Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog, and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

[Unreleased]

[0.3.0] - 2026-05-23

Added

  • Optional active-layout tracking per KDE Activity, so each Activity can keep its own active layout per monitor.
  • Activity-scoped placement memory for existing windows, so windows can return to their Activity-specific Magnetile zone when switching Activities.
  • Optional Activity placement profiles that snap newly opened matching windows to configured zones for the current KDE Activity.

Changed

  • Activity profiles are placement-only. Magnetile does not launch applications from inside the KWin script; use KDE application shortcuts, launchers, or an external helper to start apps.

[0.2.3] - 2026-05-09

Added

  • Custom edge-snap trigger regions for zones via optional snapEdge, snapX, and snapWidth layout fields.
  • Layout editor controls for editing and round-tripping custom edge-snap triggers.

Fixed

  • Edge snapping overlapping layouts can now target different zones from different screen edges without changing placement geometry.
  • Dropping into runtime resized zones now uses the same effective geometry as the preview.
  • Resizing a single zone preserves unchanged padded edges instead of collapsing layout padding.

[0.2.2] - 2026-04-29

Fixed

  • Restored per-output layout tracking for reset and layout cycling after the 0.2.1 runtime merged-zone fixes.
  • Ctrl+Alt+R now clears runtime merge/resize state only for the active output, desktop, activity, and layout scope.
  • Ctrl+Alt+D and reverse layout cycling now refresh from the active window's output before updating the tracked layout key.

[0.2.1] - 2026-04-29

Fixed

  • Connected resizing now treats runtime merged zones as first-class resize targets, preserving merged-zone metadata and stacked windows during resize.
  • Resetting the current layout now clears runtime merged-zone and resized-grid state so merged zones return to the configured layout.
  • Snapping windows back into normal zones no longer loses configured padding after runtime resize or merge state changes.

Changed

  • Default bundled layouts and examples now use 10 px padding instead of zero padding, matching the expected out-of-box visual spacing.

[0.2.0] - 2026-04-28

Added

  • Runtime merged zones: drop near a shared zone edge to span adjacent zones until the current layout is reset.
  • High-contrast cyan zone and merge preview indicators.
  • Existing tiled windows in affected zones now expand to the merged target so zone stacks stay coherent.

Changed

  • Multi-zone spanning uses edge/gutter drop detection instead of a held hotkey, because KWin script shortcuts are not reliable during interactive window moves.

[0.1.1] - 2026-04-14

Fixed

  • Prevent connected resize from assigning floating windows to the nearest zone, which could move or resize unrelated snapped windows while resizing a non-zoned window.

[0.1.0] - 2026-04-12

Added

  • Connected resizing: adjacent tiled windows resize together after a manual edge drag, with runtime grid tracking so future snaps follow resized zones.
  • Visual layout editor (tools/layout-editor.html) for creating, editing, previewing, importing, and exporting JSON layouts without hand-editing.
  • Free movement toggle (Ctrl+Alt+F) to temporarily exempt a window from snap behavior.
  • Per-monitor layout defaults via monitorLayoutsJson.
  • Independent active-layout tracking per output and optionally per virtual desktop.
  • Resolution-independent multi-monitor geometry fixes including outputs with non-zero origin coordinates.
  • Wayland-only / KDE Plasma 6.4+ / KWin 6 focus with no X11 code paths.
  • Layout editor features: zone snapping, padding preview, aspect ratio presets, file save/load.
  • Makefile targets for nested Wayland test sessions (make test), live reload, and KWin log tailing.
  • PROJECT_DESIGN.md architecture documentation.
  • CONTRIBUTING.md with dev setup, debugging, and formatting guidance.
  • NOTICE.md with KZones attribution.

  • Plasma color-scheme aware overlay and selector styling.
  • JSON-based layout configuration with applications, indicators, and colors.
  • Window geometry remember/restore.
  • Window class include/exclude filters.
  • OSD messages and configurable polling rate.
