45 config file option, under the "menu" section.
46 * Fixed bug #4464 (Typo in openbox-gnome-session script).

107 session manager and ask it to exit if so, or simply kill Openbox if not.
108 * Further tweaks to the _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW message handling. Use the same
109 logic for focus-stealing as is used when mapping a new window.
110 * Don't go out of our way any more to prevent focus from moving while the

130 * Add "next" and "prev" as possible <monitor> targets in the moveto and
132 * Allow escaping the _ used to mark the shortcut character in menu labels.

134 as a single underscore. The rest of the _ in the string will be unaffected,
135 so only double the first one.
136 * Only replace ~ with the home directory when it is preceded by whitespace or
137 is at the start of the string, and when it is followed by a space, slash, or

151 * When moving a window to another desktop with following on, bring the
152 window's helper windows (for example gimp image windows with the toolbox
153 set to utility window).
154 * Change the _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW messages again, if they originate from the
155 app and the window is on another desktop, just set the demands_attention
156 flag. If the event came from the user (ie pager/panel), then the window
157 is still moved to the current desktop.
160 * The system I used to generate the dist tarball didn't have the
161 docbook-to-man command so the manpages were empty.
164 * Not to be outdone by the cairo team, I introduced a bug in the last release
165 which made resizing not give any feedback. This is now fixed.

171 * Partially updated Spanish translation
172 * Add an example of the "force" option for the per-app placement options to
173 the default rc.xml file
174 * Add a new xdg-autostart script. This will eventually end up in the PyXDG
175 distribution hopefully, but it is included in Openbox for now. This script
176 runs things based on the freedesktop.org autostart specification. You can
177 have it run GNOME, KDE, ROX, or XFCE specific things if you want. The
178 new default system-wide autostart.sh script runs it automatically
179 * Update the default menu.xml to include a lot of common apps
180 * Fix white font shadows (negative shadowtint)
181 * Update the autostart.sh to find gnome-settings-daemon correctly, as the

189 to bring the window to the current desktop instead. This is the industry
191 * Use the pretty new openbox.png icon as the default window icon
192 * Allow matching per-application rules to windows by their window type
193 (normal, dialog, splash, etc). The default rc.xml has more details
194 * Add new Openbox-themed prompt windows. Use these prompt windows to ask
195 before killing off windows that aren't responding. This also means we
196 don't need to ping every window constantly forever
197 * Add a new <prompt> option to the Execute action. If this is set to a
198 string, a dialog will be shown with that string in it and "yes"/"no"
199 buttons. The command to be executed will only be run if the user selects
201 * Add a new <prompt> option to the Exit action, which is a boolean (not a
202 string). When true, Openbox will show a dialog confirming if you want to
203 exit. The default is to show the prompt
204 * Reduce Openbox's memory footprint and speed up rendering through the use
205 of a new icon cache, so that Openbox only needs to keep 1 copy of an icon
206 when 100 different windows share it
207 * Make Openbox menus have the "menu type" hint for compositors to see and use
208 * Fix the MoveResizeTo action for negative coords (opposite edges)
209 * Fix key bindings getting lost if multiple bindings at the same level could

214 * Fix some off-by-one bugs with the edge growing/shrinking code
215 * Add new theme options for menu line separators: menu.separator.color,
216 menu.separator.width, menu.separator.padding.width,
217 menu.separator.padding.height
218 * Add xfce-mcs-manager to the default autostart.sh, and run it automatically
219 when gnome-settings-daemon is not present to have GTK apps inherit settings
220 from the XFCE configuration tools
221 * Make the send-to-desktop menu in the client-menu indicate which is the current
222 desktop for omnipresent windows, and don't close it if just toggling
223 omni-presence when ctrl-clicking
224 * Add a new SessionLogout action that logs out through the session manager,
225 when running Openbox within a session manager such as within an
226 GNOME/Openbox or KDE/Openbox session. The action includes a <prompt>
227 option which is similar to the Exit action's
228 * Add a new gdm-control command that lets you control gdm from within an X
229 session. The gdm-control lets you change GDM's behaviour for when you end
230 the current session. For instance, you can tell GDM to reboot, and
231 then immediately log out of the current session, and the computer will be
233 * Show an information dialog when an error occurs for Openbox, such as when
234 the Execute action fails or when XML syntax errors are present in the

237 on top of the ones on its left.
240 * Updated Clearlooks theme

247 the "Manage Desktops" section appearing in the combined-client-list-menu
248 * Fix for menu headers showing the wrong text
249 * Fix for the <focusLast> behavior
250 * Treat modal direct children as one window with their parent consistently

