This is a workaround for power users for the "Show Apps" button
placement being too inconvenient to press at the bottom of the
dash favorites list.
Unity also uses Super+A to show the Apps lens.

The application menu is currently unusable with non-maximized
windows when using focus-follows-mouse mode. Override mutter's
focus-change-on-pointer-rest preference, so that the actual
focus change is delayed until the pointer stops moving.

Currently the layout of the password prompt differs slightly between
login dialog and unlock screen - for the former, the prompt is
displayed next to the user avatar, replacing the user name, for
the latter, it is diplayed below both avatar and name.

The message tray is now modal and pushes the view up, but the keyboard
is shown below it. Solve this by applying a special styling to the
keyboard and message tray combination, and by not pushing the windows
up when the keyboard is shown.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=683546
The speed and quality properties have been removed in favor of properties
closer to the upstream library.
Removing the properies from the pipeline would result into a huge
slowdown so we have to map the old values to the new ones.
According to the source code of the old vp8enc element quality maps to
(int)(63 - quality * 6.2) for min_quantizer and max_quantizer, while
speed maps to cpu-used = speed == 0 ? 0 : (speed - 1).
So set min_quantizer and min_quantizer to 13, and cpu-used to 5 based on
the above formulas.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=684206
The selector for insensitive popup menu items was wrong (a PopupMenuItem is
a ShellGenericContainer, not a StButton). Fixing it showed that previous
:insensitive tracking was manual for a reason: we have many items that are
not reactive, but don't want the insensitive styling (for example those in
the battery menu).
Fix it by adding a new style-class, popup-inactive-menu-item, that is added
to all new PopupMenuItems that are not activatable.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=683988
They are bigger and show an ellipsis if the count goes over 99. They
now have a blurred background and a drop shadow based on
data/theme/close-window.svg.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682891
The special padding rules for submenu items currently ensure that
content aligns properly when the scrollbar is shown. While they
work nicely for the network menu, it looks odd for non-scrolled
submenus, so make this case explicit by introducing a :scrolled
pseudo class and adjust the style rules to use it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=683009
The searchProvider interface originally used a GetResultMeta method to
return meta data of a single id; when it was changed to GetResultMetas,
the return value was not updated accordingly.

