admin 96a9e88051 Back as a navigation request: App::on_back, BackAtRoot, NavStack and docs/navigation.md; renew the text-input enable on a press; fit an oversized window_size_hint to the screen
CI / build + test (push) Canceled after 0s
CI / cargo audit (push) Canceled after 0s
Three changes that came out of making the shell's back button work across Eydos the way it does on Android. The first is the feature; the other two are gaps it exposed.
Back is no longer Escape. forge turns its back gesture and button into the `XF86Back` key for the focused client, and ltk treated that key as an alias of `Escape`: close transient UI, else drop the focus and reach `on_key_with_modifiers`. That is "cancel", and it is all an app could get: nothing navigated, and nothing ever left the app. `XF86Back` is now a back request with its own order, one layer per request, top-most first: transient UI the runtime owns (open xdg-popup overlays, the built-in context menu, a text selection, the top-most pressable carrying an `on_escape`, i.e. a dialog's cancel), then text-input focus, then the new `App::on_back`, then `on_key_with_modifiers( XF86_Back )` so an app that bound the key itself keeps receiving it (crustace does, for its launcher), then `App::back_at_root`. The first step is what Escape already did; it moves out of `handle_key_escape` into `AppData::dismiss_transient` in the new `input/keyboard/back.rs`, which both paths call, so Escape behaves exactly as before. Text focus comes before the app on purpose: with a keyboard covering half the screen, back means "put the keyboard away", and navigating instead would discard what the user was typing. A compositor that folds its keyboard itself, as forge now does, only lets the next request through, which makes this step the fallback for the ones that do not.
`App::on_back` returns a `BackResponse`: `Message( msg )` with the message that undoes the top-most piece of navigation state, `Unhandled` at the root, or `Consumed` for a host whose back stack lives elsewhere and cannot be inspected ahead of time. `Consumed` exists for rustdroid: an Android app keeps its activities, fragments and back callbacks in its own code, so the host can only hand the request over. `App::back_at_root` then picks `Minimize` (the default), `Close` (through `on_close_requested`, which can still veto) or `Ignore`. Minimising is what a root activity does on Android since version 12 and what suits an app the user comes back to: a browser keeps its tabs, a call goes on. It is also the single point where the two stacks meet: the navigation stack belongs to the app's model, the task stack to the compositor, and `xdg_toplevel.set_minimized` is the one standard request between them, so no custom protocol carries navigation state out of the process and clients that are not ltk apps keep working. Only `ShellMode::Window` surfaces react at the root; a panel or a lock screen that minimised itself would be a bug.
Three consequences of back being a navigation request rather than input: the key leaves the default `App::key_repeats` set, since a held button would empty the whole stack; it is no longer reported through `App::on_raw_key`, so a host forwarding raw keys into an embedded web view or guest toolkit stops leaking it as a keystroke; and the mouse's back button (`BTN_SIDE` / `BTN_BACK`) enters through the same `handle_back`. `focused_text_input` becomes `pub( crate )` for the new module.
The answer is derived, not recorded, and that is the design decision worth writing down. The runtime keeps no navigation stack of its own. Its entries would have to be messages, which are not serialisable (the trait puts no serde bound on `Message`, by design), so it could not survive a relaunch; and a list of "things to undo" drifts the first time the user leaves a screen some other way, through its own close button or a link, leaving a back press that does nothing visible. An answer computed from the model cannot disagree with it. This is also what ties back to the session persistence added earlier: navigation state is both what `on_back` reads and what `save_state` should persist, and keeping the two the same is what makes back retrace the same places after a session restore or a crash, with nothing extra to serialise. Persist less and a restored app opens on the right screen with nothing behind it; persist more and it restores a menu the user had closed.
`NavStack<R>` packages that rule for the common case, an app made of screens. It is a plain value the app keeps in its model, never seen by the runtime: `push`, `pop`, `replace` (the sideways move back should not retrace), `pop_to_root`, `reset`, `current`, `current_mut`, `iter`, `depth`, `can_pop`, and `back( msg )`, which answers `on_back` directly. It is stored as a root plus the routes above it rather than as a `Vec`, so "never empty" holds by construction, including after deserialising an old or damaged state file, and it derives serde whenever `R` does. Six unit tests cover it, a serde round trip among them, and its rustdoc example is a complete `App` where one object answers `on_back`, `save_state` and `restore_state`.
Documentation, since the point is for app authors to take navigation state into account. The new `docs/navigation.md` is the reference: transient UI versus navigation state and the test that separates them, the back order and the reason for each step, why the answer is derived, how it lines up with session state, `NavStack`, apps that embed a web view (whose page history is navigation state too, to be persisted with ltk-webkit's `session_state`), hosts with a foreign back stack, the root, who owns which stack, and an author's checklist. `architecture.md` gains a group in the trait surface and a paragraph in the state patterns, `onboarding.md` and the README index link to it, and in the cookbook the multi-screen recipe now uses `NavStack` with `on_back` and persists the stack without serde, which keeps it compiled by the Markdown doctest harness (that harness links `ltk` alone, so the serde example in `navigation.md` is marked `ignore` and compiled as `NavStack`'s own doctest instead). `BackResponse`, `BackAtRoot` and `NavStack` are exported at the crate root and in the `ltk::window` facade.