269 * Improve the LastDesktop action to not remember desktops you skipped across
270 * Ignore mouse clicks that are made on override-redirect (unmanaged) windows
271 * When opening a menu with a key binding, don't use the key binding to run
272 something in the menu

274 to place new windows on the active monitor, or the monitor where the mouse
275 is, instead of on any monitor (for xinerama multihead setups)
276 * Add options for placing the window move/resize coordinate popup window in
277 a fixed position on screen, rather than relative to the window being

285 in normal ways (fixes new GNOME session logout dialogs)
286 * Fix bug with resizing corners on certain parts of the window frame
287 * Ping applications to tell when they are running or have become frozen.
288 Show a [Not Responding] message in the title bar of windows which are
290 * When closing a window which is [Not Responding], kill the window's process
291 if it is running on the same machine as Openbox. Otherwise, just
293 the window from the X display. A second attempt to close a [Not
295 window will kill it forcefully (kill -9).
296 * Fixes for internal timers
297 * Add a <wmclass> option for the execute action's startup-notification. This
298 lets you tell Openbox that the application will map a window with the

301 * Fix for empty dock taking up space onscreen after a reconfigure
302 * Reduce Openbox's additional memory footprint per-window and per-menu
303 * Faster horizontal gradient rendering

326 * Fix so that if you select an omnipresent window on another desktop in the
327 client list menus, it will go to that desktop
328 * Make the GrowToEdge action shrink once there is no more room to grow,
329 similar to in 3.4.2, but shrinking to edges as well

369 * Don't show the client border for undecorated windows when keepBorder is on,
370 just the outer border
371 * Some improvements in the smart placement to help it find a place more
372 often. This needs more work still.
373 * Don't focus windows that appear under the mouse in mouse-focus mode unless
374 underMouse is enabled
375 * Don't move focus when the window under the pointer iconifies unless
376 underMouse is enabled
377 * Respect min/max window sizes when a window is fullscreened or maximized.
378 This fixes problems experienced with maximizing vnc windows
379 * Don't XUngrabKeyboard unless we need to
380 * Correct calculations for the menu header width, so that they are not
381 ellisized unnecessarily

407 * Fix Onyx themes - fade out disabled buttons
408 * Don't auto-resize windows to fit on screen if they are UserSpecified

413 * Removed deprecated actions:
414 - ShowDesktop, UnshowDesktop (Use ToggleShowDesktop)

420 * Add actions to add/remove the last desktop in the client list menus
421 * Use startup notification when launching ObConf in the default root menu
422 * Remove the desktop switching dialog, as it confuses people and they don't
423 know how to turn it off to switch desktops instantly. Some other
424 incarnation may return in the future.
425 * Add optional <finalactions> option for NextWindow, PreviousWindow,
426 DirectionalFocus*, and DirectionalTarget* actions
427 * Don't focus new helper windows unless they are alone in their group. This
429 * Fancy keyboard window moving:
430 - Shift-arrow will move the window to the next edge
431 - Control-arrow will move the window by only 1 pixel
432 - Arrow will move the window by a larger number of pixels
433 * Fancy keyboard window resizing:
434 - The first arrow will choose an edge to resize (then you can grow or
435 shrink the window on that edge)
436 - Hitting an arrow perpendicular to your selected edge will choose a
437 different edge to resize
438 - Shift-arrow will grow/shrink the window to the next edge
439 - Control arrow will grow/shrink the window by only 1 pixel
440 - Arrow will grow/shrink the window by a larger number of pixel
441 * Timeout when synchronously resizing a window so you can still resize busy
442 or dead application windows
443 * Let you specify keyboard shortcuts in your root menus with _. Such as
444 label="XTe_rm" would make 'r' the shortcut key.
445 * Fixes for placing windows with per-app settings:
446 - you can now place windows relative to any edge of the screen instead of
447 only the top left. (-0 uses the far edge, +0 uses the near edge. You can

456 and 1 direct transient for one of the group transients.
457 * Don't include child/parent windows in tests for being occluded or occluding
458 other windows, since you can't raise/lower above/below them. This fixes
459 the raiselower action for windows which have children.
460 * Reduce the size of the middle gradient in splitvertical gradients. This
461 makes the split harder than it was in 3.4.2
462 * Don't include debian/ dir in releases
463 * Add resize bindings for the edges to the default hardcoded bindings
464 * Fix focus cycle indicator positioning for some windows (i.e. OpenOffice)

466 you move a window to any edge of any screen.
467 * Make actions that look for edges include the dock's edges (e.g. MoveToEdge)
468 * New preferred option for the Execute action is <command> instead of

