.BI "repaint-window=" N
|
|
Set the approximate length of the repaint window in milliseconds. The repaint
|
|
window is used to control and reduce the output latency for clients. If the
|
|
window is longer than the output refresh period, the repaint will be done
|
|
immediately when the previous repaint finishes, not processing client requests
|
|
in between. If the repaint window is too short, the compositor may miss the
|
|
target vertical blank, increasing output latency. The default value is 7
|
|
milliseconds. The allowed range is from -10 to 1000 milliseconds. Using a
|
|
negative value will force the compositor to always miss the target vblank.
|

.BI "idle-time="seconds
|

sets Weston's idle timeout in seconds. This idle timeout is the time

|
|
|
|
.IR Important
|
|
: This option may also be set via Weston's '-i' command
|
|
line option and will take precedence over the current .ini option. This
|
|
means that if both weston.ini and command line define this idle-timeout
|
|
time, the one specified in the command-line will be used. On the other
|
|
hand, if none of these sets the value, default idle timeout will be

.BI "wait-for-debugger=" true
|
|
Raises SIGSTOP before initializing the compositor. This allows the user to
|
|
attach with a debugger and continue execution by sending SIGCONT. This is

|
useful for debugging a crash on start-up when it would be inconvenient to

Boolean, defaults to

.BR false .
|
|
|
|
.I TENTATIVE, EXPERIMENTAL, WORK IN PROGRESS:
|
|
Color management enables the use of ICC files to describe monitor color
|
|
behavior, Wayland protocol extensions for clients to describe their color
|
|
spaces and perform monitor profiling, and tone mapping required to enable HDR
|
|
video modes. This extended functionality comes at the cost of heavier image

|
processing and sometimes a loss of some hardware off-loading features like

|
composite-bypass.

.BI "output-decorations=" true
|

.SH "LIBINPUT SECTION"
|
|
The

|
|
backend. The defaults are determined by libinput and vary according to what is

|
most sensible for any given device.

Available configuration are:

|
.BI "enable-tap=" false
|
|
Enables tap to click on touchpad devices.
|
|
.TP 7
|
|
.BI "tap-and-drag=" false
|
|
For touchpad devices with \fBenable-tap\fR enabled. If the user taps, then
|
|
taps a second time, this time holding, the virtual mouse button stays down for
|
|
as long as the user keeps their finger on the touchpad, allowing the user to
|
|
click and drag with taps alone.
|
|
.TP 7
|
|
.BI "tap-and-drag-lock=" false
|
|
For touchpad devices with \fBenable-tap\fR and \fBtap-and-drag\fR enabled.
|
|
In the middle of a tap-and-drag, if the user releases the touchpad for less
|
|
than a certain number of milliseconds, then touches it again, the virtual mouse
|
|
button will remain pressed and the drag can continue.
|
|
.TP 7
|
|
.BI "disable-while-typing=" true
|
|
For devices that may be accidentally triggered while typing on the keyboard,
|
|
causing a disruption of the typing. Disables them while the keyboard is in
|
|
use.
|
|
.TP 7
|
|
.BI "middle-button-emulation=" false
|
|
For pointer devices with left and right buttons, but no middle button. When
|
|
enabled, a middle button event is emitted when the left and right buttons are
|
|
pressed simultaneously.
|
|
.TP 7
|
|
.BI "left-handed=" false
|
|
Configures the device for use by left-handed people. Exactly what this option
|
|
does depends on the device. For pointers with left and right buttons, the
|
|
buttons are swapped. On tablets, the tablet is logically turned upside down,
|
|
because it will be physically turned upside down.
|
|
.TP 7
|
|
.BI "rotation=" n
|
|
Changes the direction of the logical north, rotating it \fIn\fR degrees
|
|
clockwise away from the default orientation, where \fIn\fR is a whole
|
|
number between 0 and 359 inclusive. Needed for trackballs, mainly. Allows the
|
|
user to orient the trackball sideways, for example.
|
|
.TP 7
|
|
.BI "accel-profile=" "{flat,adaptive}"
|
|
Set the pointer acceleration profile. The pointer's screen speed is
|
|
proportional to the physical speed with a certain constant of proportionality.
|
|
Call that constant alpha. \fIflat\fR keeps alpha fixed. See \fBaccel-speed\fR.
|
|
\fIadaptive\fR causes alpha to increase with physical speed, giving the user
|
|
more control when the speed is slow, and more reach when the speed is high.
|
|
\fIadaptive\fR is the default.
|
|
.TP 7
|
|
.BI "accel-speed=" v
|
|
If \fBaccel-profile\fR is set to \fIflat\fR, it simply sets the value of alpha.
|
|
If \fBaccel-profile\fR is set to \fIadaptive\fR, the effect is more
|
|
complicated, but generally speaking, it will change the pointer's speed.
|
|
\fIv\fR is normalised and must lie in the range [-1, 1]. The exact mapping
|
|
between \fIv\fR and alpha is hardware-dependent, but higher values cause higher
|
|
cursor speeds.
|
|
.TP 7
|
|
.BI "natural-scroll=" false
|
|
Enables natural scrolling, mimicking the behaviour of touchscreen scrolling.
|
|
That is, if the wheel, finger, or fingers are moved down, the surface is
|
|
scrolled up instead of down, as if the finger, or fingers were in contact with
|
|
the surface being scrolled.
|
|
.TP 7
|
|
.BI "scroll-method=" {two-finger,edge,button,none}
|
|
Sets the scroll method. \fItwo-finger\fR scrolls with two fingers on a
|
|
touchpad. \fIedge\fR scrolls with one finger on the right edge of a touchpad.
|
|
\fIbutton\fR scrolls when the pointer is moved while a certain button is
|
|
pressed. See \fBscroll-button\fR. \fInone\fR disables scrolling altogether.
|
|
.TP 7
|
|
.BI "scroll-button=" {BTN_LEFT,BTN_RIGHT,BTN_MIDDLE,...}
|
|
For devices with \fBscroll-method\fR set to \fIbutton\fR. Specifies the
|
|
button that will trigger scrolling. See /usr/include/linux/input-event-codes.h
|
|
for the complete list of possible values.
|
|
.TP 7
|
|
.BI "touchscreen_calibrator=" true
|
|
Advertise the touchscreen calibrator interface to all clients. This is a
|
|
potential denial-of-service attack vector, so it should only be enabled on
|
|
trusted userspace. Boolean, defaults to
|
|
.BR false .
|
|
|
|
The interface is required for running touchscreen calibrator applications. It
|
|
provides the application raw touch events, bypassing the normal touch handling.
|
|
It also allows the application to upload a new calibration into the compositor.
|
|
|
|
Even though this option is listed in the libinput section, it does affect all
|
|
Weston configurations regardless of the used backend. If the backend does not
|
|
use libinput, the interface can still be advertised, but it will not list any
|
|
devices.
|
|
.TP 7
|
|
.BI "calibration_helper=" /bin/echo
|
|
An optional calibration helper program to permanently save a new touchscreen
|
|
calibration. String, defaults to unset.
|
|
|
|
The given program will be executed with seven arguments when a calibrator
|
|
application requests the server to take a new calibration matrix into use.
|
|
The program is executed synchronously and will therefore block Weston for its
|
|
duration. If the program exit status is non-zero, Weston will not apply the
|
|
new calibration. If the helper is unset or the program exit status is zero,
|
|
Weston will use the new calibration immediately.
|
|
|
|
The program is invoked as:
|
|
.PP
|
|
.RS 10

