2 * Update Hungarian, Japanese, and Latvian translations.
3 * Make xdg-autostart use the OPENBOX environment by default, so you can use

26 * Improve keyboard navigation in Openbox menus.
27 * Add a --root option and a manpage for obxprop.

29 an infinite delay. This means you have to click to show a submenu, rather
30 than just hover over it.
31 * Improved code for submenu show/hide delay. Added the submenuHideDelay
32 config file option, under the "menu" section.
33 * Fixed bug #4464 (Typo in openbox-gnome-session script).
34 * Fixed bug #4436 (Focusing a window used to stop focus cycling).

91 * Fixed bug #4344 where borders were given to windows that should not have
93 * Merge the SessionLogout and Exit actions. They now test if connected to a
94 session manager and ask it to exit if so, or simply kill Openbox if not.
95 * Further tweaks to the _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW message handling. Use the same
96 logic for focus-stealing as is used when mapping a new window.
97 * Don't go out of our way any more to prevent focus from moving while the

117 * Add "next" and "prev" as possible <monitor> targets in the moveto and
119 * Allow escaping the _ used to mark the shortcut character in menu labels.
120 You can now change the (first) _ in a label to __, this will be displayed
121 as a single underscore. The rest of the _ in the string will be unaffected,
122 so only double the first one.
123 * Only replace ~ with the home directory when it is preceded by whitespace or
124 is at the start of the string, and when it is followed by a space, slash, or
125 the end of the string. This is implemented with GRegex, and so the required

130 * Updated translations: Basque, Catalan, Turkish, Italian, Spanish, Russian.
131 * New translations: Danish, Turkish, Lithuanian.

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

158 * Partially updated Spanish translation
159 * Add an example of the "force" option for the per-app placement options to
160 the default rc.xml file
161 * Add a new xdg-autostart script. This will eventually end up in the PyXDG
162 distribution hopefully, but it is included in Openbox for now. This script
163 runs things based on the freedesktop.org autostart specification. You can
164 have it run GNOME, KDE, ROX, or XFCE specific things if you want. The
165 new default system-wide autostart.sh script runs it automatically
166 * Update the default menu.xml to include a lot of common apps
167 * Fix white font shadows (negative shadowtint)
168 * Update the autostart.sh to find gnome-settings-daemon correctly, as the
169 GNOME people have moved it to libexec

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

201 * Fix some off-by-one bugs with the edge growing/shrinking code
202 * Add new theme options for menu line separators: menu.separator.color,
203 menu.separator.width, menu.separator.padding.width,
204 menu.separator.padding.height
205 * Add xfce-mcs-manager to the default autostart.sh, and run it automatically
206 when gnome-settings-daemon is not present to have GTK apps inherit settings
207 from the XFCE configuration tools
208 * Make the send-to-desktop menu in the client-menu indicate which is the current
209 desktop for omnipresent windows, and don't close it if just toggling
210 omni-presence when ctrl-clicking
211 * Add a new SessionLogout action that logs out through the session manager,
212 when running Openbox within a session manager such as within an
213 GNOME/Openbox or KDE/Openbox session. The action includes a <prompt>
214 option which is similar to the Exit action's
215 * Add a new gdm-control command that lets you control gdm from within an X
216 session. The gdm-control lets you change GDM's behaviour for when you end
217 the current session. For instance, you can tell GDM to reboot, and
218 then immediately log out of the current session, and the computer will be
220 * Show an information dialog when an error occurs for Openbox, such as when
221 the Execute action fails or when XML syntax errors are present in the
223 * When making a window very narrow, don't draw buttons to the right of the title
224 on top of the ones on its left.
227 * Updated Clearlooks theme

230 usability with direct modal transient windows
231 * Fix crash when using <raise> for NextWindow and there are no windows
233 * Add the <manageDesktops> option in the rc.xml <menu> section, which toggles
234 the "Manage Desktops" section appearing in the combined-client-list-menu
235 * Fix for menu headers showing the wrong text
236 * Fix for the <focusLast> behavior
237 * Treat modal direct children as one window with their parent consistently

255 turn the focus target indicator bar off
256 * Improve the LastDesktop action to not remember desktops you skipped across
257 * Ignore mouse clicks that are made on override-redirect (unmanaged) windows
258 * When opening a menu with a key binding, don't use the key binding to run
259 something in the menu
260 * Add a <monitor> option for window placement, which gives you the option
261 to place new windows on the active monitor, or the monitor where the mouse
262 is, instead of on any monitor (for xinerama multihead setups)
263 * Add options for placing the window move/resize coordinate popup window in
264 a fixed position on screen, rather than relative to the window being
266 * Prevent the dock from auto-hiding completely offscreen if the theme has

