Traditionally, the way painting was done in GTK+ was with the
"expose-event" handler, where you'd use GDK methods to do drawing on
your surface. In GTK+ 2.24, we added cairo support with gdk_cairo_create,
so you could paint your graphics with cairo.
Since then, we've added client-side windows, double buffering, the paint
clock, and various other enhancements, and the modern way to do drawing
is to connect to the "draw" signal on GtkWidget, which hands you a
cairo_t. To do double-buffering, the cairo_t we hand you is actually on
a secret surface, not the actual backing store of the window, and when
the draw handler completes we blit it into the main backing store
atomically.
The code to do this is with the APIs gdk_window_begin_paint_region,
which creates the temporary surface, and gdk_window_end_paint which
blits it back into the backing store. GTK+'s implementation of the
"draw" signal uses these APIs.
We've always sort-of supported people calling gdk_cairo_create
"outside" of a begin_paint / end_paint like old times, but then you're
not getting the benefit of double-buffering, and it's harder for GDK to
optimize.
Additionally, newer backends like Mir and Wayland can't actually support
this model, since they're based on double-buffering and swapping buffers
at various points in time. If we hand you a random cairo_t, we have no
idea when is a good time to swap.
Remove support for this.
This is technically a GDK API break: a warning is added in cases where
gdk_cairo_create is called outside of a paint cycle, and the returned
surface is a dummy that won't ever be composited back onto the main
surface. Testing with complex applications like Ardour didn't produce
any warnings.
This avoids a bunch of policy problems with deciding how to lay
out the window menu under different WMs.
For now, we use the special event _GTK_SHOW_WINDOW_MENU, but we
hope to have this standardized in wm-spec quite soon, as KDE wants
it as well.
It seems that some backends implemented get_root_origin wrong
and returned the client window coordinates, not the frame window
coordinates. Since it's possible to implement generically for all
windows, let's do that instead of having a separate impl vfunc.
And the counterpart to unmaximize when dragging a maximized window, if
touch devices aren't going to use EWMH moveresize, having this one at least
makes things feel a bit less awkward.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=709914
Sadly, EWMH moveresize mechanism can't work with touch devices for two
reasons:
1) As a mutter implementation detail, the device is queried in order
to check whether the dragging button is still pressed. Touch devices
won't report the button 1 being pressed through pointer emulation.
2) Even bypassing that check, on X11 touch events are selected prior
to sequences being started, either through XISelectEvents or
XIGrabTouchBegin, no late registering through active grabs is allowed,
as WMs do on reaction to EWMH moveresize messages.
So for the time being, make touch devices fallback on emulated window
dragging, which at least allows for moving windows.

We have a hack in the XSETTINGS code to substitute gtk-xft-dpi
with gdk-unscaled-dpi unless the screen has a fixed window scale,
in which case we just use gtk-xft-dpi.
But if the screen is changed to have a fixed window scale, then
the substituted value of gdk-unscaled-dpi will stick around until
the next (coincidental) change to XSETTINGS. To fix this, force
an immediate reread of the XSETTINGS property when
gdk_x11_display_set_window_scale() is used.

This setting will let us keep traditional appearance

The EWMH defines _NET_WM_MOVERESIZE_SIZE_KEYBOARD and

Applications need a way to fix or adapt the decoration layout,
for situations like split header bars. Setting the layout from
the theme with a style property did not offer a good way to do
this, and the ::show-close-button property does not provide
fine-grained control.
To improve the situation, move the layout string to a property of
GtkHeaderBar which is backed by a setting. This allows platforms to
set a default button layout independent of the theme, while applications
can override the default.
The style GtkWindow style property is now deprecated and ignored.
And deprecate the X11-specific version of it.
We call this new API _set_shadow_width() and not _set_frame_extents()
because we already have a gdk_window_get_frame_extents() with a
different meaning and different type of value.

The focus handling code is shared between core and XI2 implementations,
so just handle the extra XI2 types for passive grabs. Those must be dealt
with in the same way than active grabs. Focus events with this crossing
mode could happen currently through the XIGrabFocusIn passive grab.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=719762
This fixes potential assertions if a GTK+ app gets to receive
a XINotifyPassiveGrab/Ungrab pointer crossing event, currently
triggerable by XIGrabEnter passive grabs.

