the GTK half
Asked to research how KDE and GNOME make decorations consistent, after being
told too quickly that srdwm could only control its own titlebar.
Measured against a nested srdwm, one client at a time: Qt/KDE creates a
decoration object and asks for server-side; winit creates one and asks for
CLIENT-side; GTK never creates one at all. The xdg-decoration spec says the
compositor "can decide not to use the client's mode and enforce a different
mode instead" and that the client "must obey" - so the first two are
srdwm's to decide, and it had simply been deferring. The same spec closes
the door on the third: a client that does not negotiate continues to
self-decorate, and GTK is not having the conversation.
New theme.decorations.force_server_side, default off, overrides the client's
requested mode. Verified: with it off Alacritty draws its own content to the
window's top edge, with it on the same window gets srdwm's titlebar --
(0,0,0) versus (46,52,64) sampled at three rows. Off by default because it
cannot move a GTK button and can stack srdwm's titlebar on a client that
draws its own regardless, which is the Firefox case already recorded here.
The GTK half needs no compositor code, only the desktop setting GTK actually
reads - xdg-desktop-portal's org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences button-layout
for GTK4, gtk-decoration-layout for GTK3. This machine was serving
"close,minimize,maximize:" (left) while srdwm's own button_side was right,
which is the entire mismatch. Documented in DEFAULTS.md with the mapping
from button_side to layout string, and noted that this is exactly what
kde-gtk-config does for KWin.
525 tests pass, clippy clean.

The punch list was not the whole record. These are the owner's own typed
requests, read back out of the previous session's transcript rather than
guessed at, then each checked against the code before being treated as open.
Three they suspected were already done really were: dialogs already had a
Close-only titlebar, inactive dimming already existed, and the corner resize
hitbox had already been tuned.
Snap layouts on drag, asked for twice. Edge snapping worked but committed
silently on release with nothing shown first, so there was no way to know it
would happen or where. A translucent drop-target preview now follows the
drag, and throwing the pointer at a monitor's top edge drops down the
existing six-cell grid to aim at. The preview calls the same snap_zone that
end_drag does, so the two cannot disagree. Two defects found by screenshot
before landing: moving down onto the flyout closed it, and its labels
overflowed at a fixed cell width - the same "text goes out of view" fault
already fixed once for the context menu.
New File now offers real types, chosen by extension, with the de-duplication
counter placed before the extension so the file stays what it says it is.
Refresh re-reads init.lua and fires a new srd.on("refresh") handler instead
of only re-scanning the icon grid. What refresh means beyond srdwm's own
config stays the config's decision.
general.config_reload_on_write (default on) applies an edited config on save,
via an mtime sweep rather than an inotify watch: no new dependency, same
behaviour on every target, and unaffected by editors that write through a
temp file.
A real bug behind "what happens when our config fails": you lost every
keybinding. do_reload cleared the binding, handler and repeat tables before
re-executing and never restored them, so a syntax error left neither the old
config nor the new one, and the only key still working was the reload combo
nobody thinks to press. The tables are now restored on any failure and
config errors reach notify-send, not just the log.
srd.lock() and a default Mod4+Ctrl+l binding: the built-in lock screen could
not be reached from Lua at all. Native rather than shelling out, because a
lock key that shells out fails silently when the binary is not on PATH.
Default bindings added for srd.window.move and a dynamic/tiling toggle, both
of which existed with no way to reach them, plus srd.layout.get() so the
toggle reads the live workspace rather than the configured default.
Dialogs open centred, and are excluded from remembered geometry in both
directions - that table is keyed by app_id, which a dialog shares with the
window that spawned it, so dialogs inherited an unrelated position and size
and then overwrote it with their own.
theme.decorations.title_bar.button_mode (dynamic by default, or fixed) drops
the Maximize button on a window whose client pinned min == max size, where
pressing it can do nothing. Maximize is removed from the slot list rather
than skipped in place on both the render and hit-test sides, so the remaining
buttons close the gap identically; three tests pin that agreement, which is
what fails silently when it drifts.
Also: the nested backend's screencopy pass now draws both menus, the flyout
and the drag preview. Four investigations in one day started from a
screenshot missing a tier, so that pass carries an explicit list of what it
still omits and the on-screen loop points at it.
512 tests pass, clippy clean.

