The existing units were never used as the corresponding support was
never merged into gnome-session.
This commits updates units to be usable with the newer gnome-session
unit definitions. Also added is appropriate failure/restart logic
including the ability to disable extensions. Note that extensions will
only be disabled if a failure happens in the first two minutes after
login.

As gnome-shell is a required component for GNOME sessions, gnome-session
will currently always try to autostart it. However as we are moving towards
using systemd's user instance for session startup, gnome-session should only
be responsible for launching the shell when either not running under systemd
or when we were built without systemd support.
gnome-session can detect the former but not the latter, so communicate this
via the newly added X-GNOME-HiddenUnderSystemd key in the .desktop file.

Our current Weather integration depends on poking around the app's
settings, which we cannot do when the app is sandboxed (as its
filesystem is "hidden away" in a container in that case).
So instead, use our own GSettings schema for the settings, and sync
it with GNOME Weather via a custom D-Bus interface.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/1158
The startup/busy indication in the app menu was left out of commit
22e21ad7d1 because it doesn't use a hard-coded image, but as the
image in the CSS is actually the same used by the spinner class,
drop the "custom" styling and use the regular spinner.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/636
Trying to disable an extension that is enabled by the session mode
currently has no effect, which is clearly confusing. We could update
the various extension UIs to reflect that via sensitivity, but being
unable to configure extensions based on which session the user picked
at login isn't obvious either.
So instead, add a 'disabled-extensions' gsettings key to list extensions
that should not be enabled which takes precedence over 'enabled-extensions'
and can be used to disable session mode extensions.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789852
The existing 'ExtensionStatusChanged' signal has a fixed set of parameters,
which means we cannot add additional state without an API break. Deprecate
it in favor of a new 'ExtensionStateChanged' signal which addresses this
issue by taking the full serialized extension as parameter.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789852
Extensions are currently enabled or disabled by directly changing the
list in the 'enabled-extensions' GSettings key. As we will soon add
an overriding 'disabled-extensions' key as well, it makes sense to
offer explicit API for enabling/disabling to avoid duplicating the
logic.
For the corresponding D-Bus API, the methods were even mentioned in
the GSettings schema, albeit unimplemented until now.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789852
While mutter supports a variety of different grid layouts (n columns/rows,
growing vertically or horizontally from any of the four corners), we
hardcode a fixed vertical layout of a single column.
Now that mutter exposes the actual layout to us, add support for a more
traditional horizontal layout as well.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/575
Unlike the app grid, we show the search results while the dash is hidden
and with a small scrollbar instead of page indicator dots. This
means there's nothing the search results might horizontally overlap
with and the padding here is unneccessary.
The spacing between the search results and the screen edges is still
sufficient because of the paddings applied to searchResultsContent.
On very small screens (< 1000px), this allows the search results to
utilize a lot more of the horizontal screen space.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/110
The functionality the searchResultsBin container provides can easily be
moved into a subclass of St.BoxLayout, no need for an additional StBin.
The "searchResultsBin" css class isn't used in the stylesheets either.
Same with the scrollChild container.

- generate the OSK key colors from variables in _colors.scss without changing the design
- add hover and active colors for all key, not only letter keys
- use $button_radius for the OSK keys, buttons and entries (no value change for the latter)

Adds the UI part for the pointer accessibility features.
The various timeouts running are notified using a pie-timer showing
under the pointer.
For dwell-click type selection, we use a drop-down menu. Users can
use the dwell-click to select the next type of dwell click to be
emitted.

This extends the ShellMountPasswordDialog by widgets which allow
specifying parameters supported by TrueCrypt and VeraCrypt compatible
volumes (TCRYPT). This includes:
- Whether the volume to be unlocked is hidden.
- Whether the volume to be unlocked is a system partition.
Note: TrueCrypt and VeraCrypt only support encrypting Windows
systems [1], so the label for this option is "Windows System Volume".
- Whether to use a PIM [2].
- Whether to use keyfiles. Unfortunately, GMountOperation doesn't
support TCRYPT keyfiles, so if this checkbox is checked, we tell the
user that they should unlock the volume with Disks, which supports
unlocking TCRYPT volumes with keyfiles.

solid disks for normal, hover and active states

This API has been broken for quite some time now as the corresponding
mutter function meta_monitor_manager_get_monitor_for_output was removed.
If anyone tries to use it, we would just run into a backtrace.

