The goal here is to make MetaWindow represent a toplevel, managed window,
regardless of if it's X11 or Wayland, and build an abstraction layer up.
Right now, most of the X11 code is in core/ and the wayland code in wayland/,
but in the future, I want to move a lot of the X11 code to a new toplevel, x11/.
We no longer unmap the toplevel windows during normal operation. The
toplevel state is tied to the window's lifetime.
Call meta_compositor_add_window / meta_compositor_remove_window instead...
Traditionally, WMs unmap windows when minimizing them, and map them
when restoring them or wanting to show them for other reasons, like
upon creation.
However, as metacity morphed into mutter, we optionally chose to keep
windows mapped for the lifetime of the window under the user option
"live-window-previews", which makes the code keep windows mapped so it
can show window preview for minimized windows in other places, like
Alt-Tab and Expose.
I removed this preference two years ago mechanically, by removing all
the if statements, but never went through and cleaned up the code so
that windows are simply mapped for the lifetime of the window -- the
"architecture" of the old code that maps and unmaps on show/hide was
still there.
Remove this now.
The one case we still need to be careful of is shaded windows, in which
we do still unmap the client window. Theoretically, we might want to
show previews of shaded windows in the overview and Alt-Tab, so we remove
the complex unmap tracking for this later.
When GDK sends an unmaximize _NET_WM_STATE ClientMessage, it tells us to remove
the _NET_WM_STATE_MAXIMIZED_HORZ and _NET_WM_STATE_MAXIMIZED_VERT states. Before
this time, it would independently call:
meta_window_unmaximize (window, META_MAXIMIZE_HORIZONTAL);
meta_window_unmaximize (window, META_MAXIMIZE_VERTICAL);
Which, besides being foolishly inefficient, would also mess up our saved_rect
tracking, causing the window to only look like it was unmaximized vertically.
Make this code more intelligent, so it causes us to unmaximize in one call.

This grab was added in commit caf43a123fhttps://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=381127
to minimize window flickering when switching workspaces.
While this grab is held, some signals are emitted to the shell,
which can lead to deadlocks (reproduced under Mali binary OpenGLESv2
drivers).
Now that we are a compositing window manager, we do not have to
worry about flickers, this grab should no longer be necessary.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=721709
Remove some obvious server grabs from the window creation codepath,
also ones that are taken at startup.
During startup, there is no need to grab: we install the event handlers
before querying for the already-existing windows, so there is no danger
that we will 'lose' some window. We might try to create a window twice
(if it comes back in the original query and then we get an event for it)
but the code is already protected against such conditions.
When windows are created later, we also do not need grabs, we just need
appropriate error checking as the window may be destroyed at any time
(or it may have already been destroyed).
The stack tracker is unaffected here - as it listens to CreateNotify and
DestroyNotify events and responds directly, the internal stack
representation will always be consistent even if the window goes away while
we are processing MapRequest or similar.
Now that there are no grabs we don't have to worry about explicitly calling
display_notify_window after grabs have been dropped. Fold that into
meta_window_new_shared().
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=721345
The return code of XGetWindowAttributes() indicates whether an error
was encountered or not. There is no need to specifically check the error
trap.
The trap around XAddToSaveSet() was superfluous. We have a global error
trap to ignore any errors here, and there is no need to XSync() as GDK
will later ignore the error asynchronously if one is raised.
Also move common error exit path to an error label.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=721345
The compositor code used to handle X windows that didn't have a
corresponding MetaWindow (see commit d538690b), which is why the
attribute query is separated.
As that doesn't happen any more, we can clean up. No functional changes.

When we move focus elsewhere when unmanaging a window, we *need* to move
the focus, so if the target is globally active, move the focus to the
no-focus-window in anticipation that the focus will normally get moved
to the right window when the target window responds to WM_TAKE_FOCUS.
If the window doesn't respond to WM_TAKE_FOCUS, then focus will be left
on the no-focus-window, but there's no way to distinguish whether the
app will respond or not.

Initial placement during meta_window_constrain() can result in changes
to the borders, so we need to recompute our border sizes after
constraining. This fixes incorrect window borders on
initially maximized windows.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=720417
Do this by duplicating the current code and porting it to use
X again. A better approach would involve our own event structures,
and I really don't want to do that right now. We can clean this up
later.
When unmaximizing, we changed bits of window state, then called out
to code that used the frame extents *before* we cleared old cached
extents. Clear the cache up-front as soon as we change the window
state.