272 in normal ways (fixes new GNOME session logout dialogs)
273 * Fix bug with resizing corners on certain parts of the window frame
274 * Ping applications to tell when they are running or have become frozen.
275 Show a [Not Responding] message in the title bar of windows which are
277 * When closing a window which is [Not Responding], kill the window's process
278 if it is running on the same machine as Openbox. Otherwise, just
280 the window from the X display. A second attempt to close a [Not
282 window will kill it forcefully (kill -9).
283 * Fixes for internal timers
284 * Add a <wmclass> option for the execute action's startup-notification. This
285 lets you tell Openbox that the application will map a window with the
286 specified class - for applications that do not support startup-notification
288 * Fix for empty dock taking up space onscreen after a reconfigure
289 * Reduce Openbox's additional memory footprint per-window and per-menu
290 * Faster horizontal gradient rendering
291 * Don't deiconify windows that aren't allowed to be directly iconified on

309 * Updated Traditional Chinese translation
310 * Updated Norwegian translation
311 * Fix for MoveToEdge skipping edges sometimes
312 * Let you specify the vertical and horizontal padding independently in themes
313 * Fix so that if you select an omnipresent window on another desktop in the
314 client list menus, it will go to that desktop
315 * Make the GrowToEdge action shrink once there is no more room to grow,
316 similar to in 3.4.2, but shrinking to edges as well

340 * Fix a bug introduced in 3.4.3 which caused the Windows key as a modifier
341 for bindings to not work properly
342 * Let windows skip across monitors in a Xinerama setup when using MoveToEdge

356 * Don't show the client border for undecorated windows when keepBorder is on,
357 just the outer border
358 * Some improvements in the smart placement to help it find a place more
359 often. This needs more work still.
360 * Don't focus windows that appear under the mouse in mouse-focus mode unless
361 underMouse is enabled
362 * Don't move focus when the window under the pointer iconifies unless
363 underMouse is enabled
364 * Respect min/max window sizes when a window is fullscreened or maximized.
365 This fixes problems experienced with maximizing vnc windows
366 * Don't XUngrabKeyboard unless we need to
367 * Correct calculations for the menu header width, so that they are not
368 ellisized unnecessarily
369 * Advanced support for partial struts. When you maximize a window it will

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

399 * Rewrite of the actions subsystem
400 * Removed deprecated actions:
401 - ShowDesktop, UnshowDesktop (Use ToggleShowDesktop)

407 * Add actions to add/remove the last desktop in the client list menus
408 * Use startup notification when launching ObConf in the default root menu
409 * Remove the desktop switching dialog, as it confuses people and they don't

411 incarnation may return in the future.
412 * Add optional <finalactions> option for NextWindow, PreviousWindow,
413 DirectionalFocus*, and DirectionalTarget* actions
414 * Don't focus new helper windows unless they are alone in their group. This
416 * Fancy keyboard window moving:
417 - Shift-arrow will move the window to the next edge
418 - Control-arrow will move the window by only 1 pixel
419 - Arrow will move the window by a larger number of pixels
420 * Fancy keyboard window resizing:
421 - The first arrow will choose an edge to resize (then you can grow or
422 shrink the window on that edge)
423 - Hitting an arrow perpendicular to your selected edge will choose a
424 different edge to resize
425 - Shift-arrow will grow/shrink the window to the next edge
426 - Control arrow will grow/shrink the window by only 1 pixel
427 - Arrow will grow/shrink the window by a larger number of pixel
428 * Timeout when synchronously resizing a window so you can still resize busy
429 or dead application windows
430 * Let you specify keyboard shortcuts in your root menus with _. Such as
431 label="XTe_rm" would make 'r' the shortcut key.
432 * Fixes for placing windows with per-app settings:
433 - you can now place windows relative to any edge of the screen instead of
434 only the top left. (-0 uses the far edge, +0 uses the near edge. You can
435 use --0 and +-0 to specify negative numbers.)
436 - fix bug with windows being placed far off-screen occasionally

443 and 1 direct transient for one of the group transients.
444 * Don't include child/parent windows in tests for being occluded or occluding
445 other windows, since you can't raise/lower above/below them. This fixes
446 the raiselower action for windows which have children.
447 * Reduce the size of the middle gradient in splitvertical gradients. This
448 makes the split harder than it was in 3.4.2
449 * Don't include debian/ dir in releases
450 * Add resize bindings for the edges to the default hardcoded bindings
451 * Fix focus cycle indicator positioning for some windows (i.e. OpenOffice)
452 * Add the MoveResizeTo action. This is very xinerama aware! It also lets
453 you move a window to any edge of any screen.
454 * Make actions that look for edges include the dock's edges (e.g. MoveToEdge)
455 * New preferred option for the Execute action is <command> instead of

