On button-release, a threshold is used to determine if the gesture
should be considered a click and thus ignored. While the drag is
active though, the controlled actor is dragged immediately. As a
result, dragging by a tiny amount does not trigger a snap back when
the action is interpreted as a click. As a fix, do not update the
dragged actor's position until the same threshold is passed.

The main overview group starts capturing events on button-press
events to implement swipe-scrolling. While reactive children of
the group which handle both button-press and button-release events
don't trigger swipe-scrolling, children that only rely on
button-release have stopped working - at least the primary/secondary
icons of the search entry are affected. While the capture handler
already checks the pointer movement between press and release to
determine whether the action should be considered a click rather
than a drag, it still blocks the release event from propagating.
Instead, only block release events for drag actions, but not for
clicks.

With general support for swipe-scrolling in the overview, there is
no reason to limit the behavior to workspaces. It is equally useful
for scrolling through the grid of available applications, so enable
swipe-scrolling for the app view.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=635034
The workspaces view allows to drag the active workspace to swipe-scroll
to the next or previous workspace. While this behavior can come in handy
in general, there are good reasons to move the functionality to the
overview:
- Finding a spot on a workspace to start a drag can be hard,
especially when the workspace contains a single window
- With the new layout, workspaces have no visible border, making
it hard to predict where a drag can be initiated
- The same behavior is equally useful for other elements
So add setScrollAdjustment() to the overview, which allows setting
an adjustment controlled with swipe-scrolling (either horizontally
or vertically); only a single adjustment can be controlled at a
time. A swipe-scroll can be initiated on any part of the background that
is not occupied by a reactive actor. For cases where further control
is needed, 'swipe-scroll-start' and 'swipe-scroll-end' signals are
emitted.

Drag monitor functions are supposed to return a value, but
_onDragMotion() does not always do so. Add the missing return
value and remove unnecessary else.
As Gdk.Device.get_state() does not work properly from Javascript,
we used to block it in the environment. The method now has been
annotated with (skip), causing shell to crash on startup as only
existing methods may be blocked.
Just remove the block in question, as the annotation prevents the
use of that method anyway.
Currently we reset the timeout on every mouse movement which means
the user has to keep the mouse at the exact same position for 1.25
seconds.
Be more tolerant and allow the user to move the mouse over the
window without reseting the timeout, which should make activating
windows easier.

g_settings_schema_new() aborts if the requested schema is not found,
so the previous approach of handling the case of unstable nautilus
not being installed did not work.
Instead, remove the use of the setting altogether - the original intent
was to not have separate items for Desktop and Home in the places
section if the nautilus key was set. As the section has been removed
anyway, the impact of always adding the desktop folder is minimal
(e.g. searching for "desktop" will match the desktop folder even
if it's set to the home folder).
The latest development version of nautilus has been ported to
GSettings, which we now use as well for the desktop-is-home-dir
preference. Obviously, the required schema is only available if
a recent enough nautilus version is installed. Instead of adding
yet another module to the moduleset, catch the exception and
ignore the preference in case the schema is not available.

Right now popModal() passes global.get_current_time() for

If the switcher is destroyed without ever being fully shown (either
because it couldn't get a keyboard grab, or just because there are no
apps to display), destroy it immediately rather than tweening it
towards destruction, since its contents haven't been built yet and
_allocate() will throw errors if it runs.
The gnome-panel allows the user to hover over a tasklist entry
while draging to activate a minimized or obscured window and drop onto it.
Implement a similar behaviour by allowing draging to the activities button or
the hotcorner (and thus opening the overview), which allows the user to
activate any window (even on different workspaces) as a drop target.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=601731
When the user is doing a drag-and-drop, we want to temporarily show the
stage to allow them to drag to a different window. But we're not "really"
in the overview, and getting a grab would conflict with the X client doing
the drag and drop.
So add a showTemporarily()/hideTemporarily() pair of methods that show
the overview without grabbing.
This adds a lot more possibilities for asynchronous race conditions, so
rework the code to be more robust against multiple calls to show*()
and hide*(). The interpretation is now that all calls to show*() and
hide*() affect the state, but if we have conflicting calls to show and
hide we wait until the current animation is finished before correcting
to the right visual state.