Selecting a screen area for a screenshot isn't the same as selecting
items in an icon view, so there's no strong rationale for picking
up the style from GTK. We stopped doing that for other elements like
tile previews long ago, so just use our own style here too.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/481
After the latest texture cache changes, loading the icon at its preferred
size and scaling it via the actor size no longer works. Instead, use the
icon-size property which is applied when loading the icon.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/452
While it is possible to register accelerators in-bulk, there is no
proper way to unregister them again. This adds the corresponding call
for UngrabAccelerator to allow ungrabbing multiple accelerators at the
same time.
The idea is that g-s-d can use this in the future to simplify the
keybinding reload logic.

If a result is displayed at the end of the search results, there should
obviously not be a line separating it from the next result underneath
it. To fix this, always hide the separator for the last result visible.

Here's a template string with '/' that escaped commit 94423151b2,
resulting in an xgettext warning when generating the .pot file.
Simply move it into the resource like the other interface descriptions
to make xgettext happy again.

Window titles aren't restricted in length, so the menu may end up unwieldily
width. Commit 0bec76b6ee therefore limited the app context menus, but that
got accidentally dropped in commit 0ded0dbfd5. Add back the limitation and
extend it to the new app menu as well.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/624
This keyboard works similar to GTK+'s emoji chooser (actually, both pull
from the same JSON file). Emojis are categorized in sections and variants
and kept in a "model".
The EmojiPager actor then uses this model to generate pages on-the-fly as
the user swipes around. This is an important optimization since the amount
of actors would rival with the rest of the shell otherwise.
The EmojiSelection object puts the EmojiPager, the page indicators and
a KeyContainer with the bottom row of emoji section shortcuts together to
implement the emoji panel as a whole.
The Keyboard object hooked this to an "emoji" key, which is just visible
on the Clutter.InputContentPurpose where showing an emoji would be
meaningful. Otherwise the surrounding buttons are made a bit wider to
cover up for it (i.e. as it was before).
The OSK panel uses 1/3rd of the monitor height, plus we specify a minimum
size for the keys. This doesn't play along if contents won't fit (short
monitor, big fonts, ...) pushing contents offscreen. Reduce the minimum
size a bit so there's better chances to fit.
Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/675
Since commit 447bf55e45 we turn the top bar translucent when
free-floating. While this looks fancy and reduces the appearance
of cutting into the available screen space, it has also had a
negative effect on legibility.
Nobody stepped up to address those issues in two years, so revert
back to the fully opaque top bar.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/408
While the current textual forecast is non-intrusive, it may be too
much so, making it less effective to spot the current conditions
at a glance.
Refresh the section to use a more conventional graphical representation,
similar to the one used by gnome-weather itself.

Having Unity-like shortcuts for activating the first nine applications
in the dash has been a long requested feature, but somehow nobody got
around to implement it.
As the shortcut is most useful outside the overview where the dash is
not visible, only consider favorite apps as they have a predictable
order.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=648000
The `GetWindows` method gives access to the list of windows for each
application with some of their properties, so utilities such as dogtail
can pick the window of their choice to interfere with using the provided
window id.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/326
Add a D-Bus API that allows the API user to introspect the application
state of the shell. Currently the only exposed information is list of
running applications and which one is active (i.e. has focus).
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/326
Commit dbf993300a moved all inline D-Bus interface descriptions to template
strings so we can stop escaping line breaks.
Unfortunately that unveiled a grave bug in xgettext, which currently cannot
handle files that contain both backtick and slash characters - as a result,
translations from affected files have started to disappear as translators
run xgettext/msgmerge.
Instead of reverting the change and getting the crusty escaping back, we
will take this as an opportunity to stop inlining the XML altogether and
load it from a resource instead.
To facilitate that, add a small helper method that loads a D-Bus interface
description from a dedicated resource bundle.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/537
We'll soon move the inlined XML of all interfaces we export or consume into
separate files. That's a significant increase from the interfaces for which
we install documentation, so it makes sense to use a dedicated subdir.

