Separate out the main app view into different sections based on the categories
in the desktop file. The configuration is done via gmenu and the desktop menu
specification, we set XDG_MENU_PREFIX="gs-" on startup, so that gmenu reads
gs-applications.menu, which we install.
There is no support for "submenus" - only the menus directly under
Applications will be displayed as categories.

Currently we only relayout when the screen size changes, this gets
the cases where a monitor gets added/removed but not when the primary
monitor changes.
We need to relayout on all monitor layout changes.
Remove ShellGlobal::screen-size-changed signal as it is no longer used, Gdk is
used to track changes now.
A ShellGlobal::gdk-screen property is added for this purpose.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=620377
In all the cases where we activate GNOME 2 UI, e.g. the shutdown
dialog, pop out of the overview. Otherwise, it's fairly broken
since you won't see the result of your action.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=620525
Currently we don't get any drop events for dual screen modes with a screen
at the right, and behave weird by hardcoding the screen size and 0 as drag
edges.
Fix that by spawning the drop group over the whole stage and take the primary monitors position and size into account in _handleDragOver.

This patch adds ISO week dates to the calendar. Week dates are an

When dragging windows in linear view, the workspace zooms out to
allow moving the window to other workspaces. Enable the same
behaviour for items dragged from the dash.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618055
While zoomed out, the workspaces view's drop target spans the entire
monitor to implement reactive screen edges. When a drop event is not
handled by the view, an attempt is made to pass it on down the stack,
but it doesn't work properly. Fix it by iterating the target's parents
as well.
Also improve the code which translates dnd coordinates to target
positions.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619203
Ignore the fullscreen flag when we are in the overview,
otherwise we might up not showing actors like the panel even though
they have visibleInOverview set to true.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619693
Compute a frame rate for the period between:
- User sees first frame of overview animation
- User sees fully zoomed-out overview
And replace the current Frames count metrics with this. The
previous frame count metrics were actually over the period from
the start of the animation until the window labels finished
animating in; here we are careful to look at a more restricted
period.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619521
Add events when we start preparing a frame and finish preparing
a frame. (In addition to measuring property-updating overhead, this allows
us to see the interval between finishing preparing a frame and starting
painting the frame, which is the relayout time.)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619515
Currently, the drag and drop code assumes that on a successful drop
the target will either consume the drag actor or that it is otherwise
OK to destroy the actor.
As the drag behavior for window preview was changed, dropping a preview
on the dash now results in the preview being swallowed - to fix, add an
option to restore the actor in case of a successful drop as well.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619203
The activities overview is not a place where we expect users to
interact with a specific application, so showing the application
menu there is misleading.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618479
The preference dialog for the panel clock does not set its gettext
domain, so it's not translated even if though translations are
already available.
Fix by setting the domain in the GtkBuilder file and binding the
domain to the locale directory.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618873
There are some places in the code where we use both fixed positioning
and CSS. Currently we use either a combination of ClutterGroup and StBin,
or we uses StBoxLayout with fixed positioning. Replace those with the new
StGroup container.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=613907
First, simply set the ellipsize flag on the application menu labels.
Next, rework how we lay out the panel components so that the center
box is always centered and constrains the left and right, rather
than pushing it around.
Previously, as part of making the shell not obviously explode if
one had a lot of tray icons, we allowed them to push the clock over.
Instead, go back to just failing in this case; we need to exile legacy
tray icons, not be slightly less ugly.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=592640
SwitcherList.actor is no longer a St.BoxLayout but a
GenericContainer now, so the hack in AppSwitcher._getPreferredHeight is no
longer needed (it is called with the correct width now).

Switch from having separate METRICS and METRIC_DESCRIPTIONS objects
in a perf module to a single METRICS array. This is done so the
perf module can define the units for each metric.
In addition to improving the output in the web interface, the purpose
of having units is to give some clue about how to pick from multiple
values from different runs. In particular, with the assumption that
"noise" on the system will increase run times, for time values we want
to pick the smallest values, while for "rate" values, we want to pick
the largest value.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618189
When SHELL_PERF_OUTPUT is set, instead of just dumping out the metrics, dump
a more complete report with:
- Event descriptions
- Metric descriptions and value
- Event log
Helper functions shell_perf_log_dump_events() and shell_perf_log_dump_log()
are added to ShellPerfLog to support this. The gnome-shell wrapper is adapted
to deal with the changed report format.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618189
Add gnome-shell options:
--perf-iters=ITERS"
Numbers of iterations of performance module to run
--perf-warmup
Run a dry run before performance tests
Make a successful run of a performance test return 0 not non-zero,
and handle the difference between that and a 0-exit in normal
usage (meaning replaced) in the wrapper.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618189
Add some basic statistics for allocated memory based on mallinfo(),
and use that to define two metrics:
usedAfterOverview: bytes used after the overview is shown once
leakedAfterOverview: additional bytes used when the overview is
shown a second time.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618189
We want to be able to summarize the behavior of the shell's
performance in a series of "metrics", like the latency between
clicking on the Activities button and seeing a response.
This patch adds the ability to create a script under perf/
in a special format that automates a series of actions in the
shell, writing events to the performance log, then collects
statistics as the log as replayed and turns them into a set
of metrics.
The script is then executed by running as gnome-shell
--perf=<script>.
The 'core' script which is added here will be the primary
performance measurement script that we use for shell performance
regression testing; right now it has a couple of placeholder
metrics.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618189
To support scheduling performance-measurement scripts that want to run
a number of actions in series, add shell_global_run_at_leisure() to run
a callback when all work is finished.
The initial implementation of this is not that accurate: we track
business in Tweener.js via new shell_global_begin_work(),
shell_global_end_work() functions, and we also handle the case
where the main loop is continually busy.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618189
We don't need to reposition the menu every time its button is
allocated; we can just stick it in the right place when we pop it up
(which is guaranteed to not be during a layout cycle).
(This means that now we won't reposition the menu if the button
moves/resizes while the menu is already popped up, but it's not clear
that we'd want it to anyway, since that could easily result in the
user selecting the wrong item, etc.)
Also, we don't need to override the menu's width any more, so remove
that.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619113
* Align the icons inside text
* Add application name to Quit
* Fade in/out the menu
* Drop some padding around the edges
* Add padding around the separators

