gs-applications was introduced because we initially wanted a limited set
of categories, but this has now changed and we're back to categories
similar to the ones in the applications.menu from gnome-menus.
We can fix gnome-menus to have better categories, if needed.

Commit 9a048af1f changed the panel border to be drawn below the
background - as a result, the app menu's icon now overlaps the
panel border. As it looks cleaner to leave the border in place,
clip the icon to the panel border.
In the mockups the bottom border of active panel buttons is drawn
on top of the panel's border. To get this effect, move the panel
border into the background, so that it is not subtracted from the
vertical space given to the buttons. Adjust the drawing of the rounded
corners to reflect that change.

Now that we are using Cantarell as the default UI font, some clarity
was reduced in using the calendar. Mockups already address this so

The minimize and maximize buttons on the titlebar have lost much of their
utility in GNOME 3: the minimize functionality is largely superceded by
the ability to switch windows in the overview and conveniently use
multiple workspaces, while the maximize functionality is available by
drag to the top gesture or double clicking on the title bar.
Removing these buttons significantly cleans up the default appearance
and avoids exposing a half-done implementation of minimization.

A PolicyKit Authentication Agent is a construct used to authenticate
one or more identities. See the PolicyKit documentation for more
details on authentication agents and how PolicyKit works:
http://hal.freedesktop.org/docs/polkit/
Since gjs does not support subclassing a GObject class from Javascript
code, we bring in a native class to bridge the VFuncs to GObject
signals. Additionally, this native class also queues up authentication
requests so the user of the native class only has to deal with a
single outstanding request at any one time.
The file js/ui/polkitAuthenticationAgent.js introduces a singleton
that listens for authentication requests via the native class. This
singleton uses the PolkitAgent machinery to do the actual heavy-weight
lifting required for authentication (essentially a PAM conversation).
We currently don't allow the user to pick the identity to be
authenticated.

Make the right padding bigger and the left padding smaller, so that the
boundaries that trigger the accordion effect are more closely associated
with corresponding icons. Also slightly decrease the overall padding between
sources.
So far transitions do not work for the custom drawn corners, so to
avoid a visible glitch when transitioning a button in the panel corner
while updating the style of the apparently attached corner instantly,
remove transition of those panel buttons until we make it work for the
custom drawn parts as well.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=642697
Current mockups show the panel curving downwards at the edges to
frame the work area and look awesome. Implement those as separate
actors to not affect the struts set by the panel, and synchronize
their state with the corresponding panel buttons so they blend in
with the panel. It might be worth considering whether the corners
should be hidden with maximized windows on the current workspace,
though this might affect the illusion of them being part of the
panel. As the corners don't affect the input region, the small
overlap with windows might not be too bad after all.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=642697
The groups at the panel sides use different left/right padding, so
a slightly different CSS is required for RTL locales. Add :rtl
pseudo classes as necessary and adjust the CSS.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=642697
We now use a border image on active panel buttons to underline the
button's content. As the property does not affect the content's
allocation, the app icon ends up being drawn on top of the border
image. To prevent this, use a custom property to clip the bottom of
the app icon when the button is active.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=642697
Update the style of the panel to match the latest mockups.
- add a subtle border at the bottom of the panel
- use a highlight of active panel buttons similar to the one
used for running applications in the dash/app view
- shadow the buttons' label/icon when highlighted
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=642697
This starts saving lookingGlass history in gsettings, and also adds
the ability to clear the text field by pressing 'down' on the last

As the dash uses different widths and radii for left and right
borders, we need to use different CSS when it is positioned at
the right of the screen.

When we animating the scale for the thumbnails, the border and
background should wrap around the current size of the thumbails.
The technique that we are using to animate the scale breaks that
since we don't animate the overall size of the thumbnails box -
we just animate our child actors within the allocation.
To fix this, switch from drawing the background by packing in another
container to drawing the background with a separate actor that
is under the other actors and allocated by our custom logic.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=641881
We will change the workspace thumbnail size as we get more thumbnails; it doesn't
really make sense to always show 1/5 of the thumbnails how big or small they are,
so instead show a CSS-configurable length.

Using "background" for the hover state overwrites the "background-image"
property of running apps. Use "background-color" in hover instead, so
the background image is kept during hover. Apply the same fix to the
selection indicator for search results.
- 1px border rather than 2
- less padding around launchers
- icon prelight was too bright, bring it down a notch

Clutter containers only take their children's size into account, but
not their scale. As we want the dash to change its size smoothly
when zooming items in/out, we wrap each item in a custom container
which does consider the child's scale.

With workspaces now being stacked vertically, the horizontal
indicators in the workspace switcher are rather odd. There are
some designs for an improved workspace switch animation, but
it may take a while to implement them, so for now just change
the orientation of the existing switcher.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=641931
With automatic workspace management, explicit controls to add and
remove workspaces are no longer necessary. We also can remove the
use of addWorkspace for middle-button-click on a launcher since
launching on the last empty workspace will do the right thing.

Add workspace thumbnails to the workspace controls area. The user can
click on the thumbnail to switch workspaces and can also drag windows
out of the thumbnail to other workspaces.

For historical reasons, we had both StClickable and StButton, which
were nearly identical. StButton was more widely-used, so keep that and

When commit 961fdd861f landed
text in the overview search entry field started getting clipped.
This is because the default font size changed but the entry is a
hard coded pixel height.
This commit drops the hard coding, so the entry can automatically
size itself to the proper height.

