│ Release notes for i3 v4.20 │

└──────────────────────────────┘
|
|
|
|
This is i3 v4.19. This version is considered stable. All users of i3 are
|
|
strongly encouraged to upgrade.
|
|
|
|
Background/wallpaper workaround:
|
|
|
|
Some login managers (e.g. gdm) start the X11 server with the -background none
|
|
flag. When this flag is set, a background needs to be explicitly set later in
|
|
the X11 session, otherwise stale copies of closed windows remain visible on the
|
|
X11 root window (symptom looks like “my terminal window is not closing”).
|
|
|
|
i3 works around this situation by setting a screenshot as background when
|
|
starting. Any background you set before starting i3 (e.g. in your Xsession) or
|
|
after starting i3 (e.g. via exec statements in the i3 config) will be visible.
|
|
|
|
A downside of this workaround is that if you have any windows already open in
|
|
your X11 session, those will be part of the screenshot.
|
|
|
|
To fix this issue, starting in v4.20, i3 detects whether the -background none
|
|
option is enabled and only then sets a screenshot as background.

|
• default config: use dex for XDG autostart
|
|
• i3-nagbar: position on focused monitor by default
|
|
• i3-nagbar: add option to position on primary monitor
|
|
• alternate focusing tab/stack children-parent containers by clicking on their titlebars
|
|
• i3bar: use first bar config by default
|
|
• i3-dump-log -f now uses UNIX sockets instead of pthreads. The UNIX socket approach
|
|
should be more reliable and also more portable.
|
|
• Implement the include config directive
|
|
• Implement optionally showing window icons in titlebar
|
|
• Allow for_window to match against WM_CLIENT_MACHINE
|
|
• Add %machine placeholder (WM_CLIENT_MACHINE) to title_format
|
|
• Allow multiple output names in 'move container|workspace to output'
|
|
• Add 'move container|workspace to output next'