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618460
Per design discussion, change things back so that when choosing
an individual window, we raise only that window. However
when we select an application, raise all windows.
A behavioral change required to clearly differentiate these
is that when the window thumbnail list is popped up, it no
longer has the first window selected by default. Therefore
the user has to explicitly press the down arrow or use the
mouse to enter individual window selection mode.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617959
The ShellGlobal initialization performs several actions like connecting
to the X server, ensuring directories exist, etc., that are problematic
because we were creating the object even when running the binary for
introspection scanning. During compilation we may not even have X11
available in e.g. autobuilder type environments, and it's just a
bad idea to connect even if we do.
Avoid this by deferring creation of the ShellGlobal object
until the plugin is actually started.
Now that we're initializing things later, remove the connection to
screen changes, and initialize cached ShellGlobal state at the point
when the plugin is set. The root pixmap actor is now sized initially
on creation too. Instead of relying on screen-size-changed being
emitted on startup, explicitly invoke _relayout().
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618371
Fetch the names of the user's "subscribed" contacts, and use the
SimplePresence interface to watch for available/away/busy/etc messages
and create notifications for them.
Currently we display notifications when switching between "available"
and "offline"/"extended away", but when switching between "available"
and "away"/"busy" we just add the information to the chat window
without popping up a notification, to avoid spamming the user with
"Bob's screensaver activated" messages.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=611613
This is our convention.
The only exceptions are double quotes for words in comments that give
them a special meaning (though beware that these quotes are not truly
necessary most of the time) and double quotes that need to be a part
of the output string.
It was previously possible to add a workspace above the maximum workspaces
limit by dragging an item to the "add workspace" button or using the middle
mouse button click.
Provide the user with feedback in the info bar when it is not possible to create
a new workspace or remove the current workspace.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=591645
This ensures that we launch the new instance of an application on the newly
added workspace in the grid view, in which we don't make the newly added
workspace active by default.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=591645
Allow using the middle mouse button to open a new instance of an
application on a new workspace. The middle mouse button function
can be achieved by clicking the left and right mouse buttons
together with a two buttons mouse or holding Ctrl while clicking
with a single button mouse.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=591645
Adds the ability to create one or more zoom regions that show magnified or
enhanced views of the desktop. The magnifier provides options for:
* magnification factor,
* four mouse tracking modes common to screen magnifiers,
* positioning the magnified view in one of four screen location, or full screen,
* crosshairs to accentuate the position of the mouse,
* user preferences persistence via GConf (schemas in
.../data/gnome-shell.schemas).
* a DBus API to allow other processes to drive the magnifier as a service.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=595507
Currently there is no way for the user to cancel a workspace drag action,
which means the user has to complete the drag action before and move back
to the other workspace manually afterwards.
So cancel the drag action when the user stops.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618062
Using a horizontal St.BoxLayout for calendar container forces
width-for-height layout on the St.Table child. Since St.Table
is naturally width-for-height, this can trigger bugs and is,
at best, a bit ineffecient. Use a St.Bin instead since we don't
need any BoxLayout features.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618104
A single window that does not need to be scaled down, should be centered
and not placed at the bottom.
To avoid blurryness window positions should be pixel aligned.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617827
Some of the workspace view controls are hidden when the number of
workspaces is one (view toggle button, scroll bar in single view).
Use a fade effect instead of showing/hiding the control abruptly.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=613456
When adding/removing workspaces in linear view, both workspaces and
scrollbar movement are animated, but the size of the scrollbar handle
changes abruptly. It is more consistent to animate the size change
as well.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=613456
Add keys for customizing the panel clock to the gconf schema and make
the clock use them. The settings are copied from gnome-panel's clock
applet, excluding all location/weather/appointment/... keys. In addition,
'internet' is no longer a supported value for the format key.

In preparation for adding magnification, "uiGroup.patch", organizes the stage
along the following lines:
Stage
*Magnifier
UI group
Window group
Chrome group
Overlay group
Alt tab
App display
Chrome
...
This allows a magnifier actor to clone and magnify the UI group. The magnifier
is a sibling of the UI Group in this stage oraganization -- see the next patch,
"Magnifier.patch".
When a dropped window is accepted by a workspace in linear view, it
is moved to the new workspace. After that, the view zooms back in on
the original workspace, resulting in the moved window disappearing
from the user's sight.
Change this rather unexpected behavior, so that a successful drop
triggers a switch to the new workspace. This also improves consistency
with drops on the (+) area.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617785
Centralize the update of actor visibilities (overlays, shadows,
off-screen workspaces). Adjust the way scrolling is handled so
that it works correctly with removed workspaces.

Activate empathy when clicking on a chat icon by asking the
ChannelDispatcher to open the conversation in the default handler.
Also, remove the Approver and Handler for now, since until
telepathy-logger is stable, this means Empathy won't see (and log)
those conversations. This means that empathy's blinky status icon is
back; we'll have to do something else about that.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=611610
While the extension system already uses an XDG location (XDG_CONFIG_HOME),
other components use the deprecated $HOME/.gnome2 directory.
Replace both with XDG_DATA_HOME - the existing data (app usage stats,
looking glass history and extensions) is not migrated to the new location.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617555
Previously we used a ClutterGroup containing a second ClutterGroup for
the non-visibleInOverview actors. Redo it using a single
ShellGenericContainer, and use set_skip_paint() to hide the
non-overview chrome when the overview is visible.
Also fix up the default values for trackActor().

If a notification is about to hide, but the user has moved the mouse
towards it, let it stick around for another second (and so on, until
the mouse either reaches the tray and causes it to be pinned, or stops
moving the mouse toward it).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=610071
Figure out if the banner is too long to fit as soon as the
notification's style is set, rather than waiting until allocation
time, since it's bad to add new table rows during allocation.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=611612
Cache avatars to avoid having to re-download them every session.
We use a cache format that is compatible with empathy's, but we don't
actually use empathy's. This could be changed if we wanted.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=614974
This change doesn't actually affect anything visibly, but
using the absolute coordinates of our allocation box in allocate()

This patch combines several high level changes which are conceptually
independent but in practice rather intertwined.
* Add a "state" property to ShellApp which reflects whether it's
stopped, starting, or started. This will allow us to later clean
up all the callers that are using ".get_windows().length > 0" as
a proxy for this property
* Replace shell_app_launch with shell_app_activate and shell_app_open_new_window
A lot of code was calling .launch, but it's signficantly clearer
if we call this ".open_new_window()", and later if we gain the ability
to call into an application's menu, we can implement this correctly rather
than trying to update all .launch callers.
* Because ShellApp now has a "starting" state, rebase panel.js on top of
this so that when we get a startup-notification sequence for an app
and transition it to starting, it becomes the focus app, and panel.js
cleanly just tracks the focus app, rather than bouncing between SN
sequences. This removes display of non-app startup sequences, which
I consider an acceptable action in light of the committed changes
to startup-notification and GTK+.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=614755
We can't use gdk_display_get_pointer/gdk_window_get_pointer from gjs
when XKB is active. We already had a wrapper that did the
get-modifier-state part of that, but some places also need the
get-pointer-location part of it. So update our wrapper to return both,
and update js code to use it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=613428
The original window dnd code needed to track whether or not the
pointer was in the clone. Some later rewrite made this unnecessary,
but we were still keeping track anyway.
When the notificaionBin has an odd width this could result into
loosing pixel aligment (and ugly looking font).
As the notification is already reactive make it non reactive and
remove the use of garvity.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=614702
Also reorganizes the notification layout to use an StScrollView; very
tall notifications are now scrolled instead of just taking up more and
more of the screen.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=608999
Also, remove a lot of cruft from genericDisplay.js leftover from
previous St-ifications, and remove the pre-gtk-2.16 hacks from the
status tray in panel.js (which are much less needed with the
nearly-all-black panel anyway).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=614516
The actual changes to shell-menu.[ch] are pretty minimal; most of the
changes there are just style/spacing/indentation.
Also, removed shell_menu_append_separator() since it wasn't needed;
the separators would already have been behaving as intended just
because they were non-reactive.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=614516
The check in _windowsRestacked checks for
windows[i].x >= primary.x
and
windows[i].x <= primary.x + primary.width
(likewise for y).
This is wrong because a fullscreen window on the secondary screen is likely
to have windows[i].x == primary.x + primary.width which means that the checks
for _both_ screens would be valid, but the first one would win due to
the "break;" statement.
But here the window isn't really on the primary but on the secondary one.
Fix that by using < instead of <= for those checks.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=614509
Moving to St.Table introduced a regression that resulted in the height
of Places section to only depend on the height of the left column.
This could result into some bookmarks not being displayed at all because
there are not enough items in the left column to allocate the needed height.
Fix this by removing the St.BoxLayout actors and add the items directly to
the table.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=614144
Notify() was calling setApp() unconditionally after attempting to
determine an application. However, determining the application can
fail (for example, when notify-send is used) and resulted in an exception
being printed.
Rather than having the notificationBin, summaryBin, and
summaryNotificationBin span the whole width of the screen and just
align their children to the right spot, set their anchor_gravity
appropriately, set their anchor point correctly, and let their width
vary with the width of their child.
Fixes the fact that the area to the left and right of an expanded
notification was reactive, because the notificationBin was invisibly
covering it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=612072
Currently manual dnd mode is used with St.Clickable to avoid messing
up its internal state with a pointer grab. To avoid code duplication,
move this special handling into dnd.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=610385
While most of the code already is CSS stylable, the two-colum setup
is still done using Big.Box with hard coded spacings. Port those
remaining parts to St.Widget, so that all spacings can be adjusted
by the theme.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=610385
The POPUP_LIST_SPACING constant was used for the AltTabPopup.actor's padding,
AltTabPopup.actor's spacing and SwitcherList._list's spacing.
Switch to CSS and remove the constant.

