If we closed a key window in response to events, we need to denote another
window as the new key window. This is easiest to do from an idle so that
we don't clobber notification pairs of "did resign"/"did become" key
window.
We have a sorted set of surfaces by display server stacking, so we can
take the first one we come across that is already mapped and re-show it
to become key/main.
There are cases we might want to consume a NSEvent without creating a
GdkEvent or passing it along to the NSApplication for processing. This
creates a new value we can use and check against to propagate that without
having to do out parameters at the slightly odd invalid pointer value for
a GdkEvent (similar to how MMAP_FAILED is done).
Previously, a single CVDisplayLink was used to drive updates for all
surfaces across all monitors. It used a 'best guess' rate which would
allow for updates across monitors of mixed rates. This is undesirable for
situations where you might have a 144hz monitor as it does not allow for
reaching up to that frame rate.
Instead, we want to use a per-monitor CVDisplayLink which will fire at the
rate of the monitor down to the level of updates we require. This commit
does just that.
When a surface crosses onto a new monitor, that monitor is used to drive
the GdkFrameClock.
Fixes#4732
We will eventually be needing additional feedback from the display server
which would be nice to keep away from the rest of GdkMacosDisplay for
cleanliness sake. Particularly for feedback from mission control and other
environment factors that requires private API for proper integration.
This gets the basic mechanics of the drop portion of DnD working on the
macOS backend. You can drag, for example, from TextEdit into GNOME
Text Editor when using the macOS backend.
Other content formats are supported, and match what is currently
supported by the clipboard backend as the implementation to read
from the pasteboard is shared.
Currently, we look up the GdkDrag for the new GdkDrop. However,
nothing is stashing the drag away for further lookup. More work is
needed on GdkMacosDrag for that to be doable.
This is fairly substantial rewrite of the GDK backend for quartz and
renamed to macOS to allow for a greenfield implementation.
Many things have come across from the quartz implementation fairly
intact such as the eventloop integration design and discovery of
event windows from the NSEvent.
However much has been changed to fit in with the new GDK design and
how removal of child GdkWindow have been completely eliminated.
Furthermore, the new GdkPopup allows for regular NSWindow to be used
to provide popovers unlike the previous implementation.
The object design more closely follows the ideal for a GDK backend.
Views have been broken out into subclasses so that we can support
multiple GSK renderer paths such as GL and Cairo (and Metal in the
future). However mixed mode GL and Cairo will not be supported. Currently
only the Cairo renderer has been implemented.
A new frame clock implementation using CVDisplayLink provides more
accurate information about when to draw drawing the next frame. Some
testing will need to be done here to understand the power implications
of this.
This implementation has also gained edge snapping for CSD windows. Some
work was also done to ensure that CSD windows have opaque regions
registered with the display server.
** This is still very much a work-in-progress **
Some outstanding work that needs to be done:
- Finish a GL context for macOS and alternate NSView for GL rendering
(possibly using speciailized CALayer for OpenGL).
- Input rework to ensure that we don't loose remapping of keys that was
dropped from GDK during GTK 4 development.
- Make sure input methods continue to work.
- Drag-n-Drop is still very much a work in progress
- High resolution input scrolling needs various work in GDK to land
first before we can plumb that to NSEvent.
- gtk/ has a number of things based on GDK_WINDOWING_QUARTZ that need
to be updated to use the macOS backend.
But this is good enough to start playing with and breaking things which
is what I'd like to see.