Fix the panel menus to avoid unnecessarily bouncing out of modal (bug
634194) and to do a better job of keeping the keyboard focus in the
right place
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618885
Until recently, the clutter keyboard focus was almost always kept on
the stage, and bits of code that wanted to do stuff with the keyboard
would just watch for key-press-events on the stage. In several places,
the code wasn't even bothering to ensure that the focus was on the
stage, which caused problems with other actors that explicitly grabbed
focus.
A previous fix for this (f21403fd) was to always reset the focus to
the stage after calling pushModal(), but a better fix is to just
actually make use of the keyboard focus everywhere rather than having
everyone try to read events off the stage.
Now pushModal(actor) also does actor.grab_key_focus(), and various
bits of code have been changed to read key events off their own
toplevels rather than off the stage, meaning there's no chance of them
accidentally getting someone else's events.

According to the designers, system notifications should be transient;
so now that transient notifications are supported properly, make use
of it instead of using a timeout to remove the associated source.
Transient notifications are removed after being shown. If the summary
is being shown while they appear, they are represented in it by a new
source icon.
We always create a new source for new transient notifications to
ensure that they don't replace the latest persistent notification
associated with the source. Because we generally don't want any
new or resident notifications to be replaced by others, associating
multiple notifications with a source is the next thing we will
implement.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=633412
Resident notifications don't get removed when they are clicked or
one of their actions is invoked, and are only removed when the app
that created them requests them to be removed or sends another
notification.
Remove the source when a notification associated with it is removed.
Except if the source is a tray icon.
Make sure that we pop down the tray when a notification is clicked
or one of the actions of a non-resident notification is selected.

This basic point of this change is to avoid always creating a
hidden Clutter.Clone actor for the default present-but-not-active
zoom region. The position of the viewport and region of interest
are now stored in member variables, and the actors are only created
and updated when the region is active.
Other significant changes:
* Unused public functions are removed or made private
* The mouse tracking position is immediately updated when options
like the zoom are changed, not just on the next mouse motion.
* ZoomRegion.setROI() now updates the zoom, not just the position;
a FIXME is added to the D-Bus interface for a place where the
D-Bus interface contains duplicate possibly conflicting information
* Lens-mode is now only effectively off when the magnifier is
fullscreen, instead of actually modifying the member variable;
this makes things work properly when changing out of full-screen
mode.
* When the clamping to screen edges is turned on, we now immediately
clamp.
* The handling of setting the position to fullscreen as compared
to just setting the viewport to fullscreen is untangled.

Overlaying inactive workspaces with a gradient to fade out the actors

While scaling the desktop background with the window previews represents
workspaces quite intuitively, the approach is not without problems.
As window previews in the overview behave quite differently to "real"
windows, the representation of workspaces as miniature versions of
"real" workspaces is flawed. The scaling also makes the transitions
to and from the overview much more visually expensive, without adding
much benefit.
Leaving the background in place provides more visual stability to the
transitions and emphasizes the distinctive behavior of elements in the

Previously, when snapping back a drag actor, we moved it back to its
original stage-relative position and scale. This worked fine if its
parent was still in the same place it was when the drag started, but
failed in cases like the linear workspace layout window drag-and-drop,
where dragging a window would "zoom out" its parent workspace, causing
the snapback to send it to the wrong place.