Left-clicking an app icon and holding the button used to pop up the

Restore the previous behavior.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609013
Clicking the eject button in the places display always triggers an
unmount action. In some cases like USB drives or DVDs, eject makes
more sense - it is also consistent with nautilus' behavior.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=613405
After closing a window, the remaining previews are repositioned
after a timeout; when it is called while the user zooms a preview,
the window positions get all messed up, so postpone the positioning
in this case until the zoom ends.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=613536
The hover rewrite added a freeze/thaw_notify to
st_clickable_leave_event() (to match the one already in
st_clickable_enter_event()), which broke code in two places that
assumed "pressed" would still be TRUE when "hover" changed to FALSE.
Fix that by exposing the "held" property as well.
St.Widget's new "hover" property takes reactive children into account
when deciding whether or not the pointer has actually left the actor,
so it works better than the code that used to be here.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=610726
If track-hover is set, update the hover property automatically, and
the "hover" pseudo class to match, as StClickable used to do. (Remove
the corresponding code in StClickable). Tweak the tooltip handling to
use track-hover, which also makes it slightly more reliable in the
presence of reactive children, etc.
Since style_class and pseudo_class are space-separated lists of names,
add new methods to add and remove individual names rather than just
re-setting the entire name.
Update existing code to use the new pseudo-class methods where
appropriate. In some cases, this may result in actors having multiple
pseudoclasses where previously they only had one at a time, but there
don't seem to be any visible differences.
(There are some places that could usefully use the new style_class
methods as well, but this patch doesn't change them.)
Also, update test-theme.c to test the new methods.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=604943
When the user runs the same command as the last one saved there
is no need to save it again, otherwise we the history might end
up having lots of dupes which makes searching for an old command
harder.

Using a clone for the drag actor causes the animation into
the final position not to work as expected; instead use
the newly added DND parameters to change the original
drag actors size and opacity. (This reverts the change in
011db9f).
Since we are using the original actor, we have to be careful
not to change it during the drag, so don't actually position
dragged window actors in Workspace.positionWindows().
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=613367
Gjs now removes user_data arguments for callbacks - the existing
code still works because all user_data arguments are unused and
at the end of the argument list, but it's a lot prettier to remove
them.
Currently, the workspace objects are destroyed and recreated on
view switches. Instead, keep the objects around and reparent the
workspace actors on view switches.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=610191
Depending on screen size and pointer position, the scroll bar used
to switch the active workspace in linear view may not be a convenient
target, so allow dragging the desktop as an alternative.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=610892
DND from the places section broke with 1c4c3afb when St.Label was
replaced with St.Button.
To fix, replace St.Button with St.Clickable and use a fake_release
when starting a drag.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609218
Currently we use two buttons to toggle between the different views,
one of them always being redundant.
Fix that by only use one button that changes it's style depending on
the current view.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=610801
When an unmount operation fails, the only feedback given currently
is an exception on stderr. Use the infoBar to display an error
message and allow the user to retry the operation.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=612200
Currently the infoBar's button will always read "Undo" - sometimes
a different label makes more sense, so allow to optionally set the
label to something else.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=612200
Instead of setting a fixed size in the CSS which only works well
with a limited range of screen resolutions, assign a relative
size in the code.
While this takes away some flexibility from theme authors, it is in
line with most elements in the overview (workspaces area, dash).
Also expose the menu panes vertical alignment, so that more-apps aligns
to the workspaces area's top and more-docs to the bottom.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=610872
Limit the AppSwitcher to the screen size by either downscaling or
scrolling.
We scale the icons down up from 96, 64, 48, 32 to 22 and start scrolling
if we still fail to fit on screen.
The thumbnail box is shifted to either left or right, when failing to
fit we scroll here to.
To prevent from being offscreen at the buttom we adjust the thumbnail
height to fit.
The old positioning logic is replaced with a ShellGenericContainer to
implement a custom allocation system.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=597983
As the repositioning after closing a window preview is delayed, it is
possible that the timeout is triggered while leaving the overview. In
that case the previews move to the new overview position and are changed
abruptly to the original window position when the overview zoom is done.
To prevent this, disconnect the handler when leaving the overview.
Rename WorkspacesViewSwitch to WorkspacesControls and let it manage
all workspace controls. Do not destroy and recreate the controls bar
actor on each view change, but add it to the overview once and let it
update itself.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=610189
Hide the original actor during a grab, and create a new

The way we were loading data into a CoglTexture, then pulling it out

Also cache the faded data in StTextureCache.

Having StDrawingArea use ClutterCairoTexture causes circularity
problems with sizing - StDrawingArea wants to use its allocation for
the size of the texture, but ClutterTexture wants to use the size of
the texture to determine the requited size.
Avoid this by making StDrawingArea directly use Cairo and CoglTexture;
while doing this, the API is changed a bit for simplicity and to
match our use case:
- Instead of clutter_cairo_texture_create(), we have
st_drawing_area_get_context() to retrieve an already created
context. This can only be called in the ::repaint signal.
- The ::redraw signal is changed to ::repaint so we can have
st_drawing_area_queue_repaint() that doesn't collide with
clutter_actor_queue_redraw()
- ::repaint is now emitted lazily when painting the actor rather
than synchronously at various different points.

