Hello! I have been getting to know the Wayland protocol from the client side for only couple of months... So bare with me if my questions sound immature.
It took a while to get going, the documentation is there and it is informative enough to build a client. It could be a lot better though or maybe I didn't find a proper source for it. Doxygen documentation ended up being the most useful. Here is my list of questions and thoughts. Feel free to anwer or comment on any of them. I want to compose clients based on screen dimensions. I know there are fullscreen and maximized options. But I want to have total control of top level surface sizes and placements in the screen. Now talking about single screen, but this can be extented to multiple screens. This option is not part of the protocol. I can query the screen size through wl_output interface, so why I cannot position a surface in arbitary position? Why this option has been left out? I want to be able to manage the positions of all the top level shell surfaces of the client connection. Ok, so now I asked it in three different ways... I can naturally extend weston shell and implement this option, but it seems a bit overkill for such a simple option to have. What I am not getting in the picture? Best Regards, Jari Vuomajoki