have been right now if it were still at its original scale and
position within its original parent actor" rather than "where it was
before the drag started"

gnome-volume-control-applet was renamed to gnome-sound-applet when
moved to the control-center module, so we need to check for both names
when identifying the legacy status icon.
It was decided at GNOME Summit that we would remove the invisible
setting until we have a better story for how it works with chat
and other sharing/messaging applications. We'd also need to
figure out how it relates to busy.
The action is far less common than powering off. It is mostly
used for performing system updates so the update tool should
offer the option directly. Also, currently the Shut Down option
dialog offers Restart anyway. We would like to keep the number
of entries in this menu as limited (close to 7) as we can.
Switch from St.TextureCache.load_named_icon() to using St.Icon for named
icons. Along with the advantage of getting colorization right for symbolic
icons, this allows moving some icon sizes into the CSS.
In the CSS, the system status icon size is changed to be 1em (=16px for the
default font size), at the request of the artists. See bug 613448.

gnome-settings-daemon has moved to GSettings for most settings, we

Waiting for LookingGlass to close after calling St.set_slow_down_factor()
is annoying so divide the time for opening and closing by the slow-down

As popup menus now take focus for keyboard navigation, no application
is focused when activating the menu. Use the target application instead,
which keeps track of the application currently associated with the menu.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634103
Action names sometimes unintentionally overlap with icon names, so
we should only create icon buttons if the message tray source requests
it. For the notification daemon, this is done by setting the
'action-icons' hint on the notification.
The previous notification server capability used to advertise this
feature, "x-gnome-icon-buttons", has been removed in favour of the
new capability described in the notification spec, "action-icons".

We shouldn't hide the tray as quickly if the user might have left it
unintentionally, such as when moving the mouse over to a different tray item or
using the scroll bar in the chat notification.

This way the new modal level is independent of whatever may have been
happening before. Fixes a problem with status menus becoming active
again from inside the app switcher, etc.
Tray icons replaced by a shell version are automatically filtered
and never make to the tray container, but when removed by the client
we were still trying to remove them from the tray, causing a warning.

Each menu is a focus manager group, but there is also some explicit

The constructor was setting this.active to reflect the switch state,

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

When there are menu items with right-aligned items, all the

Rename a few, and add Suspend and Restart, although currently they do

In the new mockups, the user menu icons are on the right, not the
left.
Also, get rid of the idea of optional icons; the design doesn't have
icons on those items, and there probably aren't going to be symbolic
versions of some of those icons anyway. So if the caller specifies
PopupImageMenuItem, then always show an icon, and just use regular
PopupMenuItems for the items that don't have icons in the current
design.

Although within St itself there are situations where the semantics of
these functions (return TRUE or FALSE and return the actual value in
an out parameter) is useful, it's mostly just annoying at the
application level, where you generally know that the CSS property is
going to specified, and there is no especially sane fallback if it's
not.
So rename the current methods to lookup_color, lookup_double, and
lookup_length, and add new get_color, get_double, and get_length
methods that don't take an "inherit" parameter, and return their
values directly. (Well, except for get_color, due to the lack of (out
caller-allocates) in gjs.)
And update the code to use either the old or new methods as appropriate.

Tray icons control their own lifespan; they're not supposed to
disappear when you dismiss their notifications like non-trayicon
notification sources do.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=631042
Previously, when you clicked on a notification, it would call
this.source.clicked(), which would emit a 'clicked' signal on the
source, and then various other stuff would happen from there. This
used to make a little bit of sense, when clicking on a notification
was supposed to do the same thing as clicking on its source, but makes
less sense now, when clicking on the source itself *doesn't* call
source.clicked()...
Change it so that when you click on a notification, the notification
emits 'clicked' itself, and the source notices that and calls its
notificationClicked() method, and the various source subclasses do
what they need to do with that, and Source no longer has a clicked
method/signal.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=631042
Redo the way that the summary item expand/collapse animation works so
that the items all resize in unison so that when moving from one to
another, the summary area as a whole stays a constant width rather
than wobbling slightly.
(Also rename all references to the "minimum" summary item title width,
since it's not a minimum, it's just the width.)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=630546
This fixes the bug when the body would be missing from the expanded notification
that has a short body that used to fit in the one-line banner and is expandable
because it has action buttons.
We always want to add the banner to the body of an expandable notification,
unless the notification has custom content. We used to only do that when
creating this._scrollArea for the content. We should also do that when creating
this._actionArea .

