New containers were previously attached directly to the workspace instead of to
the previously focused place in the workspace (for example a stacked con).
Fixes: #376
Use 'kill window' to kill a specific window (for example only one specific
popup), use 'kill client' to kill the whole application (or X11 connection to
be specific).
When a tabbed container had more than one child and at least the first one
supported WM_DELETE, i3 entered an endless loop when killing that tabbed
container. This was due to tree_close only sending WM_DELETE without actually
removing the child, while the loop in tree_close assumed that with every call
of tree_close one child would be removed.
Actually, commit 1c5adc6c35 commented out code
without ever fixing it. I think this was responsible for the 'workspace
switching sometimes does not work' bug. My observations:
Had it again today and analyzed a log of it. Looks like after unmapping the
windows on one workspace (in my case: chromium, eclipse, urxvt, focus on
eclipse) we get UnmapNotify events for chromium and eclipse, but then we get an
EnterNotify for the terminal (due to unmapping the other windows and therefore
mapping the terminal under the cursor), only afterwards the UnmapNotify
follows.
So, there are two things wrong with that:
• We handle EnterNotifys for unmapped windows
• Unmapping windows sometimes works in a sequence, sometimes the sequence gets
split. Not sure why (if unmapping can take longer for some windows or if our
syncing is wrong -- but i checked the latter briefly and it looks correct).
Maybe GrabServer helps?
• We don’t ignore EnterNotify events caused by UnmapNotifies. We used to, but
then there was a different problem and we decided to solve the EnterNotify
problem in another way, which actually never happened (commit
1c5adc6c35).
According to the Xlib Programming Manual section 10.7.2 [1], these events are
generated when keyboard grabs activate/deactivate, while we are only interested
in focus changes which are done by other programs independend from the
keyboard.
