\section osissues_accessing Accessing the OS Interfaces

All programs that need to access the operating system
specific interfaces must include the following header file:

\code
#include <FL/platform.H>
\endcode

This header file will define the appropriate interface for your environment.
The pages that follow describe the functionality that is provided for each
operating system.

\note   These definitions used to be in FL/x.H up to FLTK 1.3.x. Usage of
        FL/x.H is deprecated since FLTK 1.4.0. You should replace all references
        of FL/x.H with FL/platform.H if your target is FLTK 1.4 or later.
        FL/x.H will be retained for backwards compatibility for some
        releases but will be removed in a later (not yet specified)
        FLTK release.

        The interfaces provided by this header file may
        change radically in new FLTK releases. Use them only
        when an existing generic FLTK interface is not
        sufficient.

\section osissues_wl_x11_hybrid The Wayland/X11 hybrid library

By default, the FLTK library is, under Linux and Unix, a Wayland/X11 hybrid which
can run FLTK-based apps as Wayland clients or as X11 clients.
The choice between running an app as a Wayland or an X11 client is done as follows,
when the app runs function \c fl_open_display() (that function can be called explicitly by the app
or implicitly by FLTK, for example the first time an Fl_Window is show()'n) :
- if the app contains a global boolean variable named \ref fl_disable_wayland and this
variable is true, X11 is used;
- if environment variable FLTK_BACKEND is not defined, Wayland is used if a Wayland compositor
  is available, otherwise X11 is used;
- if $FLTK_BACKEND equals "wayland", the library makes the app a Wayland client, and stops
  with error if no Wayland compositor is available;
- if $FLTK_BACKEND equals "x11", the library makes the app an X11 client even if a Wayland
  compositor is available.

The first condition listed above is meant to facilitate conversion of code written for
FLTK 1.3.x and containing X11-specific code; add this single statement anywhere in the
app's source code:
\code
  FL_EXPORT bool fl_disable_wayland = true;
\endcode
and the app will always run as an X11 client.

After function \c fl_open_display() has been called, exactly one of the functions \c fl_wl_display()
and \c fl_x11_display() returns a non-NULL value.
When the former function does, the app runs as a Wayland client,
and Wayland-specific functions and symbols described below (\ref osissues_wayland) can be used, whereas
X11-specific functions and symbols cannot. Otherwise, the app runs as an X11 client, and only
X11-specific functions and symbols below (\ref osissues_unix) can be used.

Because a single app can be expected to run either Wayland or X11, it's necessary to use distinct
names for global variables and functions in the X11- and the Wayland-specific source code.

Non-default configurations of the FLTK library under Linux/Unix are described in
file README.Wayland.txt.

\section osissues_unix The UNIX (X11) Interface

Cross-platform applications should bracket X11-specific source code between
<tt>\#if defined(FLTK_USE_X11) / \#endif</tt> and should ensure function
\c fl_x11_display() returns non-NULL before calling X11-specific functions and using
X11-specific symbols.

The UNIX interface provides access to the X Window System
state information and data structures.

\subsection osissues_x_events Handling Other X Events

void Fl::add_handler(int (*f)(int))

\par
Installs a function to parse unrecognized events. If FLTK
cannot figure out what to do with an event, it calls each of
these functions (most recent first) until one of them returns
non-zero. If none of them returns non-zero then the event is
ignored.

\par
FLTK calls this for any X events it does not recognize, or X
events with a window ID that FLTK does not recognize. You can
look at the X event in the \c fl_xevent variable.

\par
The argument is the FLTK event type that was not handled, or
zero for unrecognized X events. These handlers are also called
for global shortcuts and some other events that the widget they
were passed to did not handle, for example
\c FL_SHORTCUT.

extern XEvent *fl_xevent

\par
This variable contains the most recent X event.

extern ulong fl_event_time

\par
This variable contains the time stamp from the most recent X
event that reported it; not all events do. Many X calls like cut
and paste need this value.

Window fl_xid(const Fl_Window *)

\par
Returns the XID for a window, or zero if not \c shown().
\deprecated Kept for compatibility with FLTK versions before 1.4.
Use preferentially fl_x11_xid(const Fl_Window *) with versions 1.4 and above.

Fl_Window *fl_find(ulong xid)

\par
Returns the Fl_Window that corresponds to the given
XID, or \c NULL if not found. This function uses a cache
so it is slightly faster than iterating through the windows
yourself.
\deprecated Kept for compatibility with FLTK versions before 1.4.
Use preferentially fl_x11_find(Window) with versions 1.4 and above.

int fl_handle(const XEvent &)

\par
This call allows you to supply the X events to FLTK, which
may allow FLTK to cooperate with another toolkit or library. The
return value is non-zero if FLTK understood the event. If the
window does not belong to FLTK and the \c add_handler()
functions all return 0, this function will return false.

