Release 17.1

[tint2-nick87720z.git] / ChangeLog

2022-02-23 17.1
- Enhancements:
  - Added option "rounded_corners" to disable rounding for separate corners
  - Added option to use continuous executor process as command sink for its own action commands
  - "tput clear" command in executors is possible without "-T" option (TERM is set to better value than "dumb")
  - Enhanced API documentation comment style to look more like documentation right in code (resemble doxygen output)
  - tint2conf: spacing option for buttons and executors, enable negative spacing for task icon and text
  - Small optimizations
- Fixes:
  - Fixed build with the Ninja cmake generator (cmake `-GNinja` option)
  - Found few regressions, possibly introduced between versions 17.0.2 and 17.0.3
  - GTK2 was still listed among current dependencies in few places
  - snprintf sometimes could overwrite terminating null in fixed buffers, resulting to unpredictable possible crashes
  - Last possible artifacts in area / tooltip draw (try thick border lines with rounding)
  - Task icon placing did not use spacing in centered mode, resulting to half of spacing moved to padding
  - tint2conf
    - Colors had channel values decremented when saved to config and used wrong required precision
    - Background image in the editor looked different than on the panel
2022-02-10 17.0.3
- Enhancements:
  - Added command to refresh executors (issue #747) (Arash Rohani)
  - Tooltip: live update, remove truncation by hardcoded value, don't wrap multiline text
  - Never activate battery support without enabled battery applet
  - Color tinting: try to preserve perceived lightness
  - tint2conf: Don't auto-start theme editor with empty TINT2_CONFIG variable
  - tint2conf: More convenient editor switcher sidebar with independed scrolling
  - tint2conf: Colors, saved to config, use minimum required length (3, 6 or 12 hexdigits)
  - Various optimizations and little cleanup
  - Manual: Executor examples use 'stdbuf -oL' and continuous processes in more places
- Fixes:
  - Interpret negative "execp_continuous" value as false (0)
  - init_timer: Did not ensure resulting name null-terminated, introducing indirect bug (possible security issue)
  - Border radius was not confined by widget size, breaking shape in some cases (e.g. tray without icons)
  - Fixed output format for time in logs - could easily take form of 0:0:0s instead of expected 0:00:00s
  - Fixed subtle artifacts, resulting from incorrect border & background stiching
  - Applet size and content position with negative icon<->text distance
  - Fix parsing for color hexstrings with other format, than #FFFFFF (e.g. 1 or 4 hexdigits per channel)
  - tint2conf: Theme context menu did not follow right-clicked theme if it was not selected before
  - tint2conf: Delay opening theme context menu
  - tint2conf: Much faster editor start due to optimized themes loading (bug #792)
- Maintainance:
  - Adopted https://gitlab.com/o9000/tint2 after end-of-life announce

2017-12-30 16.1
- Fixes:
  - Fixed several use-after-free errors in the timer code
  - Merged patches and fixed other warnings on OpenBSD
  - Task, Button, Executor: add a bit of slack in the pango text layout,
    to avoid wrapping due to rounding errors

2017-12-20 16.0
- Fixes:
  - Taskbar: `taskbar_distribute_size = 1` now playes well with `task_align = center` and
    `task_align = right` (issue #688)
- Enhancements:
  - Added Spanish translation (contributed by Vicmz)
  - Executor: updated tooltip documentation (issue #676)
  - Systray: warn on duplicate config option systray_name_filter (issue #652)

  - Text elements compute their size correctly (issue #671)
  - Window order persists on panel restart (issue #615)

2017-09-08 15.1
- Fixes:
  - Fixed build on non-Linux and non-x86 systems

2017-09-02 15.0
- Fixes:
  - Clock, executors and other timers fire correctly after waking up from suspend
  - One-shot timers are restarted correctly from their own callbacks
  - Clock is refreshed with better accuracy (thanks @aaaz)
  - Panel: by popular demand, the old struts behavior with autohide has been restored (issue #619);
    if you encounter applications that interact poorly with it,
        you might have better luck with strut_policy = minimum,
        if that does not work, you will have to turn off autohide.
- Enhancements:
  - Panel:
    - _NET_WM_PID is set correctly, so now tint2 can be interacted with more easily from wmctrl and similar apps
  - Taskbar: new config option taskbar_hide_different_desktop
  - Battery:
    - New config option bat1_format and bat2_format
        - New config option battery_full_cmd
        - Better "Unknown" state handling
  - Executor:
    - Hide if output is empty
    - If no user tooltip is set, displays the script standard error as tooltip.
      Tooltip is multiline, can be cleared with the VT100 clear screen sequence, in shell: (>&2 echo -en "\033[2J").
      Long tooltips are truncated to 4096 characters.
  - Launcher:
    - Drag and drop now handles correctly text/uri-list
    - Support for Terminal=true
    - Support for %f and %F
- Configuration changes:
  - Removed primary_monitor_first as it was conflicting with taskbar behavior; use *_monitor = primary instead.
- Other:
  - Major code refactoring
- Dropping "0." from the version number and no longer using semver ("Breaking.Feature.Fix").
  - Tint2 will always strive to be backwards compatible with respect to the configuration format.
  - Very few configurations changes have been broken between 2010 (0.10) - 2017 (0.14);
    in all cases they were minor options that caused incorrect behavior,
    and the changes were described better by "Feature" or "Fix".
  - Practically all releases starting from 0.10 have been very stable,
    so there is no point in staying in "0." anymore.
  - But I don't want the project to get stuck in "1." forever.
  - The new versioning scheme is the following:
    - Version numbers will have the format "Feature.Fix", where:
      - "Feature" is increased when significant new features are added.
      - "Fix" is increased for bugfixes or minor changes.
    - 0.14.6 will be followed by 15.0.

  - Take into account border width when computing text height
  - Taskbar: Fix task icon size limits

2016-03-25 0.12.8
- Major changes (see details below):
  - Icon cache and lazy icon theme loading to improve performance in tint2 and tint2conf
  - Extra tint2rc themes are installed to /usr/share/tint2 and available in tint2conf
  - Tint2conf GUI improvements
- Config options with changed behavior:
  - The launcher now also allows launcher_item_app entries without a full path.
    In this case the .desktop file is searched in the standard application directories (issue #565).
  - If the panel size is given as a percentage and a non-zero margin is also specified,
    the size is now computed as a fraction of the available size (i.e. monitor size - margin).
    Before it was computed as a fraction of the monitor size first, then the margin was subtracted from the value, which
    was not intuitive (issue #559).
- Fixes:
  - Taskbar icons are now resized correctly for certain geometries (issue #560)
  - Fix get_version.sh so that it returns the correct version when .git is missing
  - Fix build on powerpc
  - Temporary files are now created in /tmp
  - The XDG paths are now used in the icon and application lookup in addition to the hardcoded defaults
  - Brigtness adjustments no longer distort colors
  - Fixed race in sorting systray icons by name
  - Fixed desktop entry parsing (issue #570)
  - tint2conf:
    - Applications are now sorted correctly
    - Avoid duplicate icon themes due to symlinks
    - Avoid loading desktop files marked as NoDisplay
- Enhancements:
  - Launcher icon paths are now cached, which greatly improves loading time for tint2 and tint2conf.
    The correct icon should be found even if you change the icon theme or install a new theme.
    If this is not the case, delete the file ~/.cache/tint2/icon.cache, restart tint2 and please file a bug report
    indicating the application name and the icon theme name.
  - Fallback icon themes are loaded lazily to speed up tint2 and tint2conf startup
  - A better Name and GenericName is used in the tint2 and tint2conf .desktop files
  - tint2conf:
    - Allows selection of themes from /usr/share
    - Menu reorganization (thanks @Vladimir-csp for feedback)
    - Icon themes are now sorted in the displayed list
    - Updated ru translation (thanks @Vladimir-csp)

2016-01-29 0.12.7
- Fixes:
  - Fix crash caused by race when reading inconsistent values for _NET_CURRENT_DESKTOP and _NET_NUMBER_OF_DESKTOPS
  - Fix regression (all desktop tasks not working)
  - Fix small memory leak in launcher

2016-01-25 0.12.6
- Fixes:
  - Fix crash on 32-bit systems (issue #546)
  - Fix compilation on Slackware (issue #547)
  - Terminal color reset code moved to the same line to prevent interference with logging (issue #545)
- Enhancements:
  - Executor now sends click coordinates via environment variables (issue #544)

2016-01-24 0.12.5
- Fixes:
  - Fix rendering corruption triggered occasionally when the compositor is disabled (regression in 0.12.4)

2016-01-23 0.12.4
- Enhancements:
  - Support for NETWM viewports (as used by Compiz or Unity) (issue #94)
  - The default desktop font (Gtk/FontName from XSettings) is used when a font is not specified in the config file
  - When no fonts are specified in the config, tint2 picks up the default font of the desktop environment via XSettings
  - Tint2 is now able to dump a stack trace to stderr and ~/.tint2-crash.log in case of a crash.
    If the cmake flag ENABLE_BACKTRACE is set, stack traces are dumped on X11 I/O errors.
    If the cmake flag ENABLE_BACKTRACE_ON_SIGNAL is set, stack traces are dumped also on signals such as SIGSEGV.
    Both ENABLE_BACKTRACE and ENABLE_BACKTRACE_ON_SIGNAL are disabled by default.
  - Pixmaps are cached instead of always redrawn between different button states when mouse effects are enabled,
    to improve performance
  - Tooltips are no longer very wide
  - Default config looks nicer
- New config options:
  - Executor: new plugin that displays the output of a command in the panel (issue #161)
  - New taskbar sort order options: least-recently-used (lru), most-recently-used (mru) (issue #532)
  - Place the primary monitor before all the other monitors (primary_monitor_first, issue #538)
  - taskbar_always_show_all_desktop_tasks (issue #279)
- Config options with changed behavior:
  - Mouse effects are enabled by default
- Fixes:
  - Battery changes visibility correctly (issue #531)
  - Fixed rendering corruption (issue #543)
  - Reverted the window flags back to the value in 0.11 to make sure the window manager detects that tint2 is a panel
    (affected kwin, bspwm; fixes issue #537, breaks issue #455)
  - Fixed a rare crash caused by the system tray code
  - The system tray now reorders icons correctly when the icon name changes and the sorting order is configured as
    ascending or descending (affected GTK icons, which sometimes set their name late after creating the icon)
  - Tint2conf no longer copies sample themes to ~/.config
- New optional dependencies:
  - libexecinfo on the *BSDs (only if the cmake flag ENABLE_BACKTRACE is set)

2015-11-12 0.12.3
- Enhancements:
  - Battery: Multiple batteries are now supported under Linux (issue #139;
    thanks to Sebastian Reichel)
  - Battery: The time left for charging/discharging the battery is now estimated
    when the system is not able to read current data from sensors (issue #522;
    thanks to Sebastian Reichel)
  - Battery: Reacts to plug/unplug events (thanks to Sebastian Reichel)
  - tint2conf: Backgrounds now have a text label showing which panel component
    uses them, to make them easier to identify; the label is saved as a comment
    in the config file (issue #521)
- New config options:
  - Mouse over effects (mouse_effects, background_color_hover, border_color_hover)
  - Launcher icon background (launcher_icon_background_id)

  - tint2conf: Fix read of panel_monitor (issue #520)
  - Fix command line argument processing (issue #516)
  - Fix battery option parsing

2015-08-01 0.12.1

  - Panel:
        - Do not use nested event loops (related: issue #509)
  - System tray:
        - Set _NET_SYSTEM_TRAY_ICON_SIZE and _NET_SYSTEM_TRAY_PADDING
        - Throttle repeated resizes (workaround for issue #509)
  - Taskbar:
        - Use consistent visibility for sticky (all desktop) windows (related: issue #279)
        - Compute monitor correctly for windows when Openbox animations are enabled (issue #511)
  - tint2conf:
        - Bad read of option panel_margin
- New config options:
  - Battery mouse actions and clock middle click and wheel actions (thanks to Jeff Blake)

