| 62 | +<p>Window Maker 0.96.0 was released on August 5th 2023</p> |

| 64 | +<ul> |
| 65 | + <li>Screen corners can be assigned an external command to be |
| 66 | +executed when the mouse pointer is entering those areas. |
| 67 | +In WPrefs, “Hot Corner Shortcut Preferences” can be used |
| 68 | +for configuration or by manually adding a “HotCorners” key |
| 69 | +and value to “YES” in the ~/GNUstep/Defaults/WindowMaker file. |
| 70 | +Hot Corners feature is disabled by default. |
| 71 | +Actions are specified by the “HotCornerActions” and are defined |
| 72 | +as a four entries list (“top left action”, “top right action”, |
| 73 | +“bottom left action”, “bottom right action”). |
| 74 | +A screen corner area is a cube shape defined by the “HotCornerEdge” |
| 75 | +which is a number of pixels from 2 (by default) to 10. |
| 76 | +To lower the risk of triggering that feature accidentally a |
| 77 | +“HotCornerDelay” key can be used which is the time before the action |
| 78 | +is triggered while the pointer is in one of the screen corner. |
| 79 | +Default value is 250 ms.</li> |
| 80 | + <li>In WPrefs “Keyboard Shortcut Preferences” tab, three new actions can |
| 81 | +be configured: “Capture a portion of the screen”, “Capture a window”, |
| 82 | +“Capture the entire screen”. The file is saved in |
| 83 | +~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/Screenshots directory under a filename |
| 84 | +format “screenshot_%Y-%m-%d_at_%H:%M:%S” followed by the extension. |
| 85 | +Which can be png or jpg based on WRaster dependencies.</li> |
| 86 | + <li>libXRes is now an optional dependency. |
| 87 | +XRes the resource extension for the X protocol is used to find the |
| 88 | +underlying processes (and PIDs) responsible for displaying the windows.</li> |
| 89 | + <li>Support for _NET_WM_FULLSCREEN_MONITORS hint. |
| 90 | +That hint allows applications that support it to be set as fullscreen on multiple heads. |
| 91 | +It depends on Xinerama extension support.</li> |
| 92 | + <li>To keep the dock on the primary head in a multi-head setup, set the option |
| 93 | + “KeepDockOnPrimaryHead” in ~/GNUstep/Defaults/WindowMaker to “YES” or click |
| 94 | + “Keep dock on primary head” under the WPrefs “Expert User Preferences” tab.</li> |
