well. Mileage may vary.. Please send any feedback.
Here's the font configuration example. Hopefully ObConf will let you set this real soon.
<theme>
...
<font place="ActiveWindow">
<name>arial,sans</name>
<size>7</size>
<weight>bold</weight>
<slant>normal</slant>
</font>
<font place="InactiveWindow">
<name>arial,sans</name>
<size>7</size>
<weight>bold</weight>
<slant>normal</slant>
</font>
<font place="MenuTitle">
<name>arial,sans</name>
<size>8</size>
<weight>bold</weight>
<slant>normal</slant>
</font>
<font place="MenuItem">
<name>arial,sans</name>
<size>8</size>
<weight>bold</weight>
<slant>normal</slant>
</font>
</theme>

and polite?

actually slow down, believe it or not!

1. some random compiling/style cleanups
2. some bigfixes
- mislogic in per-window-settings and focusing new windows
- use client_can_focus rather than checking variables for directional focus
- MAYBE fix all those lock-ups forever. using event_curtime (a new variable) now instead of event_lasttime. event_lasttime is still used however when the event being processed did not have a time associated with it. this may or may not be a problem, and will be seen.
3. um.. i forget
4. oh yeah, 3rd party docks are now treated like the internal ob dock irt focus. that is, clicking on them won't pass them focus. this is going to be ratified as expected behavior in the wm-spec just now. if docks/panels want focus they can request it with _net_active_window, and then they can have all the focus they want! one day alt-tabbing around dock windows might be nice. but not until the ob dock is moved out into a separate application. going to have to add a wmapp selection and stuff for that though... ugly. who uses wmdockapps anymore !? someone must.. *sigh*

can all be in the same place now woot.
allow actions to specify when they can be used (ShowMenu cant in the OB_USER_ACTION_MENU_SELECTION case)
remove KeyboardMove ad KeyboardResize. Instead, just use Move and Resize and determine if it should be a keyboard move/resize in the code

inside the bevel/borders of the menu items
|
|
|
|
|
|
mask icons instead of teh bullet color, and set it based on selected/disabled/normal like the text.
|
|
|

window.focus.font -> window.label.focus.font
window.unfocus.font -> window.label.unfocus.font
window.justify -> window.label.justify
menu.frame.* -> menu.items.*
