>There is, or we would not be having subsurfaces on Wayland or this entire discussion in the first place. No. The subsurfaces in Wayland are only designed for two things: 1. Direct scan-out, as in TFA. (Because a subsurface can be directly translated to a dmabuf) 2. Embedding content from one toolkit/library into another. (Because without it, lots of glue code would be needed) It's discouraged to use them otherwise, they would complicate things for no benefit. >Are you seriously arguing that the only reason to using windows in Xorg is to have composition? If you mean sub-windows, yes, that and consequently because of the way that XRDB worked. I don't see why you would ever use them just for input events within the same toolkit, they don't do anything special there. |