The DRM backend accepts different modes, along with an option of a modeline string.

.BI "scale=" factor
|
|
The scaling multiplier applied to the entire output, in support of high
|
|
resolution ("HiDPI" or "retina") displays, that roughly corresponds to the
|
|
pixel ratio of the display's physical resolution to the logical resolution.
|
|
Applications that do not support high resolution displays typically appear tiny
|
|
and unreadable. Weston will scale the output of such applications by this
|
|
multiplier, to make them readable. Applications that do support their own output
|
|
scaling can draw their content in high resolution, in which case they avoid
|
|
compositor scaling. Weston will not scale the output of such applications, and
|
|
they are not affected by this multiplier.

An integer, 1 by default, typically configured as 2 or higher when needed,

|
denoting the scaling multiplier for the output.

.BI "seat=" name
|
|
The logical seat name that this output should be associated with. If this
|
|
is set then the seat's input will be confined to the output that has the seat
|
|
set on it. The expectation is that this functionality will be used in a
|
|
multiheaded environment with a single compositor for multiple output and input
|
|
configurations. The default seat is called "default" and will always be
|
|
present. This seat can be constrained like any other.

.TP 7

|
.BI "allow_hdcp=" true
|
|
Allows HDCP support for this output. If set to true, HDCP can be tried for the
|
|
content-protection, provided by the backends, on this output. By
|
|
default, HDCP support is always allowed for an output. The
|
|
content-protection can actually be realized, only if the hardware
|
|
(source and sink) support HDCP, and the backend has the implementation
|
|
of content-protection protocol. Currently, HDCP is supported by drm-backend.
|

.TP 7

.BI "content-type=" content_type

A comma separated list of the IDs of applications to place on this output.

These IDs should match the application IDs as set with the xdg_shell.set_app_id
|
|
request. Currently, this option is supported by kiosk-shell.

.BI "eotf-mode=" sdr
|

Sets the EOTF mode on the output. This is used for choosing between standard

dynamic range (SDR) mode and the various high dynamic range (HDR) modes. The

|
display driver, the graphics card, and the video sink (monitor) need to support
|
|
the chosen mode, otherwise the result is undefined.

The mode can be one of the following strings:
