Hi John,
1. Could you say a few words about "Application-level compositing using Genode's dialog API" (24.05)?
the idea is to use one application as widget inside another. I mentioned it near the bottom of the posting [1].

2. Does "Multi-monitor window management" (24.11) include support for multiple "workspaces"? (Actually, does it already support this, and I just didn't notice?)
When using Sculpt's window-manager preset, you can switch between multiple virtual desktops via Super-1 ... Super-9. By default, new windows appear at screen 1. To move a window to another screen, you have to edit rw/recall/window_layouter/recall/rules (changing the 'target' attribute of the respective window). Note that the rules file is persistent as it resides in the recall_fs. So the system remembers the window configuration across reboots.
3. During the discussion, I completely forgot about screen rotation on tablets (not necessarily auto-detecting). Given the current design, is that a difficult item?
We should certainly aim for it. But I cannot yet predict the best approach. Cheers Norman -- Dr.-Ing.