This is so we always have the latest information given by XRandR (or other), and not
rely on Core protocol information that might not have been updated yet.
This is specially visible when a monitor is connected (less frequent) or disconnected
(much more frequent), callbacks on GdkScreen::monitors-changed that call
gdk_screen_get_width/height() could get the screen size previous to the monitor
rearrangement.
So in order to fix this, keep track of the latest monitors information, and calculate
the bounding box in order to know the screen size.

Scroll valuators were being just appended again and again, leading
to 1) a growing memory issue anytime a device changed 2) the first
scroll valuators to stay permanent on the application lifetime, as
the first stored valuators would always match.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705203
Passive grabs may take pointer focus out of the application, even though
the pointer didn't leave the window, but those events still trigger resetting
of the scroll axes. This is most visible with compiz, and possibly other
reparenting WMs, where passive grabs happen on the WM-managed window that
is a parent of the application toplevel.
As it is not possible to have scrolling happening on the timespan a passive
grab takes action, it is entirely safe for GTK+ to assume none happened if
it gets a crossing event of that nature.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=699574#c33
This information will be useful in case someone stumbles on a situation
similar to https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=699574, so we can
figure out where do the crossing events come from or go to easily.
It's been reported in several applications that scrolling feels jerky
since commit cc7b3985b3.
Investigation reported that the combination of passive 4-7 button grabs
on the toplevel and the presence of native subwindows might trigger
too often crossing events from the child window to the toplevel and
back as scroll "buttons" trigger the passive grab. Those crossing events
would reset the scroll valuators rendering scrolling from jerky on
touchpads (where there's intermediate smooth events between the emulated
button ones) to ineffective on regular mouse wheels (where the crossing
event would reset the valuators right before the single smooth scroll
event we get is delivered)
So, only reset scroll valuators when the pointer enters the toplevel
(we only care about this when the pointer is on the window after it's
been possibly scrolling somewhere else), and it doesn't come from an
inferior.
The situations where this happened varied though, the native subwindow
could be one created explicitly by the application, or created indirectly
through gdk_window_ensure_native(). The latter was mainly the case for
evolution (through gtk_selection_set_owner()) and any GtkScrolledWindow
under the oxygen-gtk3 theme (through gdk_window_set_composited())

Add a GtkSetting for whether the desktop shell is showing the desktop

If a motion event handler (or other handler running from the flush-events
phase of the frame clock) recursed the main loop then flushing wouldn't
complete until after the recursed main loop returned, and various aspects
of the state would get out of sync.
To fix this, change flushing of the event queue to simply mark events as
ready to flush, and let normal event delivery handle the rest.

We want a surface so we can properly represent the scale factor for it.
All backends are converted to use surfaces and we reimplement the
backwards compat code in the generic code.
Xsun is no longer shipped to customers, and Oracle/Sun's Xorg distribution
uses "Sun Microsystems" as the vendor name, so this hack is incorrect in
the more common recent cases.
Plug windows weren't redrawing properly because the embedded
window was expecting to get messages for each frame from the
compositor, but the compositor doesn't know about embedded
windows. Simply disable frame sync for GtkPlug's GdkWindow -
extending XEMBED to handle frame sync isn't interesting
at this point.
A new API gdk_x11_window_set_frame_sync_enabled() is added
to allow this to be done.

We've long had double precision mouse coordinates on wayland (e.g.
when rotating a window) but with the new scaling we even have it on
X (and, its also in Xinput2), so convert all the internal mouse/device
position getters to use doubles and add new accessors for the
public APIs that take doubles instead of ints.
This lets use use a scaled Xft/DPI for old apps while not
blowing up the size of scaled windows. Only apps supporting
Gdk/WindowScaleFactor should supprt Gdk/UnscaledDPI.
If you set GDK_SCALE=2 in the environment then all windows will be
scaled by 2. Its not an ideal solution as it doesn't handle
multi-monitors at different scales, and only affects gtk apps.
But it is a good starting points and will help a lot on HiDPI
laptops.

