1This file is intended to provide a rough roadmap of the development This file is intended to provide a rough roadmap of the development.
2towards the Fluxbox 1.0.0 release.
3
4The process will involve a number of development releases in the 0.9
5series until features and execution (i.e. bugs) stabilise.
6
7Some of the interesting new features beyond 0.1.14 that we'd like to work towards are:
8
9- Layer Support
10- New action system (key/mouse bindings)
11- Tabgroup rewrite (should also allow more commands to act on the whole group)
12- Tabs embedded in titlebar
13- Most recently used window cycling
14- Toolbar modes
15- Integration of remember patch (or at least the concept)
16- Smarter config menus (ability to modify numeric values)
17- fix Xinerama support again
18- XRandr support
19
20Some minor ones (mainly bugfixes or small things) that I feel like noting are
21(many of these based on feature requests or bug reports from sourceforge):
22
23- Key bindings for:
24 -> restart
25 -> specific tab numbers
26 -> tabgroup keybindings
27 -> menu navigation
28 -> moving windows to next workspace/tabgroup
29- fix up focus issues (click to focus sometimes acts like sloppy)
30- proper initialisation from hints (e.g. Eterm -D 2)
31- fix toggledecoration to not give tabs back etc
32- snap to windows
33- Pixmap buttons
34- Shaped menus/toolbar/slit
35- improved command line output for help option (plus include compile-time options
36 etc in output for improved bug reporting)
37- layer configuration things for toolbar/slit/numlayers
38- fix outline window moving
39
40Some lower priority ones ("thoughts"/maybes):
41
42- transparency (major)
43- keybindings for directional focus moving:
44 -> nextWindowLeft/Right/Up/Down
45 - looks for the window left of the current one, and gives it focus
46- more powerful autogrouping matching
47- stop window movement by clicking on border (only on frame instead)
48- mouse button "keys"
49- ability to specify keybinding actions for titlebar buttons (i.e. configurable actions for titlebar buttons).
50
51Notes:
52 - (optional) Unique per-workspace backgrounds
53 => To be made into separate application, if time permits will try to
54 get this done before 1.0.0rc1
55
56Known Bugs (to be looked at at some time):
57 - Focus acts sloppy on window close/warp, or when decoration-less window is "focused"
58
59Fixed known bugs:
60 - Doesn't redraw properly after unshade
61

181Bugfixes:
182 - As many of those little niggly things as possible (some of which may be
183 non-trivial to fix).
184
185Other:
186 - app (fbev?) for per workspace backgrounds, among other things
187 - should do some profiling and optimisation
188
189----------------------------------------------------------
190Release: 1.0.0rc1
191Approx Date: ?
192
193 - Bug Fixes & tweaks. Nothing major.
194
195This release is aiming to be a very close approximation for 1.0.0.
196There is a fair amount of cooling time before the full release to allow
197for an rc2 or more if necessary, but we'd really like to iron out all
198those little bugs that are remaining around here.
199
200----------------------------------------------------------
201Release: 1.0.0
202Approx Date: ?
203
204 - Obviously any remaining bug-fixes and small tweaks.
205 - Translations.
206 - Documentation.
207
208
209The dates for later releases of the development branch are not estimated
210because they are difficult to estimate. New features add new bugs. There
211are always little things being added. The developers are also constantly
212interrupted by "real life" events.
213
214However, we really do want to get 1.0.0 released. So don't despair. It's coming.
