Some labels in the system status menu - namely network names - are out
of our control, and may thus grow the width "infinitively" unless we
restrict the menu width. So far we have been doing this by setting a
fixed width or max-width, but any value we put there might end up
being too restrictive in some locales. Instead, request a width that
fits all the labels we want to show unellipsized and use that instead
of an arbitrary limit.

While the GtkSettings::gtk-shell-shows-app-menu property is meant to
reflect a desktop capability (i.e. in the GNOME case: the app menu is
shown in the top bar), it is possible for users to overwrite it.
Respect the setting and actually hide the menu in that case.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745919
Refer to the system menu in the top bar as "System" rather than "Settings" as
it contains more than just settings and "Settings" is already used for the
settings panel. "System" is also used elsewhere, so include context for
translators.

accordingly

Commit 08690d658f generalized the banner-blocking behavior of the
dateMenu to all menus that would obscure the banner. However setting
up the 'open-state-changed' handler only when an indicator is added
does not work for indicators that change their entire menu (like the
app menu) - we currently end up with menus with no connected signal
handler, and throw an error when trying to disconnect an invalid
signal ID.
To address this, add a new PanelButton::menu-set signal and use that
to set up the 'open-state-changed' handler.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745910
We currently block banners while the time+date menu is open, as it
would obscure the notification. However it is not necessarily the
only menu for which this is the case, so generalize the behavior
to all menus that would overlap banners when open.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745910
As notifications appear in the time+date dropdown's message list, there's
a strong relationship between notification banners and the menu. However
while the time+date menu is centered by default, which matches the banner
position, its actual position depends on the session mode - in particular
it is moved to the right in classic mode.
Reinforce the relationship in these cases by moving notification banners
underneath the time+date menu.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745910
When it comes to keybindings or gestures, there's not really a good
reason why popups associated with the top bar should behave differently
from any other shell menus. Just set the action mode generically for
all menus, so actions like screenshots or media-keys start working
with menus like the background- or app launcher context menus.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745039
We will soon replace regular menu items in the calendar drop-down
with more complex elements.
However there will still be items that should close the drop down
when activated - rather than making the menu available throughout
the hierarchy (and eventually from outside as well when we add the
notifications list), have a public method on a global object just
like the ubiquitous Main.overview.hide().
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=744817
Using a separate property to show when the application is busy rather
than cramming it into the state property makes the code clearer. In most
places we only care if an app is running or not, not whether it is
actually busy.

Both Panel.ActivitiesButton and its parent class Panel.MenuButton would
attempt to connect their own _onEvent() function to Clutter::event,
which counterintuitively was connecting the child class' _onEvent()
function twice.
So, actually chain up on the signal handler, and don't connect twice
to the signal. Both methods were calling this.menu.close(), so only
do that on the parent class handler, since we're chaining up and doing
the right thing now.

Until now the arrows were the associated arrow
character of the font. This cause some problems like

When we show(), we need to make sure that the hiding animation
doesn't reach the end, otherwise we would hide the actor but
still have _visible = true.
We were relying on tweener overwriting to do this, but it

This will replace the indicator painted on the stage right now.
This unfortunately does not work for the recorder triggered by the
keybinding -- we'll simply replace the in-shell code with a keybinding
powered by gnome-settings-daemon.
The existing app menu was a kludge of legacy code that tried to manage
a bunch of state, and had a number of issues:
* It didn't properly manage visibility when combined with multiple
apps and the overview.
* It didn't properly manage reactivity when tabbing away from a busy
app to another app.
* It didn't properly disconnect signals when going from one app
to nothing.
and countless others. Rewrite it to use the new "sync" code pattern,
where we centralize all state management and do transitions from that,
rather than strange and quirky control flow.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705898
To align the arrows, we need to allocate panel buttons the full

Swap out the implementation of SystemIndicator with a dummy,
and build the aggregate menu. At the same time, remove the
poweroff and login screen menus, as those were fake aggregate
menus beforehand.
We lose some flexibility as we lose session-mode-based menu
layout, but as each component of the aggregate menu is supposed
to be "smart" in response to updating itself when session
state changes, I believe it's better than a declarative model.

