Non-uniform border-radii are already supported when using a gradient
background, this patch adds support for solid colors as well.
The currently applied technique of using corner textures and filling
the remaining area with rectangles is extended, so that each corner is
padded with rectangles to the size of the largest corner.
Add border-radius.js to test cases, to test non-uniform border-radii
with both solid color and gradient backgrounds.

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.
Based on a patch from Matt Novenstern.

Switch to using the layer combine constant rather than the material
primary color for representing the opacity of the material; this

the layer state.

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).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=608869
Previously the code to keep the X window aligned with its actor made
various assumptions that were true in the panel status tray area but
that are not true in the message tray. Fix it up by repositioning the
X window at clutter_actor_paint() time, which will definitely be
called every time the actor moves, whether it's because of its own or
its parent/ancestor's changes.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=608869
As of 1.4, ClutterGLXTexturePixmap is identical to
ClutterX11TexturePixmap (with the differences having been moved into
the cogl layer). So make ShellGtkEmbed use the (introspected) X11
version, which then allows us to make the instance and class structs
public as well.

Move shadow helper functions from st-theme-node-drawing to st-private
to make them available to widgets which want to add shadows to internal
actors.
Also add a new helper function for creating the shadow material from a
ClutterActor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=624384
Reorganize the existing code which parses the -st-shadow property
to allow parsing different shadow properties and add support for
the text-shadow property.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=624384
If a shadow property is inherited from a parent, multiple StThemeNodes
share a common StShadow. It would be possible to use st_shadow_copy()
for this purpose, but proper reference counting is nicer.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=624384
Add basic support for background-position, which only supports absolute
values.
Also don't require an unit to be specified for 0 (because the unit does not
really matter here 0 is 0 regardless of the unit).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=624375
Add st_theme_node_paint_equal() and use that to do two things:
1) Avoid animating transitions where nothing changes.
2) Copy cached painting state from the old theme node to the new
theme node.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=627083
Creating an FBO may be expensive, so we should avoid the operation
if possible. When transitioning between theme nodes, the widget's
opacity is used to paint to the offscreen textures which are blended
together - this means that the textures have to be recreated each time
the widget's opacity changes. It is much more effective to paint the
textures at full opacity and respect the widget's paint opacity when
blending the textures together.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=627085
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
to the search increments the number of results, which is rather
surprising.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=610955
gdk_screen_get_rgb_colormap() has been removed from GTK+; there's
no longer a special visual that is used for drawing true-color
images distinct from the system visual. So, we don't need to
check for it; if the visual isn't the system visual, we just
fall through to the case where we create a new GdkColormap.
The function has been upstreamed as clutter_actor_contains() - with
the switch to clutter-1.4 it is now available to the Shell, so it
is no longer necessary to keep a copy in-tree.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=626512
Add support for the CSS :first-child and :last-child properties to
StContainer, and thus to all containers in St and ShellGenericContainer.
The internal ordering of the container's children is used to determine
the child to which to attach the pseudo class, not the children's
positions. This means that containers where positions can differ from
the ordering (ShellGenericContainer / StGroup) may behave unexpectedly,
so some caution is required.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=625316
When we are manually starting dconf in the case where it can't
be activated via D-Bus, we need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH in its
environment, since dconf is no longer linked with a rpath.
(Unlike the rest of GNOME, it doesn't use libtool.)
There's an assertion in calculate_gaussian_kernel() to avoid a division
by zero - due to an unnecessary cast from float to int this assertion
is triggered incorrectly for small (but non-zero) values, e.g. a blur
radius of 1px.
Recently, g-ir-scanner got a little stricter with regard to
GSList, marking functions not introspectable if the element
type is not annotated. This fixes a visible JS Error by g-ir
and gdmuser/gdm-user-manager.c
Add SHELL_STAGE_INPUT_MODE_FOCUSED, to move the keyboard focus to the
shell without grabbing the keyboard or mouse, and make
stage_input_mode into a GObject property so that (among other things),
callers can tell when MODE_FOCUSED reverts back to MODE_NORMAL.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=623429
g-ir-scanner is currently buggy and confuses the Gdk.Rectangle alias
with MetaRectangle. Since this is moderately hard to fix in
gobject-introspection and the fix would conflict with in-progress

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=623640
The conversion of GdkRectangle to a typedef for cairo_rectangle_int_t
in GTK+-3 makes it no longer a proper boxed type (it's still registered
boxed, but gobject-introspection doesn't know that.) So, switch to using
MetaRectangle, which is now registered as a boxed type by Mutter.

"text-align" allows setting the alignment of text, with respect to

It has probably crossed the line to evil by a mile or so, but here
it is: a Tweener.slowDownFactor replacement used by all animations

While at it, update Tweener to use the new setTimeScale() upstream

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=622249
Windows are only added to an application if they are considered
"interesting". If we keep it that way, we cannot unconditionally
call _shell_app_remove_window() - applications without interesting
windows are not considered running, so the call crashes the shell.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=622236
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
environment variable both when running installed or from source tree,
in src/gnome-shell.in and src/gnome-shell-clock-preferences.in.

This is a small memory usage optimization, and cleans up the code.
In particular, this will help for later patches which perform
more substantial operations on running apps.