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

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

483 * Fix for gtk apps trying to get focus - mostly nullify focus stealing
484 prevention (Fixes Tilda)
485 * Send ConfigureNotify always on ConfigureRequest (Previous emacs fix
486 makes this possible now)
487 * Fix RelativeResize action for right/bottom edges
488 * Remove SCIM from the default autostart.sh - it has caused problems with
489 some (buggy) panels, such as pypanel
490 * Fix the titlebar changing to non-focused when iconifying a window with
492 * Use the new osd theme hints for the dock, rather than the titlebar hints
493 * Fix rare crash when menu is hidden while browsing it
494 * End move/resize more cleanly when focus moves during a move/resize
495 * Don't focus new windows when browsing a menu or moving/resizing a window,
496 just flash the window instead, so that the menu/move/resize doesn't have to
500 * Add Vietnamese translation
501 * Add Japanese translation
502 * Keep new transient windows from not getting focus when any related window

712 * Save the desktop layout and names in the session, and restore them on next

829 * Support for legacy fullscreen applications (that don't use EWMH) such as
831 * Session support for old clients that do not use the session management
833 * Desktop setup is only changed on startup, so as to not overwrite settings
834 from other apps like pagers
835 * Take advantage of ksmserver (KDE Session Manager) features
836 * KDE/Openbox and GNOME/Openbox options for display manager GDM/KDM. Use
837 openbox-gnome-session and openbox-kde-session to run a GNOME or KDE
838 session with Openbox as the window manager.
839 * Titlebar buttons autohide when hiding won't move other buttons (removed
840 the hideDisabled option from config file)
841 * Support user time window hint, which is good for laptops power usage
842 * When legacy windows raise themselves, interpreate as wanting to be
843 activated. Makes Firefox more pleasant.
844 * Don't show handles on windows that cant resize for more extreme visual
846 * Let you move maximized windows between Xinerama monitors
847 * Improve application awareness of focus, e.g. Kopete and Firefox, so they

866 (button masks) will be centered
867 * Default titlebar button icons (as xbms) installed to /usr/share/doc/openbox
868 * New mouse binding contexts Left, Right, TLCorner, TRCorner and Top. These
869 need bindings in config file to be useful. Also new context Bottom which
870 is synonym for Handle.
871 * W is no longer hard coded to Mod4. It is now a shortcut for Super, which

996 * Add support for pango, disabled by default due to a bug in pango 1.8 that
997 breaks shadows, it works fine with 1.6.x though. Poke the pango developers
998 here http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=169622 if you want this
1000 * Made edge resist and Send/MoveToEdge not hit windows at layers below
1001 the current one, add option to disable this behaviour.
1002 * Fixed directional focus not getting trapped in omnipresent windows
1003 * Fixed focus actions when bound to the mouse, normal focus cycle is always
1004 linear and directional focus is totally disabled, it makes no sense
1005 anyway, just move the mouse.
1006 * Added an option for the raise/lower/raiselower/unshaderaise/shadelower
1007 options called group that lets you bind stuff to raise/lower the whole
1008 window group. <action name="raise"><group>yes</group></action>
1009 * Add various new actions. I haven't updated the web docs yet, but I think
1010 I managed to get all of them listed in rc.xsd.
1011 * Bugs 1783, 1812, 1863, 1905, 2005, 1957 fixed.
1012 * Some translations added. (ca, no, pl, ru, fr)
1015 * Added spanish and swedish translations
1016 * Changed "Unnamed Desktop" to "Desktop n" where n is the actual
1017 number of the desktop
1018 * Hopefully no more of the hanging X totally bug
1019 * the fullscreen property now overrides aspect hints, all programs i've
1020 tried that use it (mplayer and tvtime) handle the aspect internally
1021 anyway, this just makes sure you have black borders all the way to the
1022 edge. If this breaks anything for you, let me know.
1023 * Added M as an alias for Mod3 in the same manner that W is an alias for Mod4
1024 * Added probably too many options and actions
1025 * ToggleDockAutohide to toggle the autohide option at runtime,
1026 doesn't save it to the config
1027 * keepBorder option to set if you want the 1-pixel border when you
1029 * added popupShow and popupPosition to control where and when the
1030 move/resize-popup is shown, these go in the resize section of the config
1031 popupPosition can be Top or Center, popupShow can be Always, Never or
1032 Nonpixel (this is the default).
1033 * Added the xorStyle option to change the behaviour of menus along the bottom
1034 edge, note that the default is true
1035 * warpPointer option in the menu section to control if the mouse cursor is
1036 to be warped by openbox when the menu moves to keep on screen to keep the
1037 cursor in the same place relative to the menu. (I think i got that right)
1038 * Added back the focusLast option (this controls what happens when you
1039 change desktops and have followMouse on)
1040 * Added an option to set which desktop to start on when you start openbox,
1041 firstdesk, for example you might like to set it to 5 if you have a 3x3
1042 grid to start in the middle.
1043 * I think that was everything, have fun
