add support for showing window title in fullscreenmode #510

Open jose1711 opened 4 years ago

jose1711 commented 4 years ago

on my 3 monitor configuration it's sometimes difficult to see whether feh's fullscreen window is in focus (hence receiving shortcuts) or not. the ability to see the window title would definitely help here. currently though with -F switch the whole screen is filled and there is no option to make the window title appear.

Wouldn't feh --draw-filename -F be enough?

jose1711 commented 4 years ago

Nope, because the filename itself does not give me the "in-focus/out-focus" information while window title typically changes color/tint.

Isn't your window manager able to make your feh window fullscreen? cause that seems a lot like a job for a window manager and not an individual application

jose1711 commented 4 years ago

I am using metacity (GNOME) and AFAIK it does not offer any integrated means of clients' windows manipulation.

jose1711 commented 4 years ago

Furthermore there does not seem to be a way to let window manager handle the window (e. g. toggle titlebar, resize window etc) and at the same time use autozoom's feature of feh (as autozoom only works for fixed geometry/fullscreen and is not recalculated upon changing the window dimensions).

feh -Z adds titlebar but zoom must be taken care of manually.