Currently clicking on an empty spot on the workspace actors switches to the workspace, this has a side effect that when for some reason (like using a touchpad),
the user misses the window he intends to open he will end up with the currently focused window instead.
Disable this behaviour if more than one window is open (in that case the user has to explicitly target a specific window).

We used to set this._notificationRemoved to false in _hideNotification().
However, the user focusing on the associated application can result in the
source being removed while the notification is hiding, in which case
this._notificationRemoved was set to true and never unset. This resulted in
the next notification only showing up briefly and hiding. Moving setting
this._notificationRemoved to false to _hideNotificationComplete() fixes this
behavior.

The top part of the application pane closes the pane, while outside

When closing windows in the window picker, the remaining windows
move to their new positions, which prevents the user from performing
additional actions in the picker until the animation stops and the
user adjusts to the new layout.
Instead we try to be smart and delay the repositioning, either until
the pointer stops moving or until it leaves the workspace.

Brute force merge these two by essentially replacing St.TextureCache
with a (renamed) Shell.TextureCache.
One function was added for convenience, namely "st_texture_cache_load_file_simple".
St.TextureCache had a function to load a texture from a filename, and it
returned NULL on error but only half the callers actually checked this. This
function is better.

These variables were computed strangely; through cancellation
they'd end up being negative 1/2 the width/height of the actor,

The current check looks at whether there was some am/pm suffix in the
localized time; however in some cases (locales) that does not seem to

When workspaces slide in/out in mosaic view, they may cross with the

When figuring out where to position window previews, use the clone's
position instead of the the original meta window. There shouldn't be
a difference when entering the overview, but it makes the motion when
opening/closing new windows in the overview tinier and more predictable.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=611167
Fading the application icon required the texture to have already been
loaded, which was normally the case since we create icons for apps
in the well and browser; but when finding an app not from there,
the cogl-texture for the icon might not be available.
Fix this by watching for the texture and fading when it appears.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=611288
Because we were setting the "fixed-position-set" property
on the internal label, its width/height requests weren't
being accounted for in the size request of the overall box.
The way we were hooking up to notify::allocation was hacky; do
this correctly by simply implementing a container.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=611288
Currently the picker displays information on the hovered actor's
position and the object itself. Adding style id and class of
StWidgets to the displayed information can be very helpful for
identifying a particular actor or code segment.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=611211
When the currently focused app sends a notification while in the overview,
the corresponding source icon is not removed when the overview is left.
It does make some sense to treat the overview transition the same as a
normal focus change, so we should update the summary view accordingly.
When a notification is updated by the application, the corresponding
app in its source is lost, so it is no longer possible to switch to
the application by clicking either the notification or the summary icon.
As the associated application of a source never changes, it appears safe
to leave it alone on notification updates.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=610820
Source icons are no longer needed to inform the user about events
having occured in a particular application when (s)he activates the

Right now notifications are expandable if the length of bannerText

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=610549
When leaving the overview by hitting escape or super, all windows animate
to their original positions. Zoomed windows are kept above others until
the animation ends, then the focused window is brought to the front; as
this looks odd if the zoomed window does not have focus, cancel the zoom
in that case before leaving the overview.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609243
While zooming, a window clone is reparented to the stage and thus cannot
be destroyed automatically by the "parent" container. To prevent the clone
and the corresponding overlay from leaking, we enforce destroying the clone
with the workspace.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609243
We are planning to add Empathy-specific features in the message tray, but in the
meantime we handle Empathy notifications received through the notification daemon
so that their behavior is closer to the eventual design, which is how it was before
we started associating applications with a single source and enabled notification
replacement.
Use the "appName" parameter in notifications to identify the source
rather than the id - use the latter to enable update and removal of
individual notifications as laid out in the desktop notification spec.
This is a rebase of the patch by Florian Müllner.

WindowOverlay has two actors, both with custom style properties, which
share a common _onStyleChanged() handler. This is not a problem when
entering the overview, because the actors' parent (the workspaces group)
is hidden while the actors are added. However, when windows are added to
the workspace while in the overview (e.g. when opening a new window or
dragging a window from one workspace to another), adding the first actor
to the workspaces group triggers a style-changed signal - the handler
then calls st_widget_get_theme_node() on both actors, which triggers a
warning as the second actor has not been parented yet.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=610279
If the notification body contains '&' it ends up empty and a warning
about an invalid entity is printed on stderr, so our escape code must

Instead of deleting workspaces immediately, animate the removal - it may

Reorganize the code to break up positioning into:
1) updating workspace object's scale and position
2) applying the updated parameters to the workspace actor
3) scrolling the view to a particular workspace
4) handling dragging of the scroll bar
With these cleanups, it becomes much easier to fix
the following issues:
- use animations consistantly instead of doing hard breaks
for some actions and smooth transitions for others
- snap to the closest workspace when scrolling stops
(https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=607823)
- fix the regression of the zoomFromOverlay animation when
the selected app is on another workspace

This way, clicking a message tray icon while the overview is open will
close the overview when activating its window.
Remove some other overview-related activation code which is now
redundant.
Also, remove calls to "global.get_current_time()" when calling
Main.activateWindow, since it's unnecessary (activateWindow will call
it itself if you don't pass in that arg).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609765
Previously, every time _updateState was called, it would make some
change, and so it was necessary to very carefully set up all the calls
to it, to ensure it was always called at exactly the right time. Now,
instead, we keep a bunch of state variables like "_notificationState"
and "_pointerInSummary", and potentially multiple timeouts, and
_updateState looks at all of them and figure out what, if anything,
needs to be changed.
By making the rules about what causes changes more explicit, it will
be easier to change those rules in the future as we add new
functionality.
Also, update the rules a bit, so that notifications can appear while
the summary is visible, and the summary only shows after a
notification if the summary has changed.

Currently the check in chrome.js checks if a window is on the

This bug happened because the thumbnail box was only maxed, not set to 256x256.
Standard window thumbnails would max out only the width to 256. Having a window with

Until now LookingGlass could only be closed using the Escape
key when the Evaluator class was active, as the relevant code
was associated to the text input field; this moves it into a
global event handler instead which works everywhere in LG.
We need to set the positions after the animation ends (and
fadeIn starts), not before when allocation is changed.
As the window may still be in motion when the overlay is
repositioned, it is safer to pass the calculated values
as parameters.

Rather of calling .exists() synchronously for all documents, use
ShellDocSystem's async API to only stat docs we're showing.
Use the doc opening functionality in ShellDocSystem.
Also, more intelligently do redisplay(); don't recreate actors
for recent docs if we already have one for that URI. We may
need more intelligent caching here; if e.g. just the associated
application changes, we should probably reread the info.

Previously we had various things watching for notify::mapped so
we could be more lazy about updating non-visible actors, but it
was fairly ad-hoc.
The deferred work system unifies these callbacks, and also adds

avoid a storm of work if you stay out of the overview for a while,
then go in.

