c2: remove type specifiers 
Same logic as the format specifiers, we just use what the X server
reports, asking the user for the type is just going to be confusing.

Unreleased

New features

  • Allow corner-radius-rules to override corner-radius = 0. Previously setting corner radius to 0 globally disables rounded corners. (#1170)

Notable changes

  • Marginally improve performance when resizing/opening/closing windows. (#1190)
  • Type and format specifiers are no longer used in rules. These specifiers are what you put after the colon (':') in rules, e.g. the :32c in "_GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS@:32c". Now this information is ignored and the property is matched regardless of format or type.

Dependency changes

  • picom now optionally depends on rtkit at runtime to give itself realtime scheduling priority.

v11.2 (2024-Feb-13)

Build changes

  • picom now depends on libepoxy for OpenGL symbol management.

Bug fixes

  • Workaround a NVIDIA problem that causes high CPU usage after suspend/resume (#1172, #1168)
  • Fix building on OpenBSD (#1189, #1188)
  • Fix occasional freezes (#1040, #1145, #1166)
  • Fix corner-radius-rules not applying sometimes (#1177)
  • Fix window shader not having an effect when frame opacity is enabled (#1174)
  • Fix binding root pixmap in case of depth mismatch (#984)

v11.1 (2024-Jan-28)

Bug fixes

  • Fix missing fading on window close for some window managers. (#704)

v11 (2024-Jan-20)

Build changes

  • Due to some caveats discovered related to setting the CAP_SYS_NICE capability, it is now recommended to NOT set this capability for picom.

Deprecations

  • Uses of --sw-opti, and --respect-prop-shadow are now hard errors.
  • -F has been removed completely. It was deprecated before the picom fork.

v11-rc1 (2024-Jan-14)

Notable features

  • picom now uses dithering to prevent banding. Banding is most notable when using a strong background blur. (#952)
  • Frame pacing. picom uses present feedback information to schedule new frames when it makes sense to do so. This improves latency, and replaces the glFlush and GL_MaxFramesAllowed=1 hacks we used to do for NVIDIA. (#968 #1156)
  • Some missing features have been implemented for the EGL backend (#1004 #1007)

Bug fixes

  • Many memory/resource leak fixes thanks to @absolutelynothelix . (#977 #978 #979 #980 #982 #985 #992 #1009 #1022)
  • Fix tiling of wallpaper. (#1002)
  • Fix some blur artifacts (#1095)
  • Fix shadow color for transparent shadows (#1124)
  • Don't spam logs when another compositor is running (#1104)
  • Fix rounded corners showing as black with the xrender backend (#1003)
  • Fix blur with rounded windows (#950)

Build changes

  • Dependency pcre has been replaced by pcre2.
  • New dependency xcb-util.
  • xinerama is no longer used.
  • picom now tries to give itself a real-time scheduling priority. Please consider giving picom the CAP_SYS_NICE capability when packaging it.

Deprecations

  • The kawase blur method is removed. Note this is just an alias to the dual_kawase method, which is still available. (#1102)