\par
Besides feeding events your code should call Fl::flush()
periodically so that FLTK redraws its windows.

\par
This function will call the callback functions. It will not
return until they complete. In particular, if a callback pops up
a modal window by calling fl_choice(), for instance, it will not
return until the modal function returns.

\subsection osissues_drawing_xlib Drawing using Xlib

The following global variables are set before
Fl_Widget::draw() is called, or by Fl_Window::make_current():

\code
extern Display *fl_display; // for compatibility with previous FLTK versions
extern Display *fl_x11_display(); // preferred access starting with FLTK 1.4
extern Window fl_window;
extern GC fl_gc; // for compatibility with previous FLTK versions
extern GC fl_x11_gc(); // preferred access starting with FLTK 1.4
extern int fl_screen;
extern XVisualInfo *fl_visual;
extern Colormap fl_colormap;
\endcode

You must use them to produce Xlib calls.  Don't attempt to change
them. A typical X drawing call is written like this:

\code
XDrawSomething(fl_display, fl_window, fl_gc, ...);
\endcode

Other information such as the position or size of the X
window can be found by looking at Fl_Window::current(),
which returns a pointer to the Fl_Window being drawn.

unsigned long fl_xpixel(Fl_Color i) <br>
unsigned long fl_xpixel(uchar r, uchar g, uchar b)

\par
Returns the X pixel number used to draw the given FLTK color
index or RGB color. This is the X pixel that
\ref drawing_colors "fl_color()"
would use.

int fl_parse_color(const char* p, uchar& r, uchar& g, uchar& b)

\par
Convert a name into the red, green, and blue values of a color
by parsing the X11 color names. On other systems, \c fl_parse_color()
can only convert names in hexadecimal encoding, for example <tt>\#ff8083</tt>.

extern XFontStruct *fl_xfont

\par
Points to the font selected by the most recent
\ref drawing_fonts "fl_font()".
This is not necessarily the current font of \c fl_gc,
which is not set until
\ref drawing_text "fl_draw()"
is called. If FLTK was compiled with Xft support, \c fl_xfont
will usually be 0 and \c fl_xftfont will contain a pointer
to the \c XftFont structure instead.

extern void *fl_xftfont

\par
If FLTK was compiled with Xft support enabled, \c fl_xftfont
points to the xft font selected by the most recent
\ref drawing_fonts "fl_font()".
Otherwise it will be 0. \c fl_xftfont should be cast to
<tt>XftFont*</tt>.

\subsection osissues_xvisual Changing the Display, Screen, or X Visual

FLTK uses only a single display, screen, X visual, and X
colormap. This greatly simplifies its internal structure and
makes it much smaller and faster. You can change which it uses
by setting global variables
<I>
before the first Fl_Window::show() is called.
</I>
You may also want to call Fl::visual(), which is a portable interface
to get a full color and/or double buffered visual.

int Fl::display(const char *)

\par
Set which X display to use.  This actually does
<tt>putenv("DISPLAY=...")</tt> so that child programs
will display on the same screen if called with \c exec().
This must be done before the display is opened. This call is
provided under MacOS and Windows but it has no effect.

extern Display *fl_display

\par
The open X display. This is needed as an argument to most
Xlib calls. Don't attempt to change it! This is \c NULL
before the display is opened.

void fl_open_display()

\par
Opens the display. Does nothing if it is already open. This
will make sure \c fl_display is non-zero. You should call
this if you wish to do X calls and there is a chance that your
code will be called before the first \c show() of a window.

\par
This may call Fl::abort() if there is an error opening the display.

void fl_x11_use_display(Display *d)
\par
Directs FLTK to use a pre-established X11 connection.

void fl_close_display()

\par
This closes the X connection. You do \e not need to call
this to exit, and in fact it is faster to not do so! It may be
useful to call this if you want your program to continue without
the X connection. You cannot open the display again, and
probably cannot call any FLTK functions.

extern int fl_screen

\par
Which screen number to use. This is set by
\c fl_open_display() to the default screen. You can change
it by setting this to a different value immediately afterwards.
It can also be set by changing the last number in the
Fl::display() string to "host:0.#".

extern XVisualInfo *fl_visual <br>
extern Colormap fl_colormap

\par
The visual and colormap that FLTK will use for all windows.
These are set by \c fl_open_display() to the default
visual and colormap. You can change them before calling
\c show() on the first window. Typical code for changing
the default visual is:
\code
Fl::args(argc, argv); // do this first so $DISPLAY is set
fl_open_display();
fl_visual = find_a_good_visual(fl_display, fl_screen);
if (!fl_visual) Fl::abort("No good visual");
fl_colormap = make_a_colormap(fl_display, fl_visual->visual, fl_visual->depth);
// it is now ok to show() windows:
window->show(argc, argv);
\endcode

\subsection osissues_specialx Using a Subclass of Fl_Window for Special X Stuff

FLTK can manage an X window on a different screen, visual
and/or colormap, you just can't use FLTK's drawing routines to
draw into it. But you can write your own \c draw() method
that uses Xlib (and/or OpenGL) calls only.

