This commit removes the focused window monocle/maximized check when
trying to focus a container in a direction that requires the focus to
cross a monitor boundary.
Unfortunately, trying to remove the same check from the move command
results in undesired behaviour (the wrong window gets moved, the state
gets funny on both the origin and the destination monitor)
This commit introduces a lazy monitor cache that only gets populated
with a monitor has been disconnected, before the monitor is removed from
the state. If and when the same monitor is reconnected and identified by
its size on the virtual screen, the cached monitor state will be used to
repopulate layout options, avoiding a potentially expensive full
configuration reload.
re #275
This commit adds a new komorebic command, monitor-index-preference,
which allows the user to set the index preference within the VecDeque of
monitors based on the "size" of a display.
This works as the size Rect identifies a unique display on the greater
virtual screen and persists across display connections and
disconnections unless the user deliberately changes the positioning of
the display monitor on the virtual screen.
When a new monitor is added to the state, the monitor preferences will
be checked, and if a preference exists, the new monitor will be inserted
at that index, otherwise, it will be pushed to the back of the VecDeque.
resolve#275
This commit replaces all usages of MONITORINFO with MONITORINFOEX in
order to retrieve a name for each connected display device.
This display device name makes for easier deduping during monitor
reconciliation, so that matching display monitor names can simply have
their hmonitor id updated instead of trying to figure out which id
corresponds to which monitor by looking at the windows currently visible
on each.
fix#267
This commit adds listeners on two more events, WM_SETTINGCHANGE and
WM_DEVICECHANGE, in the hope of more reliably catching monitor
attachments and detachments based on info in an SO answer.
fix#267
This commit removes the previous polling strategy on ObjectCreate events
and uses a hidden window to listen to WM_DISPLAYCHANGE.
Unfortunately, as all monitors change HMONITOR values on monitor
attach/detach, even if the monitor remains attached, the only real
choice we have when a monitor which previously held windows is detached
is to read the entire monitor and workspace state again, as we do when
we initialise the window manager for the first time.
Since it's possible that the "wrong" monitor in the state has its
HMONITOR value updated, we also have to load the configuration again.
This commit deprecates WindowManagerEvent::MonitorPoll.
fix#267
This commit ensures that the generated AHK library for komorebic uses
RunWait instead of Run, as the latter is asynchronous and can result in
an unexpected order of calls when used in a komorebi.ahk configuration
file.
re #269
This commit adds SocketMessage::FocusWindow as a target to update the
border position on at the end of the command handler. There are some
occasions where the EVENT_SYSTEM_FOREGROUND notification isn't being
sent (on newer versions of Win11, I think), so we can't count on the
border being updated when that event is received by the event handler.
For the past few weeks since upgrading the windows-rs crate I've seen
sporadic failures when calling SetForegroundWindow which require a full
restart to get the wm working as expected again. Adding in a retry loop
here seems to help when the issue comes up for me on Windows 11.
This commit ensures that a response socket is opened before sending a
query request from komorebic to komorebi. Additionally, I have taken
this opportunity to ensure that all socket files are created in
DATA_DIR.
fix#218
This commit ensures that monocle containers are given priority when
handling WindowManagerEvent::FocusChange.
This is especially important when switching workspaces to ensure that
the keyboard input focus stays with the monocle container's focused
window when returning to a workspace with a monocle container activated.
fix#219
This commit ensures that when navigating away from and then back to a
workspace with a monocle window container, that the monocle window
container will be properly focused when navigating back, including
having the focus of the active window border.
fix#219
This commit ensures that the active window border has non-zero HWND
before attempting to either hide it or set the border position. This is
required as the border is only initialized when a komorebic command is
received, meaning that the default value of 0 will never change if a
user decides to use komorebi without the active window border.
Most notably this commit fixes an issue where users who did not have the
active window border enabled would not be able to move away from an
empty workspace using a komorebic command.
fix#217
This commit ensures that any calls to AttachThreadInput which are used
to allow the focusing or raising of a window are paired with a closing
call to detach the thread input.