We require a MetaWindow to properly implement some of the requests
for xdg_surface, so add a way to have an unmapped MetaWindow that
we can store properties on, that we later map when the client
attaches a buffer...
For clarity, rename meta_window_get_outer_rect() to match terminology
we use elsewhere. The old function is left as a deprecated
compatibility wrapper.
Instead of passing around MetaFrameBorders, compute it when we need it.
This also allows us to know that we are using MetaFrameBorders only for windows
with frames (where it is meaningful) and not for frameless windows, which
can have custom borders which we need to interpret differently.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707194
Cache the computed border size so we can fetch the border size at
any time without worrying that we'll be spending too much time in
the theme code (in some cases we might allocate a PangoFontDescription
or do other significant work.)
The main effort here is clearing the cache when various bits of window
state change that could potentially affect the computed borders.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707194
There are extensive places in the code where we convert between the client
rectangle and the frame rectangle. Instead of manually doing it use
new helper functions on MetaWindow and the existing meta_window_get_outer_rect().
This fixes a number of bugs where the computation was being done incorrectly,
most of these bugs are with the recently added custom frame extents, but
some relate to invisible borders or even simply to confusion between the
window and frame rectangle.
Switch the placement code to place the frame rectangle rather
than the client window - this simplifies things considerably.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707194
There is now a meta_display_handle_event alongside the
meta_display_handle_xevent function which handles events in terms of
Clutter events instead of X events. A Clutter event filter is
registered so that all Clutter events will pass through this function.
The pointer event handling code from the X event version has been moved
into this new function and has been modified to use the details from
the Clutter event instead of the X event. This is a step towards
moving all of the event handling code over to use Clutter events.

To properly resize clients, we need to send them configure events
with the size we computed from the constraint system, and
then check if the new size they ask is compatible with
our expectation.

merely makes the API calls work for wayland clients.

The previous code was leaving focus fields dirty in MetaWaylandPointer
and MetaWaylandKeyboard at time (which could crash the X server
because of invalid object IDs)
The new code is more tighly integrated in the normal X11 code
for handling keyboard focus (meaning that the core idea of input
focus is also correct now), so that meta_window_unmanage() can
do the right thing. As a side benefit, clicking on wayland clients
now unfocus X11 clients.
For the mouse focus, we need to clear the surface pointer when
the metawindowactor is destroyed (even if the actual actor is
kept alive for effects), so that a repick finds a different pointer
focus.

This breaks down the assumptions in stack-tracker.c and stack.c that
Mutter is only stacking X windows.
The stack tracker now tracks windows using a MetaStackWindow structure
which is a union with a type member so that X windows can be
distinguished from Wayland windows.
Some notable changes are:
Queued stack tracker operations that affect Wayland windows will not be
associated with an X serial number.
If an operation only affects a Wayland window and there are no queued
stack tracker operations ("unvalidated predictions") then the operation
is applied immediately since there is no server involved with changing
the stacking for Wayland windows.
The stack tracker can no longer respond to X events by turning them into
stack operations and discarding the predicted operations made prior to
that event because operations based on X events don't know anything
about the stacking of Wayland windows.
Instead of discarding old predictions the new approach is to trust the
predictions but whenever we receive an event from the server that
affects stacking we cross-reference with the predicted stack and check
for consistency. So e.g. if we have an event that says ADD window A then
we apply the predictions (up to the serial for that event) and verify
the predicted state includes a window A. Similarly if an event says
RAISE_ABOVE(B, C) we can apply the predictions (up to the serial for
that event) and verify that window B is above C.
If we ever receive spurious stacking events (with a serial older than we
would expect) or find an inconsistency (some things aren't possible to
predict from the compositor) then we hit a re-synchronization code-path
that will query the X server for the full stacking order and then use
that stack to walk through our combined stack and force the X windows to
match the just queried stack but avoiding disrupting the relative
stacking of Wayland windows. This will be relatively expensive but
shouldn't be hit for compositor initiated restacking operations where
our predictions should be accurate.
The code in core/stack.c that deals with synchronizing the window stack
with the X server had to be updated quite heavily. In general the patch
avoids changing the fundamental approach being used but most of the code
did need some amount of re-factoring to consider what re-stacking
operations actually involve X or not and when we need to restack X
windows we sometimes need to search for a suitable X sibling to restack
relative too since the closest siblings may be Wayland windows.
This adds support for running mutter as a hybrid X and Wayland
compositor. It runs a headless XWayland server for X applications
that presents wayland surfaces back to mutter which mutter can then
composite.
This aims to not break Mutter's existing support for the traditional X
compositing model which means a single build of Mutter can be
distributed supporting the traditional model and the new Wayland based
compositing model.
TODO: although building with --disable-wayland has at least been tested,
I still haven't actually verified that running as a traditional
compositor isn't broken currently.

