03:41 <NikhilSingh[m]1> hellmouth: Thanks for the help mate

03:41 <NikhilSingh[m]1> Anyone how can I stop the system from going to suspend or idle state while downloading or watching movie? (Using sway idle)

03:46 <leon-p> NikhilSingh[m]1: applications should inhibit the idling when they think that the user is still "actively" sitting in front of the screen despite not inputting anything, however I don't know how many things applications actually implement it. I think mpv does, not sure though.

03:51 <NikhilSingh[m]1> So it should be handled by applications .....

03:51 <NikhilSingh[m]1> For me my system goes to suspend if i am on a meet or m watching a movie online.

03:59 <NikhilSingh[m]1> Will river have directional focus switching??

03:59 <NikhilSingh[m]1> I saw a pr but is not merged?

03:59 <leon-p> If you are using waybar, it also has a module that allows you to "switch off" idling

04:00 <leon-p> river has many unmerged PRs

04:00 <leon-p> see my comment on the PR for more information

04:15 <NikhilSingh[m]1> Yeah just seen ur comment so putted on IRC 😅

04:16 <NikhilSingh[m]1> In the case of idle i observed that applications those are using xwayland are unable to inhibit idle state.

04:16 <NikhilSingh[m]1> Ig chrome uses xwayland

04:28 <NickH> leon-p: Ooh, waybar-idle-inhibitor. Didn't know about that. Thanks.

04:29 <NickH> Now if they'd just hurry up and release 0.9.14 so I can have river/mode ...

04:34 <leon-p> NikhilSingh[m]1: well, Xwayland windows will alsways be treated as second class citizens. That's just how it is.

05:41 <spyroboy> Chrome should be native wayland these days.

09:58 <ifreund> depends how out of date your distro is I guess... though they should really try and keep browsers as up to date as possible to stay ahead of the continuous stream of RCE vulnerabilities

10:00 <spyroboy> lol

10:00 <spyroboy> rce/ip

10:31 <leon-p> do we have an issue already tracking the issue (heh) that moving a view to a different output should probably apply constraints?

10:32 <leon-p> constantly hitting that now that I am back to using my workstation again

10:33 <ifreund> leon-p: what do you mean by "apply constraints" here?

10:34 <ifreund> do you mean constrain the view to the dimensions of the output if it is floating and larger than the output?

10:34 <leon-p> yep, that one

10:35 <leon-p> and since I have a weird setup of an ultra-wide next to a 4:3 display, I also have the issue that sometimes moving floating views from the larger to the smaller makes them disappear, as they are outside the outputs actual size

10:36 <leon-p> trying to move them snaps them back to where they should be, as expected

10:36 <ifreund> shouldn't be too hard to implemented, just a bit of code at the end of View.sendToOutput()

10:36 <ifreund> I'd be happy to merge a patch

10:38 <leon-p> sure, I'll see if I find some time today

14:38 <xaltsc> Hey, I've been working on a rust library/cli tool for Rust over the past few weeks https://git.sr.ht/~xaltsc/rivertools . So far, it doesn't do anything interesting besides printing River's event, but maybe the code is clearer/more extendable/more generic than that of snakedye's from which I took inspiration ? Anyways, I'd love to hear criticism on this draft.
