1 | News in 1.0rc3: | 1 | News in 1.0: |
2 | * Introduced support for mouse buttons in the keys file | 2 | * Fixed shape handling, now shaped corners have border. |
3 | - Mouse buttons are bound to new `keys' Mouse1, Mouse2, etc. | 3 | * Allow negative numbers in command "Workspace" |
4 | - Also a new modifier `OnDesktop' to specify actions that should take place | 4 | * Added utility fluxbox-remote |
5 | when you click on the desktop -- without this, mouse bindings are global | 5 | * Allows script access to most fluxbox commands; |
6 | * Added a utility to the project that automatically updates configuration | 6 | Support must be turned on in the init file with |
7 | files when we change the syntax -- your current mouse bindings on the | 7 | session.screen<N>.allowRemoteActions; the syntax is, e.g., |
8 | desktop will be added to your keys file automatically | 8 | fluxbox-remote "CustomMenu ~/.fluxbox/custommenu" |
9 | * Introduced new key command: HideMenus | 9 | * Added keycommands :AddWorkspace and :RemoveLastWorkspace |
10 | * Introduced a key command to display a menu stored in an arbitrary file: | 10 | * Added some missing Open Office entries and window managers, |
11 | CustomMenu /path/to/file | 11 | plus some other minor changes in fluxbox-generate_menu |
12 | * More extended wm hints support: | 12 | * Updated languages: |
13 | * _NET_WM_MOVERESIZE_CANCEL (new in version 1.4.draft-1), | 13 | sv_SE, zh_CN, de_*, es_ES, es_AR, en_US, en_GB, pt_* |
14 | * _NET_REQUEST_FRAME_EXTENTS | 14 | fi_FI, fr_FR |
15 | * _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_MENU | ||
16 | * _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_TOOLBAR | ||
17 | * Little simplification of data structure for keybindings (Mark) | ||
18 | Side effects: | ||
19 | - "Mod4 a b" now behaves like "Mod4 a None b" -- in fact, "None" is now | ||
20 | completely obsolete | ||
21 | - You can press "Escape" to cancel any Emacs-style keychain in progress | ||
22 | (unless it's bound to something else) | ||
23 | - If there is a conflict between bindings, the first one in the file wins | ||
24 | - Fixes handling of keychains like "Mod4 a Mod1 b" | ||
25 | - Should fix some issues with "None" modifier | ||
26 | * Updated following translations: | ||
27 | pt_PT, es_ES, es_AR, pt_BR, de_DE, nb_NO | ||
28 | * Support per-window transparency settings. | ||
29 | ( sf.net patch #1511042, feature #1108692 ) | ||
30 | - new "Transparency" menu in the window menu | ||
31 | - new apps file attribute: | ||
32 | [alpha] {int int} (or just {int}) | ||
33 | Where numbers represent focused and unfocused transparency, | ||
34 | respectively. One number only will be used for both. | ||
35 | - Also, show toggle status for shade and stick in window menu. | ||
36 | * Introduced new key command: SetAlpha [[+-]<int> [[+-]<int>]] | ||
37 | - with no arguments, returns the focused window to default settings | ||
38 | - with one argument, changes both focused and unfocused settings the same | ||
39 | way | ||
40 | - with two arguments, the first changes the focused alpha, and the second | ||
41 | changes the unfocused alpha | ||
42 | E.g. SetAlpha 127 +5 will set the focused alpha to 127 and increment the | ||
43 | unfocused alpha by 5 (until it reaches 255) | ||
44 | |||
45 | * Added resource and menu item for maximizing over external tabs | ||
46 | * Renamed session.screen*.iconbar.deiconifyMode to | ||
47 | session.screen*.userFollowModel (Mark) | ||
48 | This resource is used for: | ||
49 | - clicking a window on a different workspace in the iconbar | ||
50 | - _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW messages where the source is a pager | ||
51 | - clicking a client in the workspace menu (and the opposite is used for | ||
52 | right clicks) | ||
53 | Possible values are: | ||
54 | - Follow: go to the workspace of the selected window | ||
55 | - Current: bring the window to the current workspace | ||
56 | - SemiFollow: act like Current for iconified windows, else Follow | ||
57 | - Ignore: leave it alone | ||
58 | * Added support for negative arguments to the `Tab' key command to count | ||
59 | backwards from the last tab in the group | ||
60 | * Added option to :Minimize key command to lower all windows in the same | ||
61 | layer as the focused window,syntax is :Minimize (layer) | ||
62 | * Several changes for background style option: | ||
63 | - now support `background: mod' to coincide with fbsetroot -mod -- | ||
64 | In addition to `background.color' and `background.colorTo', this option | ||
65 | must also set `background.modX' and `background.modY' to integers | ||
66 | - added `background: none' for styles that do not include a background | ||
67 | - fixed bug with style backgrounds not getting set when changing styles | ||
68 | - updated default styles to be valid wrt background options | ||
69 | * Made some changes to the way autogrouping in the apps file works | ||
70 | - Introduced new syntax [group] (workspace) to group new windows only with | ||
71 | windows on the current workspace. | ||
72 | * XEMBED support for systemtray. | ||
73 | * Added typeahead support to menus (patch by Philipp Goedl, modified by Mark | ||
74 | and Matteo Galiazzo) | ||
75 | - Added new style item menu.frame.underlineColor: <color> for displaying | ||
76 | matching items | ||
77 | * session.screen<N>.defaultDeco now allows same strings as apps file | ||
