and the CaptureInput mode. They are a source of unneeded complexity
in WindowServer and have proven prone to regressions, so this patch
replaces them with a simple input preemption scheme using Popups.
Popup windows now have ergonomics similar to menus: When open,
a popup preempts all mouse and key events for the entire window
stack; however, they are fragile and will close after WindowServer
swallows the first event outside them. This is similar to how combo
box windows and popups work in the classic Windows DE and has the
added benefit of letting the user click anywhere to dismiss a popup
without having to worry about unwanted interactions with other
widgets.
This patch adds a missing minimize check for highligted windows in
WindowStack::for_each_visible_window_of_type_from_front_to_back().
Minimized windows should not be treated as visible in this context.
Previously, iterating through each visible Window when recomputing
occlusions in the Compositor would cause a crash if a highlighted
Window is also minimized at the same time. As the WindowSwitcher
currently highligts Windows even when they are minimized, opening
it while any Window is minimized would cause WindowServer to crash.
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.
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.
This patch moves the window stack out of WindowManager and into its own
WindowStack class.
A WindowStack is an ordered list of windows with an optional highlight
window. The highlight window mechanism is used during Super+Tab window
switching to temporarily bring a window to the front.
This is mostly mechanical, just moving the code to its own class.