Nothing uses ShellOverflowList any more, so remove it. (Even if we

This function reads a single image file which contains multiple

The framebuffer setup code can fail, e.g. when the texture used as
color buffer has a height/width of 0. In that case, the call to
cogl_pop_framebuffer() will crash the shell trigger an assert. Add
error checking to fail gracefully.
Add _st_actor_contains() in st-private for use within St, and

Our behavior of reversing the animation when the widget's style
changes back to the previous one is sound. On the other hand, when
there's a change to a new style while a transition is active, we
simply cancel the ongoing transition. Updating the transition
correctly so that the new one starts from an intermediate state
is hard.
Nevertheless, if the style changes before any time of the transition
has elapsed, we should do better than the current behavior.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621140
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
The current code only sets up / updates transitions when the new
node's transition-duration is non-zero. It should cancel an
existing transition if the duration is 0.
It is sometimes desirable to fade smoothly between two styles
instead of changing it abruptly.
Add transitions controlled by the transition-duration CSS property.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619025
StThemeNodes may have properties - namely shadows - which paint
outside an actor's allocation. This is not a problem unless drawing
is redirected to an offscreen buffer, in which case the actually
painted size is needed in advance when setting up the buffer.
Add a convenience method to calculate an allocation large enough to
paint the node.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619025
Add st_theme_node_equal() - two nodes are considered equal iff they
refer to identical elements, so e.g. .example and .example:hover are
not equal, even if no .example:hover rule exists in the CSS.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619025
Previously we were trying to match up remote windows with local
.desktop files, which is definitely wrong. This patch simply
falls back to the app-from-window case for this; better handling
would need design.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=620855
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.

When hovering over the entry's ClutterText, the entry itself
currently receives a leave event and updates the hover state.
Apply the same logic as StWidget itself to treat children as
part of the entry.

Add an event when we receive an event on buffer swap completion; we'll
only get this if Clutter is using the INTEL_swap_event GLX extension,
but it's useful to see the actual timing of video frames.
The recorded event includes the actual timestamp of the swap, since
we are given that in the GLX event - on my system it tends to be
consistently 80-100us before we log the event, but if something was
going wrong in event handling (too much synchronous work), then that
could could show up as a longer delay.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619516
Currently shadows disregard the overall opacity, so e.g. setting
an ancestor's opacity does not effect the shadow. Fix this by
deferring the setting of the shadow's color until it is painted.
Also move duplicated drawing code from st_theme_node_paint() into
its own function.

The preference dialog for the panel clock does not set its gettext
domain, so it's not translated even if though translations are

Typo: 10000000 instead of 1000000 for a million. Also, use
G_INT64_CONSTANT instead of LL for a 64-bit constant, to avoid

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618189
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
Add --perf-output=<filename> option to gnome-shell that combines
the reports written for each run by the C/Javascript code into
a complete report.
If this option is not specified, a brief human-readable summary
is printed to stdout instead.
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 a helper function to write a string as UTF-8 to a GOutputStream.
The signature of GOutputStream:
gboolean g_output_stream_write_all (GOutputStream *stream,
const void *buffer,
gsize count,
gsize *bytes_written,
GCancellable *cancellable,
GError **error);
Can't currently be handled by GJS.
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

Move the code that starts gnome-shell and waits for it to exit

shell_perf_log_define_statistic()
Define a statistic and the corresponding event type
shell_perf_log_update_statistic_[ix]() -
Update the stored statistic value
shell_perf_log_add_statistics_callback()
Add a function called before collecting statistics
shell_perf_collect_statistics()
Update statistics and record events for them
In addition to the explicit collection, statistics are
recorded at a periodic interval (currently 5s)

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
ShellPerfLog provides a way for different parts of the code to
record information for subsequent analysis and interactive
exploration. Events exist of a timestamp, an event ID, and
arguments to the event.
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
The API docs for ShellApp claimed it sorted by the last time the
user interacted with the app, but if one closed a window, then
we would fall back to comparing against a possibly much older
timestamp from another window. Fix this by just keeping a
user time per app.
Also clean up the comparison function to explicitly check the state
instead of deferring to the window list.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618378
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().
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618371
I have no idea why there existed code that if we saw e.g. min-width

Starting with gtk-2.20.0 there is a gdk_screen_get_primary_monitor,

* 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

The StTable code only supports height-for-width. When called in
width-for-height sizing mode, instead of treating the -1 flag
value of 'for_width' as a real width, and requesting all the
children at 1 pixel wide, use the natural width of the table
as the width for determing the height.
Since we can't rewrap in width-for-height mode, we then report
the natural width also as the minimum width of the table.

The design calls for raising all windows for a given app in
certain circumstances; implement this. The new _focus method
raises all windows for the app if it's running.
We further change the _activate method (which a lot of the shell

that e.g. the application well will now raise all app windows.

When creating the directory to store user data, XDG_DATA_HOME is
not guaranteed to exist. Also, the standard mandates permissions

As StEntry handles hover differently depending on whether it is
activated or not, the generic hover support in StWidget is
insufficient. Nevertheless it makes sense to set the hover status
using StWidget methods instead of setting the pseudo class directly.
While the extension system already uses an XDG location (XDG_CONFIG_HOME),
other components use the deprecated $HOME/.gnome2 directory.
Replace both with XDG_DATA_HOME - the existing data (app usage stats,
looking glass history and extensions) is not migrated to the new location.

To avoid visual duplication with the application menu, eliminate
the window menu button. (The window menu can still be accessed by
right-clicking on the title bar, or Alt-right-clicking anywhere on the

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+.
