Detailed Description
toplevel surface
This interface defines an xdg_surface role which allows a surface to, among other things,
set window-like properties such as maximize, fullscreen, and minimize, set application-
specific metadata like title and id, and well as trigger user interactive operations such
as interactive resize and move.
Unmapping an xdg_toplevel means that the surface cannot be shown by the compositor until
it is explicitly mapped again. All active operations (e.g., move, resize) are canceled and
all attributes (e.g. title, state, stacking, ...) are discarded for an xdg_toplevel
surface when it is unmapped. The xdg_toplevel returns to the state it had right after
xdg_surface.get_toplevel. The client can re-map the toplevel by perfoming a commit without
any buffer attached, waiting for a configure event and handling it as usual (see
xdg_surface description).
Attaching a null buffer to a toplevel unmaps the surface.

Member Enumeration Documentation
enum wayland::proxy_t::wrapper_type [strong], [inherited]
Underlying wl_proxy type and properties of a proxy_t that affect construction,
destruction, and event handling
Enumerator
standard
C pointer is a standard type compatible with wl_proxy*. Events are dispatched and
it is destructed when the proxy_t is destructed. User data is set.
display
C pointer is a wl_display*. No events are dispatched, wl_display_disconnect is
called when the proxy_t is destructed. User data is set.
foreign
C pointer is a standard type compatible with wl_proxy*, but another library owns it
and it should not be touched in a way that could affect the operation of the other
library. No events are dispatched, wl_proxy_destroy is not called when the proxy_t
is destructed, user data is not touched. Consequently, there is no reference
counting for the proxy_t. Lifetime of such wrappers should preferably be short to
minimize the chance that the owning library decides to destroy the wl_proxy.
proxy_wrapper
C pointer is a wl_proxy* that was constructed with wl_proxy_create_wrapper. No
events are dispatched, wl_proxy_wrapper_destroy is called when the proxy_t is
destroyed. Reference counting is active. A reference to the proxy_t creating this
proxy wrapper is held to extend its lifetime until after the proxy wrapper is
destroyed.
Definition at line 115 of file wayland-client.hpp.
Member Function Documentation
wl_proxy* wayland::proxy_t::c_ptr () const [inherited]
Get a pointer to the underlying C struct.
Returns
The underlying wl_proxy wrapped by this proxy_t if it exists, otherwise an exception
is thrown
std::string wayland::proxy_t::get_class () const [inherited]
Get the interface name (class) of a proxy object.
Returns
The interface name of the object associated with the proxy
uint32_t wayland::proxy_t::get_id () const [inherited]
Get the id of a proxy object.
Returns
The id the object associated with the proxy
uint32_t wayland::proxy_t::get_version () const [inherited]
Get the protocol object version of a proxy object. Gets the protocol object version of a
proxy object, or 0 if the proxy was created with unversioned API.
A returned value of 0 means that no version information is available, so the caller must
make safe assumptions about the object's real version.
display_t will always return version 0.
Returns
The protocol object version of the proxy or 0
wrapper_type wayland::proxy_t::get_wrapper_type () const [inline], [inherited]
Get the type of a proxy object.

void xdg_toplevel_t::move (seat_t const & seat, uint32_t serial)
start an interactive move
Parameters
seat the wl_seat of the user event
serial the serial of the user event
Start an interactive, user-driven move of the surface.
This request must be used in response to some sort of user action like a button press, key
press, or touch down event. The passed serial is used to determine the type of interactive
move (touch, pointer, etc).
The server may ignore move requests depending on the state of the surface (e.g. fullscreen
or maximized), or if the passed serial is no longer valid.
If triggered, the surface will lose the focus of the device (wl_pointer, wl_touch, etc)
used for the move. It is up to the compositor to visually indicate that the move is taking
place, such as updating a pointer cursor, during the move. There is no guarantee that the
device focus will return when the move is completed.
Definition at line 1360 of file wayland-client-protocol-extra.cpp.
std::function< void()> & xdg_toplevel_t::on_close ()
surface wants to be closed The close event is sent by the compositor when the user wants
the surface to be closed. This should be equivalent to the user clicking the close button
in client-side decorations, if your application has any.
This is only a request that the user intends to close the window. The client may choose to
ignore this request, or show a dialog to ask the user to save their data, etc.
