@ammen99 ammen99 released this 13 Mar 13:33

This is a bug-fix release with a few new features. Notable changes:

  • Compatible with wlroots 0.17.x releases and wf-config 0.8.x
  • Support for multiple new protocols:
    • shortcuts-inhibit-v1 (shotcuts-inhibit plugin, #1969)
    • fractional-scale-v1
    • wlr_drm_lease_v1 for non-desktop outputs
    • input-method-v1 for better fcitx5 support (#2172). Note that the older support for input-method-v2 has also been improved, but is now disabled by default, because input-method-v1 works better in most cases. Nonetheless, it can be enabled again by setting workarounds/enable_input_method_v2 = true.
  • Wayfire's IPC has been extended with many new signals and commands:
    • Has methods to get view, output and workspace (and workspace-set) information
    • Signals for view-mapped, unmapped, plugin-activation-state-changed and several others.
    • More plugins can be activated via the IPC, check the full commit log for details.
  • Wayfire supports SIGINT, SIGTERM for graceful shutdown (#2056, #2197)
  • Oswitch has binding to switch in the other direction (#2072)
  • Many crashes and bugs were fixed, including regressions in the 0.8.0 release.
