OmniWM v0.5.10

What's New Since 0.5.9

Window Management

• New windows now land on the active workspace rather than whichever workspace happened to be focused last.
• Transient popup windows are fully suppressed: no frame writes, focus changes, borders, or managed surfaces.
• Floating window admission and focus are more reliable.
• Fullscreen close replacement replay is fixed.
• Pending window identities are preserved through rescans, preventing ghost windows.
• Focused sheets (dialogs, preferences) are preserved across parent window maturation and full rescans.
• Window lifecycle reconciliation is hardened with app-and-Space-scoped rescans.
• Observed-minimum axis updates preserve the existing value when the target hasn't shrunk, reducing layout jitter.
• Observed-minimum sizes are guarded on AX incarnation match during identity rekey.
• Park frame application is deferred to the caller after identity rebind.
• Stable AX size convergence is accepted without requiring an exact match.

Niri Layout

• The Niri mouse-move modifier key is now configurable in Settings → Input.
• Columns reveal on pointer focus when the cursor approaches a column edge.
• A start-scroll directive is inserted when pending animation work exists but no active driver is running, preventing stuck scroll state.

Workspace Bar

• Label clipping in the workspace bar is fixed.

Workspaces Between Monitors

• Workspaces can now be moved between monitors via hotkey.
• Dedicated hotkeys are available for all workspace monitor-move operations.

Command Palette

• Command palette mode cycling is now available, letting you toggle through palette modes.

Quake Terminal

• Ghostty glass transparency mode is now supported in the drop-down terminal.
• The translucent quake terminal now blurs content behind it.

Dwindle Layout

• Inverted vertical window placement during Dwindle moves is fixed.

Project

• Nix installation options are now documented.
• Owned-window interaction button state prevents owned-window blocking from canceling active mouse interactions.
• The Hidden Bar assertion is properly released during shutdown.