Investigated the "tiling needs a lot of work" report directly. The
MasterStackLayout algorithm itself was already correct; the real gap was
that dragging or resizing a tiled window did nothing durable (raw
geometry that the next arrange_workspace silently discarded), and
master_ratio/master_count had no live path at all (config-file only).
A resize-drag on the shared master/stack boundary now live-adjusts
TilingConfig::master_ratio and re-arranges the group immediately; srd set
master_ratio/master_count do the same for a keybind or script. Found and
fixed a real bug while building this: start_resize's own focus_window
call re-stacks its target in self.order before the ratio-drag decision
used to be made, silently misclassifying real master-column grabs.
Fixed by deciding ratio-drag status (and freezing the membership
snapshot it depends on) before that raise happens, applying
MasterStackLayout directly against the frozen snapshot rather than
re-deriving membership from the by-then-reordered live order. Live-
verified in a nested compositor, not just unit-tested.
Also closes the readback gaps flagged directly by the AGS peer session:
border_width/border_color/corner_radius/decoration_mode/gap_inner/
gap_outer/master_ratio/master_count were all live-settable via srd set
with no way to read the current value back, and pin_input had no
readback at all. SettingsResponse now reports all of them; a new
pinned_inputs query (srd pinned inputs) lists every currently pinned
pid/window.

Safety commit before reconciling this worktree with main, which has
diverged with its own separate fixes today. Nothing here is reviewed
or curated yet - this exists purely so none of this work can be lost
to a git operation, disk issue, or worktree cleanup while that
reconciliation happens.

test coverage
Bundles several related changes to crates/core built up over this
session rather than committed incrementally:
- WindowManager::request_capture_workspace/drain_capture_requests (new
manager/capture.rs) - backend-agnostic queuing for an off-screen
workspace render, see the wayland-side commit for why this exists.
- focus_window now switches workspace as a side effect when the target
isn't on the current one, matching Hyprland's focuswindow convention
(manager/focus.rs).
- Assorted window/rules/theme field additions and their test coverage.
Left less granular than the repo's usual one-purpose-per-commit
convention deliberately: these accumulated across a long session
without being committed as they landed, and are too entangled
line-by-line to safely split apart now without risking mis-attributing
changes to the wrong commit message.

IPC/global-menu/output-management work
Border/titlebar decoration was built from Window.geometry (the animation's
final target) in both wayland backends' render loops, while sync_geometry
already draws a window's actual content at window_anims' interpolated rect
during any maximize/fullscreen/open-slide tween. Border and content read two
different rectangles for the whole transition, so the border visibly
detached from the window it was outlining - reported as "borders aren't
flush." Both udev.rs and winit.rs now read the same animated rect for
titlebar placement, border-strip placement, and the occlusion test against
later windows in stacking order. Verified: cargo build --workspace, cargo
clippy (0 new warnings), cargo test -p srdwm-core (111/111).
Also checkpoints substantial protocol/IPC work from prior sessions that had
accumulated uncommitted: gtk-shell1 support (gtk_shell.rs, the vendored
gtk-shell.xml, xwayland.rs's X11-side mirror) backing the global app menu;
zwlr_foreign_toplevel_manager_v1 (foreign_toplevel.rs) broadcasting distinct
maximized/minimized/fullscreen/activated state per window; output_management
(ext-output-management + layer-shell exclusive-zone reservation tracking);
workspace.rs and context_menu.rs; a Unix-socket IPC crate (platform/src/
ipc.rs) and a `srd` control-CLI crate (crates/ctl); xkb_config.rs; and a
theme module (core/src/theme.rs). A peer session working the AGS shell
concurrently verified several of these live against a running srdwm: the
global menu rendering a real app's File/Edit menu over gtk-shell1, and
foreign-toplevel correctly reporting maximized and fullscreen as independent,
non-simultaneous states with the geometry each implies (maximize stops at a
reserved top bar and past a dock; fullscreen reaches the true monitor edge).