Definition at line 1419 of file wayland-client-protocol-extra.cpp.
std::function< void(int32_t, int32_t, array_t)> & xdg_toplevel_t::on_configure ()
suggest a surface change
Parameters
width
height
states
This configure event asks the client to resize its toplevel surface or to change its
state. The configured state should not be applied immediately. See xdg_surface.configure
for details.
The width and height arguments specify a hint to the window about how its surface should
be resized in window geometry coordinates. See set_window_geometry.
If the width or height arguments are zero, it means the client should decide its own
window dimension. This may happen when the compositor needs to configure the state of the
surface but doesn't have any information about any previous or expected dimension.
The states listed in the event specify how the width/height arguments should be
interpreted, and possibly how it should be drawn.
Clients must send an ack_configure in response to this event. See xdg_surface.configure
and xdg_surface.ack_configure for details.
Definition at line 1414 of file wayland-client-protocol-extra.cpp.
std::function< void(int32_t, int32_t)> & xdg_toplevel_t::on_configure_bounds ()
recommended window geometry bounds
Parameters
width
height
The configure_bounds event may be sent prior to a xdg_toplevel.configure event to
communicate the bounds a window geometry size is recommended to constrain to.
The passed width and height are in surface coordinate space. If width and height are 0, it
means bounds is unknown and equivalent to as if no configure_bounds event was ever sent
for this surface.
The bounds can for example correspond to the size of a monitor excluding any panels or
other shell components, so that a surface isn't created in a way that it cannot fit.
The bounds may change at any point, and in such a case, a new
xdg_toplevel.configure_bounds will be sent, followed by xdg_toplevel.configure and
xdg_surface.configure.

wayland::proxy_t::operator bool () const [inherited]
Check whether this wrapper actually wraps an object.
Returns
true if there is an underlying object, false if this wrapper is empty
bool wayland::proxy_t::operator!= (const proxy_t & right) const [inherited]
Check whether two wrappers refer to different objects.
bool wayland::proxy_t::operator== (const proxy_t & right) const [inherited]
Check whether two wrappers refer to the same object.
bool wayland::proxy_t::proxy_has_object () const [inherited]
Check whether this wrapper actually wraps an object.
Returns
true if there is an underlying object, false if this wrapper is empty
void wayland::proxy_t::proxy_release () [inherited]
Release the wrapped object (if any), making this an empty wrapper. Note that display_t
instances cannot be released this way. Attempts to do so are ignored.
void xdg_toplevel_t::resize (seat_t const & seat, uint32_t serial, xdg_toplevel_resize_edge
const & edges)
start an interactive resize
Parameters
seat the wl_seat of the user event
serial the serial of the user event
edges which edge or corner is being dragged
Start a user-driven, interactive resize of the surface.
This request must be used in response to some sort of user action like a button press, key
press, or touch down event. The passed serial is used to determine the type of interactive
resize (touch, pointer, etc).
The server may ignore resize requests depending on the state of the surface (e.g.
fullscreen or maximized).
If triggered, the client will receive configure events with the 'resize' state enum value
and the expected sizes. See the 'resize' enum value for more details about what is
required. The client must also acknowledge configure events using 'ack_configure'. After
the resize is completed, the client will receive another 'configure' event without the
resize state.
If triggered, the surface also will lose the focus of the device (wl_pointer, wl_touch,
etc) used for the resize. It is up to the compositor to visually indicate that the resize
is taking place, such as updating a pointer cursor, during the resize. There is no
guarantee that the device focus will return when the resize is completed.
The edges parameter specifies how the surface should be resized, and is one of the values
of the resize_edge enum. Values not matching a variant of the enum will cause a protocol
error. The compositor may use this information to update the surface position for example
when dragging the top left corner. The compositor may also use this information to adapt
its behavior, e.g. choose an appropriate cursor image.

void xdg_toplevel_t::set_app_id (std::string const & app_id)
set application ID
Parameters
app_id
Set an application identifier for the surface.
The app ID identifies the general class of applications to which the surface belongs. The
compositor can use this to group multiple surfaces together, or to determine how to launch
a new application.
For D-Bus activatable applications, the app ID is used as the D-Bus service name.