It's possible that an item that was added to the summary got removed before
we had a chance to show the summary because the user has interacted with
the notification (e.g. clicked on an application ready notification). We should
not be showing the summary with an unchanged set of items in this case.
However, it is possible that multiple items were added to the summary before
we had a chance to show the summary, and only some of them got removed. In view
of this scenario, we can't just use a boolean flag to indicate if the summary
needs to be shown, but have to maintain an array of new summary items instead.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=630939
Environment.init() uses Shell.Global, which is not accessible outside

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

PopupMenuManager now connects to the destroy signal of PopupMenu, so

Icons can be loaded as St.Icon.SYMBOLIC, FULLCOLOR, APPLICATION or
DOCUMENT. The first will look for a symbolic equivalent, the second
looks for a full-color version (and does fallback, eg, from
"drive-harddisk-usb" to "drive-harddisk"). APPLICATION and DOCUMENT do
full-color icons without fallback (as specified by the icon spec).
And update various callers to use the right flags.

Both current design and new mockups use square icons. Currently this
is implemented by setting a fixed width and height in the CSS, which
does not work for the growing/shrinking items in the new sidebar.
By moving the assumption of square items into the code, the size will
adjust according to icon size, spacing, padding and font size if not
explicitly overwritten in the CSS.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=625887
The current design features a sidebar where the icon size shrinks
automatically to fit more items. Add a setSizeManually parameter
to BaseIcon, which disables sizes read from CSS and allows to use
BaseIcon.setIconSize() to support this.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=625887
All mockups now use a representation for documents/places similar to

The actor emitted by ShellTrayManager is now ShellTrayIcon, a subclass
of ShellGtkEmbed which has several properties on it which are (or will
soon be) useful to the shell.
Part of the rearranging to use ShellTrayIcon means that we now show
the ShellEmbeddedWindow before creating its ShellGtkEmbed, which
requires a few modifications to ShellEmbeddedWindow (notably, telling
it at construct time what stage it will be drawn on, since it needs to
know that before it has a ShellGtkEmbed now).

Resolve a notification's ShellApp before posting the notification, so
that notification sources now always have an app associated (assuming
they came from an app as opposed to the command line). Index sources
by PID rather than by appName (so that, eg, multiple calls to
notify-send now show up as separate sources).
For Sources that have an associated app, use the app's icon for the
source, rather than tracking the notification icon.
This change also lets us get rid of appNameMap, since we can just use
shell_app_get_name() now.

Introduce the Universal Access status indicator as designed, modeled
after the similar UI provided by g-s-d. This indicator allows the user

This patch allows the icon in PopupImageMenuItems to be changed at

This patch ensures the following notifications behavior:
- Urgent notifications that have long title or banner text are auto-expanded
correctly.
- Single-line notifications that have _expandNotification() called (e.g.
because the user mouses over to them), are treated as expanded, which means
they get fully expanded if they are updated with more content and the user
can escape them.
- The position of expanded notifications is updated when they are updated.
- Notification banner is shown again on the first line if it can fully fit
there after a notification is updated, even if it was previously hidden
because the notification was expanded and the old banner did not fully fit.
- New notifications are immediately hidden if the user mouses away from them.
- If a new notification is updated while it is shown, we extend the time it
will be shown.
- If a new notification is updated while it is hiding, we stop hiding it and
show it again.
- If a summary notification is updated while it is hiding, we let it finish
hiding and show a new notification with the updated information.
Implementation details:
- Single-line notifications now have 4px bottom padding instead of 8px, which
means that their height matches the tray height, they are fully shown in the
banner mode, and don't pop out by 4px when the notification is expanded.
- Notification keeps a flag that indicates whether it is expanded, updates
its expanded look when it is updated, and emits an 'expanded' signal
indicating that its layout has possibly changed. The message tray connects
to this 'expanded' signal when it is showing a notification in the expanded
state and updates the position of the notification accordingly when this
signal is received so that the notification is fully shown. This is better
than connecting to 'notify::height' signal on the notification bin, since
it results in fewer callbacks.

