doc/CHANGES.html

6 (2023-12-29)

spatial

  • Fix workspaces not being correctly re-arranged on some occasions: when it had lost focus due to a window being moved to another workspace, or when one of its window had been closed while it was not focused.
  • Introduce status_bar_name <name> command to specify which status bar to signal when the windows arrangement is updated (was previously hard-coded to waybar).
  • Support i3.

spatialblock

  • Rewrite the helper in OCaml, to enjoy (way) better performances leading to a smoother UX.
  • Allow to dynamically associate applications ids with icons using a dedicated configuration file (either $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/spatial/spatialblock.json or $HOME/.config/spatial/spatialblock.json).

5 (2023-12-27)

spatial

  • Fix windows flickering for real (hopefully, this is a long running issue to be honest).
  • Provide the LICENSE file as part of the installation process.

4 (2023-12-27)

spatial

  • Drop support for emulating dimmed unfocused windows by changing the opacity of unfocused windows.
  • Drop any form of background management.
  • Fix windows flickering when hitting two shortcuts at once.

3 (2023-12-26)

spatial

  • Extend commands focus and move to support targeting a specific workspace.
  • Fix focus on floating windows.
  • Extend commands background to specify a mode for the background (either fit or fill).
  • Add a basic support for comments in the config file. Line starting with the character # are ignored.

2 (2023-05-18)

spatial

  • Drop the dynamic linking dependency to GMP.
  • Fix moving a window upward being able to make a window disappear if the current workspace is the upmost one.
  • Fix windows sometimes disappearing from workspaces when moving the focus upward or downward.

spatialmsg

  • Drop the dynamic linking dependency to GMP.

The first release of Spatial Shell establishes a strong foundation for the project. Following in i3 and sway’s footsteps, it introduces a daemon (spatial), a client (spatialmsg), and a IPC protocol for them to communicate.

The spatial model implemented by spatial allows users to navigate a grid of windows wherein workspaces are rows, and to alternate between two layouts (Maximize, and Column).

This is described in depth in the man pages introduced in this release.
