Introduce MetaSettings and add the settings managed by MetaBackend into
the new object. These settings include: experimental-features and UI
scaling factor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Let the backend implementations create their own input settings
backend, as is done with other backend specific special purpose
backends. Also use the macro for declaring the GType.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=782152
meta_backend_real_post_init() had some open coded initialization with
some unexpected interdependencies. Split these up and move them to their
own functions in order to make meta_backend_real_post_init() a bit more
readable.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=782152
Instead of looking at the GTK+ settings, check the logical monitor
state and determine the UI scaling factor given the maximum logical
monitor scale. This is only enabled when the monitor config manager
feature is enabled, as only then can a scale be explicitly configured.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
The UI scaling depends on whether the framebuffers are scaled. Enable
the caller to determine the what scale its UI should be drawn in, in
relation to the stage coordinate space by calling this function. A new
singal "ui-scaling-factor-changed" is added in order to liston for for
changes.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Window scaling is a clutter feature used to enable automatic scaling of
stage windows when running under as an application in windowing system.
Clutter in mutter does not support running as a stand-alone application
toolkit, so lets remove this unused feature.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Instead of using a environment variable, add a new 'experimental
feature' gsetting keyword "monitor-config-manager" that enables the use
of the new MetaMonitorConfigManager. This commit also makes it possible
to switch between the two systems without restarting mutter.
The D-Bus API is disabled when the experimental feature is not enabled,
and clients trying to access it will get a access-denied error in
response. A new property 'IsExperimentalApiEnabled' is added to let the
D-Bus client know whether it is possible to use the experimental API or
not.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
This commit adds support for rendering onto enlarged per logical
monitor framebuffers, using the scaled clutter stage views, for HiDPI
enabled logical monitors.
This works by scaling the mode of the monitors in a logical monitors by
the scale, no longer relying on scaling the window actors and window
geometry for making windows have the correct size on HiDPI monitors.
It is disabled by default, as in automatically created configurations
will still use the old mode. This is partly because Xwayland clients
will not yet work good enough to make it feasible.
To enable, add the 'scale-monitor-framebuffer' keyword to the
org.gnome.mutter.experimental-features gsettings array.
It is still possible to specify the mode via the new D-Bus API, which
has been adapted.
The adaptations to the D-Bus API means the caller need to be aware of
how to position logical monitors on the stage grid. This depends on the
'layout-mode' property that is used (see the DisplayConfig D-Bus
documentation).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
This gsetting will allow the adding of keywords to a array, where each
keyword may enable an experimental feauter, if the given mutter version
supports that particular experimental feature. Emphasis is put on the
lack of guarantee that any such keyword has any effect. Currently no
keywords are defined.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Implement MetaDnd for emitting DnD signals to plugins such as gnome-shell. The
xdnd handling code comes from gnome-shell, and it is hidden behind MetaDnd now.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765003
Add private API for overriding the compositor configuration, i.e. the
compositor type (X11 WM or Wayland compositor) and backend type. This
will make it possible to add a special test backend used by src/tests/.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Change meta_monitor_manager_get_logical_monitor_at() to use floats,
replace users of meta_monitor_manager_get_monitor_at_point() to use the
API that returns a logical monitor and remove the now unused function.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
The method used for getting the current logical monitor (the monitor
where the pointer cursor is currently at) depends on the backend type,
so move that logic to the corresponding backends.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Let the backend initialize the cursor tracker, and change all call
sites to get the cursor tracker from the backend instead of from the
screen. It wasn't associated with the screen anyway, so the API was
missleading.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
In preparation for further refactorizations, rename the MetaMonitorInfo
struct to MetaLogicalMonitor. Eventually, part of MetaLogicalMonitor
will be split into a MetaMonitor type.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Instead of hiding stage views enablement behind MUTTER_STAGE_VIEWS=1,
default to enable it, while making it possible to disable using
MUTTER_STAGE_VIEWS=0 instead.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=770366
Instead of continuing eventually crashing with a segmentation fault due
to a missing renderer, make MetaBackend an GInitable, and gracefully
handle the failure to fully create the backend with an EXIT_FAILURE.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=769036
Being a listener to a signal, it is inconvenient to enforce order of
execution between different signal listeners. If there are things in
the backend that should be updated before various other signal
handlers, make sure so is done by emitting the signal after having
explicitly notified the backend.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=768976
The stage resizing was placed in the generic backend, which was only
run on certain configurations (when running nested or using the native
backend). This commits makes the resizing more explicit thus more
obvious.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=768976
MetaRenderer is meant to be the object responsible for rendering the
scene graph. It will contain the logic related to the cogl winsys
backend, the clutter backend, and the clutter stage window.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=768976
Introduce two new clutter backends: MetaClutterBackendX11 and
MetaClutterBackendNative. They are so far only wrap ClutterBackendX11
and ClutterBackendEglNative respectively, but the aim is to move things
from the original clutter backends when needed.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=768976
It indirectly triggers expensive operations in gnome-shell
(js/ui/keyboard.js), which turns out too expensive if we happen to operate
the shell simultaneously with 2 devices that will trigger the operations
there.
