  • ✓ add ability to have resize grips all the way around the window in DTWM/MWM/TWM/CTWM/VTWM fashion

  • ❏ test resize grips all the way around

Decoration styles:

Internal layout mechanism:

  • ✓ make layouts loadable modules

  • ❏ apply tree format to floating windows and floating window placement.

  • ❏ use a freeform tree for mimic floating window placement

  • ❏ add ability to float from any layout without disturbing tree model for tiled layout

Behaviour:

  • ✓ showing desktop mode in fluxbox(1) is per desktop, we should do the same and make showing desktop mode only apply to a view.

  • ✓ when resizing windows frame is resizing faster than the client (due to synchronization). Change resizing behaviour to not resize the frame until the client responds to the resize request. (Not sure I want to do this one: current behaviour is ok.)

  • ✓ implement lhalf and rhalf button functions.

  • ✓ switch to lhalf or rhalf at screen/monitor edges (no Ctrl).

  • ✓ defeat snap when moving with Ctrl key.

  • ✓ fix snapping while moving

  • ✓ fix snapping while resizing

  • ❏ support _NET_WM_OPAQUE_REGION

Configuration:

  • ❏ Provide external mechanism for setting configuration items. Possibly use manager selection: do not set property on the conversion window when getting the configuration item; set the property on the conversion window to set the configuration item. Another possibility is to use RESOURCE_MANAGER.

  • ❏ Provide external mechanism for invoking keyboard actions: at least those that are not supported by EWMH and other extensions. Possibly use client message with action id and up to 4 parameters.

  • ❏ Provide external mechanism for redefining key bindings.

  • ✓ Make mouse button action bindings configurable.

  • ❏ Have default key bindings invoke xde-preferred for default terminal, browser, file manager and editor.

  • ❏ Consider using xde-preferred for screenshot, brighness and backlight controls, and audio controls. Either have defined defaults, or use smart scripts (debian way) to find something usable.