We now track whether a window has an input shape specified via the X
Shape extension. Intersecting that with the bounding shape (as required
by the X Shape extension) we use the resulting rectangles to paint
window silhouettes when picking. As well as improving the correctness of
picking this should also be much more efficient because typically when
only picking solid rectangles then the need to actually render and issue
a read_pixels request can be optimized away and instead the picking is
done on the cpu.
Originally attached dialogs did not have a titlebar, which the code
still assumes though it hasn't been true for a while; nowadays, the
actual look of attached dialogs is controlled by the theme.
As GTK+ recently gained the ability to set custom titlebars, we need
to support attached dialogs with either full borders (WM decorations)
or border-only (GTK+ titlebar).
Just remove the left-over assumption to make it work as expected.

Avoid a round trip to the xserver we already have the current position
anyway. Querying from the server on every move can cause the compositor to
stall during movement.
If an app pops up an OR window and sets input focus to it, like
Steam does, we'll think the focus window is null, causing us to
think the app is not focused.
OR windows should not be special if they get input focus, where
the input focus would be set to NULL. Instead, the window should
be marked as focused.

Mutter previously defined display->focus_window as the window that the
server says is focused, but kept display->expected_focus_window to
indicate the window that we have requested to be focused. But it turns
out that "expected_focus_window" was almost always what we wanted.
Make MetaDisplay do a better job of tracking focus-related requests
and events, and change display->focus_window to be our best guess of
the "currently" focused window (ie, the window that will be focused at
the time when the server processes the next request we send it).

Clients using _NET_WM_MOVERESIZE to start a drag operation may encounter
a race condition if the user presses and releases a mouse button very
fast, getting "stuck" in a grab state. While this is easily fixed with
the user pressing the button or hitting Escape as the EWMH spec suggests,
its's still a bit of annoyance for users.
After starting a grab operation, check that the button is actually pressed
by the client, and if not, cancel the grab operation. This prevents the
stuck grab in a race-free way, although it requires an extra round-trip
to the server.
With client-side decorations becoming more popular, the use of
_NET_WM_MOVERESIZE is on the rise, thus this bug is seen more frequently

Trying to track the fullscreen status outside of Mutter, as GNOME Shell

::in-fullscreen-changed signal. This allows an application to
track when there are fullscreen windows on a monitor.
* Do the computation of fullscreen status in a "later" function that

* To get ordering of different phases right, add more values
to MetaLaterType.

earlier in this cycle - if a window is set to be fullscreen, but
not actually fullscreen, minimize.

We used to restore side-by-side tiling when unmaximizing, so we
kept the tile-mode during maximization. Since commit 10d53fc7d

Previously, we were handling failure to respond to _NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST
in the code path for throttling motion events. But this meant that
if a window didn't respond to _NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST and there were no
motion events - for a keyboard resize, or after the end of the grab
operation - it would end up in a stuck state.
Use a separate per-window timeout to reliably catch the failure to respond
to _NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST.