The point of fading the icon is to make the text displayed over the

The duality of the Clutter's key focus and mutter's window focus has long been
a problem for us in lots of case, and caused us to create large and complicated
hacks to get around the issue, including GrabHelper's focus grab model.
Instead of doing this, tie basic focus management into the core of gnome-shell,
instead of requiring complex "application-level" management to get it done
right.
Do this by making sure that only one of an actor or window can be focused at
the same time, and apply the appropriate logic to drop one or the other,
reactively.
Modals are considered a special case, as we grab all keyboard events, but at
the X level, the client window still has focus. Make sure to not do any input
synchronization when we have a modal.
At the same time, remove the FOCUSED input mode, as it's no longer necessary.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=700735
The class is generally useful, so it only makes sense in panel.js
for historical reasons. Because other parts of the code are
using it, though, problems are cropping up that require a
workaround like:
placeSpinner: function(...) {
/* This is here because of recursive imports */
const Panel = imports.ui.panel;
Panel.AnimatedIcon(spinnerIcon, WORK_SPINNER_ICON_SIZE);
...
}
This commit moves AnimatedIcon to its own file so we can drop that
workaround.

In order to use a different spinner image in classic mode (or any
other mode specific style), get it from CSS rather than hardcoding
a particular image.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=693688
For classic mode, we want to use a different styling for the spinner,
so we will pick up the image filename from CSS to make use of mode
specific styling. As the CSS will give us a full pathname, adapt the
API to take a full pathname instead of building it inside AnimatedIcon
from the passed basename.

Rather than expose a dizzying array of methods related to managing
state that require infecting every user of the overview methods, try
to do the sensible and smart thing internally. Now, the overview
itself tracks when XDND drags start, and simply calling show, hide or

will only take the grab until after the XDND drag ends.

This cleans up the code considerably, and makes it so that
one path creates all hot corners for all monitors. Why this
wasn't done originally, I have no clue...
The one complication is debouncing if the button and hot corner

to the overview.

The panel used to provide an .in-overview class which was removed after

With panel buttons changing dynamically on session mode changes we can
no longer rely on a corner's respective box style-changed signal to

The panel corners overlap the panel in order to hide the underline
used for active buttons where it is supposed to arc downwards
following the roundness of the corner.
Unfortunately this prevents us from using a transparent panel background,

this limitation by only overlapping the panel if there is a visible
border.

The AnimatedIcon does not have an API for controlling the animation but
relies on the :visible property changes to start and stop a timeout used
to update the frame.
This has the inconvenient of having a side effect when visible is set to
true multiple times, and is not really the API expected from such
component. Also, there is a race if it is displayed before the images
are loaded: there is no child yet and thus we get this._frame = NaN
which leads to a crash.
Switch to a play/stop API instead, and add a load event callback to the
TextureCache.load_slice_image to exactly know when we can start using
the images.

Since panel corners are currently square, this doesn't really affect much,
but it's very clear what the code was supposed to be. At the same time,
also fix up a redeclaration with 'let', which technically isnt' kosher.
Panel already forces each item to be a PanelMenu.Button, so it's better
to have the latter handle the bin container too, instead of attaching
a private property that might collide with internal usage by the indicator.

If we don't freeze the presence icon, we can end up in a place where
we'll be updating the icon before we fade out the panel indicators when

Since we eventually want to add a system for changing the top panel
contents depending on the current state of the shell, let's use the
"session mode" feature for this, and add a mechanism for updating the
session mode at runtime. Add support for every key besides the two
functional keys, and make all the components update automatically when the
session mode is changed. Add a new lock-screen mode, and make the lock
screen change to this when locked.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=683156
We already could build the right part of the panel declaratively according
to the session mode. Extend that to handle the left and center parts.
Also, move the mapping from the roles to the classes in panel.js, as it shared
by all modes.

The design has a combined volume-network-power indicator in the lock
screen, which when opened shows a volume slider. Implement it by abstracting
the volume menu into a PopupMenuSection, and by creating three StIcons
bound to the real ones.

The app menu is hidden when entering the lock screen, however it
might be shown again while the lock is still in place - we don't

Track locked status and use it to provide a reduced version of
the panel in the locked screen. Accessibility, input sources and
volume menus are preserved, without the link to the control center.
Network, battery and user menu are reduced to pure indicators,
with no menu.
This is similar to the design but not exactly, because designers
in IRC said that network needs more analysis before exposing, and
because the design didn't account for a11y and IM (so the one menu
metaphor is not really appropriate).

