We will allow applications to hook into shell's search by registering
a service which implements a well-known DBus interface.
"search-providers" is a reasonable directory name for applications to
drop their registration files, but it conflicts with "search_providers"
used by open search providers - rename the latter to avoid confusion.

IconGrid items used to be square, so a single size value made
perfect sense. However, as contact search uses rectangular items,
using a single size is wrong - the allocated height ends up twice
the size of the visible height, which is particularly visible if
another provider displays results below contact results.

A new tool, 'gnome-shell-extension-prefs' can load a new entry point from
extensions, 'prefs.js', which has an entry point to return a GTK+ widget.
This allows extensions to have their own preferences dialog, without each
extension needing to ship its own Python script and .desktop file.

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

Mutter/Metacity settings overridden by the shell have not been
migrated when moving to GSettings, but there's no good reason not

Implement the background-size CSS property, specified by the CSS
Backgrounds and Borders Module Level 3, including the keywords
"contain", "cover", and fixed-size backgrounds.

Instead of using an St.Tooltip to show the app's name under the icon,
manually position a new St.Label ourselves. Make sure to keep the label
hidden when right-clicking so it doesn't get in the way of the popup menu.
Only one tooltip/label will be displayed at a time.

The description for enabled-extensions referenced an old and removed key,
"disabled-extensions". Update the description to talk about the DBus methods
that GNOME Shell provides and talk about how the list is now an explicit
whitelist that needs to be there.

Users don't expect the bullets they just typed into an entry
field to disappear as soon as they hit enter.
Instead, they want the dialog to become insensitive during the
authentication process, so that it's clear that what they typed
in is being processed.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=657894
While the ability to show the password can be useful at times,
the existing implementation is problematic:
1) The use of a switch is wrong (as even noted in a code
comment).
2) It is inconsistent with any other password dialog (login screen,
polkit).
In lack of a properly designed solution (for all password dialogs),
the designers agreed to remove the switch for now.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=658948
Applying the "dim window" effect to the MetaWindowActor has two avantages:
first it avoids triggering bugs where ClutterOffscreenEffect doesn't handle
clone paint correctly. Second, it avoids showing the window as dimmed in
alt-Tab and the overview, which is weird.
The small downside of this is that the shadow becomes slightly gray when
the window dimmed, which is wrong - if we switched from blending with gray
to a combination of desaturation and darkening, this problem wouldn't
happen.
Revert out the addition of startY to the shader, since we don't need it
and fix the application of alpha, since we need to handle alpha correctly
for the shadow.

The previous wrapping code hardcoded a width in pixels, making it
non-text-zoom-friendly. Specify a CSS width in pts, and fix the
userMenu code to completely opt out of the popupMenu column behavior.
Hack PopupComboBoxMenuItem slightly to deal with the fact that the
pop-up no longer gets setColumnWidth'ed.

A menu action may not make sense at any time, so add API to mark
an item insensitive to indicate that its action is currently
unavailable, but may become activatable at a later point.

Without this, the dim "fade" will start at the top of the untrimmed actor. With
a large enough draggable_border_width setting, this will show no fade at all.

The way the window dimmer shader is applied will cause rendering errors with
the rounded corners, invisible borders or shaped textures since it doesn't deal
well with the multitexturing used by the MetaShapedTexture. Use an off-screen
buffer to flatten the texture before being applied.

This commit adds the ability to log in with a fingerprint instead
of a password (assuming the user is enrolled and fingerprint
isn't disabled via gsettings)

commit 8424236daa
set the entry to a specific size to prevent it from
growing for long passwords.
The size is a little too long though, since it makes
the dialog pop out horizontally when showing the entry.
This commit drops it down a few em.

Simplify the layout in rightBox by getting rid of statusBox, and just
putting everything into rightBox directly.
Simplify the handling of the user menu by adding it like it was a
status icon rather than special-casing it. Rename the "tray_icon"
variables to "status_area" to reflect this better.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=651299
Legacy trayicons are mostly gone, so remove some of the special-casing
for them to simplify things.
Also, fix panel.addToStatusArea() to interpret its "position" relative
to tray_icon_order, not relative to the existing contents of
statusBox, so that the order that extension icons appear in does not
depend on the order they are loaded in.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=651299
The underline highlights on the panel menu items normally have a 100ms
transition between highlighted and unhighlighted, but the panel corner
graphics can't do that, so we hacked the Activities button and user
menu to have no transition. But in gdm mode, the user menu isn't the
rightmost item any more. Fix this by modifying the CSS from the code
instead.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=651299
1) This is the official GNOME browser. The default favorite apps
are just some random picks, and anyone who wants to
switch can obviously use patches.
2) mozilla.desktop isn't actually even upstream in Firefox, so this
devolves to patches Fedora/Ubuntu carry to make one, meaning
that others have to patch the app list anyways.