FLTK can also manage XID's provided by other libraries or
programs, and call those libraries when the window needs to be
redrawn.

To do this, you need to make a subclass of
Fl_Window
and override some of these virtual functions:

virtual void Fl_Window::show()

\par
If the window is already \c shown() this must cause it
to be raised, this can usually be done by calling Fl_Window::show().
If not \c shown() your implementation must call either
Fl_X::set_xid() or Fl_X::make_xid().

\par
An example:
\code
void MyWindow::show() {
  if (shown()) {Fl_Window::show(); return;}  // you must do this!
  fl_open_display();    // necessary if this is first window
  // we only calculate the necessary visual colormap once:
  static XVisualInfo *visual;
  static Colormap colormap;
  if (!visual) {
    visual = figure_out_visual();
    colormap = XCreateColormap(fl_display, RootWindow(fl_display,fl_screen),
                               vis->visual, AllocNone);
  }
  Fl_X::make_xid(this, visual, colormap);
}
\endcode

\verbatim
Fl_X *Fl_X::set_xid(Fl_Window*, Window xid)
\endverbatim

\par
Allocate a hidden class called an Fl_X, put the
XID into it, and set a pointer to it from the Fl_Window.
This causes Fl_Window::shown() to return true.

void Fl_X::make_xid(Fl_Window*, XVisualInfo* = fl_visual, Colormap = fl_colormap)

\par
This static method does the most onerous parts of creating an
X window, including setting the label, resize limitations, etc.
It then does Fl_X::set_xid() with this new window and maps the window.

virtual void Fl_Window::flush()

\par
This virtual function is called by Fl::flush() to
update the window. For FLTK's own windows it does this by
setting the global variables \c fl_window and \c fl_gc
and then calling the \c draw() method.  For
your own windows you might just want to put all the drawing code
in here.

\par
The X region that is a combination of all \c damage()
calls done so far is in <tt>Fl_X::flx(this)->region</tt>. If
\c NULL then you should redraw the entire window. The
undocumented function \c fl_clip_region(XRegion) will
initialize the FLTK clip stack with a region or \c NULL
for no clipping. You must set region to \c NULL afterwards
as \c fl_clip_region() will own and delete it when
done.

\par
If <tt>damage() & FL_DAMAGE_EXPOSE</tt> then only X
expose events have happened. This may be useful if you have an
undamaged image (such as a backing buffer) around.

\par
Here is a sample where an undamaged image is kept somewhere:
\code
void MyWindow::flush() {
  fl_clip_region(Fl_X::flx(this)->region);
  Fl_X::flx(this)->region = 0;
  if (damage() != 2) {... draw things into backing store ...}
  ... copy backing store to window ...
}
\endcode

\note For compatibility with FLTK versions before 1.4, member function
\c Fl_X::flx(Fl_Window*) can also be written \c Fl_X::i(Fl_Window*).

virtual void Fl_Window::hide()

\par
Destroy the window server copy of the window. Usually you
will destroy contexts, pixmaps, or other resources used by the
window, and then call Fl_Window::hide() to get rid of
the main window identified by \c xid(). If you override
this, you must also override the destructor as shown:
\code
void MyWindow::hide() {
  if (mypixmap) {
    XFreePixmap(fl_display,mypixmap);
    mypixmap = 0;
  }
  Fl_Window::hide(); // you must call this
}
\endcode

virtual void Fl_Window::~Fl_Window()

\par
Because of the way C++ works, if you override \c hide()
you \e must override the destructor as well (otherwise only
the base class \c hide() is called):
\code
MyWindow::~MyWindow() {
  hide();
}
\endcode

\note Access to the Fl_X hidden class requires to \#define FL_INTERNALS
before compilation.

\subsection osissues_x_icon Setting the Icon of a Window

FLTK recommends to set window icons using these platform-independent methods:
Fl_Window::icon(const Fl_RGB_Image *) and Fl_Window::icons(const Fl_RGB_Image *[], int).
See also methods setting default window icons Fl_Window::default_icon(const Fl_RGB_Image *)
and Fl_Window::default_icons(const Fl_RGB_Image *[], int).

