<description summary="Protocol to describe output regions">
|
||
This protocol aims at describing outputs in a way which is more in line
|
||
with the concept of an output on desktop oriented systems.
|
||
|
||
Some information are more specific to the concept of an output for
|
||
a desktop oriented system and may not make sense in other applications,
|
||
such as IVI systems for example.
|
||
|
||
Typically, the global compositor space on a desktop system is made of
|
||
a contiguous or overlapping set of rectangular regions.
|
||
|
||
Some of the information provided in this protocol might be identical
|
||
to their counterparts already available from wl_output, in which case
|
||
the information provided by this protocol should be preferred to their
|
||
equivalent in wl_output. The goal is to move the desktop specific
|
||
concepts (such as output location within the global compositor space,
|
||
the connector name and types, etc.) out of the core wl_output protocol.
|
||
|
||
Warning! The protocol described in this file is experimental and
|
||
backward incompatible changes may be made. Backward compatible
|
||
changes may be added together with the corresponding interface
|
||
version bump.
|
||
Backward incompatible changes are done by bumping the version
|
||
number in the protocol and interface names and resetting the
|
||
interface version. Once the protocol is to be declared stable,
|
||
the 'z' prefix and the version number in the protocol and
|
||
interface names are removed and the interface version number is
|
||
reset.

The position event describes the location of the wl_output within

|

The logical_position event is sent after creating an xdg_output

|
||
of the output changes within the global compositor space.

<event name="logical_size">
|

<description summary="size of the output in the global compositor space">
|
||
The logical_size event describes the size of the output in the
|
||
global compositor space.
|
||
|
||
For example, a surface without any buffer scale, transformation
|
||
nor rotation set, with the size matching the logical_size will
|
||
have the same size as the corresponding output when displayed.
|
||
|
||
Most regular Wayland clients should not pay attention to the
|
||
logical size and would rather rely on xdg_shell interfaces.
|
||
|
||
Some clients such as Xwayland, however, need this to configure
|
||
their surfaces in the global compositor space as the compositor
|
||
may apply a different scale from what is advertised by the output
|
||
scaling property (to achieve fractional scaling, for example).
|
||
|
||
For example, for a wl_output mode 3840×2160 and a scale factor 2:
|
||
|
||
- A compositor not scaling the surface buffers will advertise a
|
||
logical size of 3840×2160,
|
||
|
||
- A compositor automatically scaling the surface buffers will
|
||
advertise a logical size of 1920×1080,
|
||
|
||
- A compositor using a fractional scale of 1.5 will advertise a
|
||
logical size of 2560×1440.
|
||
|
||
For example, for a wl_output mode 1920×1080 and a 90 degree rotation,
|
||
the compositor will advertise a logical size of 1080x1920.
|
||
|
||
The logical_size event is sent after creating an xdg_output
|
||
(see xdg_output_manager.get_xdg_output) and whenever the logical
|
||
size of the output changes, either as a result of a change in the
|
||
applied scale or because of a change in the corresponding output
|
||
mode(see wl_output.mode) or transform (see wl_output.transform).

For objects version 3 onwards, this event is deprecated. Compositors

<event name="name" since="2">
|

<description summary="name of this output">
|
||
Many compositors will assign names to their outputs, show them to the
|
||
user, allow them to be configured by name, etc. The client may wish to
|
||
know this name as well to offer the user similar behaviors.
|
||
|
||
The naming convention is compositor defined, but limited to
|
||
alphanumeric characters and dashes (-). Each name is unique among all
|
||
wl_output globals, but if a wl_output global is destroyed the same name
|
||
may be reused later. The names will also remain consistent across
|
||
sessions with the same hardware and software configuration.
|
||
|
||
Examples of names include 'HDMI-A-1', 'WL-1', 'X11-1', etc. However, do
|
||
not assume that the name is a reflection of an underlying DRM
|
||
connector, X11 connection, etc.
|
||
|
||
The name event is sent after creating an xdg_output (see
|
||
xdg_output_manager.get_xdg_output). This event is only sent once per
|
||
xdg_output, and the name does not change over the lifetime of the
|
||
wl_output global.

<description summary="human-readable description of this output">
|
||
Many compositors can produce human-readable descriptions of their
|
||
outputs. The client may wish to know this description as well, to
|
||
communicate the user for various purposes.
|
||
|
||
The description is a UTF-8 string with no convention defined for its
|
||
contents. Examples might include 'Foocorp 11" Display' or 'Virtual X11
|
||
output via :1'.
|
||
|
||
The description event is sent after creating an xdg_output (see
|
||
xdg_output_manager.get_xdg_output) and whenever the description
|
||
changes. The description is optional, and may not be sent at all.
|
||
|
||
For objects of version 2 and lower, this event is only sent once per
|
||
xdg_output, and the description does not change over the lifetime of
|
||
the wl_output global.