The current user status menu allow to set the session status,
which also influences the IM status when signed in with
mission-control. However, the way it is presented to the user
makes it hard to figure out how the statuses interact or that
there are two distinct status in the first place.
Therefore, use a separate control for each status, and update the
overall look to match gnome-contacts.

Doing this rather than overdrawing a black rectangle saves us
(pixels in screen) * 8 bytes of memory bandwidth for every frame we draw going
into the overview.
It also allows us to dim the background on non-primary monitors making the
overall overview appearance consistent across all monitors.

This commit adds GDM session support.
It provides a user list that talks to GDM,

Images are part of the notification spec, so we should support them.

The theme currently hard codes the minimum size of the calendar
menu to make sure there's a designated area for events
(even if there isn't anything currently scheduled).
A side-effect of the hard coded minimum width is that
if the events area is hidden, the menu ends up much
bigger than the calendar. We don't currently ever hide
the events area, but we will in the future.
This commit moves the min-width restriction from the menu
specifically to the events area.

Direction containers group all contiguous messages in the same direction into

The two similar keys were hard to manipulate to have specific effects, so just

Update modal dialog, notification and search result buttons to use
the same style. This improves the look of notification buttons
and also ensures that all buttons change appearance when they are

Some small changes to make notifications fit with the shell aesthetic
and make them match the mockups. Gives them a bigger corner radius,
smaller font and more transparency.

Match the mockup for chat input style and meta messages - gives
the input box more depth and definition, makes the meta messages

With the old pre-boxpointer summary notifications, it sort of made
sense that the summary notification actor was a child of the message
tray. But there's no reason for that now, and in fact, it ends up
requiring special cases in some places since hovering over the summary
notification counts as hovering over the tray. So, fix this.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=655813
The buttons should have a glassy transparent look. Also, they should not
be as tall, should light up on hover, and their labels should be white
in order to stand out. Making the labels solid white requires removing the
transparency set in modalDialog.js. Also, add a separate color setting
for the dialog as a whole - this avoids having a white icon.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=655428
Panel box pointers were recently updated to match the mockups. Message
tray box pointers should look the same. Update the corner radius, stroke
colour and pointer dimensions to match.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=655627
The specs call for a 2 pixel gap between the panel and its menus,
though we need to specify this as 4 pixels, since it's relative to the
bottom of the icon/title, not the bottom of the panel (up until now,
the point of the menu arrow was actually overlapping the menu's
highlight underline).
Also, move the gap specification into the CSS, since it makes more
sense there.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=655627
Make menu popups fully match the mockups by changing the stroke
colour, pointer and corner radius size. This has the benefit of
distinguishing the menu from the background and gives it a subtler
appearance that fits the shell's aesthetic.

The fact that everything in the top bar except the activities button
was a menu made various things difficult. Simplify this by making the
activities button be a menu too, but just hack it up a bit so that the
menu associated with the button never actually appears.
Fixes https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=645759 (Clicking on
Activities with menu up leaves a funny state) and its semi-dup 641253
(panel keynav between Activities and menus is quirky).
Ideally, this would be an entirely-JS implementation, but we have a
couple of issues with gjs and gobject-introspection to work around, so
we need a ShellMountOperation class for the time being.

modal style very similar to the EndSession dialog.
Implementations of ask-question and ask-password will follow shortly.

AutorunManager is a class that takes care of displaying and managing
notifications and UI for storage devices.
When a mount appears and a number of conditions are satisified, a
transient notification will be displayed to immediately interact with
the device. AutorunTransientDispatcher is the object that takes care of
showing/hiding the notification sources as devices appear/disappear.
Likewise, current mounts are kept in a list and presented within a
list in a resident notification, handled by AutorunResidentSource.

Theme authors now have the power (and responsibility) of creating fade
effects with the new CSS length property '-st-fade-offset'. A value of