It's very convenient to drill down through object properties and
be able to see exactly which portion of the screen those actors
correspond to, without trying to guess with the inspector tool.
Commit 94bd6f1718 introduced a trick
where we only do the heavy lifting for "redisplay" when we're mapped.
However, the search system wants to get the count of matched items,
and control the visibility of the display based on that. This introduces
a circularity; avoid it by forcing the search to do a redisplay.
In the future we should avoid this by separating out the "get matched
things for search" from "display list of things".

This make it is easier for the user to figure out on which workspace the
windows are. For instance, terminals related to various activities and put on
different workspaces were previously displayed as an uniform list, with no
visible distinction between the ones from the current workspace and the others.
Now they are physically separated by a thin gray line.
This is also consistent with the way applications are displayed in the
AppSwitcher.

If we're not mapped, only queue up a redisplay. This avoids

The two parts were mapping windows to applications, and
recording application usage statistics. The latter part
(now called ShellAppUsage) is much more naturally built on top of
the former (now called ShellWindowTracker).
ShellWindowTracker retains the startup-notification handling.
ShellWindowTracker also gains a focus-app property, which is
what most things in the shell UI are interested in (instead of
window focus).
ShellAppSystem moves to exporting ShellApp from more of its
public API, rather than ShellAppInfo. ShellAppSystem also
ensures that ShellApp instances are unique by holding
a hash on the ids.
ShellApp's private API is split off into a shell-app-private.h,
so shell-app.h can be included in shell-app-system.h.
Favorites handling is removed from ShellAppSystem, now inside
appFavorites.js.
Port all of the JavaScript for these changes.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=598646
Previously, we had ShellAppInfo, which contains fundamental
information about an application, and methods on ShellAppMonitor
to retrieve "live" information like the window list.
AppIcon ended up being used as the "App" class which was painful
for various reasons; among them that we need to handle window
list changes, and some consumers weren't ready for that.
Clean things up a bit by introducing a new ShellApp class in C,
which currently wraps a ShellAppInfo.
AppIcon then is more like the display actor for a ShellApp. Notably,
the ".windows" property moves out of it. The altTab code which

ShellAppMonitor gains some more methods related to ShellApp now.
In the future, we might consider changing ShellApp to be a GInterface,

Then we could axe ShellAppInfo from the "public" API and it would
return to being an internal loss mitigation layer for GMenu.

If we had a pending search processing, finish it when the user

This is a small conceptual change; the large diff is simply
moving the search implementation (unedited otherwise) from

POTFILES.in was missing some files.
"Activities" is not easily translatable into some languages, e.g. Russian,

Being able to display all applications in a category based on the search
string with a category name is generaly useful.
Prepare all the applications that match a search term based on their
category name up-front.
Remove unused this._appCategories and a call to non-existing

gdk_display_get_pointer() sometimes returns values for the mask that
aren't part of the GdkModifierType enumeration, which gjs doesn't like
(bug 597292). Work around that by adding a C wrapper that strips out
the extra flags.

Before we were badly leaking AppIcons by not disconnecting from the
window signal handlers when our actor got destroyed. This caused
us to repeatedly re-sort the windows for each AppIcon that
had ever been displayed with obvious bad consequences.
Besides simply chaining the signals to the lifetime of the AppIcon
actor, we also only do the sorting if we're mapped. This decreases
the amount of work to do in the not-mapped case.

For some unknown reason we were connecting to app-added and

This slightly changes the behaviour of the alt+tab window, this way:
when using alt-tab on a workspace that contains two or more windows from
the same window, the application selected when hitting alt+tab is the
currently selected application, but the highlighted window is the next
one.
Intended goal is to make it easier to cycle around windows of the same
application while not having to cycle through all the applications first.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=590563
By sorting the windows in the current workspace first, we ensure that
when using alt+tab to switch windows, we will pick a window on the
active workspace as the default focused window for the application if
the application has at least one window on the current workspace (that
is, if it is on the left of the app switcher separator).
This makes the behaviour of alt+tab more predictable for the user, as
an user will expect alt+tab to switch to the window he/she can see right
now rather than the one on the workspace he just left (presumably to do
something else on the workspace he's currently on).

We shouldn't show all sections each time the search is updated because that
breaks viewing search results for a single section and flickers headers for
sections with no results.
Fix displaying documents in the document browse and refreshing the selection
when the results have changed.
Make sure we are passing the appropriate flag to _redisplay() in GenericDisplay.
Make sure we set this._appsStale to true if there was a change in the
applications set.
Don't call _refreshCache() from the AppDisplay constructor.
Don't short-circuit the call to _refreshCache() from _redisplay() on initial load.
Rename _redisplayFull() to recreateDisplayItems() and remove adding an
actor to the actual result list in _addDisplayItem() because we redo adding the
actors to the list in _redisplayReordering() anyway to ensure that we add
them in the right order.
Based on a patch from Colin Walters.
Following the idea expressed in bug 590563 by mccann ("Minimized or
hidden applications should appear at the end of the list"), we should
also put applications that have no visible window in the active
workspace at the end of the alt-tab window list, after apps which have
minimized windows in the active workspace.
Miscellaneous fixes from review:
- Distribute calendar.js and the interactive test
- Make the pointless protection against leap seconds actually work

when removing old day actors.
- Remove a stray comment from the test

Make the calendar reactive and handle scroll events to change the month.
(GtkCalendar and hence the old gnome-panel calendar supported this and

Previously, we initialized actor stacking order from the return
value of global.get_windows() once, which is defined to be in
stack order. However it was not updated later. Furthermore,
the way stackAbove was called from onAnimationComplete in
WindowClone was highly dubious, since there are lots of animations
which apply to the clones, and we want the stacking to be right
all of the time, not when some animation completes.
Fix this by connecting to 'restacked' on the screen and syncing
the clones.
I also snuck in another bugfix here; we weren't disconnecting
from the 'showing' signal handler, which had various bad

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=591245
ShellTheme replaces both StStyle and ccss_stylesheet_t.
The interface StStylable is replaced by usage of ShellThemeNode.
A concrete node class allows some significant optimizations of property
inheritance that would have been much more difficult to achieve with
the highly abstract pair of StStylable and ccss_node_t.
Some operations that were previously on StStylable (like the
::style-changed signal) are directly on NtkWidget.
Custom properties are no longer registered as param-specs; instead you
call directly into shell theme node to look up a length or color:
shell_theme_node_get_length (theme_node, "border-spacing", FALSE, &spacing);
The dependency on libccss is dropped, while preserving all existing
functionality and adding proper parsing and inheritance of font properties
and proper inheritance for the 'color' property.
Some more javascript tests for CSS functionality are added; workarounds for
a CSS bug where *.some-class was needed instead of .some-class are removed.