During resizing we froze window updates when configuring the
window, and unfroze the window updates when processing the
next resize. This wasn't absolutely reliable, because we might
not have a next resize. Instead tie window freezing more
directly to the current sync request value - a window is
frozen until it catches up with the last value we sent it
in _NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST.
Testing with unresponsive clients showed that there was a bug
where window->disable_sync once set, would not actually disable
sync, but it *would* disable noticing that the client was
unresponsive for the next resize. Fix that by checking for
->disable_sync before sending _NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST.

meta_window_is_remote compares a cached copy of the system hostname
with the hostname of the client window
(as presented by the WM_CLIENT_MACHINE property).
Of course, the system hostname can change at any time, so caching
it is wrong. Also, the WM_CLIENT_MACHINE property won't necessarily
change when the system hostname changes, so comparing it with the
new system hostname is wrong, too.
This commit makes the code call gethostname() at the time
WM_CLIENT_MACHINE is set, check whether it's remote then, and cache
that value, rather than comparing potentially out of sync hostnames
later.

We do, in fact, need freezing to affect window geometry, so that
move-resize operations (such as an interactive resize from the
left, or a resize of a popup centered by the application) occur
atomically.
So to make map effects work properly, only exclude the initial
placement of a window from freezing. (In the future, we may want
to consider whether pure moves of a window being done in response
to a user drag should also be excluded from freezing.)
Rename meta_window_sync_actor_position() to
meta_window_sync_actor_geometry() for clarity.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=693922
The WM spec requires _NET_WM_FRAME_DRAWN to *always* be sent when
there is an appropriate update to the sync counter value. We were
potentially missing _NET_WM_FRAME_DRAWN when an application did a

a window is frozen.

During resizing, An odd counter value (indicating the beginning of a frame)
shouldn't cause us to redraw and start a new frame, only an even counter

updated.

In different places we checked the grab op differently when determing
whether we are using _NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST. This was somewhat covered

use meta_grab_op_is_resizing() everywhere.

When a client is drawing as hard as possible (without sleeping
between frames) we need to draw as soon possible, since sleeping
will decrease the effective frame rate shown to the user, and
can also result in the system never kicking out of power-saving
mode because it doesn't look fully utilized.
Use the amount the client increments the counter value by when
ending the frame to distinguish these cases:
- Increment by 1: a no-delay frame
- Increment by more than 1: a non-urgent frame, handle normally
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685463
Resizing the frame triggers creation of a new backing pixmap for the
window, so we should do that first before we resize the client window
and mess up the contents of the old backing pixmap.

_NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST, send a client message with completion

If an application provides two values in _NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST_COUNTER,
use that as a signal that the applications wants an extended behavior
where it can update the counter as well as the window manager. If the
application updates the counter to an odd value, updates of the
window are frozen until the counter is updated again to an even value.

Instead of creating a new alarm each time we resize a window
interactively, create an alarm the first time we resize a window
and keep it around permanently until we unmanage the window.
Doing it this way will be useful when we allow the application to
spontaneously generate sync request updates to indicate
frames it is drawing.

Replace the unused meta_compositor_set_updates() with

which will use focus_default_window() with the not_this_one parameter
to move focus away. We used to get away with this, as the not_this_one
parameter was ignored until commit e257580b94, now with bug 675982
fixed, we need to explicitly handle the show-desktop case.

If someone plugs in a new monitor, while all their regular windows
should move in absolute X coordinates to ensure they stay on the
same monitor, the desktop window should stay put.

When we consider tiling a special case of maximization, it makes
more sense to always unmaximize to the normal state rather than
restoring a previous tile state.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=677565
Currently we decide whether a modal dialog should be attached or not
when mapping it, i.e. we don't pick up preference changes that happen
while the dialog is up. It's not really a big deal given that modal
dialogs are usually transitory, but it's easy enough to add a bit of
extra polish ...
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=679904
Side-by-side tiling is conceptually very close to maximization
("half-maximized"), so it makes sense to also hide the titlebar
in this state if requested by the application.

Similar to meta_screen_get_primary_monitor, this returns a monitor index.

