From 0f11aa037ad8765abf66e0c90052f9e4c37d56db Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Weiser Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2020 22:10:04 +0100 Subject: commands: Add per-view shortcuts_inhibitor command Add a separate per-view shortcuts_inhibitor command that can be used with criteria to override the per-seat defaults. This allows to e.g. disable shortcuts inhibiting globally but enable it for specific, known-good virtualization and remote desktop software or, alternatively, to blacklist that one slightly broken piece of software that just doesn't seem to get it right but insists on trying. Add a flag to sway_view and handling logic in the input manager that respects that flag if configured but falls back to per-seat config otherwise. Add the actual command but with just enable and disable subcommands since there's no value in duplicating the per-seat activate/deactivate/toggle logic here. Split the inhibitor retrieval helper in two so we can use the backend half in the command to retrieve inhibitors for a specific surface and not just the currently focused one. Extend the manual page with documentation of the command and references to its per-seat sibling and usefulness with criteria.
