On at least iOS 26 using a temporary window frame is unreliable. This
change tries to use an existing window for any non-standalone app. It
also updates the details on any changes, such as when the device
orientation changes.
This partially reverts commit 555b667d22.
Using ComponentPeer::isShowing instead of ComponentPeer::isMinimised
inside Component::isShowing can cause problems when displaying OpenGL
components.
Specifically, OpenGL components use a ComponentMovementWatcher to
determine when they should be attached/detached from the parent window.
The ComponentMovementWatcher updates whenever a component visibility
change event is emitted, which happens in two cases:
- Component::setVisible is called on the OpenGL component or an ancestor
- ComponentPeer::handleMovedOrResized is called in response to a
minimisation state change
When handling either of these events, the ComponentMovementWatcher will
call Component::isShowing to determine whether or not the component is
really showing.
The problem is that the result of ComponentPeer::isShowing may change
independently of changes to the Component visiblity state or
ComponentPeer minimisation state, so the ComponentPeerWatcher might not
notify its listeners when a component is really shown/hidden.
One potential workaround would be for the ComponentPeer to send
notifications when the showing state of the window changes, so that the
ComponentMovementWatcher can forward those notifications. The main
problem with this approach is that on Windows, the window doesn't seem
to receive a message on hide/show, and it's not clear whether there
exists some other approach to detect a hide/show event.
If there were some event we could listen for on Windows, then we could
call Component::sendVisibilityChangeMessage in response to this event
and things would *likely* work at that point, but this may still have
unintended side-effect. As a result, I think the best approach to
restore the old behaviour is to revert the change to
Component::isShowing. The implementations of ComponentPeer::isShowing
have been left in place so that users can do still query the real
visibility state of native windows if necessary.
Running under Gnome, calling ComponentPeer::forceSetBounds immediately
after creating a new peer causes the peer to emit a visibility-changed
event because the window manager sometimes reports that the new window
is in IconicState.
_NET_WM_STATE_HIDDEN seems to more accurately reflect whether the window
is really minimised or off-screen.