Change the visibility handling to be the same way we do it in
GLib now. We pass -fvisibility=hidden to gcc and decorate public

This commit just does this for GDK, GTK+ will follow later.
Move it from GdkDisplayManagerX11.init to GdkDisplay.class_init.
This shouldn't cause any problems, but who knows, so keep this patch
small.
Reason for this is the unification of display managers.
This makes Wayland and X11 no longer call into XKB and libX11 for these
functions but use GDK's own copy of these functions, just like the
win32, quartz and broadway backends.
This is another step towards making GdkDisplayManager backend-agnostic.
Most of the backends profit from this as their atom implementations
where generic anyway - x11 needed that to allow multiple X displays and
broadway, quartz and wayland don't have the concept of displays.
The X11 backend still did things, so I only #if 0'd some code but did
not actually update anything.
On crossing events resulting from moving windows (eg. workspace switch),

The macros we had for checking for toplevel windows were passing

to crash.
* remove gdk_frame_clock_get_frame_time_val(); a convenience
function that would rarely be used.

have a current use case.
* Make gdk_frame_clock_freeze/thaw() private: they are only

* Remove gdk_frame_clock_get_last_complete(). Another convenience

gdk_frame_clock_get_start() => gdk_frame_clock_get_history_start()
gdk_frame_clocK_get_current_frame_timings() => gdk_frame_clock_get_timings()
Since we're not exporting the ability to create your own frame
clock for now, remove the setters for GdkFrameTimings fields.
Also remove all setters and getters for fields that are more
about implementation than about quantities that are meaningful
to the applcation and just access the fields directly within
GDK.
Now that GdkFrameClock is a class, not interface, there's no real advantage
to splitting the frame history into an aggregate object, so directly
merge it into GdkFrameClock.
Instead of making the frame clock a settable property of a window, make
toplevel windows inherently have a frame clock when created (getting
rid of the default frame clock.) We need to create or destroy frame
clocks when reparenting a window to be a toplevel, or to not be a
toplevel, but otherwise the frame clock for a window is immutable.
If we get a focus event for a X window we don't recognize, just
ignore it and avoid a g-critical when
_gdk_device_manager_core_handle_focus() is called with a NULL window.
Deprecate gdk_window_enable_synchronized_configure() and
gdk_window_configure_done() and make them no-ops. Implement the
handling of _NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST in terms of the frame cycle -
we know that all processing will be finished in the next frame
cycle after the ConfigureNotify is received.
For an operation like synchronizing audio to video playback, we need to
be able to predict the time that a frame will be presented. The details
of this depend on the windowing system, so make the backend predict
a presentation time for ::begin-frame and set it on the GdkFrameTimings.
The timing algorithm of GdkFrameClockIdle is adjusted to give predictable
presentation times for frames that are not throttled by the windowing
system.
Helper functions:
gdk_frame_clock_get_current_frame_timings()
gdk_frame_clock_get_refresh_info()
are added for operations that would otherwise be needed multiple times
in different locations.

We want the compositor to do different things for frames where
"slept before" is TRUE. Communicate to the compositor that
frame is a no-delay frame (slept_before=FALSE) by ending the frame
by increasing the counter value by 1, and that the frame is a
normal frame (slept_before=TRUE) by increasing the counter value
by 3.

In order to be able to track statistics about how well we are drawing,
and in order to be able to do sophisticated things with frame timing
like predicting per-frame latencies and synchronizing audio with video,
we need to be able to track exactly when previous frames were drawn
to the screen.
Information about each frame is stored in a new GdkFrameTimings object.
A new GdkFrameHistory object is added which keeps a queue of recent
GdkFrameTimings (this is added to avoid further complicating the
implementation of GdkFrameClock.)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
Instead of communicating the start of a frame to the window manager
as soon as we begin a frame, start a frame only when we know we've
actually created damage to the contents of a window.
(This uses cairo_set_mime_data() as a notification mechanism - a
clever suggestion from Uli Schlachter.)
The advantage of this is that we aren't forcing the compositor to
do a frame cycle and send _NET_WM_FRAME_DRAWN - depending on how the
compositor is structured that might either cause it to do extra
work or it might send _NET_WM_FRAME_DRAWN early and upset frame
timing.

Unqueuing events from the windowing system when paused could result
in weird reordering if event filters resulted in application-visible

event handling is paused.

By starting with an odd frame counter value, we make the mapping
and initial paint of the window an atomic operation, avoiding
any visual artifacts from an unpainted window.
Possible improvement: start the frame when doing gdk_window_show(),
so that the same improvement occurs for windows that were previously
shown and are being mapped again.

