Fix implementation of CefBrowserView::RequestFocus for Chrome style
browsers. Match Alloy style behavior of requesting browser focus
(calling OnSetFocus) after initial navigation. Add CefView::HasFocus
and CefWindow::GetFocusedView that can be used in combination with
CefWindow::IsActive to determine global keyboard focus.
Update sample applications for the new behavior.
In cefclient:
- Browser receives initial focus via ViewsWindow::RequestBrowserFocus.
- When running with `--show-overlay-browser` (see #3790):
- Give initial focus to the overlay browser.
- Change the overlay popout shortcut to CTRL+SHIFT+O to avoid
assigning focus to the menu in the main window.
- Switching from overlay in the main window to popout browser
window will give focus to the popout browser.
- Switching from popout browser to overlay will leave current focus
unchanged (e.g. in the overlay browser, or somewhere else). User
gesture to activate the main window may be required on Mac/Linux.
- When running with `--no-active` don't give initial focus to either
browser.
In cefsimple:
- Browser receives initial focus via default handling.
Split the Alloy runtime into bootstrap and style components. Support
creation of Alloy style browsers and windows with the Chrome runtime.
Chrome runtime (`--enable-chrome-runtime`) + Alloy style
(`--use-alloy-style`) supports Views (`--use-views`), native parent
(`--use-native`) and windowless rendering
(`--off-screen-rendering-enabled`).
Print preview is supported in all cases except with windowless rendering
on all platforms and native parent on MacOS. It is disabled by default
with Alloy style for legacy compatibility. Where supported it can be
enabled or disabled globally using `--[enable|disable]-print-preview` or
configured on a per-RequestContext basis using the
`printing.print_preview_disabled` preference. It also behaves as
expected when triggered via the PDF viewer print button.
Chrome runtime + Alloy style behavior differs from Alloy runtime in the
following significant ways:
- Supports Chrome error pages by default.
- DevTools popups are Chrome style only (cannot be windowless).
- The Alloy extension API will not supported.
Chrome runtime + Alloy style passes all expected Alloy ceftests except
the following:
- `DisplayTest.AutoResize` (Alloy extension API not supported)
- `DownloadTest.*` (Download API not yet supported)
- `ExtensionTest.*` (Alloy extension API not supported)
This change also adds Chrome runtime support for
CefContextMenuHandler::RunContextMenu (see #3293).
This change also explicitly blocks (and doesn't retry) FrameAttached
requests from PDF viewer and print preview excluded frames (see #3664).
Known issues specific to Chrome runtime + Alloy style:
- DevTools popup with windowless rendering doesn't load successfully.
Use windowed rendering or remote debugging as a workaround.
- Chrome style Window with Alloy style BrowserView (`--use-alloy-style
--use-chrome-style-window`) does not show Chrome theme changes.
To test:
- Run `ceftests --enable-chrome-runtime --use-alloy-style
[--use-chrome-style-window] [--use-views|--use-native]
--gtest_filter=...`
- Run `cefclient --enable-chrome-runtime --use-alloy-style
[--use-chrome-style-window]
[--use-views|--use-native|--off-screen-rendering-enabled]`
- Run `cefsimple --enable-chrome-runtime --use-alloy-style [--use-views]`
Controls now respect OS and Chrome themes by default for both Alloy
and Chrome runtimes. Chrome themes (mode and colors) can be configured
using the new CefRequestContext::SetChromeColorScheme method. Individual
theme colors can be overridden using the new CefWindowDelegate::
OnThemeColorsChanged and CefWindow::SetThemeColor methods.
The `--force-light-mode` and `--force-dark-mode` command-line flags are
now respected on all platforms as an override for the OS theme.
The current Chrome theme, if any, will take precedence over the OS theme
when determining light/dark status. On Windows and MacOS the titlebar
color will also be updated to match the light/dark theme.
Testable as follows:
- Run: `cefclient --enable-chrome-runtime` OR
`cefclient --use-views --persist-user-preferences --cache-path=...`
- App launches with default OS light/dark theme colors.
- Change OS dark/light theme under system settings. Notice that theme
colors change as expected.
- Right click, select items from the new Theme sub-menu. Notice that
theme colors behave as expected.
- Exit and relaunch the app. Notice that the last-used theme colors are
applied on app restart.
- Add `--background-color=green` to above command-line.
- Perform the same actions as above. Notice that all controls start
and remain green throughout (except some icons with Chrome runtime).
- Add `--force-light-mode` or `--force-dark-mode` to above command-line.
- Perform the same actions as above. Notice that OS dark/light theme
changes are ignored, but Chrome theme changes work as expected.
Use the same code path for all fullscreen transitions so that Chrome UI updates
correctly. All user-initiated fullscreen transitions now result in
CefWindowDelegate::OnWindowFullscreenTransition callbacks.
A modal dialog is a child CefWindow that implements some special behaviors
relative to a parent CefWindow. Like any CefWindow it can be framed with
titlebar or frameless, and optionally contain draggable regions (subject to
platform limitations described below). Modal dialogs are shown centered on
the parent window (inside a single display) and always stay on top of the
parent window in z-order. Sizing behavior and available window buttons are
controlled via the usual CefWindowDelegate callbacks. For example, the dialog
can have a preferred size with resize, minimize and maximize disabled (via
GetPreferredSize, CanResize, CanMinimize and CanMaximize respectively).