FLTK on X11 also supports, for backward compatibility, use of the deprecated method
Fl_Window::icon(const void *) as follows :
<br>
Sets the icon for the window to the passed pointer. You will
need to cast the icon \c Pixmap to a \c char* when
calling this method. To set a monochrome icon using a bitmap compiled
with your application use:
\code
#include "icon.xbm"

fl_open_display(); // needed if display has not been previously opened

Pixmap p = XCreateBitmapFromData(fl_display, DefaultRootWindow(fl_display),
                                 icon_bits, icon_width, icon_height);

window->icon((const void*)p);
\endcode

To use a multi-colored icon, the XPM format and library
should be used as follows:
\code
#include <X11/xpm.h>
#include "icon.xpm"

fl_open_display();                // needed if display has not been previously opened

Pixmap p, mask;

XpmCreatePixmapFromData(fl_display, DefaultRootWindow(fl_display),
                                 icon_xpm, &p, &mask, NULL);

window->icon((const void *)p);
\endcode

When using the Xpm library, be sure to include it in the list
of libraries that are used to link the application (usually "-lXpm").

<CENTER>
<TABLE WIDTH="90%" BORDER="1" CELLPADDING="5" CELLSPACING="0" BGCOLOR="#cccccc">
<TR>
        <TD><B>NOTE:</B>

        You must call Fl_Window::show(int argc, char** argv)
        for the icon to be used. The Fl_Window::show() method
        does not bind the icon to the window.

        </TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
</CENTER>

Any window icon must be set with the above methods before the window is shown.

\subsection osissues_xresources X Resources

When the
Fl_Window::show(int argc, char** argv)
method is called, FLTK looks for the following X resources:

\li \c background - The default background color
        for widgets (color).

\li \c dndTextOps - The default setting for
        drag and drop text operations (boolean).

\li \c foreground - The default foreground (label)
        color for widgets (color).

\li \c scheme - The default scheme to use (string).

\li \c selectBackground - The default selection
        color for menus, etc. (color).

\li <tt>Text.background</tt> - The default background
        color for text fields (color).

\li \c tooltips - The default setting for
        tooltips (boolean).

\li \c visibleFocus - The default setting for
        visible keyboard focus on non-text widgets (boolean).

Resources associated with the first window's Fl_Window::xclass()
string are queried first, or if no class has been specified then
the class "fltk" is used (e.g. <tt>fltk.background</tt>). If no
match is found, a global search is done (e.g.
<tt>*background</tt>).

\subsection osissues_x_scaling Display Scaling Factor

FLTK uses the value of the Xft.dpi resource divided by 96.
to initialize the display scaling factor. That is also
what is done by the gnome and KDE desktops.

\section osissues_win32 The Windows Interface

Cross-platform applications should bracket Windows-specific source code between
<tt>\#ifdef _WIN32 / \#endif</tt>.

The Windows interface provides access to the Windows GDI
state information and data structures.

\subsection non_ascii_filenames Using filenames with non-ASCII characters

In FLTK, all strings, including filenames, are UTF-8 encoded. The utility functions
fl_fopen() and fl_open() allow to open files potentially having non-ASCII names in a
cross-platform fashion, whereas the standard fopen()/open() functions fail to do so.

\subsection osissues_wm_quit Responding to WM_QUIT

FLTK will intercept WM_QUIT messages that are directed towards the
thread that runs the main loop. These are converted to SIGTERM signals
via \c raise(). This allows you to deal with outside termination
requests with the same code on both Windows and UNIX systems.
Other processes can send this message via \c PostThreadMessage() in
order to request, rather than force your application to terminate.

\subsection osissues_win32_messages Handling Other Windows API Messages

By default a single WNDCLASSEX called "FLTK" is
created. All Fl_Window's are of this class unless you
use Fl_Window::xclass(). The window class is created
the first time Fl_Window::show() is called.

You can probably combine FLTK with other libraries that make
their own window classes. The easiest way is to call
Fl::wait(), as it will call \c DispatchMessage()
for all messages to the other windows. If necessary you can let
the other library take over as long as it calls
\c DispatchMessage(), but you will have to arrange for the
function Fl::flush() to be called regularly so that
widgets are updated, timeouts are handled, and the idle
functions are called.

extern MSG fl_msg

\par
This variable contains the most recent message read by
\c GetMessage(), which is called by Fl::wait().
This may not be the
most recent message sent to an FLTK window, because silly Windows
calls the handle procedures directly for some events (sigh).

void Fl::add_handler(int (*f)(int))

\par
Installs a function to parse unrecognized messages sent to
FLTK windows. If FLTK cannot figure out what to do with a
message, it calls each of these functions (most recent first)
until one of them returns non-zero. The argument passed to the
functions is the FLTK event that was not handled or zero for
unknown messages. If all the handlers return zero then FLTK
calls \c DefWindowProc().

