This version is considered stable. All users of i3 are +strongly encouraged to upgrade. + +The biggest change in this release is the merge of the i3-gaps fork. +The i3-gaps fork was the most popular fork of i3, adding the option to +show gaps between tiled windows and/or the screen edges. + +See https://i3wm.org/docs/userguide.html#gaps for more details. + +Instead of maintaining two versions of i3 (both upstream and downstream, +meaning in Linux distributions and other package collections), +we concluded it would be better for everyone to merge this feature. + +For users of i3: gaps are off by default, so there is no change in behavior. +For users of i3-gaps: the configuration is compatible, so you can switch +to i3 v4.22 or newer, without any changes in behavior. + +Thanks to Ingo Bürk for maintaining i3-gaps for many years, +for becoming a core i3 maintainer and for helping make this merge possible! + + ┌────────────────────────────┐ + │ Changes in i3 v4.22 │ + └────────────────────────────┘ + + • i3bar: bar { padding } config directive now implemented (supports bar { height } from i3-gaps) + • i3-dmenu-desktop: allow more than one --entry-type with the --show-duplicates flag + • You can now enable gaps using the gaps config directive and/or command + • colors now support an optional alpha value at the end (#rrggbbaa) + • the hide_edge_borders option now supports the smart_no_gaps keyword + • Support nonprimary keyword for outputs + • add "mode" field in binding event + + ┌────────────────────────────┐ + │ Bugfixes │ + └────────────────────────────┘ + + • gaps: workspace gaps assignments are no longer order-dependent + • Fix compliance to _MOTIF_WM_HINTS spec when all decorations are set + • The floating_from and tiling_from criteria now also work in commands + + ┌────────────────────────────┐ + │ Thanks! │ + └────────────────────────────┘ + +Thanks for testing, bugfixes, discussions and everything I forgot go out to: + + bodea, Demian, Erich Heine, Ingo Bürk, Matias Goldfeld, Orestis Floros, + Tudor Brindus + +-- Michael Stapelberg, 2023-01-02 |
