This is i3 v4.16. This version is considered stable. All users of i3 are
strongly encouraged to upgrade.
This release contains a number of assorted fixes and improvements across pretty
much all individual components of i3.
┌────────────────────────────┐
│ Changes in i3 v4.16 │
└────────────────────────────┘

• docs/ipc: add window_properties to tree node
• docs/layout-saving: clarify JSON non-compliance
• docs/userguide: clarify X resource value format
• docs/userguide: fix move_to_outputs link
• docs/userguide: link workspace_auto_back_and_forth from workspace

• man/*: fix title markers (for asciidoctor)
• man/i3-msg.man: add get_config and send_tick
• ipc: kill misbehaving subscribed clients instead of hanging
• ipc: introduce the sync IPC command for synchronization with i3bar
• ipc: scratchpad show now returns correct success
• ipc: send_tick now sets the already-documented “first” field
• i3bar-protocol: add modifiers to events sent by i3bar
• dump-asy: use Pod::Usage for --help and perldoc
• dump-asy: introduce -gv flag to disable opening ghostview
• dump-asy: introduce -save flag to store the rendered tree in a file
• dump-asy: add marks
• dump-asy: include floating containers
• i3bar: add --verbose flag
• i3bar: make modifier accept combinations (like floating_modifier)
• i3-config-wizard: add --modifier flag to allow for headless config
• i3-config-wizard: support startup notifications
• i3-msg: only print input + error position if they are set
• i3-msg: check replies also in quiet mode (-q)
• i3-msg: add support for the SUBSCRIBE message type
• i3-nagbar: support startup notifications
• i3-nagbar: add option for button that runs commands without a terminal
• i3-save-tree: exclude unsupported transient_for property
• i3-sensible-terminal: add alacritty
• i3-sensible-terminal: add hyper
• introduce strip_workspace_name alongside strip_workspace_numbers
• introduce title_align config directive
• “border toggle” now accepts an optional pixel argument
• “resize set” now interprets 0 as “no change”
• “resize set” now accepts the “width” and “height” keywords
• “resize” with pixel values now works for tiling containers
• the optional “absolute” method is now silently ignored in “move position”
commands, where it did not cause a visible difference anyway
• the _NET_WM_STATE_FOCUSED atom is now supported, resulting in e.g.
GTK applications displaying the correct window decoration
• moving fullscreen containers now moves them across outputs
• floating windows can now be used with a geometry of e.g. +1+1, i.e.
their top-left corner can be outside any output as long as the window
is contained partially by one
• prefer floating fullscreen containers when switching focus
• moving containers to an active workspace no longer changes focus
• the rename workspace command no longer confuses directions (e.g. “left”)
with output names
• prefer $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/i3/config over ~/.i3/config
• allow multiple assignments of workspaces to output
• respect maximum size in WM_NORMAL_HINTS
• reject requests for WM_STATE_ICONIC, which avoids e.g. wine
applications being stuck in paused state
• a number of code refactorings and cleanups, some of which tool-assisted
┌────────────────────────────┐
│ Bugfixes │
└────────────────────────────┘
• build: fix static linking
• i3bar: fix various memory leaks
• i3bar: fix crash when no status_command is provided
• i3bar: fix chopping the first character on the very left when using the
full width of the output
• i3bar: fix relative_x and width properties of click events
• i3bar: fix the tray disappearing in some cases when using "tray_output"
• fix various memory leaks and memory correctness issues
• refocus focused window on FOCUS_IN events for the root window. This
fixes incorrect behavior with steam and some tk apps
• fix focus bugs when moving unfocused containers
• fix incorrect urgent window state edge case
• moving an unfocused container from inside a split container to another
workspace doesn’t focus siblings
• toggling and killing floating windows now maintains focus order
• don’t incorrectly focus siblings when scrolling on window decorations
• fix crash when moving a container to a marked workspace
• fix swap when first is behind a fullscreen window
• fix crash when renaming an existing workspace to a name assigned to the
focused output
• reframe swallowed windows if depth doesn’t match
• use detectable autorepeat so that --release bindings are run only when
the key is actually released (and not when it is repeated)
• fix border artifacts when moving windows
• correctly handle bindings for the same mod key with and without --release
• reset B_UPON_KEYRELEASE_IGNORE_MODS bindings when switching modes
• fix height offset calculation in pango text drawing
• fix detection of libiconv on OpenBSD
• free workspace assignments on reload
• fix mouse position at startup with multiple outputs
• no longer allow dragging global fullscreen floating containers
• fix rendering artifacts with global fullscreen containers
• fix disabling floating for scratchpad windows
• fix a crash when renaming an unfocused empty workspace matching an
assignment
• ensure containers have a size of at least 1px after resize
• permit invalid UTF-8 in layout JSON files (e.g. for window titles)
• correct invalid UTF-8 characters in window and container titles
• fix a crash when moving to a child of a floating container
• fix a crash when matching __focused__ with no window open
• fix no_focus when only using floating windows
• fix max_aspect calculation
• moving an unfocused container from another output now maintains
the correct focus order
• don’t change focus order when swapping containers
• correctly update _NET_CURRENT_DESKTOP when moving containers between outputs
using the directional move command
• don’t produce move events after attempting to directionally move a container
towards a direction it can’t go
• fix sticky focus when switching to workspace on different output
