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

293 * The fix_coordinates flag will translate the current coordinates (offset from
294 * the monitor position basically) to appropriate coordinates on the
295 * destination workspace.
296 * Not enabling this behaviour comes in handy when this function gets called by
297 * floating_maybe_reassign_ws, which will only "move" a floating window when it
298 * *already* changed its coordinates to a different output.
300 * The dont_warp flag disables pointer warping and will be set when this
301 * function is called while dragging a floating window.
303 * If ignore_focus is set, the container will be moved without modifying focus
306 * TODO: is there a better place for this function?

313 * Moves the given container to the currently focused container on the

317 void con_move_to_output(Con *con, Output *output, bool fix_coordinates);
320 * Moves the given container to the currently focused container on the
321 * visible workspace on the output specified by the given name.
322 * The current output for the container is used to resolve relative names
323 * such as left, right, up, down.

335 * Returns the orientation of the given container (for stacked containers,
336 * vertical orientation is used regardless of the actual orientation of the
340 orientation_t con_orientation(Con *con);
343 * Returns the container which will be focused next when the given container
344 * is not available anymore. Called in tree_close_internal and con_move_to_workspace
345 * to properly restore focus.
348 Con *con_next_focused(Con *con);
351 * Get the next/previous container in the specified orientation. This may
352 * travel up until it finds a container with suitable orientation.
355 Con *con_get_next(Con *con, char way, orientation_t orientation);
358 * Returns the focused con inside this client, descending the tree as far as
359 * possible. This comes in handy when attaching a con to a workspace at the
360 * currently focused position, for example.
363 Con *con_descend_focused(Con *con);
366 * Returns the focused con inside this client, descending the tree as far as
367 * possible. This comes in handy when attaching a con to a workspace at the
368 * currently focused position, for example.
370 * Works like con_descend_focused but considers only tiling cons.
373 Con *con_descend_tiling_focused(Con *con);
376 * Returns the leftmost, rightmost, etc. container in sub-tree. For example, if
377 * direction is D_LEFT, then we return the rightmost container and if direction
378 * is D_RIGHT, we return the leftmost container. This is because if we are
379 * moving D_LEFT, and thus want the rightmost container.
381 Con *con_descend_direction(Con *con, direction_t direction);
384 * Returns a "relative" Rect which contains the amount of pixels that need to
385 * be added to the original Rect to get the final position (obviously the
386 * amount of pixels for normal, 1pixel and borderless are different).
389 Rect con_border_style_rect(Con *con);
392 * Returns adjacent borders of the window. We need this if hide_edge_borders is
395 adjacent_t con_adjacent_borders(Con *con);
398 * Use this function to get a container’s border style. This is important
399 * because when inside a stack, the border style is always BS_NORMAL.
400 * For tabbed mode, the same applies, with one exception: when the container is
401 * borderless and the only element in the tabbed container, the border is not
404 * For children of a CT_DOCKAREA, the border style is always none.
407 int con_border_style(Con *con);
410 * Sets the given border style on con, correctly keeping the position/size of a
414 void con_set_border_style(Con *con, int border_style, int border_width);
417 * This function changes the layout of a given container. Use it to handle
418 * special cases like changing a whole workspace to stacked/tabbed (creates a
419 * new split container before).
422 void con_set_layout(Con *con, layout_t layout);
425 * This function toggles the layout of a given container. toggle_mode can be
426 * either 'default' (toggle only between stacked/tabbed/last_split_layout),
427 * 'split' (toggle only between splitv/splith) or 'all' (toggle between all
431 void con_toggle_layout(Con *con, const char *toggle_mode);
434 * Determines the minimum size of the given con by looking at its children (for
435 * split/stacked/tabbed cons). Will be called when resizing floating cons
438 Rect con_minimum_size(Con *con);
441 * Returns true if changing the focus to con would be allowed considering
442 * the fullscreen focus constraints. Specifically, if a fullscreen container or
443 * any of its descendants is focused, this function returns true if and only if
444 * focusing con would mean that focus would still be visible on screen, i.e.,
445 * the newly focused container would not be obscured by a fullscreen container.
447 * In the simplest case, if a fullscreen container or any of its descendants is
448 * fullscreen, this functions returns true if con is the fullscreen container
449 * itself or any of its descendants, as this means focus wouldn't escape the
450 * boundaries of the fullscreen container.
452 * In case the fullscreen container is of type CF_OUTPUT, this function returns
453 * true if con is on a different workspace, as focus wouldn't be obscured by
454 * the fullscreen container that is constrained to a different workspace.
456 * Note that this same logic can be applied to moving containers. If a
457 * container can be focused under the fullscreen focus constraints, it can also
458 * become a parent or sibling to the currently focused container.
461 bool con_fullscreen_permits_focusing(Con *con);
464 * Checks if the given container has an urgent child.
467 bool con_has_urgent_child(Con *con);
470 * Make all parent containers urgent if con is urgent or clear the urgent flag
471 * of all parent containers if there are no more urgent children left.
474 void con_update_parents_urgency(Con *con);
477 * Set urgency flag to the container, all the parent containers and the workspace.
480 void con_set_urgency(Con *con, bool urgent);
483 * Create a string representing the subtree under con.
486 char *con_get_tree_representation(Con *con);
489 * force parent split containers to be redrawn
492 void con_force_split_parents_redraw(Con *con);
495 * Returns the window title considering the current title format.
498 i3String *con_parse_title_format(Con *con);
501 * Swaps the two containers.
504 bool con_swap(Con *first, Con *second);