Setting options for children added to StBoxLayout is not convenient
since we are missing the varargs methods of clutter_container.
Patch in:
child_set() - set properties of a child
add() - add a child and set properties (this is different from
clutter_container_add()! I think the deviation is
with avoiding the awkward name add_with_properties()
which is what might be expected. ClutterContainer
currently doesn't have a method like this at all.)
The code is written to allow patching into multiple ClutterContainer
classes but for now only StBoxLayout is patched, since it's the only

The run dialog uses the "development_tools" gconf key to determine
whether funcions like "lg" or "restart" should be enabled, but it
failed to notice it on the run when said key changed. This commit
fixes this.
There are now 3 code paths in decreasing speed:
First, optimize subsearching more by just hiding the actors
that didn't match, since we know the ordering has to be right.
For initiating a search (or backspacing an existing one), again
instead of destroying and recreating actors, just temporarily
remove them and re-add them in the desired order.
Finally for when data has changed, use the old code path of
destroying all actors. (This itself could obviously be optimized
if we had a way to know that just one application changed, but
at the moment we don't).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=596119
We queue a 150ms timeout when the user starts typing to avoid searching
for the first keystroke. However, this caused us to change to the search

the current search once.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=596119
This is probably not the biggest optimization that needs to be
made at least for application searching, but we can optimize the
case where we're going from a search of "fi" to "fire" by just
re-searching the list of things we already had that matched "fi"
instead of looping over everything.

Rather than having the mapping from window into "slots" (or
possible positions in the workspaces) be dependent on stacking
order, compute the minimum-motion which is a vector from one
top left corner to another. This order won't change as long
as the window set and their positions stay fixed.
There are two minimum motion algorithims; one simply computes
all possible placements by permuting the window list, up to
a current maximum of 5 windows. Past that (which also happens
to be the number where we switch to a grid), we use a "greedy"
algorithm which for each slot, finds the window with least motion
for that slot.
To break any ties, we use an internal integer in MetaWindow which
enumerates the order in which windows were created.

There are few uses for being able to exit the shell directly; my

Implement this by splitting well item into InactiveWellItem

There is no need to show two headers when we are only displaying a single
section of search results, so we merge the section header with the main
header in that case.
Show a back button on the left of the main header to get back to the results
for all sections.
Remove this._showTooltip flag from SearchSectionHeader because we no longer
show this type of header when we want to suppress the tooltip.
Add this._appSearchResultsOnlyShown and this._docSearchResultsOnlyShown
flags to track when a single section is shown more cleanly.
We no longer need the timeout for checking if an item is drawn under
the pointer because we display search results in the main pane and there is
no lowering/raising of other overview actors going on as the results are
being displayed.
Select an item by default when the search results are displayed.
Enable moving from one section of search results to another with key navigation.
Reset the selection when the search is updated or a new page is displayed
or the transition between viewing multiple sections and viewing just one is made.
The windows we considered for both the app monitor and the overview
workspaces were the same, but the code was duplicated once in C, once

Make Button class purely about adding visuals, and use ShellButtonBox
for behavior. API equivalences:
shell.button => shell.actor [for consistency]
staysPressed parameter to constructor => replaced by manually setting
the 'active' property of button.actor as appropriate
pressIn/release => button.actor.active = true/false
enter-event/leave-event signals => button.actor notify::hover
Along the way, this fixes a bug with the user status menu where it was
not getting set to active because the button was getting a leave
(triggered by the menu popping up and grabbing the pointer) before for
button release, which disabled the staysPressed behavior.

For Firefox/OpenOffice, right now we have a workaround in the
code where we look at their "title" property. However, we
weren't monitoring that property for changes, and I'm fairly
certain Firefox at least was mapping a window and then very
quickly changing its title after. So we need to handle
dynamic changes.
Split out the wm_class mapping from the title hack. It was
messy and weird to have the two mixed because they're not
at all related, and we're not trying to handle WM_CLASS changes
right now.
Explicitly connect to notify::title in the case where we had
a title fallback. When a title changes, just treat it as
an add+remove.
In the Application Menu area in the panel, hook up to app-added
and app-removed so we get notification of the active app changing.
Display only first page of search results by default for each section and
allow clicking on the section header to view all the results for a given
section. This design will allow us to easily move from paging to scrolling
without having to stack multiple scrollbars in a single pane.
Display a total results count next to the section name. This serves as an
indicator that there are more results. The section header pre-lights to
indicate that it can be clicked on.
Make sure we go back to the first page of results when we exit a single
section mode. Make sure we re-instate all result sections if the search
mode is left.
Close the only section search mode on Esc, and only close the search
when Esc is hit again.
We now have functionality in Mutter to grab the keyboard on behalf
of a plugin. This avoids interactions with the key handling code
in Mutter that could leave the user with an inconsistent state
and no way to get out of it.
src/shell-global.[ch]: Change shell_global_grab_keyboard() and
shell_global_grab_keyboard() to shell_global_begin_modal()
shell_global_end_modal() and call mutter_plugin_begin_modal()
mutter_plugin_end_modal() rather than directly grabbing the
keyboard.
main.js: Call global.begin_modal/end_modal from Main.startModal()
and Main.endModal()
altTab.js; Remove call to Main.startModal() - we're letting Mutter
handle modality for Alt-Tab.
main.js lookingGlass.js overview.js runDialog.js: Rename
Main.startModal() to Main.beginModal() for consistency with
naming in mutter and ShellGlobal.