Previous code would access the array element before checking that

When activating the app menu while displaying a startup notification

Rather than accessing global.session_type / global.session_mode
all over the place, delegate mode information to a dedicated
sessionMode object. While not very useful for now, we will replace
checks for a particular mode with checks for particular properties

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=676156
When the appMenu is not available, for instance when no windows are
open (on the current workspace), we make its actor unreactive to
"hide" it from keynav. However the menu can still be triggered
erroneously when using the corresponding keyboard shortcut, so
add a check for the actor's reactivity there as well.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=676316
With the application menu now being more than a stub, it has
become a much more interesting target, so add a keyboard shortcut
to open it directly.
This should also ease some of the pain for focus-follows-mouse users.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=672909
Bailing out of _sync() early if the application lost keyboard focus to
the shell can only be done on actual application focus changes. In
particular, doing this check on a switch to an empty workspace while
the keyboard focus is already on the shell prevents the AppMenuButton
from being hidden as it should.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=672011
Reactive means that the actor is reachable from keyboard
navigation. If the target isn't current that means we are not tweening
the actor to be visible so we shouldn't set it reactive either.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=671998
The preferred way to unmaximize/untile a window is by using a drag
gesture. Extend the available area to start this gesture into
non-reactive parts of the top bar above the window - with that we
take advantage of the "infinite height" of the screen edge, and the
extra space is particularly useful when the window has its titlebar
hidden.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=666359
Currently they return 'undefined' instead of something meaningful,
e.g. DND.DragMotionResult.CONTINUE. This was unnoticed because none
of the ancestors of the Activities button actors do any drag handling.
The only visible issue are JS errors generated when dragging, for example,
a window thumbnail over the button, because the cursor cannot be set.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=669921
When the last window on a workspace is closed the focus goes to some other
window in another workspace which would cause us to show the AppMenuButton for
an application that isn't visible on the current empty workspace.

Since the application proxy is created asynchronously, at the time
the GActionGroup (GActionMuxer) is created, there is no GDBusMenu yet.
Defer creating the menu in that case.
Also, clear out signal handlers if have no target application.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=633028
GTK+ also exports window-specific actions, by putting the object path
for the exported action group in the _DBUS_OBJECT_PATH X property.
We add this action group to the app's muxer with a 'win' prefix,
since that is what the exported menu expects. Whenever the focus
window changes, we update the window-specific actions of its
application, and emit notify::action-group to cause the app
menu to be updated.
By the time the window is first mapped and the app menu button is
synced, we may not have finished reading the menu. In that case,
connect to notify::menu and update accordingly.
Use the new GApplication support in ShellApp to create the application
menu. Supports plain (no state), boolean and double actions.
Includes a test application (as no other application uses GApplication
for actions)

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

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

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

The style of the top bar's corners is bound to the style of the
corresponding button; we used to hardcode this association, but
as the login mode does have a different layout, the button is now
determined programmatically.
Unfortunately, some containers take the text direction into account
when ordering their children, while some don't, so the current
code returned the wrong button in RTL locales.

This patch fixes the "apps vanish from alt-TAB bug".
If a "package system" rips away and possibly replaces .desktop files
at some random time, we have historically used inotify to detect this
and reread state (in a racy way, but...). In GNOME 2, this was
generally not too problematic because the menu widget was totally
separate from the list of windows - and the data they operate on was
disjoint as well.
In GNOME 3 we unify these, and this creates architectural problems
because the windows are tied to the app.
What this patch tries to do is, when rereading the application state,
if we have a running application, we keep that app around instead of
making a new instance. This ensures we preserve any state such as the
set of open windows.
This requires moving the running state into ShellAppSystem. Adjust
callers as necessary, and while we're at it drop the unused "contexts"
stuff.
This is just a somewhat quick band-aid; a REAL fix would require us
having low-level control over application installation. As long as
we're on top of random broken tar+wget wrappers, it will be gross.
A slight future improvement to this patch would add an explicit
"merge" between the old and new data. I think probably we always keep
around the ShellApp corresponding to a given ID, but replace its
GMenuTreeEntry.
