Enum WindowRole 

pub enum WindowRole {
    Ordinary,
    InputSurface,
    Sheet,
}

What a component’s window is to the session.

Variants

Ordinary

An app window a person opens, arranges and closes.

InputSurface

The session’s on-screen input surface, such as an on-screen keyboard. Its window announces the component’s own app id, by which the compositor (on the private display it launched the surface on) floats it outside the workspace and shows it only while a text field is focused. It is a session service started without a workspace, so it attaches to no workspace runtime. Its controls type into other apps’ fields, so no headless drive may operate it. It stands on no ground of its own: it floats over another app’s content and shows it through.

Sheet

A sheet the shell shows over the desktop (the power menu). It stands on no ground of its own: what it does not paint shows the desktop under it.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for WindowRole

fn clone(&self) -> WindowRole

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for WindowRole

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result<(), Error>

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Default for WindowRole

fn default() -> WindowRole

Returns the “default value” for a type.

impl PartialEq for WindowRole

fn eq(&self, other: &WindowRole) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