HWND fl_xid(const Fl_Window *)

\par
Returns the window handle for a Fl_Window, or zero
if not \c shown().

Fl_Window *fl_find(HWND xid)

\par
Returns the Fl_Window that corresponds to the given
window handle, or \c NULL if not found. This function uses
a cache so it is slightly faster than iterating through the
windows yourself.

\subsection osissues_win32_gdi Drawing Things Using the Windows GDI

When the virtual function Fl_Widget::draw() is
called, FLTK stores all the extra arguments you need to
make a proper GDI call in some global variables:

\code
extern HINSTANCE fl_display; // for compatibility with previous FLTK versions
extern HINSTANCE fl_win32_display(); // preferred access starting with FLTK 1.4
extern HWND fl_window;
extern HDC fl_gc;  // for compatibility with previous FLTK versions
extern HDC fl_win32_gc(); // preferred access starting with FLTK 1.4
COLORREF fl_RGB();
HPEN fl_pen();
HBRUSH fl_brush();
\endcode

These global variables are set before Fl_Widget::draw() is called, or by
Fl_Window::make_current().
You can refer to them when needed to produce GDI calls, but don't
attempt to change them. The functions return GDI objects for
the current color set by
\ref drawing_colors "fl_color()"
and are created as
needed and cached. A typical GDI drawing call is written like
this:

\code
DrawSomething(fl_gc, ..., fl_brush());
\endcode

It may also be useful to refer to Fl_Window::current()
to get the window's size or position.

\subsection osissues_windows_highdpi HighDPI support
FLTK apps for the Windows platform are by default "Per-monitor DPI-aware V2".
This means that any window automatically adjusts its physical size
in relation to the scaling factor of the display where it maps.
This also means that all drawings (e.g., text, lines, images)
take advantage of the full resolution of the display in use.
FLTK apps may also use the manifest mechanism
to declare their level of DPI awareness. The FLTK library
adapts to the DPI awareness level set in the app's manifest, which can be lower
than the default level if the manifest sets it so.

\subsection osissues_windows_scaling Display Scaling Factor

FLTK uses the value given by function GetDpiForMonitor() divided by 96.
to initialize the scaling factor of each display in the system.
This matches the value of
"Change the size of text, apps and other items" found in section
"System" subsection "Display" of Windows settings.

\subsection osissues_icon_windows Setting the Icon of a Window

FLTK recommends to set window icons using these platform-independent methods:
Fl_Window::icon(const Fl_RGB_Image *) and Fl_Window::icons(const Fl_RGB_Image *[], int).
See also methods setting default window icons Fl_Window::default_icon(const Fl_RGB_Image *)
and Fl_Window::default_icons(const Fl_RGB_Image *[], int).

FLTK on Windows also supports, for backward compatibility, use of the deprecated method
Fl_Window::icon(const void *) as follows :
<br>Set the icon for the window to the passed pointer. You will
need to cast the \c HICON handle to a \c char* when
calling this method. To set the icon using an icon resource
compiled with your application use:
\code
window->icon((const void *)LoadIcon(fl_display, MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_ICON)));
\endcode

You can also use the \c LoadImage() and related
functions to load specific resolutions or create the icon from
bitmap data.

<CENTER>
<TABLE WIDTH="90%" BORDER="1" CELLPADDING="5" CELLSPACING="0" BGCOLOR="#cccccc">
<TR>
        <TD><B>NOTE:</B>

        You must call Fl_Window::show(int argc, char** argv)
        for the icon to be used. The Fl_Window::show() method
        does not bind the icon to the window.

        </TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
</CENTER>

Any window icon must be set with the above methods before the window is shown.

\subsection osissues_msdos_console How to Not Get a MSDOS Console Window

Windows has a really stupid mode switch stored in the
executables that controls whether or not to make a console
window.

To always get a console window you simply create a console
application (the "/SUBSYSTEM:CONSOLE" option for the
linker). For a GUI-only application create a Windows application
(the "/SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS" option for the linker).

FLTK includes a \c WinMain() function that calls the
ANSI standard \c main() entry point for you.
<I>
This function creates a console window when you use the debug
version of the library.
</I>

Windows applications without a console cannot write to
\c stdout or \c stderr, even if they are run from a
console window. Any output is silently thrown away.
Additionally, Windows applications are run in the background by
the console, although you can use "start /wait program" to run
them in the foreground.

\subsection osissues_win32_problems Known Windows Bugs and Problems

The following is a list of known bugs and problems in the Windows
version of FLTK:

\li     If a program is deactivated, <tt>Fl::wait()</tt>
        does not return until it is activated again, even though
        many events are delivered to the program. This can cause
        idle background processes to stop unexpectedly. This
        also happens while the user is dragging or resizing
        windows or otherwise holding the mouse down. We were
        forced to remove most of the efficiency FLTK uses for
        redrawing in order to get windows to update while being
        moved. This is a design error in Windows and probably
        impossible to get around.

