Dogcows Code - chaz/openbox/blob - CHANGELOG

   1 Changelog for Openbox:
   2
   3 2.1.0:
   4  * drop shadows for fonts, optional. (dropShadowFonts   (Ben Jansens)
   5    in the rc file).
   6
   7  * GNOME 2 Support. (Fixed problems with Gnome 2        (Ben Jansens)
   8    taskbar.
   9
  10  * Redo borders for styles. Any flat textured object    (Ben Jansens)
  11    (solid or gradient) can add "border" to its texture
  12    and then its ".borderColor" resource will be used
  13    for a 1 pixel-wide border around the element.
  14
  15  * Add an optional Sticky button for window titlebars.
  16    It can be added by putting an 'S' in your
  17    titlebarLayout.                                      (Scott Moynes)
  18
  19  * Fix SendTo menus. They would keep workspaces that
  20    had been deleted.                                    (Ben Jansens)
  21
  22  * Fixes for workspace switching. Putting old code      (Ben Jansens)
  23    back.
  24
  25  * Fixes for workspace warping. Window and mouse would  (Ben Jansens)
  26    move slightly out of sync, as one motion event would
  27    get dropped. Other windows could also be selected
  28    for moving during the warp. Now everything works as
  29    expected.
  30
  31  * Better workspace changing for sticky windows, don't  (Jason Kasper)
  32    unmap/remap them, causing them to flicker. But keep
  33    sloppy focus working right still.
  34
  35  * Fixed Sloppy Focus-Auto Raise bug, as exibited by    (Ben Jansens)
  36    fullscreen SDL applications. A frame window would
  37    be raised over the app.
  38
  39  * Enforce windows' functionality, so that windows that (Ben Jansens)
  40    aren't suppoosed to be able to perform actions, such
  41    as iconify, can't end up being iconified anyhow.
  42    (Fixes the "Desktop Access" feature in KDE.)
  43
  44  * Fix window gravity handling for an application
  45    resizing (ConfigureRequest event for resize only).   (Ben Jansens)
  46
  47  * Fix support for the Shape extension.                 (Ben Jansens)
  48
  49  * Fix for recognizing kde systray windows unmapping.   (Ben Jansens)
  50
  51 2.0.0:
  52  * Add an rc option (modiferMask) to allow changing     (Ben Jansens)
  53    which modifier combo Openbox uses for mouse
  54    interation with windows.
  55
  56  * Add an rc option (rootScrollDirection) to specify    (Ben Jansens)
  57    the direction the workspaces scroll when using the
  58    mouse wheel on the root window.
  59
  60  * Add a new checkmark pixmap in the menus to denote    (Ben Jansens)
  61    selected items, instead of the old colored box.
  62
  63  * Add "workspace warping" while moving a window. (Grab (Ben Jansens)
  64    a window and move it past the edge of the screen, so
  65    that your mouse pointer hits the edge, and you'll
  66    flip to the next workspace.
  67
  68  * Add options intheconfig menu for ignoring shaded and (Ben Jansens)
  69    full-maximized windows when placing new windows.
  70
  71  * Style extension for flatborder texture type.         (Ben Jansens)
  72
  73  * Add a window-snapping offset (edgeSnapOffset in the  (Ben Jansens)
  74    rc file).
  75
  76  * Window resistance snapping (specified with           (Ben Jansens)
  77    windowToWindowSnap and windowToEdgeSnap in the rc
  78    file).
  79
  80  * Sticky windows appear in the workspace menus         (Ben Jansens)
  81    for all workspaces, and generally behave like
  82    a normal window, except appearing on all
  83    workspaces.
  84
  85  * Xft font support for styles.                         (Ben Jansens)
  86
  87  * Xinerama support for window placement, maximization, (Ben Jansens)
  88    and snapping.
  89
  90  * NETWM/EWMH Support.                                  (Scott Moynes and
  91                                                          Ben Jansens)
  92
  93  * KDE 3 Support.                                       (Scott Moynes and
  94                                                          Ben Jansens)
  95
  96  * window zone resizing (specified by resizeZones in    (Ben Jansens)
  97    the rc file). Allows you to resize a window in 2
  98    halves or 4 quarters.
  99
 100  * Allow any style settings to be placed in the rc      (Ben Jansens)
 101    file, where they will override all styles
 102    (especially useful for the rootCommand or fonts).
 103
 104  * Makes the ~/.openbox dir for you if it doesn't       (Ben Jansens)
 105    exist.
 106
 107  * Window-to-window snapping (including corner          (Ben Jansens)
 108    snapping!).
 109
 110  * Properly save/restore your menu position when        (Ben Jansens)
 111    Openbox reconfigures (e.g. when changing
 112    styles).
 113
 114  * Disable the current workspace in the send-to menu.   (Ben Jansens)
 115
 116  * Added UnderMouse window placement algorithm/type.    (Ben Jansens)
 117
 118  * Added ClickMouse window placement algorithm/type.    (Ben Jansens)
 119
 120  * Added a runtime option for hiding the toolbar.       (Ben Jansens)
 121
 122  * Custom ordering of windows' titlebar elements with   (Ben Jansens)
 123    a titlebarLayout option added to the rc file.
 124
 125  * Rolling the mouse wheel on a window's title bar will (Ben Jansens)
 126    shade/unshade the window. rolling the mouse wheel on
 127    the root window will change workspaces.
 128
 129  * Better handling of the rc file and its configuration (Ben Jansens)
 130    options. The file is written each time an option in
 131    the file is changed, instead of being written at
 132    shutdown. This means that you can edit the file by
 133    hand while in Openbox, and then choose reconfig or
 134    restart to have it use the new rc file.
 135
 136  * Changed the default configuration file from          (Ben Jansens)
 137    ~/.blackboxrc to ~/.openbox/rc.
 138
 139  * Changed the menu from an rcfile option to a          (Ben Jansens)
 140    command-line option. use 'openbox -menu ' to select
 141    an alternate menu. The default menu used is
 142    ~/.openbox/menu. If the default, or the file you
 143    specify does not exist, the global menu is tried.
 144    And if the global menu also does not exist, a
 145    simple, internal menu is used instead.
