We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
with WindowInput{Preempted,Restored} Events and allow Widgets to save
the state of their focus preemption. As of now, only Popups will
preempt input and trigger these events.
LibWeb's Window object will need to know the OS-level position and size
of the GUI::Window for e.g. screenX, screenY, outerWidth, outerHeight.
It will also need to know about changes to that data.
Previously Menus set themselves as active input solely to make
sure CaptureInput modals would close, but this is a functional
half-truth. Menus don't actually use the active input role; they
preempt normal Windows during event handling instead.
Now the active input window is notified on preemption and Menus
can remain outside the active input concept. This lets us make
more granular choices about modal behavior. For now, the only
thing clients care about is menu preemption on popup.
Fixes windows which close on changes to active input closing
on their own context menus.
This patch allows to insert "%uid" in `IPC_CLIENT_CONNECTION`
declaration and in SystemServer's ini files. This pattern is replaced
then replaced by the UID of the owner of the service. It opens a path
for seamlessly managed, per-user portal.
SystemEffects are sent to the WindowManager through
set_system_effects() and broadcast to Desktop clients with
update_system_effects(). WindowManager is reponsible for saving,
loading and rebroadcasting effects from WindowServer.ini on
config changes.
Previously we would wait for a separate message confirming that a
wallpaper got set instead of just calling a synchronous api.
I'm guessing that this was a limitation of the IPC system when
WindowServer got ported to using it.
This patch removes the SetWallpaperFinished message and updates the
set_wallpaper api to synchronously return a success boolean.
Previously, GUI::Window::is_maximized() had to make a synchronous IPC
request to WindowServer in order to find out if the window was indeed
maximized.
This patch removes the need for synchronous IPC by instead pushing the
maximization state to clients when it changes.
The motivation for this change was that GUI::Statusbar was checking
if the containing window was maximized in its resize_event(), causing
all windows with a statusbar to block on sync IPC *during* resize.
Browser would typically block for ~15 milliseconds here every time
on my machine, continuously during live resize.
This is useful, for instance, in games in which you can switch held
items using the scroll wheel. In order to implement this, they
previously would have to either add a hard-coded division by 4, or look
up your mouse settings to adjust correctly.
This commit adds an MouseEvent.wheel_raw_delta_x() and
MouseEvent.wheel_raw_delta_y().
