Since [1], GIO supports generic serialization and deserialization of a
GIcon into a GVariant. This is also implemented by GdkPixbuf and could be
used instead of our homegrown code for it.
This commit adds support to another 'icon' key in the metas dictionary
returned by applications for it. The previous 'gicon' and 'icon-data'
keys are still parsed and supported as before, but are now deprecated.

This makes it easy to replace the dot with another label in the future.
Change the allocation logic, as text layout is more complicated than
simple icon logic.

This is a new, regular keybinding for going to the overview.
The default binding is Super-S, which goes well with Super-A
for going to the application grid.
This is separate from the existing panel-main-menu keybinding,
so that we can keep Alt-F1 opening the main menu in classic mode.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=698251
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.

This causes very low performance in some situations (like multiscreen). Proper
fixes are too invasive at this point (3.8.1) so lets just remove the shadow
for now and add it back later once he have fixed it.

The login dialog has a maximum height set to prevent the user list
from growing indefinitively. However this approach fails if the
monitor height is smaller as said maximum, so add some additional
top/bottom padding to make sure there's some whitespace above/below
the user list in that case as well.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685851
Commit 7b3a689aad changed the border-radius of the hover effect
to match the prelight effect, but not the focus indication, so
the focused item now changes corners on hover. Fix this by using
a consistent border-radius.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=691578
In order to center the view selector, the dash has been moved to a
separate layer, which means that it will overlap the app picker and
search results if the available width is smaller than the maximum
width that the content will request. Fix this by adding enough
horizontal padding to account for the width the dash will have at
its largest icon size.

gnome-panel is going away in 3.8, so we can't rely on it to provide our
friendly and reliable companion. But no regret, because we can ship it
ourselves, and at the same time remove some unnecessary configuration.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=695526
Application view: the radius of the corners on the hover effect
should match the radius of the prelight effect that is used for
running apps. Original fix from Bharath Thiruveedula.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=691578
Implement a basic OSD popup that shows an icon and optionally a label
and a fill level. It is based on the existing OSD implementation in
gnome-settings-daemon, which it will replace.