The Shell is the only user of the magnifier, so there's no
reason to keep using GConf for its settings. Since it's a
session-wide tool, use a distinct schema,
org.gnome.accessibility.magnifier, stored in
/desktop/gnome/accessibility/magnifier just like before.
Put these settings in a separate schema file for clarity.
Old enums in GConf were stored as integers, we now use the
facilities provided by GSettings to save them as strings,
and convert them to integers automatically thanks to the
mapping stored in the schemas. Remove hard-coded default values,
which we can get from the schemas.

Expanding notifications automatically just because they popped up where
the pointer is positioned distracts the user. It can also lead to a behavior
that is surprising to the user by, for example, making the user's input
switch to the notification's text entry box.
It is possible to expand a notification that popped up over the pointer
by mousing away from it and then mousing back in immediately.

We used to keep long titles ellipsized when a notification was expanded,
which was a bug. We now show them fully by line wrapping them.
Based on the original patch from Steven Van Bael.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=623970
We used 'bannerBody' flag to differentiate the case when we move the banner to
the body when the notification is expanded from the one when we don't do that
and only use the custom content set for the notification, as is the case for
Telepathy notifications. We also always cleared the content of the notification
on update when bannerBody was set to true.
Flag named 'customContent' reflects the use case for it more clearly. The
comments that accompany it were also updated and improved.
We now always add the banner text as the first element in the expanded
notification unless 'customContent' flag is set to true.
If the 'body' parameter is specified, we use it in addition to the banner
text. The earlier version of the code had a bug that resulted in the 'body'
parameter not being set only in the case when the 'bannerBody' was set to
true and the banner text had newlines in it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=623970
The banner should not be appearing briefly when we are hiding the notification.
For that, we should only restore the opacity of the banner in popInCompleted()
when we are done hiding the notification. We do need to restore the opacity
in case the notification is updated and is shown in the banner mode again.
The banner should not be appearing briefly when we are showing the notification
in the summary mode. For that, we should not use the animation time to fade out
the banner in popOut() for summary notifications.
These two problems were particularly visible when the ANIMATION_TIME was increased.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=623970
In Clutter 1.2, clutter_event_get_keysym() ignored the state of the
Shift key. In 1.4, it does not, so we have to adjust our comparisons
accordingly.

The old calculation did not take into account the icon and the spacing
between columns. This resulted in the notifications that had a slightly
longer title/banner combination than could actually fit not being expandable.
The new calculation is done in _bannerBoxAllocate() so
that we don't need to hardcode which other elements are present.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=627985
A Source needs exactly one summary icon (which in the case of a
trayicon-based source won't even be just an image), but possibly many
notification icons, which may vary for successive notifications
(particularly in the case of NotificationDaemon notifications). So
differentiate these cases in the API.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=627303
The tray itself does not actually need them, and to make status icon
sources work correctly the NotificationDaemon will need to be tracking
its sources by two separate IDs, so the existing system won't work.
Also remove MessageTray.removeSourceByApp(), which is
NotificationDaemon-specific, and implement the functionality in
notificationDaemon.js instead.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=627303
The current search system uses the OR operator to concatenate search
terms. While results which are matched multiple times sort before
other matches, it is almost guaranteed that adding an additional term

surprising.

When calling Notification.update, reuse the previous _bannerBox and
related labels (only changing the label content and relayouting), so
that the opacity set on popOut is preserved. As a consequence, updating
an opened notification no longer shows (or flicker) the banner at the
top.