Instead of showing a notification, add a small message immediately
below the entry, and give the user two more attempts to login,
before going back to the welcome or lock screen.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682544
Change the padding values of #summary-mode to be 6px on right and left
to match the values in .summary-source, which determine the padding
between the top and bottom edges of the tray and the items.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682248
Introduce a StShadowHelper to manage drop shadows from JS (which
cannot use Cogl directly), and use it in a new StWidget-derived
JS class to draw the arrow.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682285
User testing has shown that it is not discoverable that the whole
lock screen can be dragged. A new mockup includes more arrows
and a short animation every 4 seconds.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682285
Each summary icon is 48x48 with a padding of 6px on each side. Thus,
each summary item is 60px wide. Therefore the summary mode should be
60px high instead of 72px.
Changed the tray actor to use a ClutterBinLayout so that it honors the
y-expand property of its children.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682248
The height of an unexpanded notification could include expanded
content if the notification has extra widgets (like actions and images),
so tweening to that cause it to expand visually.
Instead, use the height of the message tray before the restyle
as an upper bound.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682738
This makes the workspace indicator respect the "padding" style attribute.
Also, since we no longer draw the border on top of the thumbnail,
we need to be pixel-precise in allocating the indicator height.
We use this to make the workspace selector more similar to the mockup.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=662087
The fingerprint message is useful for users that click their
names in the user list to let them know if fingerprint login
is available.
This same place on screen (below the login entry) can potentially
be used for other messages as well.
This commit changes the variable and style names surrounding
this feature to be more generic.
A subsequent commit will leverage this functionality to provide
a hint on how to log in to the local enterprise domain controller
(if relevant).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=681975
This will help to ensure that it doesn't distract from the other
elements in the overview, such as the dash, window thumbnails and
workspace switcher.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682342
In the new designs, we no longer need favRemoveTarget. As it shares a lot
of its functionality with the new showAppsIcon, we refactor and restyle it
accordingly.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682109
The original design for the overview had buttons for searching for
Wikipedia and Google, but in practice this is a bad idea. The buttons
are the default activations, meaning that using the overview as a
fluent motion of launching something - "firefxo<Enter>", will launch
Google/Wikipedia.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=670168
We don't need .summary-source-button:selected because we are moving the
focus to the summary item when it is clicked and therefore it is always
focused.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=681519
The currently used style works well in "normal" mode, where the
tray is shown to be located beneath the window layer (pushing the
latter up when revealed). It does not work very well in the overview,
so use the same style as dash and workspace switcher there.
Reduce padding around persistent sources, and ensure that spacing
around resident notifications is only applied once.
Also, add some padding to the clock.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=681143
Unlike the fallback gdm UI, we do not indicate in the user list
whether a user already has an open session or not. This information
is useful, so use a spotlight effect similar to the running-app
indicator to mark logged in users.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=658185
We want to style user list items differently depending on whether
the list is expanded or shrunk; instead of manually updating the
items' style, we can just expose the :expanded style on the list
itself and use that in the CSS.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=658185
Until the recent style changes, the same element was used to indicate
both item focus and progress for timed logins. As focus is now indicated
by the item's background style, rename the indicator from focusBin to
timedLoginIndicator and make some minor adjustments to better fit the
new style:
- move it next to the icon below the text
- give it a white color and a shadow
- update animation to grow from the left instead of the center
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=660913
Rather than changing the text color to indicate hover and an underline
to mark the focused item, use the same semi-transparent white background
as in the overview.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=660913
Track screen lock status in the message tray, and filter banner
notifications. The message tray is completely hidden when the screen is
locked, but exceptions can be made for individual transient notifications,
such as shell messages and the on screen keyboard.
Non transient sources are shown in the middle of the lock screen. Resident
notifications (such as those from Rhythmbox) are shown in full, while
persistent ones are displayed as icon and message count.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619955
The design calls for the curtain to appear in the gdm greeter too.
Implement this by having the screenshield manage the login dialog
(delegating its creation to SessionMode).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619955
This separates the screen shield into two main screens. One is
the lock screen, and it is shown when coming back from idle status
and when failing authentication. The other is the actual unlock
dialog.
Moving from the first to the second is possible by pressing Escape
or by dragging an arrow on the bottom on the screen.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619955
When the screenshield is deactivated, instead of going back to the
session immediately, prompt the user for authentication.
This essentially reinstates what used to be provided by gnome-screensaver.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619955
We are replacing the gnome-screensaver module with with a screen shield
that is part of gnome-shell.
This patch fades out the screen on idle and shows a shield with a background
image when there is activity again. The shield can be removed with a key or
button press.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619955
Style updates to match current mockups. Give panel menus a
opaque black background, remove the border from notification
boxpointers and give them a bigger pointer.
While modal dialogs were attached to the parent's titlebar, it
made sense to leave the top of the parent window at full color.
With the new position of modal dialogs, it makes more sense to dim
the entire parent window, so we can use a combination of Clutter's
BrightnessContrast- and DesaturateEffect instead of our own custom
shader.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=674499
The log messages about presence changes unnecessarily cluttered the
notification.
Instead, we now present the presence states (online, offline, away, busy)
with an icon placed right next to the avatar. We also no longer show
notifications on presence changes.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=669508
Wifi and mobile broadband have signal indicators and are thus
more useful than vpn icons in the panel. Therefore, in the case
we have both wifi/3g and VPN we prefer the former as the "primary
icon" and add a lock next to it.
Behavior when VPN is added to wired or other connections is still
preserved: the wired icon is replaced by vpn.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=672591
The availability of a notification action may depend on conditions,
so add a method to control the sensitivity of buttons which have
been added with addButton().
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=651251
There have been multiple notifications ever since we had a notification stack
per source, so the idea of one notification being on screen at a time has long
been dead.

