- • the optional “absolute” method is now silently ignored in “move position”
- commands, where it did not cause a visible difference anyway
- • the _NET_WM_STATE_FOCUSED atom is now supported, resulting in e.g.
- GTK applications displaying the correct window decoration
- • moving fullscreen containers now moves them across outputs
- • floating windows can now be used with a geometry of e.g. +1+1, i.e.
- their top-left corner can be outside any output as long as the window