It is impossible to switch to other windows when keep-on-top is set
for maximized windows; given that keep-on-top is only ever useful
to keep a window visible while focusing a different window, the
current behavior is pointless. So ignore keep-on-top while a window
is maximized.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=673581
Starting the auto-maximize process on a window like a
META_WINDOW_DESKTOP window that is not maximizable gets placement into
a confused state and eventually results in the window being positioned
at the wrong position (the position that an auto-maximized window would
be restored to.)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=673566
"warning: 'match_tile_mode' may be used uninitialized in this function", it
complains. It thinks it's not unused because of other values of
window->tile_mode, but other complex logic ensures that it can't be
META_TILE_MAXIMIZED, so this is a safe commit.
Windows that have minimum widths larger than the screen can't be maximized,
even though we put them in a maximized state and allow users to do so:
the window just won't change size and position. Fix this by simply not giving
the option to maximize, like what happens for non-resizable windows.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=643606
A lot of code did something similar to:
MetaFrameBorders borders;
if (window->frame)
meta_frame_calc_borders (window->frame, &borders);
else
meta_frame_borders_clear (&borders);
Sometimes, the else part was omitted and we were unknowingly using
uninitalized values for OR windows. Clean this up by just testing
for a NULL frame in meta_frame_calc_borders and clearing for the
caller if so.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=643606
Since we're going to be evaluating the work area at startup now, we need
to make sure that we don't iterate over workspaces before they're assigned.
The easiest way to do this is to make sure that meta_window_get_workspaces

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=643606
Returns the matching tiled window. This is the topmost tiled window in a
complementary tile mode that is:
- on the same monitor;
- on the same workspace;
- spanning the remaining monitor width;
- there is no 3rd window stacked between both tiled windows that's
partially visible in the common edge.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=643075
Windows that start up in a size that is almost as big as the workarea create
extra work for the user (resizing or maximizing) so save the user's time by
detecting such windows and automaximize them.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=671677
Basically we don't really want to create windows that are almost maximized in
size but not actually maximized. This creates work for the user and makes it
very difficult to use and resize manually.
So set the newly unmaximized window size to the previously used size or 80% of the
size of the current workarea (attempting to retain natural aspect ratio if
possible), whichever is smaller.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=671677
After _unmanage the object is semantically dead even if technically it's not,
so remove the prefs listener here to prevent it being called for a dead
object.
In particular this fixes a crash when starting up gnome-shell with at least
one gimp utility window opened which causes mutter to create a MetaWindow for
it only to immediately get an UnmapNotify afterwards which causes mutter to
unmanage the MetaWindow. Afterwards prefs_changed_callback is called for this
dead MetaWindow and tries to dereference the window->monitor pointer which is
already NULL.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=671087
For maximized windows, titlebars cannot be used to reposition or
scale the window, so if an application does not use it to convey
useful information (other than the application name), the screen
space occupied by titlebars could be put to better use.
To account for this use case, a setting for requesting that windows'
titlebars should be hidden during maximization has been added to
GTK+, add support for this in the window manager.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=665617
The current code requires windows to be resizable to be considered
for tiling, which excludes all maximized/tiled windows. While this
restriction concurs with the desired behavior for edge-tiling, it
feels overly restrictive for keybindings.
As the edge-tiling code in update_move() already ensures the above
restriction, it seems save to remove it from the can_tile_maximized()
function, assuming that windows that are not meant to be tiled or
maximized won't provide a maximize function.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=648700
Usually tiling involves a size change and the frame is redrawn
automatically, however this is not the case when switching directly
between left- and right-tiled.

meta_window_get_current_tile_area() computes the area where the tiled window
should be based on the current pointer position but that's only meaningful
when the user is actually dragging the window.
When running the tiling constrain the pointer might be on other monitor and at
that point the window jumps to this other monitor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=642580
Since the frame window size that meta_window_move_resize() uses depends
on whether the window has horizontal/vertical resize functionality, we
need to update this flag before we resize the window.

If a window had a type hint intended for override-redirect windows
like NOTIFICATION, we ended up with a window that was decorated but
with a frame type of FRAME_TYPE_LAST, causing assertion failures.

meta_window_get_frame_type().
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=599988
_NET_FRAME_EXTENTS should contain the difference between where a window asked

A window can specify geometry that it is placed at. We need to exclude invisible

If XRANDR is availible, we track the first (or primary) output per
crtc (== xinerama monitor) so when the monitors change we can try

the window to the primary monitor.

