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