windowSwitcher style, incorrect example and usage

https://labwc.github.io/labwc-config.5.html#window_switcher

<windowSwitcher preview="yes" outlines="yes" allWorkspaces="no">
  <osd show="yes" style="classic" output="all" thumbnailLabelFormat="%T" />
  <fields>
    <field content="icon" width="5%" />
    <field content="desktop_entry_name" width="30%" />
    <field content="title" width="65%" />
  </fields>
</windowSwitcher>

man labwc-config

<windowSwitcher show="yes" style="classic" preview="yes" outlines="yes" allWorkspaces="no">
  <fields>
    <field content="icon" width="5%" />
    <field content="desktop_entry_name" width="30%" />
    <field content="title" width="65%" />
  </fields>
</windowSwitcher>

On the website, the style field is in the osd field.
But, on the man-pages it is in the windowSwitcher field.
And the man-pages seem to be correct, as to where that field can be used.

I'm not sure when the website is updated, so I guess I'm on a newer version than is implied there.

In the man pages the osd field no longer exists, and there is no replacement for setting the windowSwitcher's output behavior (all, keyboard, pointer)
and in my tests labwc doesn't seem to recognize or care for this setting.

labwc --version 
labwc 0.9.2 (+xwayland +nls +rsvg +libsfdo)

This? labwc/labwc#968
I'm on a older version I think 0.9.2-1
I'm fairly confused here so I'm just going to close this, and assume the next update will change things on my system.

The website man page is automatically deployed from the master branch of the labwc github repo. We recently added the <osd> bit, so that's why they are different.

In general whatever man labwc-config tells you is correct for your installed version of labwc. If you compiled labwc yourself and did not install it you can use man build/docs/labwc-config.5 or $EDITOR docs/labwc-config.5.scd from the root of the labwc repo.

I assume the next update will change things on my system.

Yes, once released the new labwc version will support the <osd> settings but will also keep supporting the old syntax for a while (even though it isn't mentioned in the man page anymore). Breaking changes like this are additionally mentioned in NEWS.md.
