3.4.3:
* Add Ukrainian translation
* Updated Japanese translation
* Updated Dutch translation
* Updated Polish translation
* Updated Italian translation
* New strings for the Swedish translation
* Improve focus fallback - don't fallback to windows you can't focus cycle
(Alt-Tab) to
* Don't show the client border for undecorated windows when keepBorder is on,
just the outer border
* Some improvements in the smart placement to help it find a place more
often. This needs more work still.
* Don't focus windows that appear under the mouse in mouse-focus mode unless
underMouse is enabled
* Don't move focus when the window under the pointer iconifies unless
underMouse is enabled
* Respect min/max window sizes when a window is fullscreened or maximized.
This fixes problems experienced with maximizing vnc windows
* Don't XUngrabKeyboard unless we need to
* Correct calculations for the menu header width, so that they are not
ellisized unnecessarily
* Advanced support for partial struts. When you maximize a window it will
now only use the struts it needs to. This can greatly improve
xinerama functionality.
* Fixes for how the dock is placed in certain positions on screen (off by 1
errors)
* New default bindings:
- don't unshade when clicking on the titlebar
* Don't show the top resize area in the titlebar when a window is shaded
* Optimize rendering of window decorations
* Optimize splitvertical gradients - no more malloc/free during render
* Let the theme specify all colors for a splitvertical gradient with the new
.splitTo theme elements
* Improve decorations for maximized windows. Don't draw the side borders in
the titlebar.
* Don't resist against desklet windows (below layer + skip taskbar)
* New actions for dynamically adjusting your desktop workspaces:
- AddDesktopLast, RemoveDesktopLast
- AddDesktopCurrent, RemoveDestopCurrent
* New <center> option for smart placement (default is on)
* Fix MoveToCenter in Xinerama (TwinView) setups
* Let you lower a window without lowering its children or siblings
* Don't set the default Openbox icon on child windows, let them inherit the
icon from their parents
* Fix Onyx themes - fade out disabled buttons
* Don't auto-resize windows to fit on screen if they are UserSpecified
Size or Position
* Don't activate windows which raise themselves anymore. It was a nice
thought, but it caused too much problems
* Rewrite of the actions subsystem
* Removed deprecated actions:
- ShowDesktop, UnshowDesktop (Use ToggleShowDesktop)
- ResizeRelativeVert, ResizeRelativeHorz (Use ResizeRelative)
* Combined the MoveFromEdge* actions with MoveToEdge* actions, and removed
the MoveFromEdge* action names.
* Switch desktops when moving a window and you drag it to the edge of the
screen (added the <screenEdgeWarpTime> option for this)
* Add actions to add/remove the last desktop in the client list menus
* Use startup notification when launching ObConf in the default root menu
* Remove the desktop switching dialog, as it confuses people and they don't
know how to turn it off to switch desktops instantly. Some other
incarnation may return in the future.
* Add optional <finalactions> option for NextWindow, PreviousWindow,
DirectionalFocus*, and DirectionalTarget* actions
* Don't focus new helper windows unless they are alone in their group. This
fixes gucharmap
* Fancy keyboard window moving:
- Shift-arrow will move the window to the next edge
- Control-arrow will move the window by only 1 pixel
- Arrow will move the window by a larger number of pixels
* Fancy keyboard window resizing:
- The first arrow will choose an edge to resize (then you can grow or
shrink the window on that edge)
- Hitting an arrow perpendicular to your selected edge will choose a
different edge to resize
- Shift-arrow will grow/shrink the window to the next edge
- Control arrow will grow/shrink the window by only 1 pixel
- Arrow will grow/shrink the window by a larger number of pixel
* Timeout when synchronously resizing a window so you can still resize busy
or dead application windows
* Let you specify keyboard shortcuts in your root menus with _. Such as
label="XTe_rm" would make 'r' the shortcut key.
* Fixes for placing windows with per-app settings:
- fix bug with windows being placed far off-screen occasionally
- allow you to place windows partially outside of the screen
- let per-app settings override program-specified positions (but not if it
is user-specified)
* Add user-specified margins to the configuration file
* Fix for transient windows in groups with transient windows of the group
transients. That wasn't supposed to be legible. i.e. 2 group transients
and 1 direct transient for one of the group transients.
* Don't include child/parent windows in tests for being occluded or occluding
other windows, since you can't raise/lower above/below them. This fixes
the raiselower action for windows which have children.
* Reduce the size of the middle gradient in splitvertical gradients. This
makes the split harder than it was in 3.4.2
* Don't include debian/ dir in releases
* Add resize bindings for the edges to the default hardcoded bindings
* Fix focus cycle indicator positioning for some windows (i.e. OpenOffice)
* Add the MoveResizeTo action. This is very xinerama aware! It also lets
you move a window to any edge of any screen.
* Make actions that look for edges include the dock's edges (e.g. MoveToEdge)
* New preferred option for the Execute action is <command> instead of
<execute> but the old one will still work.
* Fix for moving windows partially offsceen causing them to jump far away
* Fix for windows which are not on any monitor, to keep them on screen
partically too
* Require libstartupnotification 0.8 in configure (we use stuff that was not
around in some earlier versions)
* Grab the server when mapping windows to avoid race conditions in other
programs (getting MapNotify before you are visible)
* Handle case gracefully when ConfigureRequent for restacking specifies
a siblig which we aren't managing
* Use KeyRelease to run things from Openbox menus, so that the release
does not go to the focused window (causing the new window to not get
focus)
* Add new actions for controlling window decorations:
- Decorate, Undecorate
3.4.2:
* Add ability to set the bevel strength in themes
* Fix for focusLast with omnipresent windows