Right now, we are hard-depending on the presence of Evolution by
using its settings schemas. This is likely to be unpopular, and
also causes instability if someone happens not to have Evolution
installed, so install a schema that has the same data path as
the Evolution schema, but a different name and install that
for the keys we need.
To avoid a string-freeze break, we rely on the translations in
Evolution - if Evolution isn't installed, the key descriptions
will be untranslated in dconf-editor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=674424
The keybinding to toggle the screen recorder was implemented as a
signal on MetaScreen, as keybindings could only be defined in mutter
core. As this is no longer the case, we can move the binding into the
shell where it belongs.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=674377
With the application menu now being more than a stub, it has
become a much more interesting target, so add a keyboard shortcut

If the autorestart hint is set, the process is forcefully killed and
restarted everytime it disconnects from XSMP, which break replacing the wm

Commit a277f8e0e1 prevents icons from being
scaled when the global desktop resolution changes which is wrong since
symbolic icons are supposed to be treated like text.
Instead of specifying their size in pixels, go back to em but with a value
adjusted to the new font size that actually yields unscaled symbolic icons for
the default resolution.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=671657
Since scaled icons generally look bad we shouldn't tie their size to the font
size. In particular a recent change in the panel's font size caused status
icons to be scaled and thus look fuzzy.

Setting a default text style helps to keep things consistent and

Add an asynchronous search provider for results from a DBus service
implementing the org.gnome.Shell.SearchProvider interface; this
will allow applications to hook into the Shell's search without
implementing it in Shell itself or requiring an extension.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=663125
We will allow applications to hook into shell's search by registering
a service which implements a well-known DBus interface.
"search-providers" is a reasonable directory name for applications to
drop their registration files, but it conflicts with "search_providers"
used by open search providers - rename the latter to avoid confusion.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=663125
IconGrid items used to be square, so a single size value made
perfect sense. However, as contact search uses rectangular items,
using a single size is wrong - the allocated height ends up twice
the size of the visible height, which is particularly visible if
another provider displays results below contact results.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=670148
A new tool, 'gnome-shell-extension-prefs' can load a new entry point from
extensions, 'prefs.js', which has an entry point to return a GTK+ widget.
This allows extensions to have their own preferences dialog, without each

Instead of adding every rendered frame into the recording, drop frames
and only buffer and record enough frames to match the target framerate.
Increase the default frame rate from 15 to 30, since now that we're
actually enforcing framerate, it's noticeable that 15fps is not smooth.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=669066
The default pipeline was fairly aggressive about quality, and could
be too expensive for some computers. Decrease the quality setting for
the vp8 codec from 10 to 8, and increase the speed setting from 2 to 6.
(Basically, quality affects the visual fidelity of the end result, while
speed affects how much CPU the encoder uses to get a high compression
ratio at that quality level.)
Remove videorate from the pipeline, since the GStreamer VP8 encoder can
handle variable-framerate streams. This means that we won't spend CPU
encoding duplicate frames added by videorate.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=669066
Mutter/Metacity settings overridden by the shell have not been

Instead of using an St.Tooltip to show the app's name under the icon,

Users don't expect the bullets they just typed into an entry
field to disappear as soon as they hit enter.
Instead, they want the dialog to become insensitive during the

While the ability to show the password can be useful at times,
the existing implementation is problematic:
1) The use of a switch is wrong (as even noted in a code
comment).
2) It is inconsistent with any other password dialog (login screen,
polkit).
In lack of a properly designed solution (for all password dialogs),
the designers agreed to remove the switch for now.

Applying the "dim window" effect to the MetaWindowActor has two avantages:
first it avoids triggering bugs where ClutterOffscreenEffect doesn't handle
clone paint correctly. Second, it avoids showing the window as dimmed in
alt-Tab and the overview, which is weird.
The small downside of this is that the shadow becomes slightly gray when
the window dimmed, which is wrong - if we switched from blending with gray
to a combination of desaturation and darkening, this problem wouldn't
happen.
Revert out the addition of startY to the shader, since we don't need it
and fix the application of alpha, since we need to handle alpha correctly
for the shadow.

The previous wrapping code hardcoded a width in pixels, making it

The way the window dimmer shader is applied will cause rendering errors with

Simplify the layout in rightBox by getting rid of statusBox, and just

Legacy trayicons are mostly gone, so remove some of the special-casing

Also, fix panel.addToStatusArea() to interpret its "position" relative

The underline highlights on the panel menu items normally have a 100ms
transition between highlighted and unhighlighted, but the panel corner

rightmost item any more. Fix this by modifying the CSS from the code
instead.

The current user status menu allow to set the session status,

The theme currently hard codes the minimum size of the calendar
menu to make sure there's a designated area for events
(even if there isn't anything currently scheduled).
A side-effect of the hard coded minimum width is that

bigger than the calendar. We don't currently ever hide
the events area, but we will in the future.
This commit moves the min-width restriction from the menu
specifically to the events area.