\li     <tt>Fl_Gl_Window::can_do_overlay()</tt> returns true
        until the first time it attempts to draw an overlay, and
        then correctly returns whether or not there is overlay
        hardware.

\li     <tt>SetCapture</tt> (used by <tt>Fl::grab()</tt>)
        doesn't work, and the main window title bar turns gray
        while menus are popped up.

\li     Compilation with <tt>gcc 3.4.4</tt> and <tt>-Os</tt> exposes an
        optimisation bug in gcc. The symptom is that when drawing
        filled circles only the perimeter is drawn. This can for instance
        be seen in the symbols demo. Other optimisation options such
        as -O2 and -O3 seem to work OK. More details can be found
        in STR#1656

\section osissues_macos The Apple OS X Interface

Cross-platform applications should bracket macOS-specific source code between
<tt>\#if defined(\_\_APPLE\_\_) && !defined(FLTK_USE_X11) / \#endif</tt>.

FLTK supports Apple OS X using the Apple Cocoa library. Older
versions of MacOS are no longer supported.

Control, Option, and Command Modifier Keys

\par
FLTK maps the Mac 'control' key to \c FL_CTRL, the
'option' key to \c FL_ALT and the 'Apple' key to
\c FL_META. Furthermore, \c FL_COMMAND designates the 'Apple' key on Mac OS X
and the 'control' key on other platforms.
Keyboard events return the key name in
Fl::event_key() and the keystroke translation in
Fl::event_text(). For example, typing Option-Y on a Mac
US keyboard will set \c FL_ALT in Fl::event_state(),
set Fl::event_key() to 'y' and return the Yen symbol in
Fl::event_text().

Right Click simulation with Ctrl Click
\par
The Apple HIG guidelines indicate applications should support
'Ctrl Click' to simulate 'Right Click' for e.g. context menus,
so users with one-button mice and one-click trackpads can still
access right-click features. However, paraphrasing
<A HREF="https://www.fltk.org/newsgroups.php?gfltk.coredev+v:14725">
Manolo's comment on the fltk.coredev newsgroup</A>:
\par
<UL><LI>
    <I>FLTK does /not/ support Ctrl-Click == Right Click itself because Mac OS
    X event processing doesn't support this at the system level: the system
    reports left-clicks with the ctrl modifier when the user ctrl-clicks, and
    OS X system preferences don't allow changing this behavior. Therefore,
    applications must handle simulation of Right Click with Ctrl Click
    in the application code.</I>
</LI></UL>
\par
Ian MacArthur provided the following handle() method code snippet
showing an example of how to do this:
\code
    case FL_PUSH:
    {
        int btn = Fl::event_button();
#ifdef __APPLE__
        int ev_state = Fl::event_state();
#endif
        //
        // Context menu can be called up in one of two ways: -
        //     1 - right click, as normally used on Windows and Linux
        //     2 - Ctrl + left click, as sometimes used on Mac
        //
#ifdef __APPLE__
        // On apple, check right click, and ctrl+left click
        if ((btn == FL_RIGHT_MOUSE) || (ev_state == (FL_CTRL | FL_BUTTON1)))
#else
        // On other platforms, only check right click as ctrl+left is used for selections
        if (btn == FL_RIGHT_MOUSE)
#endif
        {
            // Did we right click on the object?..
\endcode
\par
There is a thread about this subject on fltk.coredev (Aug 1-14, 2014)
entitled "[RFC] Right click emulation for one button mouse on Mac".

Apple "Quit" Event

\par
When the user presses Cmd-Q or requests a termination of the
application, FLTK sends an \c FL_CLOSE event to all open
windows. If any window remains open, the termination request aborts.
If all windows close, the application's event loop terminates,
that is, Fl::run() returns.  The application can then follow
FLTK's normal termination path executing cleanup code that may be programmed
after termination of the event loop, and returning from main().
Function Fl::program_should_quit() allows to detect whether the event loop
terminated because of a program termination request.

Apple "Open" Event

\par
Whenever the user drops a file onto an application icon, OS X
generates an Apple Event of the type "Open". You can have FLTK
notify you of an Open event by calling the \ref fl_open_callback()
function.

void fl_open_display()

\par
Opens the display. Does nothing if it is already open. You should call
this if you wish to do Cocoa or Quartz calls and there is a chance that your
code will be called before the first \c show() of a window.