Display search results in the dash instead of showing them in a separate pane.
We get dynamic allocation for the section height based on the number of
results, but a lot of the problems with the previous search results display,
such as displaying empty sections and paging overflow are still present.
Also, we don't yet close the browse pane for applications or documents when
we display the search results and only replace it if we are showing the
details pane, so all that looks weird. We'll need to work out the interaction
for these cases.
This fixes a bug where we were already using this._hotCorner
in _onHotCornerEnvironsLeft() and were incorrectly setting
this._hotCornerEntered to false when the hot corner was
re-entered from the environs.
Rather than just launching if we weren't already running, always
relaunch, which happens to make Firefox, etc. work. See
the comment in the commit for more explanation.
Add drag and drop. We need to be able to recreate the icon texture,
so instead of passing it directly into PlaceDisplay, pass
a factory function which knows how to create a new texture.
The design has smaller icons in two columns. Add a new
custom display to docDisplay for it.
Clean up some of the texture cache handling for recent URIs so
it's not size-dependent, since the dash size is now different
from the default GenericDisplay size.
We had multiple copies of the code to position a drag actor given a particular
source. Instead, just put it inside dnd.js.
Second, rather than test for GenericDisplay/WellDisplayItem etc.,
in various places, add a new method on each source "shellWorkspaceLaunch"
which both marks the item as being droppable on a workspace, and is
called by the workspaces code to launch the item.
Use MetaGroup for a window when looking up applications. If
we know the application for a TYPE_NORMAL window in the group,
use that.
However, we aren't always going to know the application for a window. In
that case, create a fake one.
ShellAppInfo has a "transient" flag so we know not to write these
fake apps to the usage file.
Clean up the idle focus handler to better handle the case where
no window is focused, and where we don't want to track the
particular window.
Update track_window to create the fake window.
When a window goes away, we want to delete the usage.
Rewrite shell_app_monitor_get_running_apps to be based
on the window_to_app hash, because that's what has the pointer
to ShellAppInfo*. Before we were looking up all ids through
ShellAppSystem, but that shouldn't be holding a ref to transients.
Change the well display icon to be centered, since our icons for
window apps aren't 48 pixels.
Using a larger area around the hot corner to decide if the user has left the
hot corner prevents triggering the hot corner multiple times due to an
accidental jitter.
We need to use the -lib variant which in turn uses the
GETTEXT_PACKAGE define, because the default translation
domain is actually mutter, not gnome-shell.
We don't have a lot of strings, and what ones we do have we've
been avoiding duplication. This patch adds calls to _() i.e. gettext
for those strings we do have.
The maximize effect looked really ugly. In the absence of any cooler
effects, none at all is better than what we have. Current compiz
doesn't have one either.
Note that in the future when we merge the frame into the panel
in the maximize case, we may want an effect for that.
Instead of counting on the implicit sizing of ClutterGroup, which isn't
going to work well because of current limitations of ClutterClone, set
the size of workspace explicitly based on the screen size.
This should fix various problems with drag-and-drop being unreliable;
if a workspace was sized to big it could overlap other workspaces or
elements of the overview.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=591643
There was some weirdness relating to when the search pane is shown
in a timeout, and how that relates to setSearch. Instead of doing
this in the timeout, just call setSearch() in the timeout. The
pane hide/show state is directly controlled from the handler.
Currently ShellAppMonitor relies on all the .desktop files being
loaded. We should initialize it very early to ensure that anything
that uses it has up-to-date information right away.
Remove the last use of passing width into Dash by having the
Pane with the previews scaling dynamically and relying on
Clutter scaling.
If we only have one workspace, don't display a selection frame
for it.
Rework Dash into a searchArea and sectionArea, which get
explicitly sized by overlay.js. We use the workspaces size
to choose the size of those dash areas.
Switch dash colors/boxes etc. to ones from shell-black02.
Add a gradient to the panel.
Add a magnifier.svg for use in search.
minWidth and minHeight arguments of the Button class were not used.
Panel buttons need their height to be explicitly specified as
PANEL_HEIGHT to take up full panel height. This fixes the problem with the
user not being able to click at the very top edge of the panel to activate
the button.
This is a start at the "Active Appliction Item" component of the
shell design. Currently we just show the currently focused
application. When launching a new application, we show that as well.
The implementation here is not complete; basically when launching
we de-focus the active one, and the application well shows the
most recent startup sequence.
This kind of fails in the case of multiple sequences, and we
also don't correctly de-focus the current window in other
launch paths.
There was lots of fixed positioning in the Panel; now it is completely
dynamic, and width/height is driven from main.js. We still have a
global constant Panel.PANEL_HEIGHT, but this is a big step towards
eliminating it.
Also, this avoids overdraw in the "way too many tray icons" case. The
clock will shift left.
Replace 'overlay' with the more descriptive name 'overview'
where the Activities Overview is meant. Call it Overview
(capitalized) in code comments.
The overlay-group and overlay-key provided by Mutter are not
affected, since they may be used for other components than
the Activities Overview.
Instead of only transforming the active workspace, create a
zooming effect when showing or hiding the overlay. This makes
the transitions simpler: the workspaces are now fixed to the
overlay actor group and will not slide over the Dash.
overlay.js: Add zoom animations, fade in/out Dash during those,
remove obsolete Dash clipping and stacking logic, add public
get[Scale|Position]() and getZoomedIn[Scale|Position]()
functions.
workspaces.js: Remove zoom animations, add fade animations for
the remove button, add helper functions for the overlay
zooming, keep the movement of windows linear to that of
their workspaces, remove the updatePosition() and
updateInOverlay() functions and fullSize variables that
were left from the old overlay design.
The "expanded background" that is behind the workspaces etc. in the overview
should be removed. It isn't in the designs, it is distracting, and it breaks
the overview metaphor.
At least temporarily, just make the background of the overview black.
Change the pane popup to black as well, but keep a blue border so that
it is visually distinguished from the background.
Based on a patch by Colin Walters, with fixes from Marina Zhurakhinskaya.
It's both intuitive to go to the corner of the screen
and click the activities button at the same time.
Both actions bring up the overlay, but combined
they cancel each other out. This commit makes
clicking the hot corner not cancel the act of
going to the hot corner.
Based on a patch from Ray Strode.
The scale of windows within a workspace is determined by the
scale of the workspace since we never scale a window bigger
than the original size of the window. So when we rescale
workspaces we have to rerun Workspace.positionWindows().
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=591124
The onComplete when positioning windows may come before the
final stage of the workspace positioning animation. So we can't
use actor.get_transformed_position() to figure out where to put
the icons. Compute the final position manually ourselves instead.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=591123
Both the position and size of the frame actor depend on the scale
of the workspace, so update them both when the scale changes.
On the other hand, the the frame actor doesn't need to be
repositioned when the workspace moves (since it is relative to the
workspace). We do base the frame position of the desktop actor, but
that will presumably stay fixed (at 0,0) in most all cases.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=591122
When Workspace._positionWindows is called, the clone might nto
yet have its final size (because of the clone is is a clone of
the window texture and the window texture isn't updated until
right before painting.) So get the size from the MetaWindow
instead ... the MetaWindow size is determined synchronously when
the window is managed.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=590741
Take everything in the ~/.gtk-bookmark lines after the URI
as label, not only the first word. (eg. if there's a line like
"file:///home/rainct/Ubuntu%20One Ubuntu One", now "Ubuntu One"
is taken as the label, instead of only "Ubuntu").
Pass the error variable to g_key_file_load_from_data_dirs in
Shell.AppSystem.get_default().load_from_desktop_file again, and
use a try/catch in places.js.
- Avoid error '"iconname" may be used uninitialized in this function'
by initializing said variable to NULL.
- Define shell_util_get_file_description as static (like the other
similar functions) to avoid another compiler error.
- Don't save errors from g_key_file_load_from_data_dirs into the
variable "error" (ie. pass NULL to it instead). Without this,
gnome-shell crashes if the key file can't be found (with message
"Error invoking Shell.load_from_desktop_file: Valid key file could
not be found in search dirs").
- Check the result of the load_from_desktop_file() call in places.js,
as it may be null.
Previously, ShellAppSystem only loaded (and cached) the set of
