+ | |||
+ | ==== Detection ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | How should xfwm4 be detected: | ||
+ | | ||
+ | * xfconf channel presence | ||
+ | * xfwm4 binary included in PATH | ||
+ | |||
+ | How should xfce4-settings be detected: | ||
+ | * running instance of xfsettingsd (part of the session) | ||
+ | * xfconf channel presence | ||
+ | * xfce4-keyboard-settings and xfce4-appearance-settings present in PATH (or .desktop file) | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== libxfce4kbd ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | xfwm4_shortcut_values in libxfce4kbd-private/ | ||
+ | Meaning libxfce4kbd can't be updated independently from xfwm4 in case of a shortcut change. (Appending is possible) | ||
+ | |||
+ | Possible solutions: | ||
+ | * Accept we can only append (add a comment) | ||
+ | * Add a mapping table to xfwm4 | ||
+ | * Move the mapping to xfwm4 and solve the xfce4-keyboard-settings in a different way | ||
+ | * Add the enum to libxfce4kbd and use static linking on the mappings | ||
+ | * Don't use the enum, use g_intern_string or GQuark | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Embed xfwm's tabs ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Use a GtkPlug/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Discussion ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | * The next logical move seems to be a merge of the xfwm4 and xfwm4-tweaks dialogs, however, this bears a few problems: | ||