Particularly when using asian languages the symbol could become large
enough to not fit in the space we have and we'd end up with a totally
ellipsized item.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=695001
We add some horizontal padding to the AllView's content to make
sure content does not end up underneath the scrollbar; while this
is not required in case of the FrequentView which does not have
a scrollbar, applying the same padding ensures that both views
end up with the same spacing, which makes switching between them
less disruptive.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=694261
If the AllView is scrolled, the vertical scrollbar will take away
some horizontal space on one side, resulting in the content ending
up slightly off-center.
Account for this by using overlay-scrollbars instead.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=694261
The frequent view should not be scrolled, but to work around the
icon grid overflowing, we used a (non-scrolling) scroll view anyway.
Now that IconGrid:fillParent allows us to avoid overflow, we can
remove this hack.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=694256
The user widget is the username and avatar shown on
the unlock dialog.
The login dialog has something very similar.
This commit separates the user widget out to its own
file, so we can use it from the login dialog in a
later commit.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=694062
According to the design mockups, the app picker should follow the
recent view pattern as used by applications, where the user is first
offered a subset of applications he/she is likely to start, and only
then allow switching to the full set of installed applications.
So implement the ability to manage several views in AppDisplay and add
FrequentView as additional view, which uses the existing ShellAppUsage
to display a list of frequently used applications.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=694192
App folders are intended for grouping some applications, not to
assign a category to every single application, so we will only
create folders for a selected subset of the existing categories.
Software/Alacarte will eventually allow to create/modify those
folders, so store the setting in GSettings so that it can be
shared with those applications.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=694192
With categories removed, the separation between AllAppDisplay and
ViewByCategories no longer makes sense. Also use this opportunity
to rename the outdated AllAppDisplay to AppDisplay; it will
eventually be used to manage different views.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=694192
All the complexity with a custom actor and a generic container was
just to add some padding below the overview controls. Remove that,
and use CSS instead.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=694100
Account for the search entry space at the bottom (the former message
tray clone) individually in each side control, instead of packing
another actor in the overview.
This allows us to extend the central view all the way to the bottom,
while still keeping controls centered vertically.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=693987
Don't show the message tray in the overview by default. From now on the
message tray in overview behaves as regularly, i.e. it will slide up the
overview on Super+M keypress.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=693987
Make it look more like the mockups.
In order to do that we stop using PopupMenu and friends as it doesn't
really buy us anything and just makes it more cumbersome to add the
style classes we need.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=691902
Document and enforce that a meta ID corresponds to the result ID
that we've passed in. This does not break any existing search providers
as far as I'm aware.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=693836
The message tray currently operates in three modes: in the overview,
normal, and while the on-screen keyboard is up. The last case is
particularly odd, and exclusively used for chat-notifications. As
users can still use the Chat application directly on touch-only
devices, the additional mode isn't really justified, so remove it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=662687
Since the panel affects struts, if we change its height on mode
transitions, windows will move around which is particularly noticable
with maximized windows when coming out of the screen shield.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=692966
This, together with the panel's transparent background in the screen
shield, has the unfortunate side-effect of showing the desktop
background in a brief flash while coming out of the screen shield.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=692966
The designs says that only music notifications should be shown in full
in the screenshield, the others should be either shown as a summary or
with very light details.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685926
On large displays, we don't want the search results list to expand
across the whole screen; set a maximum width of 1000px.
Unfortunately, since in St max-width only affects size requisition, we
need a little custom layout manager to have it applied to the allocation
too.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=692453
The way it currently exists is awkward and not how most virtual buttons
work. This patch causes the "clicked" look to occur when the button is held.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=692319
Switching style on Overview::hiding creates a weird effect, as the noise
texture is shown while the overview is still visibile. Instead, wait for
the tray to be fully hidden, then apply the new style.
As now the switch is invisible, there is no need for the transition
(which introduced the same problem on overview showing)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=689091
Add an style class targetting workspaces located outside the overview,
and use it for extra padding around the window clones. Padding is passed
down and applied inside LayoutStrategy, consolidating code that previously
handled the bottom side only.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=690171
According to css3-transition, transition-duration is expressed
as a time, that is, in seconds or milliseconds. Fix that by
recognizing numbers with units and implicitly converting to
milliseconds after parsing.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=681376
Instead of being fuzzy, the menu separators should be a clear
line with a horizontal gradient. This looks better and is
consistent with the mockups.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=641745
The thumbnail controls are not a separate actor in the overview group
yet, so we need to ensure a spacing between them and the workspaces
view.
Instead of exporting the overview spacing, just add a temporary style
class to the workspaces-view actor for it. It will be removed in the
future when we change the layout of overview elements.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=690174
Adjust the layout of the overview and window thumbnails to make them
bigger. Also, make the background shade darker to compensate for the
increased thumbnail density.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=689876
These are for all search results except apps (and Wanda).
We also simplify a bit the packing of search results, which removes some
ugly code in navigateFocus() where we needed to call
st_widget_navigate_focus() twice, since the grid icon was composed by
two nested boxes, both focusable.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=681797
Display a '+' icon on the provider icon if there are more results that are
hidden. If the provider icon is clicked, ask the provider to launch itself and
perform a search with the current terms.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=681797
We are going to change the interface, so add a new version of it.
Providers will need to opt-in to the new API.
A summary of the differences compared to the previous API:
- ActivateResult() now also takes the search terms and a timestamp as
parameters
- a new LaunchSearch() method is added
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=689735
Now that we use the new 'switch-applications' keybinding for the
application-based alt-tab popup, we can use the 'switch-windows'
keybinding for a more traditional switcher.
Based heavily on the alternate-tab extension from Giovanni Campagna.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=688913
Message tray: modify bubble scrollview notification padding to
have the same padding at right, bottom, top and left since
having different padding make scrollbar looks missaligned.
Also adjust border radius of bubble to not clash the scrollbar.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=688393
We need to do a better job of indicating login process. This can
sometimes take a few seconds (particularly if you get your password
wrong): we need to give better feedback of what's going on.
This adds a spinner next to the login button if the authorization takes
some time.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=687113
The login dialog had these issues:
- the entry was not really disabled, you could still edit text
- the sensitivity state was not reset on verification failure
- the session list was not disabled
The unlock dialog had these issues:
- "Login as another user..." was not insensitive
- redundant password char setting, overwriting the one given by the
question
The entry insensitive style was also wrong.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=687113
Windows in the overview should be highlighted when hovered, to indicate
they are an active target.
Based on a patch by Marc Plano-Lesay <marc.planolesay@gmail.com>
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=665310
At the moment, only the mouse can be used to focus and answer a chat
notification.
This adds a new keybinding (defaults to <Super>+n) to focus and expand
the active notification.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=652082
When it isn't focused, the search box can be quite hard to see.
The text/icon/border color is changed to be brighter in order to increase
contrast with the dark background and this works well with various
wallpapers.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=686479
I've heard quite a bit of feedback from people who want to log out,
even if they are the sole user on their system. It doesn't seem worth
alienating them over this; so add a setting to make the 'Log out' item
always show up.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=686057
The transparent background for available/unavailable IM status menu
makes the text difficult to read.
Simplifies that by using the default combo-popup background instead of a
custom one.
