It is now handled by the `wibox.container.border`. The current
implementation had many unhandled corner case and is less
flexible than the new API.
Some might argue deprecating the background from a background
container is... strange. This is true. However, keeing all
use case within the same codebase would make it too large.
The `gears.shape` support is incompatible with the border
widgets (which are used to implement the background images).
Rather than bloat the `background` container with another 1k lines,
a new container is added. The goal is to implement CSS-style slicing
for the background images. The container also allows to place
generic widgets on each sides and corners of the container.
The main use case for this container is to replace the old
`awful.titlebar` API with `awful.decoration`. That new module will
allow a central client widget to be surrounded by widgets rather than
have 4 separate drawing areas. The border container is designed to
make complex border+titlebar setup trivial.
This will be used soon by a nice CSS inspired image slicer
container/layout.
They have a limitation inherited from Cairo of only working on a
single axis. This isn't important for 99% of the use case.
* wibox.widget.slider: Add a handle cursor property
* wibox.widget.slider: Add a beautiful variable for handle_cursor
* wibox.widget.slider: Remove an unneeded or statement
* wibox.widget.slider: Move handle_cursor variable to the function it belongs in
The textbox API reflects the Pango layout API circa 2011, time to
bring this to 2022. This adds:
* indent
* justify
* line_spacing_factor
It doesn't add `spacing` because it doesn't seem to do anything.
It also doesn't add the `is_*` methods to know if the text wraps
or ellipsize. We could, but nobody asked for them. The line spacing
is a feature request from Posix on Discord.
The goal is to catch cases where the return value exists, but is
forgotten. There was a large enough number of them to turn this
into a real check. Initially, I just wanted to implement it to fix
the problems, then delete the code. But since this is so common, I
think it is worth the annoyance.
The constraint:set_width function listed ‘height’ as a required parameter; the constraint:set_height function listed ‘width’ as a required parameter. Swapped those around.
Also, fix the fitting logic so that the result width and height are fitted in the available space. Previously the result dimensions can be larger than the input, but cropped in e7a21947e6/lib/wibox/widget/base.lua (L547). But still it can cause problems e.g. when used inside wibox.container.place.