In addition to already grabbing focus in the summary notifications,
we also want to grab focus in the new notifications when the user
hovers over them and expands them.
The notifications that expand automatically will only get focus once
the user hovers over them. The notifications that don't expand will
never grab focus because they don't need it.
Make sure that we toggle the way we grab focus when switching between
the overview and the main mode. This is necessary because, unlike
summary notifications that pop down when the user moves between the two
modes, new notifications keep being shown as long as the user hovers
over them or until they time out.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617224
Because clicking on the summary item to have it display its notification
is a more deliberate action than hovering, we can now grab focus in that
notification. This makes chat notifications in the summary more convenient
to use because you don't need to click on the text entry there.
We pop down the notification when the user clicks anywhere outside of it,
triggers the overview, or the run dialog.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617224
This ensures that the summary appears when we are showing a new
notification and switch to the overview at the same time.
Another effect of this patch is that the summary is shown if the
user moves the mouse to the bottom right corner while a notification
is being shown, which is ok.
This patch adds the method "removeMenu" to PopupMenuManager, to allow
for removal of menus after they're inserted. In order to do this, it
needs to store along with the menu all the relevant signal connections,
that are disconnected when the menu is removed.
Also adds a parameter "position" to "addMenu", so that menus can added
in arbitrary order (in particular to reintroduce those which were removed).
This patch is intended towards dynamic menu users, like extensions for
application lists, docks, sidebars showing recent documents or favourites,
as well as advanced system tray implementations.

In GSettings, a change notification is generated immediately from context of the _set() call.
In GConf, The "value_changed" signal is emitted whenever the server
notifies your client program that a value has changed in the database (100% NOT from context of the _set() call).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=624296
We need to only connect to 'action-invoked' on notification once
when the notification is created. We were accumulating callbacks
otherwise, which resulted, for example, in the Rhythmbox skipping
through multiple tracks when the 'Next' button was hit.
Always be sure to destroy the notification when its source is
destroyed, which is the case when an action is invoked.
Note that in the future, we might not want to destroy the source
for some notifications when an action is invoked. For example,
it makes sense to keep Rhythmbox in the tray while the music is
playing and allow the user to use the controls from the summary
notification too.
Solved by splitting the base class (PanelMenuButton) in a separate
module, ui.panelMenu, which is meant to hold also other reusable
button classes.

We should not be showing the cursor in the search entry in the overview
if the user's input will be appearing elsewhere, such as in the run dialog,

This is part of the design update for the message tray.
Source now takes an extra argument called 'title'.

Use GSettings for all Shell configuration. GConf is kept to read
configuration from external programs (Metacity, Nautilus and Magnifier),
but ShellGConf is removed because it's mostly useless for the few calls
we still have. Also get rid of unused GConf code in ShellAppSystem.
A basic GConf schema is still used to override Metacity defaults and
configure Magnifier in a system-wide fashion. GConf is also used as
GSettings backend via the GSETTINGS_BACKEND environment variable.
All of this will be removed when these programs have been ported
to GSettings and able to use dconf.
GLib 2.25.9 is required. Schemas are converted to the new XML format,
and compiled at build time in data/ so that the Shell can be run from
the source tree. This also requires setting the GSETTINGS_SCHEMA_DIR

The shell design says that upon launching an application,
no X window should have focus, and we should display an
animated launching indicator.
Implement this by in panel.js, keep track of the last started
application. If there isn't currently an X focus, show an animation
for the last starting application.

Canonical replaced status icons with libindicator based solutions,
which don't work in the shell environment. Force the distro-patched

