This is a start at the "Active Appliction Item" component of the
shell design. Currently we just show the currently focused
application. When launching a new application, we show that as well.
The implementation here is not complete; basically when launching
we de-focus the active one, and the application well shows the
most recent startup sequence.
This kind of fails in the case of multiple sequences, and we
also don't correctly de-focus the current window in other
launch paths.
There was lots of fixed positioning in the Panel; now it is completely
dynamic, and width/height is driven from main.js. We still have a
global constant Panel.PANEL_HEIGHT, but this is a big step towards
eliminating it.
Also, this avoids overdraw in the "way too many tray icons" case. The
clock will shift left.
Replace 'overlay' with the more descriptive name 'overview'
where the Activities Overview is meant. Call it Overview
(capitalized) in code comments.
The overlay-group and overlay-key provided by Mutter are not
affected, since they may be used for other components than
the Activities Overview.
It's both intuitive to go to the corner of the screen
and click the activities button at the same time.
Both actions bring up the overlay, but combined
they cancel each other out. This commit makes
clicking the hot corner not cancel the act of
going to the hot corner.
Based on a patch from Ray Strode.
Use the 1x1 actor in the top left corner of the screen to enter and leave
the overview mode by just moving the mouse over to it.
No delay is used for triggering the hot corner because a delay significant
enough to allow moving away the mouse to avoid triggering it ruins the desired
flow when triggering the hot corner is actually intended.
The hot corner is not enabled in the full screen mode because the application
or the virtual system might have a hot corner of its own in that place.
This patch attempts to adjust if we have many tray icons; currently
the simple algorithm is to drop down to a spacing of 8 if we have
more than 6. In the future we should fix the panel layout so that
the clock moves to the side.
The semi-transparent gradient on the panel is replaced by a
solid black background. The shadow below the panel is removed.
The clock is put at the center instead of the right side of
the panel and has the date removed. The user icon is hidden.
Instead of boldface, a regular font is used. Padding is added
on each side and between panel elements.
button.js: Allow for custom text colors and fonts.
panel.js: Change the panel colors and layout, remove the shadow.
Make the ClutterText and ClutterTexture from the status menu
button available to JavaScript, and from there improve the
font definition of the user name.
shell-status-menu.[ch]: Add public get_name() and get_icon()
functions that return the user name label and icon
texture, remove the markup from update_name_text().
panel.js: Set the font for the button consistently with that
of the other panel labels.
This removes the border and padding and aligns the box to the top. Perhaps we
could push the padding down into the active area of the icon since it does look
a bit nicer with it.

Adds an explicit "chrome" layer for the panel (and later the sidebar),
managing the input region and struts for them, and hiding them when
fullscreen windows are present or the user enters the overlay.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=581771
In addition to pressing the Activities button, the overlay can be entered
by pressing the System key or Alt+F1. We want the button to look pressed in
in these cases too.
Rather than having main.js manage this, put it into overlay.js, and
have the overlay object emit signals that other code can watch to do
things when the overlay is showing/shown/hiding/hidden.
Try to fix all places where we accidentally used foo_bar instead
of fooBar for function names, function parameters, and variables.
(Lucas Rocha pointed out one example.)
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=581141
Now code can call Main.addShellActor(actor) to declare that that actor
is part of the shell, and so it should (a) be protected by wm struts, and
(b) be part of the stage input area, and then that code automatically
deals with updating if the actor changes size or visibility.
The panel show/hide changes broke things if window restacking occurred
while the overlay was active. Now instead of having the panel set the
input area itself, main.js just watches whether or not the panel is
visible, and updates things itself (taking the modal state into
account as well).
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=576903
The panel looks nicer when it is drawn as a semi-transparent gradient
above the background color.
shell-global.[ch]: Add a function that creates vertical gradient actors.
panel.js: Change the look of the panel and put the tray in a framed box.
overlay.js: Extend the overlay background to behind the panel.
Because we can't set the stage input area to a non-rectangular shape,
we don't allow the panel to be partially overlapped; it is always either
on top, or else completely hidden.
tools/build/gnome-shell.modules: Point at master branch of Clutter (0.9)
and make gobject-introspection a dep of Clutter.
configure.ac src/Makefile.am: Use Clutter-0.9
js/ui/button.js js/ui/genericDisplay.js js/ui/overlay.js js/ui/panel.js
js/ui/runDialog.js js/ui/workspaces.js src/shell-status-menu.c:
Use ClutterText instead of ClutterLabel and ClutterEntry
js/ui/workspaces.js js/ui/genericDisplay.js: Use ClutterClone instead
of ClutterCloneTexture
src/shell-global.[ch]: Add Shell.get_event_key_symbol() to workaround
unaccessibility of clutter_key_event_symbol() to use.
js/runDialog.js js/overlay.js: Use Shell.get_event_key_symbol() as
appropriate.
Fix the clock to update exactly on the minute, rather than at a random
time within the minute.

Convert all JS style to be uniform, add Eclipse settings bits
Instead, just add 'indent-tabs-mode: nil' to the mode lines and convert
tabs to spaces. The indentation no longer exactly matches the Eclipse
settings, since they differ in some ways from the style we are trying
to achieve.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=97
Previous style was all over the place; this commit attempts to bring
uniformity. Overall, the style is:
* 4 spaces only, no tabs
* Prototypes do not create a new block
* Constructor property continuations only indent one block

shell_tray_manager.c: Add a bg-color property and implement it
by setting a 1x1 pixmap of the right color as the background.
Also, make the colormap of the tray manager window match that
of the socket. That should (untested) make transparency work
properly if the tray icon supports it.
panel.js: Set the bg-color property of the tray manager to
match the panel.

Set a strut (a reserved region) at the top of the screen so that
windows don't get positioned under the panel. Do this on all
workspaces and redo it when the number of workspaces changes.

To match our style other places, use 'me' rather than 'panel' when

notification are to the panel. A bit warty, but we don't know how we want
the final UI to look anyway. (The fact that transparency doesn't work is
a known bug.)

Now that gjs Bug #558741 is fixed, we can import Main directly from
the toplevel of overlay.js/panel.js without causing problems.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=41
When the user clicks on "Activities", adjust the input shape
to the whole screen and show a black overlay group. Actually, the
black should be *beneath* the window actors and the overlay group
transparent so we can fade in the black while leaving the windows
unfaded, visible, but shrunk and rearranged.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=14
Add a top panel with a label "Activities" you can click on and
a HH:MM:SS clock. (A little more and we'll be caught up to gnome-0.9.)