When a window is unmapped, freeze its frame clock. This avoids doing
unnecessary work, but also means that we won't block waiting for
_NET_WM_FRAME_DRAWN messages that will never be received since the

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
As part of the extended _NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST_COUNTER protocol,
we get a _NET_WM_FRAME_DRAWN message for each frame we draw. Use this
to synchronize the updates we are doing with the compositing manager's
drawing, and ultimately with with display refresh.
We now set the sync request counters on all windows, including
override-redirect windows, since it is also useful to do synchronized,
atomic updates for such windows.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
By exporting two XSync counters on a toplevel window, we subscribe
to an extended form of the _NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST_COUNTER protocol,
where the window manager can initiate an atomic frame, as previously,
but the application can also do so by incrementing the new counter to
an odd value, and then to an even value to finish the frame.

We may receive events because SubstructureNotifyMask has been selected
for the root window. (Most likely, this would occur because GTK+
is being used inside a window manager like Metacity or Mutter.)
This can confuse various types of internal accounting, so detect

purposes. We still need to generate GDK events for these cases
because you can select for substructure events with
GDK_SUBSTRUCTURE_MASK.

Since XIQueryVersion, the bad API that it is, enforces the version from
the first client that requests it, for clients to be able to use the new

new features.

The X server should fill in the minor version that it supports in the
case where it only supports the older version, so we can safely always
pass a higher version number than is potentially supported by the

libXi was designed to be stable in the case where it doesn't recognize
requests or events/replies, so this should still work in a case where
we have new versions of the X server, and GTK+, but an old version of
libXi, at least for however well that setup should work.

By calling XSync in _gdk_x11_display_after_process_all_updates we

After my recent fix for this, nautilus was still having problems
telling keeping F10 and Shift-F10 apart. With this change, we are
treating levels with the same symbol like inactive levels, ignoring
them entirely.
A change in xkeyboard-config 2.4.1 made it so that function keys
now have a shift level which has the same symbol, but 'eats' the
shift modifier. This would ordinarily make it impossible for us
to discriminate between these key combinations.
This commit tries harder to discriminate in 2 ways:
- XKB has a mechanism to tell us when a modifier should not be
consumed even though it was used in determining the level.
We now respect such 'preserved' modifiers. This does not fix
the Shift-F10 vs F10 problem yet, since xkeyboard-config does
not currently mark Shift as preserved for function keys.
- Don't consume modifiers that do not change the symbol. For
the function keys, the symbol on the shift level is the same
as the base level, so we don't consider Shift consumed.

This was showing up when using a combo box in list mode. After popping
up the list, the keyboard grab appeared stuck. What was stuck here is
only the client-side grab, since we forgot to clean up our grabs
when receiving an UnmapNotify.
This bug was introduced in 1c97003664.
GtkPlug directly handles X KeyPress/Release events, instead of using
translation in GDK (which expects XI2 events for XI2). When this
was done, the handling of the group was stubbed out and never replaced.

so we can fill out the fields correctly.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=675167
Since the event will be ignored anyway after it's translated (slave
devices are disabled), don't let it run in the smooth scroll code path,
as it will burn our caches for the actual event we're interested in.

_gdk_x11_moveresize_configure_done() isn't called for wmspec
moves/resizes so we don't have a way to notice when a wmspec
move/resize ends and consequently untrigger the sending of
_NET_WM_MOVERESIZE_CANCEL which results in this message always being
sent on the next button release event. In that case we are marking
that event as handled so it isn't processed further which breaks
button press/release event handling in several widgets.
To fix this we simply allow the normal event handling machinery to run
after sending the _NET_WM_MOVERESIZE_CANCEL message.

The code for calculating the per-monitor workarea was ignoring
the fact that the EWMH workarea property can only handle rectangular

We want to avoid handling focus events for the private focus window,
otherwise the keyboard grab taken by for example buttons will cause a
spurious FOCUS_OUT/FOCUS_IN on the toplevel.

This patch reapplies db4a6040af which was

XI2 provides us with an increment for each scroll valuator,
and by dividing the delta by the increment, we obtain normalized
values in some abstract 'scroll unit'.
For mouse wheels, the evdev driver reports an increment of -1,
so doing this division fixes the inverted scrolling with wheels
that we've seen recently.
If the Window Manager supports the _NET_WM_STATE_HIDDEN, we use it to use
the _NET_WM_STATE protocol when de-iconifying windows (iconification is
unchanged, via XIconifyWindow). Additionally, we no longer interpret all
UnmapNotify events for our window as the result of iconification.

reporting the different scrolling axes as valuators.
Any change in those will be reported as GdkEventScroll
events with delta_x/y information.
the older kind of scroll events is still handled, and
emulated in devices able to provide smooth scrolling,
setting _gdk_event_set_pointer_emulated() in that case.