With the current rule set, we exclude applications in the "Core"
category - this includes Nautilus, which we want to show up at
least until "Finding and Reminding" is implemented, so remove
the exclude rule for now.
Currently, "-st-shadow" can mean one of three very
different things:
1) shadow based on alpha of the background image
2) shadow the "border box" of the node
3) shadow applied to the content of a StIcon
It isn't well defined which of the above 3 cases
-st-shadow will mean for any given node, however.
This commit splits the property into three
different properties, "box-shadow",
"-st-background-image-shadow", and "icon-shadow"
to make it all very explicit.

- specify an overall font-family for all children of the stage and
for places where we just want to use a size, use font-size.
- also shrink the humongous 16px panel and menu size to a reasonable 14.

GenericDisplay used to provide a common base class for places and
recent items, none of which exists anymore. As of current mockups,
display items in "Finding and Reminding" should be based on
BaseIcon / IconGrid instead.
Now that we have a modalDialog base class in gnome-shell,
it makes sense to use it for the run dialog.
Note, the run dialog doesn't currently have buttons, so
it isn't exercising all the API of the base class.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=637187
This is a base class to make it easier to
gain a consistent look for system modal dialogs.
It handles creating a darkened backdrop behind the dialog, setting
up buttons in the dialog, keynav, etc.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=637187
Previously this was inheriting the default size, which is specified in
pts, and so would make the text larger than its 16px containing box if
you have high DPI.

A key for 12hr/24hr clock format has been added to gsettings-desktop-schemas,

As the setting can be controlled from the Date and Time panel of

We were forcing the chat-response entry to have too small a height,

Current mockups display all search results as icons as used by
application results, so change the default result display to use
iconGrid/BaseIcon. Remove the custom application results display,
as it is no longer needed.

Add the view selector and adjust the positioning of elements in the
overview. Unlike the old dash, the view selector is made public to
indicate that extensions may add additional views or search providers.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
As workspaces will appear as a particular view in the view selector,
merge WorkspacesControls and WorkspacesManager to control workspaces
and related controls, so that a single actor can be added to the
selector instead of positioning the elements from the overview.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
The new layout does no longer support view switching, so merge
GenericWorkspacesView and SingleView, and remove MosaicView.
Also rename or remove workspace properties and functions which
are now unused.
The grid will have a comeback with the new DND behavior.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
Being no longer an independent menu pane, both the toggle() and
close() functions are no longer needed, and the view's structure
can be simplified a bit.
Also update the style to fit into the view selector.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
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
focus back to the previously selected tab. Activating a normal tab
while a search is active cancels the search.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
With the new layout, search results will be displayed in an independent
view like window previews, applications and possible future additions;
it does not make much sense keeping it with the switching logic, so move
the code to its own file.
Also remove the dash-prefix from the relevant style classes.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
The new dash implementation is a single-column vertical sidebar,
whose items are scaled dynamically to fit the available height.
If the height is still exceeded after scaling down to a minimum
item size, excess items are cut off.
The now unused old dash implementation is renamed to OldDash, as
its code will be used as a base for the new view selector element.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
As the button to add workspaces will move to the same position as
the new workspace drop area in drag mode, the latter is redundant
and can be removed.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
Overlaying inactive workspaces with a gradient to fade out the actors
does no longer work when re-using the normal desktop background. If
we keep the current DND behavior, we probably want to implement a real
fade effect - for now, just remove the visually disruptive shadows.
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.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
The layout of recent mockups occupies the space previously reserved
for the info bar with the view selector. As the bar's purpose is
mainly to provide the user with feedback, it makes sense to use the
existing message tray facility instead of moving the bar elsewhere.

The scrollbar is the main culprit for cluttered controls in the
linear view - all its functionality is already provided by the

Switch from St.TextureCache.load_named_icon() to using St.Icon for named
icons. Along with the advantage of getting colorization right for symbolic
icons, this allows moving some icon sizes into the CSS.

default font size), at the request of the artists. See bug 613448.

Adding a "PopupMenuRadioButtonItem" wouldn't work well, because we'll
need radio-button indicators on multiple different styles of menu
item. Also, the current design draws the indicator in the menu item's
padding, so it's sort of special anyway. So just add support at the
BaseMenuItem level.
Also, redo the menu/menuitem padding so that all the horizontal
padding is in the menu item, or else the indicator dot will show up in
the wrong spot.

When there are menu items with right-aligned items, all the
right-aligned items should appear to the right of all the left-aligned

Shell implemented indicators got padding from default button style,
and also spacing from their container, so too much space was left
between them. This only became apparent when more than one was
implemented, though.
Redo the way that the summary item expand/collapse animation works so
that the items all resize in unison so that when moving from one to
another, the summary area as a whole stays a constant width rather
than wobbling slightly.
(Also rename all references to the "minimum" summary item title width,
since it's not a minimum, it's just the width.)

Introduce Cairo-drawn sliders to be used in PopupMenus (for example for
volume). They are stylable to some extent (colors, border width, slider
height) and have the standard behaviour of a slider, except they are
completely modal (once you start dragging, all events are intercepted by
the slider, which thus is kept active and highlighted at all times).
They show numeric values between 0 and 1 (scaling must be performed outside)
and emit value-changed on button release, but no activate, keeping the
menu open.

All mockups now use a representation for documents/places similar to