470 * Fix for moving windows partially offsceen causing them to jump far away
471 * Fix for windows which are not on any monitor, to keep them on screen
473 * Require libstartupnotification 0.8 in configure (we use stuff that was not

476 programs (getting MapNotify before you are visible)
477 * Handle case gracefully when ConfigureRequent for restacking specifies
478 a siblig which we aren't managing
479 * Use KeyRelease to run things from Openbox menus, so that the release

496 * Fix for gtk apps trying to get focus - mostly nullify focus stealing
497 prevention (Fixes Tilda)
498 * Send ConfigureNotify always on ConfigureRequest (Previous emacs fix
499 makes this possible now)
500 * Fix RelativeResize action for right/bottom edges
501 * Remove SCIM from the default autostart.sh - it has caused problems with
502 some (buggy) panels, such as pypanel
503 * Fix the titlebar changing to non-focused when iconifying a window with

847 from other apps like pagers
848 * Take advantage of ksmserver (KDE Session Manager) features
849 * KDE/Openbox and GNOME/Openbox options for display manager GDM/KDM. Use
850 openbox-gnome-session and openbox-kde-session to run a GNOME or KDE
851 session with Openbox as the window manager.
852 * Titlebar buttons autohide when hiding won't move other buttons (removed
853 the hideDisabled option from config file)
854 * Support user time window hint, which is good for laptops power usage

859 * Let you move maximized windows between Xinerama monitors
860 * Improve application awareness of focus, e.g. Kopete and Firefox, so they

1000 * I think the lib linking in Makefile.am is right now, please tell me if it
1002 * Added a finnish translation and some minor updates to others.
1003 * Fixed configure.ac so --enable-pango doesn't disable pango support or the
1004 other way around, make enabled be default to get some extra testing.
1007 * Poked around a bit in the code that keeps windows onscreen, if you
1008 are using xinerama, please let me know if things are better/worse/same.
1009 * Add support for pango, disabled by default due to a bug in pango 1.8 that
1010 breaks shadows, it works fine with 1.6.x though. Poke the pango developers
1011 here http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=169622 if you want this
1013 * Made edge resist and Send/MoveToEdge not hit windows at layers below
1014 the current one, add option to disable this behaviour.
1015 * Fixed directional focus not getting trapped in omnipresent windows
1016 * Fixed focus actions when bound to the mouse, normal focus cycle is always
1017 linear and directional focus is totally disabled, it makes no sense
1018 anyway, just move the mouse.
1019 * Added an option for the raise/lower/raiselower/unshaderaise/shadelower
1020 options called group that lets you bind stuff to raise/lower the whole
1021 window group. <action name="raise"><group>yes</group></action>
1022 * Add various new actions. I haven't updated the web docs yet, but I think
1023 I managed to get all of them listed in rc.xsd.
1024 * Bugs 1783, 1812, 1863, 1905, 2005, 1957 fixed.
1025 * Some translations added. (ca, no, pl, ru, fr)
1028 * Added spanish and swedish translations
1029 * Changed "Unnamed Desktop" to "Desktop n" where n is the actual
1030 number of the desktop
1031 * Hopefully no more of the hanging X totally bug
1032 * the fullscreen property now overrides aspect hints, all programs i've
1033 tried that use it (mplayer and tvtime) handle the aspect internally
1034 anyway, this just makes sure you have black borders all the way to the
1035 edge. If this breaks anything for you, let me know.
1036 * Added M as an alias for Mod3 in the same manner that W is an alias for Mod4
1037 * Added probably too many options and actions
1038 * ToggleDockAutohide to toggle the autohide option at runtime,
1039 doesn't save it to the config
1040 * keepBorder option to set if you want the 1-pixel border when you
1042 * added popupShow and popupPosition to control where and when the
1043 move/resize-popup is shown, these go in the resize section of the config
1044 popupPosition can be Top or Center, popupShow can be Always, Never or
1045 Nonpixel (this is the default).
1046 * Added the xorStyle option to change the behaviour of menus along the bottom
1047 edge, note that the default is true
1048 * warpPointer option in the menu section to control if the mouse cursor is
1049 to be warped by openbox when the menu moves to keep on screen to keep the
1050 cursor in the same place relative to the menu. (I think i got that right)
1051 * Added back the focusLast option (this controls what happens when you
1052 change desktops and have followMouse on)
1053 * Added an option to set which desktop to start on when you start openbox,
1054 firstdesk, for example you might like to set it to 5 if you have a 3x3
1055 grid to start in the middle.
1056 * I think that was everything, have fun