While zoomed out in drag mode, the workspaces at the left and right
of the active workspace are slightly transparent - when switching
workspaces, one of the transparent workspaces becomes the new active
workspace, but its opacity is not updated.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=620940
When in drag mode, the linear view raises a transparent actor
covering the entire stage. That way the view can handle events
like dragging items to the screen edges, but in order to not
disable any drop target not handled by itself, it duplicates
huge amounts of code from dnd.js.
Cleanup that mess by using the new drag monitoring support.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=620504
Sometimes it is desirable to be able to react to DND events that
happen outside a target actor's bounds, e.g. to implement reactive
screen edges. Add a simple interface which allows to hook into
drag motion and drop handling without jumping through ugly hoops.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=620504
The design calls for item to not appear abruptly, but not too slow
either - 100ms seems to be a good sweet spot for elements which are
supposed to appear "instantly".
Add a fade effect to the alt-tab popup and set the timings for other
fade effects to 100ms.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621247
We query the transformed position and size of the popupMenu before actually showing
it which results into wrong positioning, when displaying it for the first time.
In case of the statusMenu this can even result into it being offscreen.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621385
Add _st_actor_contains() in st-private for use within St, and
monkey-patch in a Clutter.Actor.contains() for use by javascript, and
then replace all the duplicate implementations with one or the other
of those.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621197
Currently, we use 'gtk-yes', 'gtk-no' and 'gtk-media-pause' as
user status icons. It seems more logical to use the dedicated
icons from gnome-icon-theme instead.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=620374
First, we were passing an incorrect timestamp to
meta_display_focus_the_no_focus_window - fix that.
The invocation of set_focus_app to the started app there couldn't
really work, because (if the above call had worked) we'd get the
X reply *after* the started app.
What we need to untangle here is the distinction that's now made in
ShellApp between _STATE_STARTING and _STATE_RUNNING. A nice way to
start doing this is to rebase ShellWindowTracker to only be concerned
with app states. Concretely, the current "has windows implies
running" logic now lives just inside shell-app.c.
Rename the app-running-changed signal to be app-state-changed. This
will ultimately be useful so that inside the panel, we can track
the last started app.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=620899
Currently the workspaceSwitcher does not take the screen size into account
which could result into overflowing the screen.
Fix that but using Shell.GenericContainer instead of St.BoxLayout which takes
the monitor size into account when allocating.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=620404
Before adding a new entry to the history, we check that it does not
match the previous entry to cut down the number of duplicate entries.
Part of that condition is a check for a history length greater zero
to avoid an illegal negative index, with the side effect that nothing
is ever added while the history is empty.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621123
As the design calls for smooth transitions whenever possible, use
a similar fade effect for the all-apps and more-docs menus as for
the panel menus.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=620775
When the app well doesn't contain any applications, it displays a placeholder text
to indicate that it's a drop target. When porting WellGrid from St.Bin to St.BoxLayout,
the call to set_child() to set the text was overlooked.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617281
Currently, only the base style class is set in the constructor, the
style update according to the state of the represented app is deferred
until the actor is shown.
As existing icons are destroyed and recreated when the number of icons
changes, this behavior causes the icons of running apps to flicker if
CSS transitions are used.
Set the style directly in the constructor and update the code to not
delay style updates until the actor is shown - StWidget does defer
expensive calculations until the actor is mapped anyway.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=620782
As the search entry captures the pointer when activated, the hover
state is not updated properly when the activation is cancelled
(either by clicking outside the entry or by hitting Escape).
Update the state manually in these cases.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=611095
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.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=614131
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.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=620378
This patch adds ISO week dates to the calendar. Week dates are an
often used feature in business and government offices. Can be turned

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

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).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=613194
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

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().

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.

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

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.

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.

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

So cancel the drag action when the user stops.

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

Some of the workspace view controls are hidden when the number of
workspaces is one (view toggle button, scroll bar in single view).

Add keys for customizing the panel clock to the gconf schema and make

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.

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.

While the extension system already uses an XDG location (XDG_CONFIG_HOME),

Previously we used a ClutterGroup containing a second ClutterGroup for
the non-visibleInOverview actors. Redo it using a single

If a notification is about to hide, but the user has moved the mouse

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.

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,

While most of the code already is CSS stylable, the two-colum setup

Clicking the eject button in the places display always triggers an

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.

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

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.

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

Currently we use two buttons to toggle between the different views,
one of them always being redundant.

