126 <description summary="child surface positioner">
127 The xdg_positioner provides a collection of rules for the placement of a
128 child surface relative to a parent surface. Rules can be defined to ensure
129 the child surface remains within the visible area's borders, and to
130 specify how the child surface changes its position, such as sliding along
131 an axis, or flipping around a rectangle. These positioner-created rules are
132 constrained by the requirement that a child surface must intersect with or
133 be at least partially adjacent to its parent surface.
134
135 See the various requests for details about possible rules.
136
137 At the time of the request, the compositor makes a copy of the rules
138 specified by the xdg_positioner. Thus, after the request is complete the
139 xdg_positioner object can be destroyed or reused; further changes to the
140 object will have no effect on previous usages.
141
142 For an xdg_positioner object to be considered complete, it must have a
143 non-zero size set by set_size, and a non-zero anchor rectangle set by

411 <description summary="desktop user interface surface base interface">
412 An interface that may be implemented by a wl_surface, for
413 implementations that provide a desktop-style user interface.
414
415 It provides a base set of functionality required to construct user
416 interface elements requiring management by the compositor, such as
417 toplevel windows, menus, etc. The types of functionality are split into
418 xdg_surface roles.
419
420 Creating an xdg_surface does not set the role for a wl_surface. In order
421 to map an xdg_surface, the client must create a role-specific object
422 using, e.g., get_toplevel, get_popup. The wl_surface for any given
423 xdg_surface can have at most one role, and may not be assigned any role
424 not based on xdg_surface.
425
426 A role must be assigned before any other requests are made to the
427 xdg_surface object.
428
429 The client must call wl_surface.commit on the corresponding wl_surface
430 for the xdg_surface state to take effect.
431
432 Creating an xdg_surface from a wl_surface which has a buffer attached or
433 committed is a client error, and any attempts by a client to attach or
434 manipulate a buffer prior to the first xdg_surface.configure call must
435 also be treated as errors.
436
437 After creating a role-specific object and setting it up (e.g. by sending
438 the title, app ID, size constraints, parent, etc), the client must
439 perform an initial commit without any buffer attached. The compositor
440 will reply with initial wl_surface state such as
441 wl_surface.preferred_buffer_scale followed by an xdg_surface.configure
442 event. The client must acknowledge it and is then allowed to attach a
443 buffer to map the surface.
444
445 Mapping an xdg_surface-based role surface is defined as making it
446 possible for the surface to be shown by the compositor. Note that
447 a mapped surface is not guaranteed to be visible once it is mapped.
448
449 For an xdg_surface to be mapped by the compositor, the following
450 conditions must be met:
451 (1) the client has assigned an xdg_surface-based role to the surface
452 (2) the client has set and committed the xdg_surface state and the
453 role-dependent state to the surface
454 (3) the client has committed a buffer to the surface
455
456 A newly-unmapped surface is considered to have met condition (1) out
457 of the 3 required conditions for mapping a surface if its role surface
458 has not been destroyed, i.e. the client must perform the initial commit
459 again before attaching a buffer.

514 The window geometry of a surface is its "visible bounds" from the
515 user's perspective. Client-side decorations often have invisible
516 portions like drop-shadows which should be ignored for the
517 purposes of aligning, placing and constraining windows. Note that
518 in some situations, compositors may clip rendering to the window
519 geometry, so the client should avoid putting functional elements
520 outside of it.
521
522 The window geometry is double-buffered state, see wl_surface.commit.
523
524 When maintaining a position, the compositor should treat the (x, y)
525 coordinate of the window geometry as the top left corner of the window.
526 A client changing the (x, y) window geometry coordinate should in
527 general not alter the position of the window.
528
529 Once the window geometry of the surface is set, it is not possible to
530 unset it, and it will remain the same until set_window_geometry is

537 The arguments are given in the surface-local coordinate space of
538 the wl_surface associated with this xdg_surface, and may extend outside
539 of the wl_surface itself to mark parts of the subsurface tree as part of
540 the window geometry.
541
542 When applied, the effective window geometry will be the set window
543 geometry clamped to the bounding rectangle of the combined
544 geometry of the surface of the xdg_surface and the associated
545 subsurfaces.
546
547 The effective geometry will not be recalculated unless a new call to

549 subsequently applied.

551 The width and height of the effective window geometry must be

562 <description summary="ack a configure event">
563 When a configure event is received, if a client commits the
564 surface in response to the configure event, then the client
565 must make an ack_configure request sometime before the commit
566 request, passing along the serial of the configure event.
567
568 For instance, for toplevel surfaces the compositor might use this
569 information to move a surface to the top left only when the client has
570 drawn itself for the maximized or fullscreen state.
571
572 If the client receives multiple configure events before it
573 can respond to one, it only has to ack the last configure event.
574 Acking a configure event that was never sent raises an invalid_serial
575 error.
576
577 A client is not required to commit immediately after sending
578 an ack_configure request - it may even ack_configure several times
579 before its next surface commit.
580
581 A client may send multiple ack_configure requests before committing, but
582 only the last request sent before a commit indicates which configure
583 event the client really is responding to.
584
585 Sending an ack_configure request consumes the serial number sent with
586 the request, as well as serial numbers sent by all configure events
587 sent on this xdg_surface prior to the configure event referenced by
588 the committed serial.
589
590 It is an error to issue multiple ack_configure requests referencing a
591 serial from the same configure event, or to issue an ack_configure
592 request referencing a serial from a configure event issued before the
593 event identified by the last ack_configure request for the same
594 xdg_surface. Doing so will raise an invalid_serial error.