So just rate limit the signal emission, defer to an idle and just emit
the last device gotten. Worst that will happen is that we may possibly
emit the signal on the same device consecutively.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=753527
The wp_pointer_constraints protocol is a protocol which enables clients
to manipulate the behavior of the pointer cursor associated with a seat.
Currently available constraints are locking the pointer to a static
position, and confining the pointer to a given region.
Currently locking is fully implemented, and confining is implemented for
rectangular confinement regions.
What else is lacking is less troublesome semantics for enabling the lock
or confinement; currently the only requirement implemented is that the
window that appears focused is the one that may aquire the lock.
This means that a pointer could be 'stolen' by creating a new window that
receives active focus, or when using focus-follows-mouse, a pointer
passes a window that has requested a lock. This semantics can be changed
and the protocol itself allows any semantics as seems fit.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=744104
Add support for sending relative pointer motion deltas to clients who
request such events by creating wp_relative_pointer objects via
wp_relative_pointer_manager.
This currently implements the unstable version 1 from wayland-protocols.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=744104
Failing to initialize Clutter isn't something it's useful to report
into automatic bug tracking systems or get a backtrace for - in fact,
the most common case is that DISPLAY is unset or points to a
non-existent X server. So simply exit rather than calling g_error().
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=757311
This seems nicer/tidier than the current X11 (center on the span of all
monitors) or native (so close to the activities corner it's hard not
to trigger it) platform behaviors.
This code also takes over the native-specific pointer warping that
happens when the pointer was over a removed output.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=746896
On startup, the cursor is kept hidden if there's any touchscreen available.
If the device that was last interacted is removed, we check on available
pointing devices though, so we don't possibly hide the pointer if there are
further mice/touchpads/etc.
Devices being added don't update cursor visibility, we wait for the user
interacting with those instead.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=712775
This function can be used to trigger changes depending on the device type
that is currently emitting the events. So far, it is used to switch cursor
visibility on/off on touchscreen interaction.
A "last-device-updated" signal has also been added, in order allow hooking
other behavior changes (eg. OSK) when the last device changes.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=712775
This object internally keeps track of the relevant input configuration,
and goes through its vmethods in order to apply the configuration on the
backend-specific devices.
So far, only mouse/touchpad settings are actually attached to GSettings
changes. ::set_matrix(), meant for tablets/touchscreens, is not hooked
yet.
One caveat is that meta_input_settings_create() may return NULL if the
backend does not own the windowing system (wayland nested on X11 being
the one case), and thus device settings can't be changed freely.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=739397
We'll need this in the wayland frontend to send a modifiers event to
clients.
Note that on X11 this isn't needed because key events include the
group index encoded in modifier state. If we ever want to make the
wayland frontend work with the X11 backend we'll handle it then.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736433
Setting the scaling factor immediately after calling clutter_init()
avoids creating the stage at one size, then later resizing it to
a different size.
