3 Mostly this release still fixes issues in the big 3ds-20061015 release,
4 but in addition there are some improvements in the query department:
6 * Query activation key now cycles completions (So e.g. the
7 in the context menu activated with META+M, this same key
8 can be used to cycle through the alternatives.) This does
9 not work for queries activated by submap bindings.
11 * Likewise, it is no longer necessary to specify the key to
12 use for cycling for `mod_menu.grabmenu`.
14 * Control+R can now be used for history completion in queries.
15 (Currently matching is done for full string up to 'point', but
16 this may be changed to substring match.)
18 * Note that the parametrisation of WEdln.complete has changed,
19 and the second cycle parameter must be 'next' now instead of

32 * WIonWS and WFloatWS and the corresponding modules are also gone, and
33 your custom configuration files will be broken with regard to these.
34 However, a partial backwards compatibility hack exists for layout
37 The F9 and META-F9 bindings now by default create workspaces with
38 a tiled layout of two frames. To create an "empty" workspace,
39 corresponding to the old WFloatWS, use the context menu (META-M)
40 and chose "new-empty-workspace". It is also possible to change
43 * Note that if you restart from an old version to this new version of Ion,
44 transients will stop working as expected for already existing windows.
45 They will work for newly-created windows, however.
47 * There are a few new sets of binding (including one for ^WClientWin!),
48 and some old bindings may not work exactly as expected anymore. In
49 particular, those for switching to full-screen mode.
52 It is probably best to start from scratch with your custom bindings.
55 * ^WFrame.set_tabbar is gone. If you absolutely want to get rid off
56 the tabs, you must change the frame's "mode" with ^WFrame.set_mode.
57 The mode "tiled-alt" has been intended for this, and the corresponding
58 "framed-tiled-alt" style defaults to ^Bar = "none".
60 * The rather popular ^Detach.lua script from the scripts repository
61 is obsoleted now, as Ion includes detach functionality in itself.
62 To detach a window, use META-K D in the default bindings. To tile
63 an existing from an a workspace that doesn't have a tiling yet,

70 * Changes in the set of configuration files.
72 - cfg_ion.lua now simply load cfg_ioncore.lua and cfg_modules.lua
73 with the default set of modules, and includes some of the most
74 commonly changed options commented-out. This deprecates cfg_user.lua
75 - cfg_menus.lua and cfg_bindings.lua are now cfg_ioncore.lua. This
76 better matches how things for different modules are in their own

83 * The scrachpad class was removed. The scratchpad is just a normal frame
84 now, with a few special attributes. Your scratchpad configuration from
85 the layout savefile will be lost (and complained of). A new one should
86 open with the toggle key.
88 * There's generic size policy code that both mplexes and client windows
89 use (for transients). The default size policy for (framed) transients
90 keeps them glued to the borders they're touching even if the parent or
91 they themselves are resized (unless this could not be done because a
92 small size and position are requested).

96 ion3 (20050322-1) unstable; urgency=low
98 * Those with custom configuration files should note that many exported toggle
99 functions were changed and renamed, and now accept a string parameter
100 incidating whether to toggle, set or unset the property.
102 - WClientwin.set_fullsreen (replaces WClientWin.toggle_fullscreen)
103 - WRegion.set_tagged (replaces WRegion.tag/untag/toggle_tag)
104 - WFrame.set_tabbar (replaces WFrame.toggle_tabbar)
105 - WFrame.set_shaded (replaces WFrame.toggle_shade)
106 - WFloatFrame.set_sticky (replaces WFloatFrame.toggle_sticky)
107 - WMPlex.l2_set_hidden (replaces WMPlex.l2_hide/show)
108 - mod_sp.set_shown(_on) (replaces mod_sp.toggle(_on))
109 - mod_dock.set_floating_shown_on (replaces mod_dock.toggle_floating_on)
110 - WRegion.set_activity (replaces WRegion.clear_activity and
111 WRegion.notify_activity)
113 For example, WRegion.set_tagged(_, 'toggle') should be used in place of
114 WRegion.toggle_tagged(_) now.

120 * The configuration files were renamed and changed a lot since 20040703-1,
