<description summary="protocol to configure output devices">
This protocol exposes interfaces to obtain and modify output device
configuration.
Warning! The protocol described in this file is experimental and
backward incompatible changes may be made. Backward compatible changes
may be added together with the corresponding interface version bump.
Backward incompatible changes are done by bumping the version number in
the protocol and interface names and resetting the interface version.
Once the protocol is to be declared stable, the 'z' prefix and the
version number in the protocol and interface names are removed and the
interface version number is reset.
</description>
<interface name="zwlr_output_manager_v1" version="4">
<description summary="output device configuration manager">
This interface is a manager that allows reading and writing the current
output device configuration.
Output devices that display pixels (e.g. a physical monitor or a virtual
output in a window) are represented as heads. Heads cannot be created nor
destroyed by the client, but they can be enabled or disabled and their
properties can be changed. Each head may have one or more available modes.
Whenever a head appears (e.g. a monitor is plugged in), it will be
advertised via the head event. Immediately after the output manager is
bound, all current heads are advertised.
Whenever a head's properties change, the relevant wlr_output_head events
will be sent. Not all head properties will be sent: only properties that
have changed need to.
Whenever a head disappears (e.g. a monitor is unplugged), a
wlr_output_head.finished event will be sent.
After one or more heads appear, change or disappear, the done event will
be sent. It carries a serial which can be used in a create_configuration
request to update heads properties.
The information obtained from this protocol should only be used for output
configuration purposes. This protocol is not designed to be a generic
output property advertisement protocol for regular clients. Instead,
protocols such as xdg-output should be used.

This event introduces a new head. This happens whenever a new head
appears (e.g. a monitor is plugged in) or after the output manager is
bound.

<event name="done">
<description summary="sent all information about current configuration">
This event is sent after all information has been sent after binding to
the output manager object and after any subsequent changes. This applies
to child head and mode objects as well. In other words, this event is
sent whenever a head or mode is created or destroyed and whenever one of
their properties has been changed. Not all state is re-sent each time
the current configuration changes: only the actual changes are sent.
This allows changes to the output configuration to be seen as atomic,
even if they happen via multiple events.
A serial is sent to be used in a future create_configuration request.

</interface>
<interface name="zwlr_output_head_v1" version="4">
<description summary="output device">
A head is an output device. The difference between a wl_output object and
a head is that heads are advertised even if they are turned off. A head
object only advertises properties and cannot be used directly to change
them.
A head has some read-only properties: modes, name, description and
physical_size. These cannot be changed by clients.
Other properties can be updated via a wlr_output_configuration object.
Properties sent via this interface are applied atomically via the
wlr_output_manager.done event. No guarantees are made regarding the order
in which properties are sent.
</description>
<event name="name">
<description summary="head name">
This event describes the head name.
The naming convention is compositor defined, but limited to alphanumeric
characters and dashes (-). Each name is unique among all wlr_output_head
objects, but if a wlr_output_head object is destroyed the same name may
be reused later. The names will also remain consistent across sessions
with the same hardware and software configuration.
Examples of names include 'HDMI-A-1', 'WL-1', 'X11-1', etc. However, do
not assume that the name is a reflection of an underlying DRM
connector, X11 connection, etc.
If the compositor implements the xdg-output protocol and this head is
enabled, the xdg_output.name event must report the same name.
The name event is sent after a wlr_output_head object is created. This
event is only sent once per object, and the name does not change over
the lifetime of the wlr_output_head object.

<description summary="head description">
This event describes a human-readable description of the head.
The description is a UTF-8 string with no convention defined for its
contents. Examples might include 'Foocorp 11" Display' or 'Virtual X11
output via :1'. However, do not assume that the name is a reflection of
the make, model, serial of the underlying DRM connector or the display
name of the underlying X11 connection, etc.
If the compositor implements xdg-output and this head is enabled,
the xdg_output.description must report the same description.
The description event is sent after a wlr_output_head object is created.

<!-- Version 2 additions -->
<event name="make" since="2">
<description summary="head manufacturer">
This event describes the manufacturer of the head.
This must report the same make as the wl_output interface does in its
geometry event.
Together with the model and serial_number events the purpose is to
allow clients to recognize heads from previous sessions and for example
load head-specific configurations back.
It is not guaranteed this event will be ever sent. A reason for that
can be that the compositor does not have information about the make of
the head or the definition of a make is not sensible in the current
setup, for example in a virtual session. Clients can still try to
identify the head by available information from other events but should
be aware that there is an increased risk of false positives.
It is not recommended to display the make string in UI to users. For
that the string provided by the description event should be preferred.