Behaviour change for existing apps, also recorded under Changed: a window app that implements neither `on_back` nor the key is now minimised on back at its root, where nothing happened before; `BackAtRoot::Ignore` restores that. With a text input focused, back only drops the focus and the app sees the next request, where it used to get the key in the same press.
Renew the text-input enable on a press. Moving the focus between two text fields, or pressing the one already focused, only committed the refreshed content type on the existing `zwp_text_input_v3`. `activate_text_input` now sends `enable` first, as GTK does when a focused entry is clicked. A compositor that folded its on-screen keyboard while the field kept the focus, which is what back now does, has no other way to learn that the user wants it again: the text-input never stopped being active, so there was nothing for it to observe. ltk sends neither surrounding text nor a cursor rectangle, so the only state `enable` resets is the content type set right after it.
Fit an oversized `window_size_hint` to the screen. The hint is pinned as `min_size == max_size` before the first commit, when no output is known yet, so an app asking for a phone-shaped 720x1440 window on a 1080p desktop got a toplevel taller than the screen; rustdroid carried a dead branch that tried to avoid this from a screen size nothing could give it. The first configure is the earliest point the hint can be checked, and the protocol has the right input for it: `xdg_toplevel.configure_bounds`, exposed by sctk as `WindowConfigure::suggested_bounds` and ignored until now. The new `event_loop/window_fit.rs` holds `fit_within`, which scales a size down keeping its aspect ratio until it fits and leaves one that fits untouched (four unit tests), and `AppData::fit_size_hint`, run once behind the new `pending_size_hint_fit` latch: it uses the compositor's bounds when sent and otherwise 90 % of the first output's logical size, since panels and decorations are unknown from the client side. When the hint has to shrink, `min_size` (and `max_size` for a non-resizable window) is re-pinned to the fitted size, which is kept in `fitted_size_hint` and replaces the app's hint as the fallback for later configures that carry no size; without that the window would grow back on the next one. On that one configure the fitted size wins over the compositor's `new_size`, which was derived from the oversized pin. `App::window_size_hint` documents the rule with the worked example (720x1440 opens as 486x972 on a 1080p output).
The back order needs a live Wayland connection to exercise and has no test; the unit tests cover `NavStack` and `fit_within`.

admin 492553829e widgets, input: PatternGrid for pattern unlock, framed icon buttons, and text keys that bubble past a focused non-text widget; Debian 0.3.0-2
CI / build + test (push) Has been cancelled
CI / cargo audit (push) Has been cancelled
PatternGrid is a 3×3 drag widget for the unlock pattern. It is stateless: the app owns the visited nodes and passes them back in for drawing; a press or a drag that reaches a node within the snap radius fires on_node with the index, 0 to 8 row-major, and release fires on_release, so the crossing and minimum-length rules stay in the app. Geometry lives in widget/pattern_grid/theme.rs (size, dot and node radii, stroke width, snap radius, ring alpha), and the snap radius is resolved through the widget-scaling mode at layout time like the slider thumb (set_pattern_snap_px). The gesture machine reuses the slider's drag ownership: WidgetHandlers::is_drag_target covers both, so hover painting, pointer capture and release behave the same, and hover_affects_paint no longer special-cases sliders. The a11y tree maps it to GenericContainer, since a drawn gesture has no assistive equivalent and the app must offer another method. Exported as pattern_grid / PatternGrid, documented in widgets.md, theming.md and architecture.md, with tests for node centres, a wide rect, snapping, the builders, the handler snapshot and map_msg, and a Security tab in examples/widgets.rs that shows the drawn path.
Icon buttons given a width or height are framed keys: preferred_size honours the explicit size instead of the icon size, and drawing paints the variant's background, border and focus ring, shared with text buttons through paint_frame, then centres the icon. An icon button without a size keeps the circular hover overlay it had. This is what lets the PIN keypad's backspace and OK keys sit in the same circles as the digits.
Keyboard routing now matches what App::on_key documents. handle_key_default, Backspace, Delete and Space checked focused_idx.is_some() and sent the key into text insertion whenever any widget had focus, which is a no-op on a button, so a focused button or pressable swallowed typed characters. focused_text_input replaces the five copies of that check; characters, Backspace and Delete stay in a focused text input and reach the app otherwise, Return and Space still go to the focused widget's submit or press message when it has one, and the arrow, Home and End handlers use the same helper. The lockscreen relies on this to take PIN digits with its dots row focused.
debian/changelog: 0.3.0-2.

admin d4d7ee742e Bump to 0.2.0: SW/GLES paint parity, shared font resolution, FrameState refactor, docs and packaging fixes
CI / build + test (push) Has been cancelled
CI / cargo audit (push) Has been cancelled
Rendering parity (software ↔ GLES). The software backend now rounds glyph pen positions and image destinations to the nearest integer pixel, matching what the GLES backend already did; previously it truncated, so text and 1:1 images could land up to half a pixel off between the two backends and the bilinear sample read ~1 px softer than the source. Gradients and shadows are deliberately left unimplemented on the software backend, and the GLES multi-rect `glScissor` clip is left coarse on purpose: making it exact would need stencil bits the EGL config does not carry, or routing the partial-redraw path through the offscreen clip layer, which would break its `fill` / `clear_rects_transparent` scissor semantics. Adds software-backend pixel tests covering the snapping.