Although undocumented, it seems that when attaching the input thread of
a window to an admin/sudo process, this prevents that window from
handling inputs from any unelevated processes (including regular
keyboard and mouse inputs), until the input thread is detached.
fix#86
This commit removes mstsc.exe from WSL2_UI_PROCESSES. Recent changes to
WSLg unfortunately mean that even with this exe being included in the
override list, WSLg windows once again no longer tile correctly. On top
of that, mstsc.exe is also used for traditional Windows RDP connections,
so leaving this in the override list results in ghost window tiles for
users connecting to other machines via RDP.
Users who wish to keep mstsc.exe included in WSL2_UI_PROCESSES are
welcome to maintain a fork of komorebi.
My official recommendation for users wishing to run Linux GUI
applications from WSL on Windows is to use VcXsrv, which is fully
compatible with komorebi, and generall just a very mature, stable, tried
and tested piece of software.
fix#216
This commit ensures that when there is only one container on the target
workspace in a cross-monitor move, meaning that there won't be one
swapped back, we only decrement the focused container index on the
origin workspace if there is a focused container at an index greater
than 0.
fix#209
This commit adds a TCP listener that can be optionally exposed on a port
provided by the user using the --tcp-port flag. If the flag is not
provided, the TCP listener will not be started.
Client state is tracked using the connecting address, and clients are
purged if they send unrecognised messages.
A JSON Schema of the SocketMessage enum can be exported via komorebic
and be used to generate type definitions in various programming
languages.
This commit also makes some improvements to the handling of 'komorebic
start'.
The previous backoff approach was not working as once the Windows API
denies access to the process for any call, no amount of retries with the
same process id will result in approval.
Therefore, 'komorebic start' now checks if the process has been started,
and if it hasn't (ie. it has errored out because of an access denied
error), it will continue to restart the process until all the komorebi
startup calls to the Windows API succeed.
resolve#176
This commit wraps calls to the Windows API which may intermittently fail
in backoff blocks, reducing the potential of early exits from errors
returned by the Windows API before the tiling has even started.
Hopefully this makes calls to 'komorebic start' more relible for use at
login time.
This commit reduces some of the jank when the active border window deals
with windows that have been floated by the wm.
- The border on a floated window is always on top of all other windows,
just like the floated window itself
- When a floated window is moved by the mouse, it retains its border
- When a floated window loses and then regains focus via mouse
interactions, it regains its border
Note that now border changes are handled afer the main match block in
process_event.rs, early returns should be avoided unless absolutely
necessary, as this will prevent the border state from being updated
until the next event is received.
This commit moves the border window drawing logic into the WNDPROC
callback and uses BeginPaint -> Rectangle -> Endpaint to draw a
rectangle around the outside of the window in a specific colour that is
not black, which is used as the transparency colour with
SetLayeredWindowAttributes.
All of this results in a non-filled border rect and a much nicer
experience for users who are using transparency or translucent effects
on their windows.
This commit also introduces an optional second active border colour when
the user is focused on a stack of windows. If this is not set, the
default colour for single windows will be used.
Finally, a bunch of small issues relating to the border window staying
drawn on the screen even when there are no active windows on a workspace
have been addressed.
resolve#201
This commit introduces a new komorebi.sample.ahk in the repository root,
as well as adding the latest generated versions of komorebic.lib.ahk and
komorebi.generated.ahk.
Pushing new users to use the AHK library by default will significantly
simplify the process of building a new configuration, and including the
application-specific configuration generated from the configuration
repository will result in a better first impression of komorebi where
more and more applications "just work".
This new sample is focused on setting a few sane configuration defaults,
and as few keybinds as possible, really just enough to allow the user to
switch focus and move windows around. This significantly reduces the
possibility of the first-time user accidentally triggering a command
that leaves them confused, frustrated and would probably end in them
killing the komorebi.exe proc from the task manager.
The new sample configuration will no longer be bundled with scoop
starting from the next release, which is also expected to introduce
support for installation via winget.