604
605 Where applicable, xdg_surface surface roles will during a configure
606 sequence extend this event as a latched state sent as events before the
607 xdg_surface.configure event. Such events should be considered to make up
608 a set of atomically applied configuration states, where the

625 This interface defines an xdg_surface role which allows a surface to,

627 fullscreen, and minimize, set application-specific metadata like title and
628 id, and well as trigger user interactive operations such as interactive
629 resize and move.
630
631 A xdg_toplevel by default is responsible for providing the full intended
632 visual representation of the toplevel, which depending on the window
633 state, may mean things like a title bar, window controls and drop shadow.
634
635 Unmapping an xdg_toplevel means that the surface cannot be shown
636 by the compositor until it is explicitly mapped again.
637 All active operations (e.g., move, resize) are canceled and all
638 attributes (e.g. title, state, stacking, ...) are discarded for
639 an xdg_toplevel surface when it is unmapped. The xdg_toplevel returns to
640 the state it had right after xdg_surface.get_toplevel. The client
641 can re-map the toplevel by performing a commit without any buffer
642 attached, waiting for a configure event and handling it as usual (see

1085 After requesting that the surface should be fullscreened, the
1086 compositor will respond by emitting a configure event. Whether the
1087 client is actually put into a fullscreen state is subject to compositor
1088 policies. The client must also acknowledge the configure when
1089 committing the new content (see ack_configure).
1090
1091 The output passed by the request indicates the client's preference as
1092 to which display it should be set fullscreen on. If this value is NULL,
1093 it's up to the compositor to choose which display will be used to map
1094 this surface.
1095
1096 If the surface doesn't cover the whole output, the compositor will
1097 position the surface in the center of the output and compensate with
1098 with border fill covering the rest of the output. The content of the
1099 border fill is undefined, but should be assumed to be in some way that
1100 attempts to blend into the surrounding area (e.g. solid black).
1101
1102 If the fullscreened surface is not opaque, the compositor must make
1103 sure that other screen content not part of the same surface tree (made
1104 up of subsurfaces, popups or similarly coupled surfaces) are not
1105 visible below the fullscreened surface.

1114 After requesting that the surface should be unfullscreened, the

1116 Whether this actually removes the fullscreen state of the client is
1117 subject to compositor policies.
1118
1119 Making a surface unfullscreen sets states for the surface based on the following:
1120 * the state(s) it may have had before becoming fullscreen
1121 * any state(s) decided by the compositor
1122 * any state(s) requested by the client while the surface was fullscreen
1123
1124 The compositor may include the previous window geometry dimensions in
1125 the configure event, if applicable.

1151 The width and height arguments specify a hint to the window

1153 coordinates. See set_window_geometry.
1154
1155 If the width or height arguments are zero, it means the client

1157 compositor needs to configure the state of the surface but doesn't
1158 have any information about any previous or expected dimension.

1160 The states listed in the event specify how the width/height
1161 arguments should be interpreted, and possibly how it should be

1290 This request makes the created popup take an explicit grab. An explicit
1291 grab will be dismissed when the user dismisses the popup, or when the
1292 client destroys the xdg_popup. This can be done by the user clicking
1293 outside the surface, using the keyboard, or even locking the screen
1294 through closing the lid or a timeout.
1295
1296 If the compositor denies the grab, the popup will be immediately
1297 dismissed.
1298
1299 This request must be used in response to some sort of user action like a
1300 button press, key press, or touch down event. The serial number of the
1301 event should be passed as 'serial'.
1302
1303 The parent of a grabbing popup must either be an xdg_toplevel surface or
1304 another xdg_popup with an explicit grab. If the parent is another
1305 xdg_popup it means that the popups are nested, with this popup now being
1306 the topmost popup.
1307
1308 Nested popups must be destroyed in the reverse order they were created
1309 in, e.g. the only popup you are allowed to destroy at all times is the
1310 topmost one.
1311
1312 When compositors choose to dismiss a popup, they may dismiss every
1313 nested grabbing popup as well. When a compositor dismisses popups, it
1314 will follow the same dismissing order as required from the client.
1315
1316 If the topmost grabbing popup is destroyed, the grab will be returned to
1317 the parent of the popup, if that parent previously had an explicit grab.
1318
1319 If the parent is a grabbing popup which has already been dismissed, this
1320 popup will be immediately dismissed. If the parent is a popup that did
1321 not take an explicit grab, an error will be raised.
1322
1323 During a popup grab, the client owning the grab will receive pointer
1324 and touch events for all their surfaces as normal (similar to an
1325 "owner-events" grab in X11 parlance), while the top most grabbing popup
1326 will always have keyboard focus.