Different bits of code were using slightly different checks to test
whether a window was an attached dialog. Add a new
meta_window_is_attached_dialog(), and use that everywhere.
Also, freeze the is-attached status when the window is first shown,
rather than recomputing it each time the caller asks, since this could
cause problems if a window changes its type after it has already been
attached, etc. However, if an attached window's parent is destroyed,
or an attached window changes its transient-for, then fix things up by
destroying the old MetaWindow and creating a new one (causing
compositor unmap and map events to be fired off, allowing the display
of the window to be fixed up).
Remove some code in display.c that tried to fix existing windows if
the gconf setting changed, but which didn't actually do anything (at
least under gnome-shell). However, if 654643 was fixed then the new
behavior with this patch would be that changing the gconf setting
would affect new dialogs, but not existing ones.

get_outer_rect now returns the visible region, and a new get_input_rect

There were actually *two* MetaFrameGeometry structs: one in theme-private.h,
one in frame.h. The latter public struct was populated by a mix of (void*)
casting and int pointers, usually pulling directly from the data in the private
struct.
Remove the public struct, replace it with MetaFrameBorders and scrap all
the pointer hacks to populate it, instead relying on both structs being used
in common code.
This commit should be relatively straightforward, and it should not do any
tricky logic at all, just a sophisticated find and replace.

In preparation for switching to handling the output shape purely by what we
paint, stop applying a shape to the frame of the window. Even when we restore
handling the output shape, this will change the behavior with respect to input;
transparent areas between the frame and the contents will stop clicks rather
than passing them through, but that is arguably at least as expected
considering how that we decorate shaped windows with a frame all around.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=644930
When detaching/attaching a dialog, we were only updating
appears-focused on the parent if the child itself was focused, but in
fact, we need to do it if the child has an attached child which is
focused too.
To simplify the case of detaching a focused subtree from its parent,
we change meta_window_propagate_focus_appearance() to use
@window->display->focus_window as the window to add/remove as the
attached_focus_window, and @window only as the starting point to
propagate from. That way we can propagate focus-removal up to
@window's (soon-to-be-ex-)ancestors without having to remove it from
its descendants as well.

Don't set a window's xtransient_for if it would create a loop. Since

order to pick up the correct style variant in the future.

If a window is not maximizable, then that probably means it looks dumb

An ARGB window with a frame is likely something like a transparent
terminal. It looks awful (and breaks transparency) to draw a big
opaque black shadow under the window, so clip out the region under
the terminal from the shadow we draw.
Add meta_window_get_frame_bounds() to get a cairo region for the
outer bounds of the frame of a window, and modify the frame handling
code to notice changes to the frame shape and discard a cached
region. meta_frames_apply_shapes() is refactored so we can extract
meta_frames_get_frame_bounds() from it.

If a window can not be tiled, e.g. due to its minimum size hints,
dragging away from the top after activating the maximize tile preview

well if necessary.

Since appears-focus only propagates up from modal dialogs, if an
application removed the modal hint from a dialog before destroying it,
then its parent would be left with a stray reference to it in
attached_focus_window, causing it to be permanently appears-focused.
The obvious fix, calling meta_window_propagate_focus_appearance() when
the modal hint is removed, tends to cause noticeable flashing, because
the window will get drawn unfocused and then focused again.
So instead we just change meta_window_propagate_focus_appearance() to
check the window type only when focusing in, not when focusing out.
This would also cause flashing, but in this case we can avoid it by
not notifying the change in appears-focus on the parent window if it
is the expected_focus_window (which it will be by this point). (This
does mean though that if something weird happens and the window
doesn't end up becoming the focus window, it won't get redrawn
unfocused until something else forces it to.)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=647613
We need to redraw a window's shadow any time the value of

Commit 96c43866 changed the tiling behavior to prefer edge tiling
over maximization in corner cases (well, quite literally). As a
side effect, it only allows untiling of edge-tiled windows by
dragging the window towards the correct edge.
This patch restores the old behavior for untiling, while keeping
the new behavior for untiled windows.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=645455
For tiling, we check whether the pointer is near the edges of
the monitor where the pointer is located, so checking that the
pointer is within the bounds of the monitor is unnecessary and
confusing.
If dragging the title bar to the edge of the screen to side-tile,
it's easy to end up above the workarea and end up maximized instead.
Make the entire side of the screen act as edge-tiling.