Window fl_xid(const Fl_Window *)

\par
Returns the window reference for an Fl_Window, or
\c NULL if the window has not been shown. This reference is a pointer
to an instance of the subclass FLWindow of Cocoa's NSWindow class.

Fl_Window *fl_find(Window xid)

\par
Returns the Fl_Window that corresponds to the given window reference,
or \c NULL if not found.

void fl_mac_set_about( Fl_Callback *cb, void *user_data, int shortcut)

\par
Attaches the callback \c cb to the "About myprog" item of the system application menu.
\c cb will be called with NULL first argument and \c user_data second argument.
This MacOS-specific function is deprecated in FLTK 1.4 and replaced by
Fl_Sys_Menu_Bar::about(Fl_Callback *cb, void *data) which is cross-platform.

Fl_Sys_Menu_Bar class

\par
The Fl_Sys_Menu_Bar class allows to build menu bars that, on Mac OS X, are
placed in the system menu bar (at top-left of display), and, on other platforms,
at a user-chosen location of a user-chosen window.


\subsection osissues_icon_osx Setting the icon of an application
\li First, create a .icns file containing several copies of your icon of decreasing sizes.
This can be done using the Preview application or the Icon Composer application
available in "Graphics Tools for Xcode". To create a high resolution icon file,
it is necessary to use the iconutil command-line utility.
\li Put your .icns file in the Resources subdirectory of your application bundle.
\li Add these two lines to the Info.plist file of your application bundle
\verbatim
<key>CFBundleIconFile</key>
<string>foo.icns</string>
\endverbatim
replacing <tt>foo</tt> by your application name. If you use Xcode, just add your .icns file to your
application target.



\subsection osissues_quartz Drawing Things Using Quartz
All code inside Fl_Widget::draw()
is expected to call Quartz drawing functions. The Quartz coordinate system
is flipped to match
FLTK's coordinate system. The origin for all drawing is in the top
left corner of the enclosing Fl_Window. The function \c fl_mac_gc() returns the appropriate
Quartz 2D drawing environment (of type \c CGContextRef). For compatibility with previous FLTK
versions, deprecated global variable \c fl_gc gives the same value.

Include FL/platform.H to declare the \c fl_mac_gc() function (or the \c fl_gc variable).

\subsection osissues_localize Internationalization
All FLTK programs contain an application menu with, e.g., the About xxx, Hide xxx, and Quit xxx items.
This menu can be internationalized/localized by any of two means.
\li using the Fl_Mac_App_Menu class.
\li using the standard Mac OS X localization procedure. Create a language-specific .lproj directory
(e.g., <tt>German.lproj</tt>) in the Resources subdirectory of the application bundle.
Create therein a <tt>Localizable.strings</tt> file that translates all menu items to this language.
The German <tt>Localizable.strings</tt> file, for example, contains:
\verbatim
"About %@" = "Über %@";
"Print Front Window"="Frontfenster drucken";
"Services" = "Dienste";
"Hide %@"="%@ ausblenden";
"Hide Others"="Andere ausblenden";
"Show All"="Alle einblenden";
"Quit %@"="%@ beenden";
\endverbatim
Set <tt>"Print Front Window" = "";</tt> therein so the application menu doesn't show a "Print Front Window" item.
To localize the application name itself, create a file <tt>InfoPlist.strings</tt> in each .lproj directory
and put <tt>CFBundleName = "localized name";</tt> in each such file.

\subsection double_window Fl_Double_Window

OS X double-buffers all windows automatically. On OS X, Fl_Window and Fl_Double_Window are handled
internally in the same way.

\subsection osissues_mac_files Mac File System Specifics

\par Resource Forks (OS X pre 10.6)

FLTK does not access the resource fork of an application.
However, a minimal resource fork must be created for OS X
applications. Starting with OS X 10.6, resource forks are
no longer needed.

<CENTER>
<TABLE WIDTH="80%" BORDER="1" BGCOLOR="#cccccc" CELLPADDING="5">
<TR><TD><B>Caution (OS X 10.2 and older):</B>

When using UNIX commands to copy or move executables, OS X
will NOT copy any resource forks! For copying and moving use
CpMac and MvMac respectively. For creating a tar archive, all
executables need to be stripped from their Resource Fork before
packing, e.g. "DeRez fluid > fluid.r". After unpacking the
Resource Fork needs to be reattached, e.g. "Rez fluid.r -o
fluid".
</TD></TR></TABLE>
</CENTER>

It is advisable to use the Finder for moving and copying and
Mac archiving tools like Sit for distribution as they will
handle the Resource Fork correctly.

\par Mac File Paths

FLTK uses UTF-8-encoded UNIX-style filenames and paths.