.desktop files from applications.menu and settings.menu, using
the gnome-menus library. The ShellAppInfo structure was
a "hidden typedef" for GMenuTreeEntry.
But we need to support loading an arbitrary .desktop file. Thus,
refactor the ShellAppInfo into a real struct, with a refcount,
and allow it to point to either a GMenuTreeEntry or a GKeyFile.
Also, in the case where we fail to lookup an icon for an
application, ensure we return a 0 opacity texture.
When WellGrid had no child it was doing a division by zero,
which screwed up the calculation for the height request and
having it ask for a negative number. This commit fixes this
by always requesting 0 in this case.
I've done some little modifications to the window positioning code
used in the overlay so that it considers the height of the windows
and they don't overlap or get out of the workspace.
I've also raised the hard-coded scales a bit to have the windows as
big as possible without overlapping (this could use some testing on
a non-widescreen monitor).
Use ShellGenericContainer to implement a fully dynamic layout
for the application well. It's still fixed to 4 columns by default,
but no longer requires a fixed width to be passed in on start.
With another chunk of work, it could likely try to adjust to
the case where we can only fit fewer than 4 items in the well.
Remove the border highlighting on mouseover, since that caused
reallocations, and the grid layout isn't trivial.
Delete the unused shell_global_get_word_with function.
The variables this._yOffset and this._xOffset are included in the
drop coordinates, but as far as I can tell never defined. Looking
back on the commit that introduced this code, they weren't removed
from anywhere else either.
The drop coordinates seem correct without them, so just delete them.
Use the 1x1 actor in the top left corner of the screen to enter and leave
the overview mode by just moving the mouse over to it.
No delay is used for triggering the hot corner because a delay significant
enough to allow moving away the mouse to avoid triggering it ruins the desired
flow when triggering the hot corner is actually intended.
The hot corner is not enabled in the full screen mode because the application
or the virtual system might have a hot corner of its own in that place.
It's easier to explicitly call Main.overlay.hide() instead
of chaining activation signals, this got lost in a mix between
the big dash rewrite and ongoing changes to the Application well.
To better distinguish between vast fields of white of which many
windows are composed, add the application icon to the bottom
right of the window.
We fade them in to avoid an abrupt feel. The icons are in the
workspaces group, not individual workspace groups to avoid
having to adjust them when we scale the workspaces.
Replace Workspace._lookupIndexAndClone with Workspace.lookupIndex,
and make the caller go from index to clone, or clone and index.
Emit the signal at the correct time to take action
on snapback (i.e. after the end of the snapback animation).
Add a boolean to the drag-end signal saying whether it was accepted,
which ensures consumers know whether the drag was successful.
Tweak arrangements with 2,3,4,5 windows in a desktop so:
- Windows are a bit bigger
- All windows for 5 windows are equally sized instead of making
the windows in the bottom row larger
This does cause some more problems with tall windows overlapping
or running off the edge of the workspace, but it's an overall
small improvement to the behavior.
Move the GStreamer initialization from the Javascript code into
shell_recorder_init(). This avoids a dependency on the GStreamer
introspection information and will make it easier to drop the
gir-repository module dependency.
Said function in genericDisplay.js was returning the index of the
actor based upon its position in the entire list, while everywhere
else indexes relative to the currently displayed page were used.
This made actions in the details pane break (bug #590949), so I
replace it with a new function in shell-overflow-list.c,
shell_overflow_list_get_actor_index, which is page based.
This patch is a near-total rewrite of the Dash. First, the dash
code moves into a separate file, dash.js.
Inside dash.js, the components are more broken up into separate
classes; in particular there's now a Pane class and a MoreLink
class. Instead of each section of the dash, when activated,
attempting to close all N-1 other sections, instead there
is the concept of a single "active pane", and when e.g. activating
the More link for documents, if we know there's an active pane
which happens to be the apps, close it.
Many redundant containers were removed from the dash, and all
manual width, height and x/y offsets are entirely gone. We move
the visual apperance closer to the design by using the view-more.svg,
etc.
To complete the removal of height/width calculations from the dash,
we also had to do the same for GenericDisplay. Also clean up
the positioning inside overlay.js so calculation of children's
positioning is inside a single function that flows from screen.width
and screen.height, so in the future we can stop passing the width
into the Dash constructor and call this once and work on screen
resizing.
The previous application monitoring code was originally designed
to be based on WM_CLASS, which was then resolved on a server.
We have that resolution code locally now, so instead
of saving WM_CLASS data, save application IDs.
Also, inside the WM we have a much better
infrastructure for tracking windows. In particular, rather
than polling, we can just watch for focus notification on
the display, and window add/remove.
Instead of polling XScreensaver, use DBus to watch org.gnome.Session
which already has an idle time watch.
Now there is no polling at all inside the monitor.
Add a Notebook class which we then use to pack in separate Hierarchy
and Properties tabs.
Split out the inspector into its own class to avoid bloat in the
main class.
5 seconds is should help ensure we lose work less often on
Alt-f2 restart.
Avoid saving empty lines to history, and filter them out if
we find them.
Minor fixes for the still-not-enabled inspector.
This patch attempts to adjust if we have many tray icons; currently
the simple algorithm is to drop down to a spacing of 8 if we have
more than 6. In the future we should fix the panel layout so that
the clock moves to the side.
Add a dropdown pane triggered by Alt-F2, "lg" which supports interactive
JavaScript evaluation, saving/restoring a history file, as well as
an inspector element to pick by using the mouse.
Using an internal boolean rather than the visibility property seems
more reliable to me. Add a list of internal functions rather than
an if/else chain, so for example an extension could hook something on.
Delete the javascript evaluator in favor of the upcoming lookingGlass.js.
We had duplicate code in appDisplay and workspaces for handling activating
a window; unify that inside workspaces, add an API to Main.overlay to
access it from both contexts.
Also, explicitly raise the clone we're activating to the top
before starting the animation to leave the overlay.
Two calls to _repositionDetails() were done too early,
before the visibility of the results pane had changed,
so they had no effect. Thus when a search was done while
a details pane was active, the pane with the results was
hidden by the details pane.
In addition to fixing this, move the two remaining calls to
the line after changing the results pane's visibility
to make it clearer why the calls are there.
Don't use a clone of an actor that's not part of the scene graph for the
item previews. This patch fixes previews in the details pane for documents
for which we don't have full previews and for applications.
Use create_icon_texture() from AppInfo instead of looking up the file
for gicon when creating an application icon for the details pane.
Now clicking on the information icon of the same item a second
time will hide the details pane. Clicking it another time will
show it again, etc.
This is achieved by adding a 'toggle-details' signal which
switches the visibility of the details pane.
Other than the necessary changes, function _selectIndex (in
genericDisplay.js) has been restructured a bit to avoid
duplicating checks.
The experiment with avoiding ellipsization was a definite failure;
several translations have very long names, and we'd end up
with a single column.
Also fix extra padding; we only want some space at the top, not
left/right.
Rename DocsWidget to RecentDocsWidget (as widgets for most used docs,
docs related to the currently open documents, etc. may be added in the
future), and change the title so that it doesn't abbreviate 'Docs' (for
consistency with the overlay).
Corresponding with the design, if an application is in a running
state (has > 0 windows open), draw a glow behind the name.
To make the display look a bit nicer, set the width of each item
to be equal to the longest word among all the items.
Make dash background darker so that the blue color used for indicating
running apps can be visible. Use the dark blue (almost black) color from
Jeremy's mockup.
Make the dash height be the full screen height minus the height of the panel.
Don't use padding on top or on the bottom.
Remove the border from the main dash, but leave it for the results and details
panes. Make the border slightly transparent.
Make sure the details pane is correctly positioned by not applying the
additional padding when determining its x position.
Timeout callback function should not be rescheduled again with the same timeout
because we compute a new timeout and schedule it again instead. So the callback
function needs to return false to not be scheduled again by default.
Make sure that we calculate the next update time correctly.
Store timeout time instead of the timeout delta, so that it doesn't get outdated.
Create a new callback when the time update happens for the original callback.
Make sure last visited time is updated in the details pane by keeping track
of the description actors created for the detail actors.
Add comments to the new functions.