In a performance or regression testing environment, we may want to
only manage windows from a particular test program, and ignore all

This adds a preference that when enabled makes all windows not on
the primary monitor be visible on all workspaces (i.e. not part of the
workspace switching handling).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609258
Sometimes on_all_workspaces is requested by the client/user, and sometimes
its calculated implicitly due to internal state. We split this up so that
we know when the user has explicitly asked for sticky window, when e.g.
setting wmspec properties or storing session info.
on_all_workspaces means this window is visible on all workspaces.
on_all_workspaces_requested, means the user explicitly made the window
sticky somehow (via imported session, _NET_WM_STATE from another wm,
toggled in the window menu, etc). It always implies on_all_workspaces is
TRUE.
Right now the only time we set on_all_workspaces is for override-redirect
windows, but later we can add a "windows on non-primary monitor are not
part of the workspace switching" feature.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609258
The latter move method will place the window by the origin of the

If mutter is going to be a "real" library, then it should install its
includes so that users can do
#include <meta/display.h>
rather than
#include <display.h>
So rename the includedir accordingly, move src/include to src/meta,
and fix up all internal references.
There were a handful of header files in src/include that were not
installed; this appears to have been part of a plan to keep core/,
ui/, and compositor/ from looking at each others' private includes,
but that wasn't really working anyway. So move all non-installed
headers back into core/ or ui/.

If we are previewing hidden windows, we might be previewing them in a context
like a thumbnail view of a workspace where we care about positioning. So, instead

visibility, even if we don't end up showing it.

Maximized tiled windows end up with an inconsistent tile mode when
unmaximized by other means than dragging the window free (e.g.
using the unmaximize button or double clicking the title bar), so
reset the tile mode when unmaximizing.
This is not a problem for side-by-side tiling, as there are no
alternatives to dragging the window free.
When a tiled window is maximized (e.g. by clicking the title bar
button), unmaximizing the window restores the tiled state. While
this is reasonable for side-by-side tiling, it is confusing for
"maximize" tiled windows, as unmaximization has no visible effect.
Change unmaximize to only restore the tiled state of side-by-side
tiled windows.
The original patch triggered "maximize" when the window was dragged
to the top, so that the pointer was below or on the monitor edge and
above the work area's top.
If there's no chrome at the top of the monitor, so that monitor edge
and work area top fall together, the pointer cannot be moved above
the work area's top, so tiling was not triggered.
The old behavior of being able to shake loose a maximized window
overlaps with and is for the most part superceded by top edge tiling.
This commit changes the code to only enable shake loose behavior
when edge tiling is disabled.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=630548
In addition to the existing side-by-side tiling modes, this commit

The meta_window_handle_mouse_grab_op_event function ensures
the tile_mode variable is in a consistent state after a drag
op is finished.
The way this is current done is:
if (!window->maximized_vertically &&
window->tile_mode != META_TILE_NONE)
window->tile_mode = META_TILE_NONE;
While valid, it doesn't "read" as well as using the
META_WINDOW_TILED_SIDE_BY_SIDE macro, since the macro is specifically
about side-by-side tiling.
This commit just changes things to use the macro and to not bother
checking the tile mode (since if we just reset it anyway, then it doesn't
matter if the value is right or wrong to begin with).

Currently, the new tiling feature, supports side-by-side, horizontal

For functions (but not callback types), '(closure)' is used on the

A maximized window can't be resized from the screen edges (preserves
Fitts law goodness for the application), but it's still possible
to start a resize drag with alt-middle-button. Currently we just
don't let the user resize the window, while showing drag feedback;
it's more useful to let the user "break" out from the resize.
This provides a fast way to get a window partially aligned with
the screen edges - maximize, then alt-drag it out from one edge.
Behavior choices in this patch:
- You can drag out a window out of maximization in both directions -
smaller and larger. This can be potentilaly useful in multihead.
- Dragging a window in only one direction unmaximizes the window
fully, rather than leaving it in a horizontally/vertically
maximized state. This is done because the horizontally/vertically
maximzed states don't have clear visual representation and can
be confusing to the user.
- If you drag back to the maximized state after breaking out,
maximization is restored, but you can't maximize a window by
dragging to the full size if it didn't start out that way.
A new internal function meta_window_unmaximize_with_gravity() is
added for implementing this; it's a hybrid of
meta_window_unmaximize() and meta_window_resize_with_gravity().