Instead, instructions have been added for users to download the latest
example configuration and generated libs from GitHub in the getting
started section.
resolve#62
These changes to the GitHub actions workflows will include an MSI
installer in the artifacts that are uploaded at the end of each
successful build, and also attach an MSI installer to a release when the
job runs on a tag that creates a new release version.
re #152
This commit enforces a check to ensure that the active-window-border
configuration is enabled before trying to redraw a border than has been
hidden by a drag or move event.
This commit ensures that active window border updates in the event
processing loop are skipped if the current workspace has tiling
disabled. Previously this check was not enforced so the border would
reappear on a workspace that had disabled tiling after new events had
been processed.
This commit ensures that when the workspace-tiling command is called to
disable tiling for a workspace, that the border is also disabled for the
duration that tiling is diabled. This was previously only implemented
for the toggle-tiling command.
This commit introduces a few changes to reduce border jank, especially
when switching workspaces:
- The border is hidden before the windows start to reorganize when a
workspace switching command is received instead of after
- Avoid unncessary window.focus() call when switching workspace
- Use WindowManager.focused_window() instead of the window received from
the WindowManagerEvent when updating or setting the active border
position as it more accurately matches user expectations when
switching back to a workspace to find the focused window being the one
that you left when you switched away
This commit ensures that failures to focus on the Settings and similar
windows on Windows 11 will allow execution to continue so that the
active window border location can be updated without exiting early from
the command handler with a propagated error.
This commit ensures that when a custom layout is loaded, either manually
or via a workspace layout rule trigger threshold being amtched, any
layout_flip property for the impacted workspace will be removed, to
allow for key bindings to work as expected on the custom layout.
This commit adds an optional active window border with a user-defined
colour. This is achieved by spawning a dedicated "border window" and
constantly placing it behind the focused window, or hiding it whenever
necessary.
Some constraints to note:
- The border will only be applied to windows managed by komorebi
- This means that if you temporarily float a window, it will lose the
active window border
- There are some issues where parts of the border will be broken by
applications like Zoom, even if Zoom is behind the currently focused
window
- You probably want to turn off window shadows globally in Advanced
System Settings -> Performance for the borders to have a consistent
colour all the way around the window
- There is some inevitable jank due to trying to reposition both the
focused window and the "border window" behind it simultaneously
- There are no borders for unfocused windows
resolve#182
This commit introduces a new flag to komorebi and komorebic,
--await-configuration, which when enabled, will stop the process from
processing window manager events and updating the layout until the
'komorebic complete-configuration' command has been sent.
This should typically be added at the end of a user's komorebi.ahk
configuration file if they decide to enable this feature.
resolve#190
This commit ensures that monocle containers and floating windows are
considered validate candidates for the 'toggle-maximize' command and are
handled accordingly if the command is called when they are in the
foreground.
fix#194
This commit ensures that monocle containers and maximized windows are
considered valid candidates for the 'toggle-float' command and are
handled accordingly if the command is called when they are in the
foreground.
fix#193
This commit improves Windows path resolution so that when people run the
ahk-asc command with "applications.yaml" as an argument, without having
".\" prepended, the command will still succeed as expected.
fix#192
This commit ensures that if a window maximized using the 'komorebic
toggle-maximize' is minimized using the UI, on the receipt of the
Minimize WindowManagerEvent, the window will be normalized with
SW_NORMAL before being removed from the window manager state.
This ensures that if the window is later managed again, the user will be
able to toggle-maximize normally again as expected.
This commit ensures that when a window has matched a float rule, the
managed override rule will only apply to that window if the override
identifier is of the same kind (exe, title, class) as the float rule
identifier.
This ensures that the wm isn't constantly trying to allow and disallow
certain windows such as Slack's hidden window, resulting in an infinite
show/hide and retile loop.
This commit fixes a bug with the startup check which tries to ensure
that there is only ever one instance of komorebi running at any given
time.
Previously, only one shim was being checked for, but if a user runs
'komorebic start' multiple times, multiple shims will be active, causing
the check to mistakenly pass.
The changes in this commit now account for N active shims.
