Notational conventions
======================
We have a window W that we are tracking events on. Focus
can be on the following classes of objects
None : defined by X protocol
PointerRoot : defined by X protocol
W : the window itself
Ancestor : An ancestor of W, including W's root window
Descendant : A descendant of W
Other: : A window that is neither an ancestor or
descendant of W
has_pointer(W): the pointer is in W or one of its descendants.
NotifyPointer events
====================
X sends FocusIn or FocusOut events to W with a detail of NotifyPointer
in the following transitions, when the pointer is inside W
Other => Ancestor: FocusIn
Ancestor => {Other,None}: FocusOut
Ancestor => PointerRoot: FocusOut, then FocusIn
{None,W,Descendant,Other} => PointerRoot: FocusIn
PointerRoot => Ancestor: FocusOut, then FocusIn
PointerRoot => {None,W,Descendant,Other} => FocusOut
[ Ignoring keyboard grabs for the moment ]
Basic focus tracking algorithm
==============================
Keystroke events are delivered within W if and only if one of two
predicates hold:
has_focus_window(W): F==W || F==Descendant
has_pointer_focus(W): (F==Ancestor || F==PointerRoot) && has_pointer(W)
These two conditions are mutually exclusive.
has_focus_window(W) is easy to track.
FocusIn: detail != NotifyInferior: Set has_focus_iwndow
FocusOut: detail != NotifyInferior: Clear has_focus_iwndow
has_pointer_focus(W) is harder to track.
We can separate out the transitions from !has_pointer_focus(W) to
has_pointer_focus(W) into four cases:
T1: [(F==W || F==Descendant) => F==Ancestor]; has_pointer(W)
T2: [(F==W || F==Descendant) => F==PointerRoot]; has_pointer(W)
T3: [(F==None || F==Other) => (F==PointerRoot || F==Ancestor)];
has_pointer(W)
T4: [!has_pointer(W) => has_pointer(W)]; (F==Ancestor || F==PointerRoot)
All of these can be tracked by watching events on W.
T1:, we get a FocusOut with a mode of Ancestor or Virtual
We need to separately track has_pointer(W) to distinguish
this from the case where we get these events and !has_pointer(W)
T2, T3: together these are exactly the cases where we get
FocusIn/NotifyPointer.
For T4, we get an EnterNotify with the focus flag set. An
EnterNotify with a focus flag set will also be sent if
F==W, so we have to to explicitly test for that case
using has_focus_window(W)
The transitions from has_pointer_focus(W) to !has_pointer_focus(W)
are exactly the opposite
F1: [(F==W || F==Descendant) <= F==Ancestor]; has_pointer(W)
F2: [(F==W || F==Descendant) <= F==PointerRoot]; has_pointer(W)
F3: [(F==None || F==Other) <= (F==PointerRoot || F==Ancestor)];
has_pointer(W)
F4: [!has_pointer(W) <= has_pointer(W)]; (F==Ancestor || F==PointerRoot)
And can be tracked in the same ways:
F1: we get a FocusIn with a mode of Ancestor or Virtual
We need to separately track has_pointer(W) to distinguish
this from the case we get these events and !has_pointer(W)
F2, F3: together these are exactly the cases where we get
FocusOut/NotifyPointer.
F4: we get an LeaveNotify with the focus flag set. An
LeaveNotify with a focus flag set will also be sent if
F==W, so we have to to explicitly test for that case
using has_focus_window(W).
Modifications for keyboard grabs
================================
The above algorithm ignores keyboard grabs, which also
generate focus events, and needs to be modified somewhat
to take keyboard grabs into effect. The basic idea
is that for has_pointer_focus(W)/has_window_focus(W) we track
them ignoring grabs and ungrabs, and then supplement
that with another predicate has_focus(W) which pays
attention to grabs and ungrabs.
Modification 1:
When tracking has_pointer_focus(W), ignore all Focus
events with a mode of NotifyGrab or NotifyUngrab.
Note that this means that with grabs, we don't perfectly.
track the delivery of keyboard events ... since we think
we are getting events in the case where
has_pointer_focus(W) && !(G == None || G==W || G==descendant)
But the X protocol doesn't provide sufficient information
to do this right... example:
F=Ancestor, G=None => F=Ancestor, G=Ancestor
We stop getting events, but receive no notification.
The case of no window manager and keyboard grabs is pretty
rare in any case.
Modification 2:
When tracking has_focus_window(W), ignore all Focus
events with a mode of NotifyGrab or NotifyUngrab.
Modification 3: instead of calculating focus as
has_focus_window(W) || has_pointer_focus(W)
Calculate it as
has_focus(W) || has_pointer_focus(W)
where has_focus(W) is defined as:
has_focus(W): F==W || F==Descendant || G=W
Tracking has_focus(W) is done by
FocusIn: detail != NotifyInferior, mode != NotifyWhileGrabbed:
set has_focus
FocusOut: detail != NotifyInferior, mode != NotifyWhileGrabbed:
clear has_focus
We still need to track has_focus_window(W) for the T4/F4
transitions.
