Previously we used a reparent event to detect when a view changes parent, then sent an output enter/leave to the surfaces if needed. This worked for tiling views but not floating views, as floating views can intersect another output without changing parent. The solution implemented for floating views also applies cleanly to tiling views, so the previous method has been completely replaced and the reparent event has been removed. This introduces a new function container_discover_outputs. This function compares the container's `current` position to the outputs, sends enter and leave events as needed, and keeps track of which outputs it's intersecting in a new `container->outputs` list. If it has entered a new output with a different scale then the title and marks textures will also be recreated at the new scale. The function is called when a transaction applies. This is convenient as it means we don't have to call it from various places. There is imperfect rendering when a floating view overlaps two outputs with different scales. It renders correctly for the most recently entered output, but there is only one title texture so it renders incorrectly on the old output. Fixes #2482 |

Installation
From Packages
Sway is available in many distributions. Try installing the "sway" package for yours. If it's not available, check out this wiki page for information on installation for your distributions.
If you're interested in packaging sway for your distribution, stop by the IRC channel or shoot an email to sir@cmpwn.com for advice.
Compiling from Source
Install dependencies:
- meson
- wlroots
- wayland
- xwayland
- libinput >= 1.6.0

sudo ninja -C build install
On systems without logind, you need to suid the sway binary:
sudo chmod a+s /usr/local/bin/sway
Sway will drop root permissions shortly after startup.
Configuration
If you already use i3, then copy your i3 config to ~/.config/sway/config and
it'll work out of the box. Otherwise, copy the sample configuration file to
~/.config/sway/config. It is usually located at /etc/sway/config.
Run man 5 sway for information on the configuration.
Running
Run sway from a TTY. Some display managers may work but are not supported by
sway (gdm is known to work fairly well).
