Fade out currently blocks closing multiple windows until the previous window is closed. Will be fixed

Nope, I just got pulled away for some other needed work. I need to re attempt the fade-out

I tested this branch a while ago, it worked pretty well... (except for weird bugs that made windows invisible). but i think another nice feature would be to make it so that you could have fading move animations. like say you have a window open. you open another, and it fades in. but instead of the previous window snapping into its new size, it would fade out the original one while simultaneously fading in the new-sized window. and maybe you could add some kind of functionality to layershell effects. e.g if mako (or any other notification daemon) redraws (or idk what its called, changes the pixels), it would fade from the previous state to the new one. in Hyprland, a notification in mako would cause mako to fade in. but when theres more than 1 notification, its just sudden. so if theres a way to do this not just with windows but redrawing certain layershell windows, i think that it could give swayfx even a bit of an edge over hyprland. although there aren't really moving animations yet, swayfx is able to give layers shadows. this could be another thing that Hyprland doesn't seem to be addressing.

Definitely agree with what you're saying here, the movement will be easy to add once fade is in. The reason this isn't merged yet is because I'm looking into fade out issues, may need to rethink how its done with a copy of the surfaces texture

doesn't this mako thing rely on client?

~~TODO: fix last commit prevented the buffer from rendering~~

WillPower3309 commented 7 months ago

~~Main big thing that is left is to have the view unfocus at start of fade out~~
