Good to see these things cleared up. Have some comments on the wording below, and the "cursor" role behaviour seems still undefined when attaching a NULL buffer. > > Signed-off-by: Derek Foreman <<a href="mailto:derekf@osg.samsung.com" class="gmail_msg" target="_blank">derekf@osg.samsung.com</a>> > --- > > Changes from v1: > pretty much everything - define NULL attach for wl_shell specifically > and remove the generic statement from wl_surface.attach > refer readers to "other documentation" > > protocol/wayland.xml | 10 +++++++--- > 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/protocol/wayland.xml b/protocol/wayland.xml > index 29b63be..1a76e60 100644 > --- a/protocol/wayland.xml > +++ b/protocol/wayland.xml > @@ -1002,6 +1002,10 @@ > the related wl_surface is destroyed.

How is "removes the content" compared to unmaps? Does this mean a shell implementation need to keep track of the position when the shell surface is later remapped? That would be a new requirement that was previously undefined behaviour, and is not what mutter does at the moment. </blockquote><div> </div><div>Enlightenment does this.</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"> > </description> > > <request name="pong"> > @@ -1324,6 +1328,9 @@ > <description summary="set the surface contents"> > Set a buffer as the content of this surface. > > + The role of the surface influences the behaviour of attach, > + so this documentation is incomplete without further reading. > + Possible alternative wording, possibly in the end of the <description/>, as it talks about things that is specified below: The effect committing an attached buffer to a surface depends on what role the surface has been or is going to be assigned to. See the corresponding role specification for further details. This makes read more as the behaviour of *attach* does not change, but the effect of having attached and committed a buffer.
