29    <description summary="create surfaces that are layers of the desktop">
30      Clients can use this interface to assign the surface_layer role to
31      wl_surfaces. Such surfaces are assigned to a "layer" of the output and
32      rendered with a defined z-depth respective to each other. They may also be
33      anchored to the edges and corners of a screen and specify input handling
34      semantics. This interface should be suitable for the implementation of
35      many desktop shell components, and a broad number of other applications
36      that interact with the desktop.

44
45        Creating a layer surface from a wl_surface which has a buffer attached
46        or committed is a client error, and any attempts by a client to attach
47        or manipulate a buffer prior to the first layer_surface.configure call
48        must also be treated as errors.
49
50        You may pass NULL for output to allow the compositor to decide which
51        output to use. Generally this will be the one that the user most
52        recently interacted with.
53
54        Clients can specify a namespace that defines the purpose of the layer

118        and corners. If two orthoginal edges are specified (e.g. 'top' and
119        'left'), then the anchor point will be the intersection of the edges
120        (e.g. the top left corner of the output); otherwise the anchor point
121        will be centered on that edge, or in the center if none is specified.

130        Requests that the compositor avoids occluding an area of the surface
131        with other surfaces. The compositor's use of this information is
132        implementation-dependent - do not assume that this region will not
133        actually be occluded.
134
135        A positive value is only meaningful if the surface is anchored to an
136        edge, rather than a corner. The zone is the number of surface-local
137        coordinates from the edge that are considered exclusive.
138
139        Surfaces that do not wish to have an exclusive zone may instead specify
140        how they should interact with surfaces that do. If set to zero, the
141        surface indicates that it would like to be moved to avoid occluding
142        surfaces with a positive excluzive zone. If set to -1, the surface
143        indicates that it would not like to be moved to accommodate for other
144        surfaces, and the compositor should extend it all the way to the edges
145        it is anchored to.
146
147        For example, a panel might set its exclusive zone to 10, so that
148        maximized shell surfaces are not shown on top of it. A notification
149        might set its exclusive zone to 0, so that it is moved to avoid
150        occluding the panel, but shell surfaces are shown underneath it. A
151        wallpaper or lock screen might set their exclusive zone to -1, so that
152        they stretch below or over the panel.
153
154        The default value is 0.