This change adds support for two modality modes. With window modality all
controls in the parent window are disabled. With browser modality only the
browser view in the parent window is disabled.
Both modality modes require that a valid parent window be returned via
GetParentWindow. For window modality return true from IsWindowModalDialog
and call CefWindow::Show. For browser modality return false from
IsWindowModalDialog (the default value) and call
CefWindow::ShowAsBrowserModalDialog with a reference to the parent window's
browser view.
Window modal dialog behavior depends on the platform. On Windows and
Linux these dialogs have a titlebar and can be moved independent of the
parent window. On macOS these dialogs do not have a titlebar, move with
the parent window, and do not support draggable regions (because they are
implemented using sheets). On Linux disabling the parent window controls
requires a window manager the supports _NET_WM_STATE_MODAL.
Browser modal dialog behavior is similar on all platforms. The dialog will
be automatically sized and positioned relative to the parent window's
browser view. Closing the parent window or navigating the parent browser
view will dismiss the dialog. The dialog can also be moved independent of
the parent window though it will be recentered when the parent window
itself is resized or redisplayed. On MacOS the dialog will move along with
the parent window while on Windows and Linux the parent window can be moved
independently.
To test: Use the Tests > Dialog Window menu option in cefclient with Views
enabled (`--use-views` or `--enable-chrome-runtime` command-line flag).
Browser modal dialog is the default behavior. For window modal dialog add
the `--use-window-modal-dialog` command-line flag.
This adds support for the three-finger-swipe navigation gesture with
Alloy/Views. The default implementation matches the Chrome runtime
and navigates the browser back/forward. We also add an Alloy/Views-
specific client callback in CefBrowserViewDelegate for optional
custom handling of the gesture event.
Frameless windows now display as expected. Default traffic light buttons can
optionally be shown at configurable vertical position. Layout respects text
direction.
Note: In current master (based on M111), document PiP partially works when
run with the `--enable-features=DocumentPictureInPictureAPI` command-line
flag. However, the document PiP implementation at this Chromium version is
missing fixes that have already been cherry-picked to the 5563 release
branch. Those fixes will only be available in master after the next Chromium
update (to M112).
The cefclient sample app on Windows will persist window state across application
restart if run with cache_path and persist_user_references enabled.
To test:
1. Run `cefclient --cache-path=/path/to/cache --persist-user-preferences`
2. Move or resize the window, maximize, minimize, etc.
3. Exit cefclient.
4. Run cefclient again with the same arguments. The previous window state will
be restored.
The cefclient sample app will persist window state across application restart
if run with views, cache_path and persist_user_references enabled.
To test:
1. Run `cefclient --use-views --cache-path=/path/to/cache --persist-user-preferences`
2. Move or resize the window, maximize, minimize, etc.
3. Exit cefclient.
4. Run cefclient again with the same arguments. The previous window state will
be restored.
On Windows these new CefDisplay methods convert between screen pixel coordinates
and screen DIP coordinates. On macOS and Linux these methods just return a copy
of the input coordinates.
This change provides a generic solution for active (key) window tracking that
works with both Views-hosted and native windows on MacOS. With this new approach
we can now successfully route top menu actions to the currently active window.
Prior to this change CEF's Views API was using focus notifications as a proxy
for window activation notifications. That doesn't work on MacOS where NSWindow
activation (key status) is independent of NSView focus (first responder) status,
and changes in activation don't necessarily generate focus notifications (see
NativeWidgetMac::OnWindowKeyStatusChanged). To make this work reliably on all
platforms we now expose a CefWindowDelegate::OnWindowActivationChanged callback.
This change also fixes an uninitialized variable
(RootWindowMacImpl::with_extension_) that was causing flaky behavior in
RootWindowManager::OnRootWindowActivated.
To test:
1. Run `cefclient [--use-views]`
2. Select Popup Window from the Tests menu. Do not explicitly activate the popup
window (e.g. don't click on it).
3. Verify that further Tests menu actions go to the popup window.
4. Change activation to a first window by clicking on it. Verify that Test
menu actions go to that window.
5. Close the currently active window. Do not explicitly activate the remaining
window (e.g. don't click on it).
6. Verify that Test menu actions go to the only remaining window.
To test:
Run `cefclient.exe --use-views --hide-frame --hide-controls`
Add `--enable-chrome-runtime` for the same behavior using the Chrome location
bar instead of a text field.
The optional |extra_info| parameter provides an opportunity to specify extra
information specific to the created browser that will be passed to
CefRenderProcessHandler::OnBrowserCreated() in the render process.
- The |category| value for all TRACE calls from CEF client applications is now
"cef.client" due to https://crrev.com/331266377d.
- The |with_menu_marker| parameter to CreateMenuButton has been removed due to
https://crrev.com/7f7e382118.
- Add CefRequestContext::LoadExtension, CefExtension, CefExtensionHandler and
related methods/interfaces.
- Add chrome://extensions-support that lists supported Chrome APIs.
- Add CefBrowserHost::SetAutoResizeEnabled and CefDisplayHandler::OnAutoResize
to support browser resize based on preferred web contents size.
- views: Add support for custom CefMenuButton popups.
- cefclient: Run with `--load-extension=set_page_color` command-line flag for
an extension loading example. Add `--use-views` on Windows and Linux for an
even better example.
