New Features

Bugs Fixed

  • The behavior of pango markup on swaybar was fixed (thanks @zandrmartin!)
  • swaybar previously couldn't switch between workspaces with spaces in their names (thanks @thejan2009!)
  • swaybars could be loaded before all outputs were loaded, which could cause a segfault (thanks @RyanDwyer!)
  • An IPC-related segfault during initialization was fixed (thanks @gutsoo!)
  • Possible use-after-free in focus handling was fixed (thanks @zandrmartin!)