The compositor shell will try to group application surfaces together by their app ID. As a
best practice, it is suggested to select app ID's that match the basename of the
application's .desktop file. For example, 'org.freedesktop.FooViewer' where the .desktop
file is 'org.freedesktop.FooViewer.desktop'.
Like other properties, a set_app_id request can be sent after the xdg_toplevel has been
mapped to update the property.
See the desktop-entry specification [0] for more details on application identifiers and
how they relate to well-known D-Bus names and .desktop files.

void xdg_toplevel_t::set_fullscreen (output_t const & output)
set the window as fullscreen on an output
Parameters
output
Make the surface fullscreen.
After requesting that the surface should be fullscreened, the compositor will respond by
emitting a configure event. Whether the client is actually put into a fullscreen state is
subject to compositor policies. The client must also acknowledge the configure when
committing the new content (see ack_configure).
The output passed by the request indicates the client's preference as to which display it
should be set fullscreen on. If this value is NULL, it's up to the compositor to choose
which display will be used to map this surface.
If the surface doesn't cover the whole output, the compositor will position the surface in
the center of the output and compensate with with border fill covering the rest of the
output. The content of the border fill is undefined, but should be assumed to be in some
way that attempts to blend into the surrounding area (e.g. solid black).
If the fullscreened surface is not opaque, the compositor must make sure that other screen
content not part of the same surface tree (made up of subsurfaces, popups or similarly
coupled surfaces) are not visible below the fullscreened surface.
Definition at line 1396 of file wayland-client-protocol-extra.cpp.
void xdg_toplevel_t::set_max_size (int32_t width, int32_t height)
set the maximum size
Parameters
width
height
Set a maximum size for the window.
The client can specify a maximum size so that the compositor does not try to configure the
window beyond this size.
The width and height arguments are in window geometry coordinates. See
xdg_surface.set_window_geometry.
Values set in this way are double-buffered. They will get applied on the next commit.
The compositor can use this information to allow or disallow different states like
maximize or fullscreen and draw accurate animations.
Similarly, a tiling window manager may use this information to place and resize client
windows in a more effective way.
The client should not rely on the compositor to obey the maximum size. The compositor may
decide to ignore the values set by the client and request a larger size.
If never set, or a value of zero in the request, means that the client has no expected
maximum size in the given dimension. As a result, a client wishing to reset the maximum
size to an unspecified state can use zero for width and height in the request.
Requesting a maximum size to be smaller than the minimum size of a surface is illegal and
will result in a protocol error.
The width and height must be greater than or equal to zero. Using strictly negative values
for width and height will result in a protocol error.
Definition at line 1372 of file wayland-client-protocol-extra.cpp.
void xdg_toplevel_t::set_maximized ()
maximize the window Maximize the surface.
After requesting that the surface should be maximized, the compositor will respond by
emitting a configure event. Whether this configure actually sets the window maximized is
subject to compositor policies. The client must then update its content, drawing in the
configured state. The client must also acknowledge the configure when committing the new
content (see ack_configure).
It is up to the compositor to decide how and where to maximize the surface, for example
which output and what region of the screen should be used.
If the surface was already maximized, the compositor will still emit a configure event
with the 'maximized' state.
If the surface is in a fullscreen state, this request has no direct effect. It may alter
the state the surface is returned to when unmaximized unless overridden by the compositor.
Definition at line 1384 of file wayland-client-protocol-extra.cpp.
void xdg_toplevel_t::set_min_size (int32_t width, int32_t height)
set the minimum size
Parameters
width
height
Set a minimum size for the window.
The client can specify a minimum size so that the compositor does not try to configure the
window below this size.
The width and height arguments are in window geometry coordinates. See
xdg_surface.set_window_geometry.
Values set in this way are double-buffered. They will get applied on the next commit.
The compositor can use this information to allow or disallow different states like
maximize or fullscreen and draw accurate animations.
Similarly, a tiling window manager may use this information to place and resize client
windows in a more effective way.
The client should not rely on the compositor to obey the minimum size. The compositor may
decide to ignore the values set by the client and request a smaller size.
If never set, or a value of zero in the request, means that the client has no expected
minimum size in the given dimension. As a result, a client wishing to reset the minimum
size to an unspecified state can use zero for width and height in the request.
