Pango rounds glyph position and widths to nearest integer, which leads
to font dimensions jumping around when rendering with a scale, causing
text geometry to jump around when changing scale. This is disturbing
when text buffers change scale, and also mean that the text geometry
calculations in sway_text_node are incorrect.
Disable this rounding to make the geometry stable.
Use pango to parse font configuration early, and reject the command as
invalid if the value is invalid for pango. Since we're already parsing
the font into a `PangoFontDescription`, keep that instance around and
avoid re-parsing the font each time we render text.

Prior to 62d90a8e, titlebar's font height (and other related values)
would change any time any titlebar's content changed, so these values
were recalculated each time any titlebar's content changed (or a new
titlebar was created).
However, since the above was merge, these values no longer change so
often and we only need to recalculate them when the configured font
changes (and stop calling `config_update_font_height` each time
titlebars are rendered).
This commit removes all the unecessary calls to this function and avoids
all those unecessary calculations. Whenever the font strays from the
default value, the `font` command is called, and it calls
`config_update_font_height`, which is enough to keep the value always up
to date.
I've also added a default value to the `font_baseline` config, since
otherwise that's zero for setups that don't explicitly specify a font.
Use fixed titlebar heights. The default height is calculated based on
font metrics for the configured font and current locale.
Some testing with titles with emoji and CJK characters (which are
substantially higher in my setup) shows that the titlebars retain their
initial value, text does shift up or down, and all titlebars always
remain aligned.
Also drop some also now-unecessary title_height calculations.
Makes also needed to be updated, since they should be positioned with
the same rules.
This commit mostly duplicates the wlr_log functions, although
with a sway_* prefix. (This is very similar to PR #2009.)
However, the logging function no longer needs to be replaceable,
so sway_log_init's second argument is used to set the exit
callback for sway_abort.
wlr_log_init is still invoked in sway/main.c
This commit makes it easier to remove the wlroots dependency for
the helper programs swaymsg, swaybg, swaybar, and swaynag.
Call pango_cairo_context_set_font_options() before pango_cairo_update_layout() and pango_cairo_show_layout(). By default, Pango "merges" the Cario font options with its own, which doesn't enable full hinting.
Fixes#2674.
The cause of the issue was in get_pango_layout. When we call
pango_parse_markup, `text` is the escaped string, and the unescaped
string is then computed and written to `buf`. We were then passing the
unescaped string to pango_layout_set_markup, but this function needs the
escaped string. `buf` is not needed and has been removed.
The other part of this PR refactors escape_markup_text to remove the
dest_length argument and removes the -1 return value on error. It now
assumes that you've allocated dest to the correct length.
This does the following:
* Adds a baseline argument to get_text_size (the baseline is the
distance from the top of the texture to the baseline).
* Stores the baseline in the container when calculating the title
height.
* Takes the baseline into account when calculating the config's max font
height.
* When rendering, pads the textures according to the baseline so they
line up.
The condition checking if the markup is valid was inverted.
This commit also adds better error handling: if the markup cannot
be parsed, it fallbacks to plain text.
This starts up the event loop and wayland display and shims out the
basic top level rendering concepts. Also includes some changes to
incorporate pango into the 1.x codebase properly.
