27 <description summary="Protocol for requesting activation of surfaces">
28 The way for a client to pass focus to another toplevel is as follows.
29
30 The client that intends to activate another toplevel uses the
31 xdg_activation_v1.get_activation_token request to get an activation token.
32 This token is then passed to the client to be activated through a separate
33 band of communication. The client to be activated will then pass the token
34 it received to the xdg_activation_v1.activate request. The compositor can
35 then use this token to decide how to react to the activation request.
36
37 The token the activating client gets may be ineffective either already at
38 the time it receives it, for example if it was not focused, for focus
39 stealing prevention. The activating client will have no way to discover
40 the validity of the token, and may still forward it to the to be activated
41 client.
42
43 The created activation token may optionally get information attached to it
44 that can be used by the compositor to identify the application that we
45 intend to activate. This can for example be used to display a visual hint
46 about what application is being started.
47
48 Warning! The protocol described in this file is currently in the testing
49 phase. Backward compatible changes may be added together with the
50 corresponding interface version bump. Backward incompatible changes can
51 only be done by creating a new major version of the extension.
