This hack was part of the custom scroll view code that allowed for
proper scrolling when the actor was near the screen edges. Since
the port to St.ScrollView, it's unnecessary and downright wrong,
causing portions of actors to be clipped. Remove it.

The appSwitcher has been using a custom scrolling implementation because
St.ScrollView was buggy when it was written. The bugs have been fixed
so remove the custom implementation and move to St.ScrollView.

The old formula worked only when the primary monitor was positioned at the
top of the virtual desktop. When that was not the case, the available
space was miscalculated sometimes resulting in negative numbers, which in
the end produced strangely vertically stretched window thumbnails.

The last patch in the sequence. Every place that was previously
setting prototype has been ported to Lang.Class, to make code more
concise and allow for better toString().
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=664436
All classes that have at least one other derived class (and thus
benefit from the framework) have been now ported. These includes
NMDevice, SearchProvider, AltTab.SwitcherList, and some other
stuff around.

Allow push_modal to optionally only work with a keyboard only grab and
use that in altTab as a fallback to allow switching windows while a pointer grab
is in effect (like during DND operations).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=660457
Because we were sorting the Alt+Tab list by user_time rather than
stacking order / MRU, it was possible for the currently-focused window
to sometimes not be the first app in the list. Fix this by using
meta_display_get_tab_list() to get the proper MRU ordering of windows
on the current workspace, and then convert that to an ordered list of
apps.

js2-mode is no longer developed and we recommend js-mode these days,
so switch the modelines to specify that, and make them consistent
across all files.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=660358
While we allow for arbitrary modifiers in keybindings, both the
alt-tab and ctrl-alt-tab popups close when ALT is not present in
the modifier mask, resulting in ALT being de-facto hardcoded.
Instead, pass the actual modifier mask when invoking the popups.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=645200
Force an allocation at thumbnails creation so we can figure out whether we
need to scroll when selecting.
We also need to show() the whole AltTabPopup before calling _select() so that,
when computing the scrolling offset, the widgets already have their styles
loaded. Otherwise we will miss the switcher list item container's spacing.

This patch fixes the "apps vanish from alt-TAB bug".
If a "package system" rips away and possibly replaces .desktop files
at some random time, we have historically used inotify to detect this
and reread state (in a racy way, but...). In GNOME 2, this was
generally not too problematic because the menu widget was totally
separate from the list of windows - and the data they operate on was
disjoint as well.
In GNOME 3 we unify these, and this creates architectural problems
because the windows are tied to the app.
What this patch tries to do is, when rereading the application state,
if we have a running application, we keep that app around instead of
making a new instance. This ensures we preserve any state such as the
set of open windows.
This requires moving the running state into ShellAppSystem. Adjust
callers as necessary, and while we're at it drop the unused "contexts"
stuff.
This is just a somewhat quick band-aid; a REAL fix would require us
having low-level control over application installation. As long as
we're on top of random broken tar+wget wrappers, it will be gross.
A slight future improvement to this patch would add an explicit
"merge" between the old and new data. I think probably we always keep
around the ShellApp corresponding to a given ID, but replace its
GMenuTreeEntry.

Use a longer fade-in time, but with an inout transition, so that the
dialog starts fading in very slowly and then picks up speed after
150ms or so. That way if the user releases Alt+Tab right away, they'll
never actually see the dialog.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=652346
Remove ShellGlobal's monitor-related methods, and have
Main.layoutManager provide that information instead. Move
Main._relayout() to LayoutManager, and have other objects connect to
the layout manager's 'monitors-changed' signal to know when the screen
geometry has changed.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=636963
AltTabPopup was calling global.stage.get_actor_at_pos() "to force a
stage relayout", but that function does not actually have that effect.
It was also occasionally causing Clutter warnings (possibly due to a
clutter pick-buffer-caching bug?). So just remove the call.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=650317
The initial selection of the Alt+Tab dialog was happening before the
dialog was shown and allocated, and so the "do we need to scroll"
check used bogus coordinates. Fix by showing the dialog (and forcing
an allocation) first.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=647807
Alt+Tab's special case of "switch to the most-recently-used window even if
it's in the same app" is actually an hindrance for users to get a firm mental
model of Alt+Tab. Now that we have Alt+Above_Tab the special case is no longer
needed.

For applications with no proper desktop file, the window icon is
used as application icon in the tab switcher, but it won't have
the correct icon size. The current approach is to add additional
padding to these icons - the size turns out inconsistent with
other icons, but the icon appears sharp. For the dash it has been
decided that unsharp icons are less evil than differing icon sizes,
so icons are scaled up to the "right" size - for consistency, do the
same in the alt-tab switcher.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=643300
For historical reasons, we had both StClickable and StButton, which
were nearly identical. StButton was more widely-used, so keep that and
port all StClickable users to that.

When aiming for the thumbnails with the mouse one might cross an
icon by accident which causes the thumbnail list to be closed, which is
frustrating.
Fix this by delaying the icon activation when the thumbnail list is
open.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=636650
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
apps to display), destroy it immediately rather than tweening it
towards destruction, since its contents haven't been built yet and
_allocate() will throw errors if it runs.
This makes it consistent with other parts of the UI and will let the
a11y code use the rule "has_style_pseudo_class('selected') =>
ATK_STATE_SELECTED"

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.

Although within St itself there are situations where the semantics of
these functions (return TRUE or FALSE and return the actual value in
an out parameter) is useful, it's mostly just annoying at the
application level, where you generally know that the CSS property is
going to specified, and there is no especially sane fallback if it's
not.
So rename the current methods to lookup_color, lookup_double, and
lookup_length, and add new get_color, get_double, and get_length
methods that don't take an "inherit" parameter, and return their
values directly. (Well, except for get_color, due to the lack of (out
caller-allocates) in gjs.)
And update the code to use either the old or new methods as appropriate.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=632590
The keyReleaseEvent handler does not take into account that a
user might release Alt while still holding shift
(the keycode becomes Meta_L/R in that case).
The result is that the switcher stays open which is unexpected.