Font resolution unification. The system-font candidate chain, `find_font_opt` and `load_default_font_bytes` lived in two copies (`render/helpers` and `gles_render/helpers`) that had already diverged — one resolved through `find_font_opt`, the other inlined the candidate loop — and now live once in `system_fonts`. The two per-backend `OnceLock` default-font caches and `primary_handle` collapse into a single `system_fonts::default_handle`. Module docs and the `font_registry` caller are updated accordingly.
Shared image validation and rect inflation. `draw_image_data`'s dimension check and its one-line warning were byte-duplicated across both backends and are now `render::helpers::validate_rgba_dims`. The six manual symmetric `Rect`-inflate literals in the GLES primitives reuse the existing `Rect::expand`.
FrameState and DrawCtx de-duplication. The eleven `SurfaceState` fields the draw pass owns and threads through `DrawCtx` — `widget_rects`, the cursor / selection maps, the scroll state, `accessible_extras`, `prev_focused` / `prev_hovered` / `prev_pressed` — move into a `FrameState` sub-struct. The per-frame `build_draw_ctx` / `commit_draw_ctx` helpers can then borrow `&mut ss.frame`, disjoint from `ss.canvas` and `ss.pool`, so the four frame paths (software / GLES × full / partial) replace their duplicated `DrawCtx` construction and write-back with a single helper call each. A whole-`SurfaceState` borrow could not express this (partial borrows do not cross function boundaries), which is why the helpers take the sub-struct. `content_dirty` stays on `SurfaceState` — it is an invalidation flag, not frame state — and is reset at the call site.
rich_text tests. Adds the previously-missing `tests.rs` for the `RichText` widget: one hit rect per visual line a link spans (the widget's core invariant), the single-line and no-link cases, preferred-size growth with hard line breaks, and `map_msg` range preservation — all headless against a software `Canvas`, with line counts forced by `\n` so they do not depend on any system font's measured width.
Documentation. Fills the rustdoc gaps on the embedder-facing surface: `core::UiSurface` accessors, the `egl_context` public API, the `GlesCanvas` methods, `theme::typography` and `theme::error`, and the `RichText` / `Text` builders; adds a crate-level "Rendering backends" overview. `CHANGELOG.md` is added (0.2.0 / 0.1.0), and `docs/widgets.md` / `docs/cookbook.md` gain `rich_text`, `external`, and the CPU-draw / path-clip / externally-laid-out-tree recipes. `debian/changelog` gets the 0.2.0-1 entry. Private intra-doc links to `system_fonts` are demoted to code spans so `cargo doc` is warning-free.
Packaging. The `libltk-dev` registry crate shipped a `Cargo.toml` declaring the `lookup` bench while the `Makefile` install copied only `src/`, so Cargo refused to parse the manifest over a missing `benches/lookup.rs`; the install now ships `benches/` as well (the file alone satisfies the parse — criterion is a dev-dependency and is not resolved when the crate is consumed as a library). `Cargo.toml` is bumped to 0.2.0 to match the package version and the `ltk-0.2.0` registry directory.

admin a8bbd1e35c input/keyboard: fall through to App::on_key when the Enter dispatch target widget has no submit/press message
CI / build + test (push) Has been cancelled
CI / cargo audit (push) Has been cancelled
`handle_key_return` previously routed `Return` to either the focused or hovered widget's submit/press message and, only when neither index existed, fell through to `app.on_key_with_modifiers`. If a stale `hovered_idx` (left over from a prior screen) pointed at a widget that exists in the new `widget_rects` but exposes no submit or press handler, `target.is_some()` was true and the message-less dispatch silently swallowed the key — the `else` branch never ran and `App::on_key` never saw the keysym. This manifested in the eydos-loginmanager greeter as `Enter` on the Lock screen failing to fire `Message::Unlock` after a pause/resume cycle, until the user clicked something to refresh `hovered_idx`. Track whether the widget path actually pushed a message and, when it didn't, fall through to the app-level handler so the `Return` keysym still gets a chance to be interpreted by the application's `on_key`. No behaviour change when the focused/hovered widget does provide a `submit_msg` or `press_msg`.

admin 4aa3480b64 refactor: split every monolithic module into focused submodules
Each source file that had grown beyond a single concern is replaced by an identically-named directory containing focused submodules. `src/event_loop/mod.rs` (878 lines) becomes a directory with clipboard, context_menu, cursor_shape, drag, focus, handlers, invalidation, overlays_reconcile, repeat, run, surface, text_editing, and tooltip. Every widget, input handler, and theme component follows the same split. Public interfaces are unchanged — only the internal file layout moves.
image bumped from 0.25.2 to 0.25.9.
