The workspaces view allows to drag the active workspace to swipe-scroll
to the next or previous workspace. While this behavior can come in handy
in general, there are good reasons to move the functionality to the
overview:
- Finding a spot on a workspace to start a drag can be hard,
especially when the workspace contains a single window
- With the new layout, workspaces have no visible border, making
it hard to predict where a drag can be initiated
- The same behavior is equally useful for other elements
So add setScrollAdjustment() to the overview, which allows setting
an adjustment controlled with swipe-scrolling (either horizontally
or vertically); only a single adjustment can be controlled at a
time. A swipe-scroll can be initiated on any part of the background that
is not occupied by a reactive actor. For cases where further control
is needed, 'swipe-scroll-start' and 'swipe-scroll-end' signals are
emitted.

Drag monitor functions are supposed to return a value, but
_onDragMotion() does not always do so. Add the missing return
value and remove unnecessary else.
As Gdk.Device.get_state() does not work properly from Javascript,
we used to block it in the environment. The method now has been
annotated with (skip), causing shell to crash on startup as only
existing methods may be blocked.

use of that method anyway.
Currently we reset the timeout on every mouse movement which means
the user has to keep the mouse at the exact same position for 1.25

windows easier.

Commit a65a0f03d4 changed the literal RegExp to a string-based

g_settings_schema_new() aborts if the requested schema is not found,
so the previous approach of handling the case of unstable nautilus
not being installed did not work.
Instead, remove the use of the setting altogether - the original intent
was to not have separate items for Desktop and Home in the places
section if the nautilus key was set. As the section has been removed
anyway, the impact of always adding the desktop folder is minimal
(e.g. searching for "desktop" will match the desktop folder even
if it's set to the home folder).
The latest development version of nautilus has been ported to
GSettings, which we now use as well for the desktop-is-home-dir
preference. Obviously, the required schema is only available if
a recent enough nautilus version is installed. Instead of adding
yet another module to the moduleset, catch the exception and
ignore the preference in case the schema is not available.

GenericDisplay used to provide a common base class for places and

Right now popModal() passes global.get_current_time() for

If the switcher is destroyed without ever being fully shown (either
because it couldn't get a keyboard grab, or just because there are no

_allocate() will throw errors if it runs.
The gnome-panel allows the user to hover over a tasklist entry
while draging to activate a minimized or obscured window and drop onto it.
Implement a similar behaviour by allowing draging to the activities button or
the hotcorner (and thus opening the overview), which allows the user to
activate any window (even on different workspaces) as a drop target.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=601731
When the user is doing a drag-and-drop, we want to temporarily show the
stage to allow them to drag to a different window. But we're not "really"
in the overview, and getting a grab would conflict with the X client doing
the drag and drop.
So add a showTemporarily()/hideTemporarily() pair of methods that show
the overview without grabbing.
This adds a lot more possibilities for asynchronous race conditions, so
rework the code to be more robust against multiple calls to show*()
and hide*(). The interpretation is now that all calls to show*() and
hide*() affect the state, but if we have conflicting calls to show and
hide we wait until the current animation is finished before correcting
to the right visual state.

Fix the panel menus to avoid unnecessarily bouncing out of modal (bug
634194) and to do a better job of keeping the keyboard focus in the
right place
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618885
Until recently, the clutter keyboard focus was almost always kept on
the stage, and bits of code that wanted to do stuff with the keyboard
would just watch for key-press-events on the stage. In several places,
the code wasn't even bothering to ensure that the focus was on the
stage, which caused problems with other actors that explicitly grabbed
focus.
A previous fix for this (f21403fd) was to always reset the focus to
the stage after calling pushModal(), but a better fix is to just
actually make use of the keyboard focus everywhere rather than having
everyone try to read events off the stage.
Now pushModal(actor) also does actor.grab_key_focus(), and various
bits of code have been changed to read key events off their own
toplevels rather than off the stage, meaning there's no chance of them
accidentally getting someone else's events.

According to the designers, system notifications should be transient;
so now that transient notifications are supported properly, make use
of it instead of using a timeout to remove the associated source.
Transient notifications are removed after being shown. If the summary
is being shown while they appear, they are represented in it by a new
source icon.
We always create a new source for new transient notifications to
ensure that they don't replace the latest persistent notification
associated with the source. Because we generally don't want any
new or resident notifications to be replaced by others, associating
multiple notifications with a source is the next thing we will
implement.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=633412
Resident notifications don't get removed when they are clicked or
one of their actions is invoked, and are only removed when the app
that created them requests them to be removed or sends another
notification.
Remove the source when a notification associated with it is removed.
Except if the source is a tray icon.
Make sure that we pop down the tray when a notification is clicked
or one of the actions of a non-resident notification is selected.

This basic point of this change is to avoid always creating a
hidden Clutter.Clone actor for the default present-but-not-active
zoom region. The position of the viewport and region of interest
are now stored in member variables, and the actors are only created
and updated when the region is active.
Other significant changes:
* Unused public functions are removed or made private
* The mouse tracking position is immediately updated when options
like the zoom are changed, not just on the next mouse motion.
* ZoomRegion.setROI() now updates the zoom, not just the position;
a FIXME is added to the D-Bus interface for a place where the
D-Bus interface contains duplicate possibly conflicting information
* Lens-mode is now only effectively off when the magnifier is
fullscreen, instead of actually modifying the member variable;
this makes things work properly when changing out of full-screen
mode.
* When the clamping to screen edges is turned on, we now immediately
clamp.
* The handling of setting the position to fullscreen as compared
to just setting the viewport to fullscreen is untangled.

The view selector is a tabbed interface with a search entry. Starting
a search switches focus to the results' tab, ending a search moves the

Overlaying inactive workspaces with a gradient to fade out the actors

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
While scaling the desktop background with the window previews represents
workspaces quite intuitively, the approach is not without problems.
As window previews in the overview behave quite differently to "real"
windows, the representation of workspaces as miniature versions of
"real" workspaces is flawed. The scaling also makes the transitions
to and from the overview much more visually expensive, without adding
much benefit.
Leaving the background in place provides more visual stability to the
transitions and emphasizes the distinctive behavior of elements in the
overview.

Previously, when snapping back a drag actor, we moved it back to its
original stage-relative position and scale. This worked fine if its
parent was still in the same place it was when the drag started, but
failed in cases like the linear workspace layout window drag-and-drop,
where dragging a window would "zoom out" its parent workspace, causing
the snapback to send it to the wrong place.
Fix this by instead snapping the actor back to "where the actor would
have been right now if it were still at its original scale and
position within its original parent actor" rather than "where it was
before the drag started"