Requesting a minimum size to be larger than the maximum size of a surface is illegal and
will result in a protocol error.
The width and height must be greater than or equal to zero. Using strictly negative values
for width and height will result in a protocol error.

void xdg_toplevel_t::set_minimized ()
set the window as minimized Request that the compositor minimize your surface. There is no
way to know if the surface is currently minimized, nor is there any way to unset
minimization on this surface.
If you are looking to throttle redrawing when minimized, please instead use the
wl_surface.frame event for this, as this will also work with live previews on windows in
Alt-Tab, Expose or similar compositor features.
Definition at line 1408 of file wayland-client-protocol-extra.cpp.
void xdg_toplevel_t::set_parent (xdg_toplevel_t const & parent)
set the parent of this surface
Parameters
parent
Set the 'parent' of this surface. This surface should be stacked above the parent surface
and all other ancestor surfaces.
Parent windows should be set on dialogs, toolboxes, or other 'auxiliary' surfaces, so that
the parent is raised when the dialog is raised.
Setting a null parent for a child window removes any parent-child relationship for the
child. Setting a null parent for a window which currently has no parent is a no-op.
If the parent is unmapped then its children are managed as though the parent of the now-
unmapped parent has become the parent of this surface. If no parent exists for the now-
unmapped parent then the children are managed as though they have no parent surface.
Definition at line 1336 of file wayland-client-protocol-extra.cpp.
void wayland::proxy_t::set_queue (event_queue_t queue) [inherited]
Assign a proxy to an event queue.
Parameters
queue The event queue that will handle this proxy
Assign proxy to event queue. Events coming from proxy will be queued in queue instead of
the display's main queue.
See also: display_t::dispatch_queue().
void xdg_toplevel_t::set_title (std::string const & title)
set surface title
Parameters
title
Set a short title for the surface.
This string may be used to identify the surface in a task bar, window list, or other user
interface elements provided by the compositor.
The string must be encoded in UTF-8.
Definition at line 1342 of file wayland-client-protocol-extra.cpp.
void xdg_toplevel_t::show_window_menu (seat_t const & seat, uint32_t serial, int32_t x,
int32_t y)
show the window menu
Parameters
seat the wl_seat of the user event
serial the serial of the user event
x the x position to pop up the window menu at
y the y position to pop up the window menu at
Clients implementing client-side decorations might want to show a context menu when right-
clicking on the decorations, giving the user a menu that they can use to maximize or
minimize the window.
This request asks the compositor to pop up such a window menu at the given position,
relative to the local surface coordinates of the parent surface. There are no guarantees
as to what menu items the window menu contains.
This request must be used in response to some sort of user action like a button press, key
press, or touch down event.
Definition at line 1354 of file wayland-client-protocol-extra.cpp.
void xdg_toplevel_t::unset_fullscreen ()
unset the window as fullscreen Make the surface no longer fullscreen.
After requesting that the surface should be unfullscreened, the compositor will respond by
emitting a configure event. Whether this actually removes the fullscreen state of the
client is subject to compositor policies.
Making a surface unfullscreen sets states for the surface based on the following: the
state(s) it may have had before becoming fullscreen any state(s) decided by the compositor
any state(s) requested by the client while the surface was fullscreen
The compositor may include the previous window geometry dimensions in the configure event,
if applicable.
The client must also acknowledge the configure when committing the new content (see
ack_configure).
Definition at line 1402 of file wayland-client-protocol-extra.cpp.
void xdg_toplevel_t::unset_maximized ()
unmaximize the window Unmaximize the surface.
After requesting that the surface should be unmaximized, the compositor will respond by
emitting a configure event. Whether this actually un-maximizes the window is subject to
compositor policies. If available and applicable, the compositor will include the window
geometry dimensions the window had prior to being maximized in the configure event. The
client must then update its content, drawing it in the configured state. The client must
also acknowledge the configure when committing the new content (see ack_configure).
It is up to the compositor to position the surface after it was unmaximized; usually the
position the surface had before maximizing, if applicable.
If the surface was already not maximized, the compositor will still emit a configure event
without the 'maximized' state.
If the surface is in a fullscreen state, this request has no direct effect. It may alter
the state the surface is returned to when unmaximized unless overridden by the compositor.
