Con* ewmh_get_workspace_by_index ( uint32_t  idx)

Returns the workspace container as enumerated by the EWMH desktop model.

Returns NULL if no workspace could be found for the index.

This is the reverse of ewmh_get_workspace_index.

uint32_t ewmh_get_workspace_index ( Con con)

Returns the EWMH desktop index for the workspace the given container is on.

Returns NET_WM_DESKTOP_NONE if the desktop index cannot be determined.

This is the reverse of ewmh_get_workspace_by_index.

void ewmh_update_workarea ( void  )

i3 currently does not support _NET_WORKAREA, because it does not correspond to i3’s concept of workspaces.

See also: http://bugs.i3wm.org/539 http://bugs.i3wm.org/301 http://bugs.i3wm.org/1038

We need to actively delete this property because some display managers (e.g. LightDM) set it.

EWMH: Contains a geometry for each desktop. These geometries specify an area that is completely contained within the viewport. Work area SHOULD be used by desktop applications to place desktop icons appropriately.

Variable Documentation

xcb_window_t ewmh_window

The EWMH support window that is used to indicate that an EWMH-compliant window manager is present.

This window is created when i3 starts and kept alive until i3 exits. We also use this window as the focused window if no other window is available to be focused on the active workspace in order to prevent keyboard focus issues (see #1378).