2015-07-12 0.12
- Note: the changes listed here are based on the previous release tint2 0.11, however some distributions (e.g. Debian)
  offered packages using newer commits and/or patches; thus from the user's perspective some of these features are
  already present. They are marked with '(already released by distros)'.
- Major changes:
  - Panel:
  - Checks if a compositor is launched during the first 30 seconds after startup and if found, restarts the panel with
    transparency enabled.
  - Launcher:
    - The launcher is now considered stable
    - Enhancement: SVG icon support
    - Enhancement: more thorough search for icons
  - Configuration GUI: tint2conf
    - Experimental, testing/feedback needed
  - Icons (system tray, task buttons, launcher):
    - Changed rendering method to fix icon corruptions (please report any problems)
  - System tray:
    - Icon rendering is faster
    - Several kinds of graphical corruptions have been fixed
    - Added workaround for misbehaving applications leaving empty tray icons
  - Many bugfixes
- New config options (see https://gitlab.com/o9000/tint2/wikis/Configure):
  - Panel:
    - panel_window_name
    - panel_items (already released by distros)
    - disable_transparency
  - Taskbar:
    - taskbar_distribute_size
    - taskbar_hide_different_monitor
    - taskbar_hide_inactive_tasks
    - taskbar_sort_order
    - taskbar_name (already released by distros)
    - task_align (already released by distros)
  - Launcher:
    - launcher* (already released by distros)
    - launcher_apps_dir (previously patched in by some distros)
    - startup_notifications
    - launcher_icon_theme_override
  - System tray:
    - systray_monitor
  - Freespace (already released by distros)
- Config options with changed behavior:
  - Panel:
    - panel_dock: previously, 'panel_dock = 1' was actually not placing the panel into the dock. This option now
      functions correctly. Due to the fact that OpenBox forcefully draws a border around dock windows, you might want to
      set it to zero (or change the border color/style to match tint2). If you set it to zero, make sure you do not have
      reserved space at the edge of the screen in the OpenBox config.
      Reason for change: issues 257, 394, 461, 465, 481.
    - panel_layer: previously, 'panel_layer = normal' was not functioning correctly. Now it does (it requires panel_dock = 0).
      Note that in this case some compositors will draw shadows of other windows behind tint2. This can be avoided in compton
      using the option shadow-exclude-reg = "x35+0-0" where 35 should be replaced with the size of the panel.
    - font_shadow: shadows are thicker and softer, and are now applied to all text elements, not just the taskbar.
      Reason for change: legibility improved for transparent panels.
  - Launcher:
    - launcher_item_app: now it expands leading ~ to the path to the user's home directory.
- Known issues:
  - tint2 might close unexpectedly and/or cause X to freeze on certain ATI graphics cards.
    Workaround: set 'disable_transparency = 1' in the config.
    Reference: https://gitlab.com/o9000/tint2/issues/497
- Project hosting:
  - Migrated from https://code.google.com/p/tint2 to https://gitlab.com/o9000/tint2 and switched from svn to git
- Bugfixes:
  - task switching from tint2 using the mouse wheel (mouse_scroll_up = prev_task and mouse_scroll_down = next_task) with
    multiple desktops and taskbar_mode = multi_desktop when hovering over the first/last window in the taskbar was broken;
    also when a window is set to appear on all desktops;
  - the launcher was not loading an icon if the icon theme was not providing it in a size close to the value of launcher_icon_size;
  - the launcher was not loading an icon if the extension was incorrect (e.g. file contents were PNG but the file name
    had extension SVG);
  - some launcher icons (PNG files saved with an indexed colormap and alpha mask) were sometimes rendered with white instead of
    transparency;
  - icons looked washed out when the panel was very transparent;
  - the panel border was rendered in the background of every systray icon; sometimes systray icons were rendered in the
    background of other icons;
  - a crash caused by a change that prevents Google Chrome (and possibly other misbehaving applications) from leaving a large
    number of empty icons in the system tray;
  - a crash caused by the system tray code on computers with ATI cards;
  - the panel window had a shadow;
  - some ATI drivers return an extra monitor with size zero which should be ignored when using panel_monitor = all;
  - the battery applet was sometimes working incorrectly with certain laptop models (the battery applet stopped updating after
    suspend with the battery unplugged);
  - crashed caused by incomplete or malformed config files;
  - with the fvwm window manager, the window title was sometimes not displayed correctly if it changed right after an
    application was started;
  - seconds were not updating in the clock;
  - tint2 hang triggered when an application started from the launcher was closed and startup notifications were enabled;
  - tint2 may fail to process X events for a few seconds when a new icon is added to the system tray;
  - the code that loads SVG icons was using a lot of memory;
  - fixed occasional race at startup in detecting screen resolution changes;
  - modified timer code to prevent some rare double-frees or duplicate timers.

- fixed issue 110 and issue 107

2009-06-25
- improve user's message when compiled with --disable-battery
- replace 'task_width = width' by 'task_maximum_size = width height'

2009-06-24
- vertical panel done
  user's parameters :
  1) add 'vertical' to panel_position (panel_position = center left vertical)
  2) use 'task_width' to define the task height (task_width = 30)
  3) adjust paddingy on task and systray wiil define the size of icons
  all others parameters are automatically converted by tint2
  (x padding become y padding, width become height ...)