Reported by desktop-file-validate:
error: value "True" for boolean key "NoDisplay" in group "Desktop
Entry" contains invalid characters, boolean values must be "false" or
"true"
While the new per-desktop overrides in GIO are easier to use for
both developers and users, it is still inconvenient for everyone
who changed the defaults using the old overrides hack to lose
their settings. Address this by running a small script on startup
that migrates existing settings.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=786496
GSettings now recognizes per-desktop overrides that can be used
to change schemas' default values for a particular desktop. This
is not entirely unlike our existing custom override mechanism in
mutter, except that it is not limited to keys in org.gnome.mutter,
and it doesn't require a separate schema - the latter means that
we (and gnome-teak-tool) no longer have to figure out the correct
schema for the current login session and just use the original one.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=786496
Implement for barLevel an overdrive area. This is a zone represented via a
different styling to indicate that you are bypassing the normal zone of
a given level, without reaching yet the maximum limit.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=790280.
Reuse the BarLevel class to get similar drawing behavior as Slider.
Rename theme css impacted properties and ensure that the osdWindow
remains accessible.
Ensure we don't force setting a custom border color like on the OSD.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=790280.
We can simply request the symbolic variant from CSS so that we don't
have to append '-symbolic' to all the names. This will always make
it easier to pick up that information from external sources (like
.desktop files).
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/433
Make the indicator for active remote access use the warning color, to
indicate the severity of allowing remote access.
This only makes the indicator icon orange; the icon in the system menu
is still white.
So that we can be started by systemd --user, instead of gnome-session.
There are three units:
- gnome-shell.service: Start gnome-shell itself.
- gnome-shell-x11.target, gnome-shell-wayland.target: Sync points for
units that need to care if x11 or wayland is in use.
gnome-settings-daemon will use these, for example.

In places where numbers appear in columns (like the calendar widget) or
where changing numbers would result in labels jiggling around due to
small width changes (like the clock), use the newly added
font-feature-settings support to request tabular figures.

After the move to Gitlab, the gnome-shell-sass repository is more
exposed than it used to; clarify that it is not the place where
style changes should happen, but rather the corresponding subtree
in the gnome-shell repository.
* Remove tiny padding of user-list
* Less space between avatar and username
* Apply the 1em padding only to the user-widget, not the timed-login-indicator
Adjust the previous commit which applied the alignment to :first-child
descendants, instead of only immediate children. This fixes alignment
issues for a number of Shell extensions by making it easier to override
with a .popup-menu-item style-subclass.
find_program() defaults to require the program in question, and as
failing to locate it is now fatal, there's no longer a need for
checking whether it was found later.
Spotted by Michael Catanzaro.
Enter/shift/layout/hide buttons have been made to use our own assets, key
labels have been made slightly bigger, and incorrect padding has been
removed from the extended keys popovers.

The previous implementation of the CSS generation logic considered sassc
an optional dependency and made sure for that reason that the result CSS
files ended up in the source directory, so that they could be checked
in and kept in sync with the source sass files.
As we are making sassc a required dependency, we can now stop doing that
extra work and simply rely on the CSS files being automatically generated
each time the sass sources change. By doing this, we can now effectively
get rid of the CSS files checked in the repo as well as of the parse_sass.sh
script, since the CSS files will now live on the build directory only.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=792822
As the style has grown bigger and more complex, generating the different
variants from a common source has been a good decision. However given how
intertwined the theme is with gnome-shell itself, relying on a submodule
has proven to be quite painful. And as things stand right now, it is going
to get worse:
- using either pre-generated CSS or generating it at build time is
odd, and violates meson's strict separation between source- and
build directories; we are therefore considering dropping the CSS
and depending on sassc to always generate it at build time
- with the migration to gitlab, our workflow shifts decisively towards
branches; however there is no support in either git or gitlab for
handling two brances of separate repositories consecutively, which
gets particularly awkward for branches in a private namespace
With those pain points in mind, we will adjust our setup as follows:
- remove the submodule from gnome-shell and instead import the
sass as subtree
- after that, the sass sources can be changed like any other files
in the repository, and regular contributors can forget that there
was ever anything special about them
- whenever we want to update the classic style, we can push the subtree
changes and bump gnome-shell-extension's sass submodule
In other words: Updating the classic styling will become slightly more
painful, but not much and only for me; in return, everyone else can
stop fiddling with submodules (and buy me a beer).
