86 * Gets the output container (first container with CT_OUTPUT in hierarchy) this
90 Con *con_get_output(Con *con);
93 * Gets the workspace container this node is on.
96 Con *con_get_workspace(Con *con);
99 * Searches parenst of the given 'con' until it reaches one with the specified

219 * Attaches the given container to the given parent. This happens when moving
220 * a container or when inserting a new container at a specific place in the
223 * ignore_focus is to just insert the Con at the end (useful when creating a
224 * new split container *around* some containers, that is, detaching and

231 * Detaches the given container from its current parent
234 void con_detach(Con *con);
237 * Updates the percent attribute of the children of the given container. This
238 * function needs to be called when a window is added or removed from a
242 void con_fix_percent(Con *con);
245 * Toggles fullscreen mode for the given container. Fullscreen mode will not be
246 * entered when there already is a fullscreen container on this workspace.

267 * The fix_coordinates flag will translate the current coordinates (offset from
268 * the monitor position basically) to appropriate coordinates on the
269 * destination workspace.
270 * Not enabling this behaviour comes in handy when this function gets called by
271 * floating_maybe_reassign_ws, which will only "move" a floating window when it
272 * *already* changed its coordinates to a different output.
274 * The dont_warp flag disables pointer warping and will be set when this
275 * function is called while dragging a floating window.
277 * If ignore_focus is set, the container will be moved without modifying focus
280 * TODO: is there a better place for this function?

301 * vertical orientation is used regardless of the actual orientation of the
305 orientation_t con_orientation(Con *con);
308 * Returns the container which will be focused next when the given container
309 * is not available anymore. Called in tree_close_internal and con_move_to_workspace
310 * to properly restore focus.
313 Con *con_next_focused(Con *con);
316 * Get the next/previous container in the specified orientation. This may
317 * travel up until it finds a container with suitable orientation.
320 Con *con_get_next(Con *con, char way, orientation_t orientation);
323 * Returns the focused con inside this client, descending the tree as far as
324 * possible. This comes in handy when attaching a con to a workspace at the
325 * currently focused position, for example.
328 Con *con_descend_focused(Con *con);
331 * Returns the focused con inside this client, descending the tree as far as
332 * possible. This comes in handy when attaching a con to a workspace at the
333 * currently focused position, for example.
335 * Works like con_descend_focused but considers only tiling cons.
338 Con *con_descend_tiling_focused(Con *con);
341 * Returns the leftmost, rightmost, etc. container in sub-tree. For example, if
342 * direction is D_LEFT, then we return the rightmost container and if direction
343 * is D_RIGHT, we return the leftmost container. This is because if we are
344 * moving D_LEFT, and thus want the rightmost container.
346 Con *con_descend_direction(Con *con, direction_t direction);
349 * Returns a "relative" Rect which contains the amount of pixels that need to
350 * be added to the original Rect to get the final position (obviously the
351 * amount of pixels for normal, 1pixel and borderless are different).
354 Rect con_border_style_rect(Con *con);
357 * Returns adjacent borders of the window. We need this if hide_edge_borders is
360 adjacent_t con_adjacent_borders(Con *con);
363 * Use this function to get a container’s border style. This is important
364 * because when inside a stack, the border style is always BS_NORMAL.
365 * For tabbed mode, the same applies, with one exception: when the container is
366 * borderless and the only element in the tabbed container, the border is not
369 * For children of a CT_DOCKAREA, the border style is always none.
372 int con_border_style(Con *con);
375 * Sets the given border style on con, correctly keeping the position/size of a
379 void con_set_border_style(Con *con, int border_style, int border_width);
382 * This function changes the layout of a given container. Use it to handle
383 * special cases like changing a whole workspace to stacked/tabbed (creates a
384 * new split container before).
387 void con_set_layout(Con *con, layout_t layout);
390 * This function toggles the layout of a given container. toggle_mode can be
391 * either 'default' (toggle only between stacked/tabbed/last_split_layout),
392 * 'split' (toggle only between splitv/splith) or 'all' (toggle between all
396 void con_toggle_layout(Con *con, const char *toggle_mode);
399 * Determines the minimum size of the given con by looking at its children (for
400 * split/stacked/tabbed cons). Will be called when resizing floating cons
403 Rect con_minimum_size(Con *con);
406 * Returns true if changing the focus to con would be allowed considering
407 * the fullscreen focus constraints. Specifically, if a fullscreen container or
408 * any of its descendants is focused, this function returns true if and only if
409 * focusing con would mean that focus would still be visible on screen, i.e.,
410 * the newly focused container would not be obscured by a fullscreen container.
412 * In the simplest case, if a fullscreen container or any of its descendants is
413 * fullscreen, this functions returns true if con is the fullscreen container
414 * itself or any of its descendants, as this means focus wouldn't escape the
415 * boundaries of the fullscreen container.
417 * In case the fullscreen container is of type CF_OUTPUT, this function returns
418 * true if con is on a different workspace, as focus wouldn't be obscured by
419 * the fullscreen container that is constrained to a different workspace.
421 * Note that this same logic can be applied to moving containers. If a
422 * container can be focused under the fullscreen focus constraints, it can also
423 * become a parent or sibling to the currently focused container.
426 bool con_fullscreen_permits_focusing(Con *con);
429 * Checks if the given container has an urgent child.
432 bool con_has_urgent_child(Con *con);
435 * Make all parent containers urgent if con is urgent or clear the urgent flag
436 * of all parent containers if there are no more urgent children left.
439 void con_update_parents_urgency(Con *con);
442 * Set urgency flag to the container, all the parent containers and the workspace.
445 void con_set_urgency(Con *con, bool urgent);
448 * Create a string representing the subtree under con.
451 char *con_get_tree_representation(Con *con);
454 * force parent split containers to be redrawn
457 void con_force_split_parents_redraw(Con *con);
460 * Returns the window title considering the current title format.
463 i3String *con_parse_title_format(Con *con);