This commit ensures that the final argument of the
'workspace-layout-rule' command, which takes a variant of the
DefaultLayout enum, is properly labelled with the #[arg_enum] tag so
that serialization and deserialization works as expected with other
commands that take a DefaultLayout enum variant as an arg.
fix#171
This commit ensures that manage rules have priority over float rules.
This is useful for applications such as Steam, where all windows
including pop-ups have the same class name.
The class name can be used with a float rule to ensure that all Steam
pop-up windows are ignored, and then the title "Steam" can be used with
a manage rule to ensure that the main Steam window does get managed.
fix#163
This commit provides two new commands, to set and toggle the behaviour
(swap, insert) when moving window containers across monitor boundaries.
MoveBehaviour::Swap has been selected as the default as this seems to be
the default on bspwm.
resolve#145
This commit ensures that when moving across a monitor boundary, the
origin window container will be swapped with the last focused window
container on the other side of the monitor boundary.
If there is no window container on the other side of the window
boundary, it will be treated as a move instead of a swap.
re #145
This commit ensures that when focusing across a monitor boundary, the
focus will go to the last focused window container on the focused
workspace on the other side of a given window boundary.
re #145
This commit introduces the ability to operate across monitor boundaries
with the 'move' and 'focus' commands.
When operating down or to the right, the target index of the monitor in
that direction will be 0. When operating up or to the left, the target
index will either be len() - 1 if focusing, or len() if moving.
re #145
This commit ensures that border overflow applications are correctly
identified as being moved instead of being resized when dragged to a new
position using the mouse.
fix#159
This commit introduces two new environment variables to override the exe
name that komorebi uses to verify that AutoHotKey is installed before
launching and reloading 'komorebi.ahk' configuration files.
resolve#147
This commit ensures that a custom layout that is set by a layout rule
will correctly have the width of the primary column increased or
decreased when resize-axis is called with Axis::Horizontal.
re #154
This commit allows the Window.focus() fn to continue execution if
AttachThreadInput fails, as there are valid situations in which this
might fail, but the focusing of the window may/should still succeed.
fix#156
This commit tweaks how float rule matching for titles and classes works.
Previously, they required an exact match to be triggered.
This change allows starts_with and ends_with matches on classes and
window titles to also trigger a float rule for applications that
dynamically change their window titles or window classes.
Exe matches are still required to be exact.
This commit ensures that what monitor reconciliation is triggered from a
MonitorPoll event, the focused monitor is only updated when the HWND
associated with the event is known not to be tied to a specific (in this
case, the primary) monitor.
This ensures that silent state updates do not occur and avoids
unexpected behaviour when performing operations relative to the
currently focused window on a non-primary display (focus, move etc.)
This commit adds a new command, 'unmanaged-window-operation-behaviour'
which allows the user to configure their desired behaviour in situations
when sending window container commands which operate on the focused
window container in the workspace state, but having an unmanaged window
as the foreground hwnd.
The default previously was previously Op (and this remains the default
with these new changes), but the user can now select NoOp, which will
return an error when the focused hwnd is unmanaged and not allow any
write operations to take place on the focused workspace state.
resolve#133
This commit ensures that the origin workspace will be updated after a
container is removed to be sent to a target workspace (specified, or
currently focused) on another monitor.
With this change in place, moving window containers to another monitor
should not result in a ghost container that remains until the next
retile on the origin workspace.
fix#132
@riverar pointed out on Discord that I had my if and else clauses here
mixed up. This commit reintroduces null value checks for HWNDs returned
from Windows API calls.
Previously, generated AHK did not surround with quotes inputs which
could contain spaces such as application titles. This commit ensures
that in any generated AHK code where an application id is passed to a
komorebic.exe command as input, that input will always be quoted.
This fixes bugs related to float rules, manage rules and other
application identification commands not being properly executed via
komorebic called from the generated AHK files when the app id contained
a space.
Small commit to temporarily handle a regression introduced by my changes
when upgrading from 0.34 to 0.35.
Checking for a 0 HWND value results in an Err being propagated in fns
like GetForegroundWindow, while the error message just reads "The
operation completed successfully. (os error 0)".
This behaviour was causing regressions in features such as window
floating which seems to be resolved by removing the 0 HWND check.