\section osissues_wayland The Wayland Interface

Cross-platform applications should bracket Wayland-specific source code between
<tt>\#ifdef FLTK_USE_WAYLAND / \#endif</tt> and should ensure function
\c fl_wl_display() returns non-NULL before calling Wayland-specific functions and using
Wayland-specific symbols.

extern struct wl_display *fl_wl_display();
\par
After fl_open_display() has run, function \c fl_wl_display() returns a pointer to the
struct wl_display representing the connection between the application and Wayland.
For example, \c wl_display_get_fd(fl_wl_display()) gives the file descriptor one can
use to communicate with the Wayland compositor according to the Wayland protocol.

struct wld_window *fl_wl_xid(const Fl_Window *)
\par
Returns a pointer to an <u>FLTK-defined</u> structure holding Wayland-related
data created when a window gets show()'n, or NULL if not show()'n.

Fl_Window *fl_wl_find(struct wld_window * wld_win)
\par
Returns the Fl_Window that corresponds to the given Window, or NULL if not found.

struct wl_surface *fl_wl_surface(struct wld_window *wld_win)
\par
Returns a pointer to the struct wl_surface corresponding to a show()'n
top-level window or subwindow.

cairo_t *fl_wl_gc()
\par
Drawing natively to a Wayland window : Within an overridden Fl_Widget::draw() method,
or after a call to Fl_Window::make_current(), it's possible to draw
<u>using the Cairo library</u>. Function \c fl_wl_gc() returns the adequate
\c cairo_t* value. Regular FLTK coordinates, with top-left origin, are to be used.
All FLTK-defined drawing functions (e.g., fl_rect(), fl_draw()) can be used too.

void fl_close_display()
\par
This closes the Wayland connection. You do not need to call
this to exit. It may be useful to call this if you want your program to continue
without the Wayland connection. You cannot open the display again, and
cannot call any FLTK functions.

\see \ref wayland_H "wayland.H" for all functions specific of the Wayland platform.

\subsection osissues_wayland_scaling HiDPI display support
FLTK Wayland apps automatically scale according to the Wayland-defined, integer-valued
scale factor. On a HiDPI display, it's enough to set this factor to 2 for
any FLTK app to be drawn using twice as many pixels and thus to be as readable
as it is on a regular display. With the gnome and KDE-plasma desktops, that is achieved in the
"Displays" section of the "Settings" application, selecting 200 % for the "Scale" parameter.
In addition to this, FLTK apps can also be scaled up or down typing ctrl/+/-/0/
and with the \c FLTK_SCALING_FACTOR environment variable.

\subsection osissues_wayland_window_icon Window icons
Standard FLTK functions Fl_Window::icon(const Fl_RGB_Image*),
Fl_Window::icons(const Fl_RGB_Image*[], int),
Fl_Window::default_icon(const Fl_RGB_Image*) and
Fl_Window::default_icons(const Fl_RGB_Image*[], int) have no effect on the
Wayland platform.
The equivalent of a call to Fl_Window::default_icon(const Fl_RGB_Image*) to set
the application-specific window icon can be obtained as follows, using FLTK's
editor app as an example:
- create a text file named \c editor.desktop containing :
<pre>[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Name=Editor
Name[fr]=Editeur
Comment=FLTK editor
Exec=editor %%F
Icon=/path/to/icon/file/editor.svg
MimeType=text/plain
</pre>
- The \c Name= line therein determines the string displayed when the app runs.
- Optionally, one or more <tt>Name[<em>locale</em>]=</tt> lines can be used to set
locale-specific app names.
- The \c Icon= line accepts also \c .png files.
- Put this file in \c /usr/local/share/applications/ so it's available to all system users
or in <tt>$HOME/.local/share/applications/</tt> so it's available to a single user.

\subsection osissues_wayland_decoration Window titlebars
Wayland supports both client-side window decoration (CSD), where client applications
are responsible for drawing window titlebars, and server-side window
decoration (SSD), where the Wayland compositor itself draws window titlebars. Among 4
tested Wayland compositors, Mutter (gnome's compositor) and Weston use CSD mode
whereas the KWin and Sway compositors use SSD mode.
When running in CSD mode, FLTK uses a library
called <a href=https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libdecor/libdecor>libdecor</a> to draw titlebars.
The libdecor library has been conceived to use various plug-in's to draw
titlebars in various fashions intended to match any desktop's preferred titlebar style.
FLTK supports drawing titlebars with any libdecor plug-in via an environment variable
called \c LIBDECOR_PLUGIN_DIR which can be given the name of a directory containing the
desired plug-in. When \c LIBDECOR_PLUGIN_DIR is not defined, or points to a directory
that doesn't contain a libdecor plug-in, FLTK uses its built-in plug-in to draw titlebars.
That is the most common situation, until libdecor plug-in's become available
for popular UNIX desktops.