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
clone. This is easier than trying to ensure we maintain
the state of the original window clone.

The way we were loading data into a CoglTexture, then pulling it out
and manipulating it on the CPU, then loading it back into a texture
was a bit lame.
Clean things up a bit here by loading directly into the CPU, doing
the fading, then creating a texture.
Also cache the faded data in StTextureCache.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=612759
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.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=611750
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.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=611167
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.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=607500
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
work. this version instead checks whether the localized versions of 05:00 and

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

Also adjust the vertical spacing in the grid view so that the grid height
matches the workspace height in the linear view.

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

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

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

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).

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

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

need more intelligent caching here; if e.g. just the associated

Previously we had various things watching for notify::mapped so
we could be more lazy about updating non-visible actors, but it

We had previously been leaving the scaled workspace at a non-integral
position which didn't look obviously ugly, but now that we're
constraining the popup pane to the workspace size, we really need
to ensure that we're using integral positions here.

We need to check if the display actor is an instance of Shell.OverflowList
or St.BoxLayout to use the appropriate function for getting its child

Rather than the popup panes taking up the whole non-panel height,
constrain them to the height of the workspaces, which is also the
"dash content area".

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".
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=600890
Places is one of the dash sections and it should be included in search results.
Factor out the code for getting and updating the information about places from
Places to PlacesManager.
Introduce PlaceInfo class that contains information about the place and can be
used by classes that display it in different ways. Rename classes so that their
names are consistent with corresponding classes in appDisplay.js and
docDisplay.js
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=599125
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.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=597944
If we're not mapped, only queue up a redisplay. This avoids
e.g. changes in recent documents such as saving a file in GEdit
causing a lot of blocking I/O in the shell (we need to make
recent loading async as well).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=599560
First, fix a problem where though we intended to request a minimum

For the purposes of determining which application is focused, don't
skip "uninteresting" windows. The old get_focused_window code
was used for usage tracking, but here we want reliable application
association.
Also convert a .text= to .set_text that was missed with the last
patch.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=599206
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
won't handle dynamic changes instead is changed to maintain a
cached version.
ShellAppMonitor gains some more methods related to ShellApp now.
In the future, we might consider changing ShellApp to be a GInterface,
which could be implemented by ShellDesktopFileApp, ShellWindowApp.
Then we could axe ShellAppInfo from the "public" API and it would
return to being an internal loss mitigation layer for GMenu.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=598227
If we had a pending search processing, finish it when the user
activates the entry.
This is a small conceptual change; the large diff is simply
moving the search implementation (unedited otherwise) from
an anonymous inline to a named function so it can be called
sanely in _activate.

POTFILES.in was missing some files.
"Activities" is not easily translatable into some languages, e.g. Russian,
so suggest using the word for "Overview" instead.
The down arrow is shown when an application with more than one

This patch fixes the fact that the arrow was not hidden when one

When we get a ClutterModifierType from Clutter, it might contain

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

gdk_display_get_pointer() sometimes returns values for the mask that

(bug 597292). Work around that by adding a C wrapper that strips out
the extra flags.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=597559
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
app-removed on ShellAppMonitor in the AppDisplay class, which
never made any use of the data. Simply don't connect to those
signals for now. In the future we should have AppDisplay
be using the AppIcon class which will more correctly handle
dynamic changes.

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).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=590563
Currently we use 0xefefefff as a background color for non ARGB tray icons,

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
by starting in the middle of the day so that forward/back always
move a day.
- Use a variable instead of an inline '8' to know where to start
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
it is apparently a handy way to flip through months.)

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
consequences.

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
container we are using where we need to set options as properties.

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

Instead, just hide the results sections until we've actually performed
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

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
current one is that the gtype debug infrastructure is implemented

When we had a filtered set of windows, and want to exit the overview

get overlap anyways in the normal case zooming the windows back.

We will be adding more search results sections, so we should store the intended

all sections and a single section.
