Add the view selector and adjust the positioning of elements in the
overview. Unlike the old dash, the view selector is made public to
indicate that extensions may add additional views or search providers.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
As workspaces will appear as a particular view in the view selector,
merge WorkspacesControls and WorkspacesManager to control workspaces
and related controls, so that a single actor can be added to the
selector instead of positioning the elements from the overview.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
The new layout does no longer support view switching, so merge
GenericWorkspacesView and SingleView, and remove MosaicView.
Also rename or remove workspace properties and functions which
are now unused.
The grid will have a comeback with the new DND behavior.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
Being no longer an independent menu pane, both the toggle() and
close() functions are no longer needed, and the view's structure
can be simplified a bit.
Also update the style to fit into the view selector.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
The view selector should only deal with view switching, so move the
logic to deal with search (find-as-you-type, cancelling a search,
navigating/activating results) into the SearchTab.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
The view selector is a tabbed interface with a search entry. Starting
a search switches focus to the results' tab, ending a search moves the
focus back to the previously selected tab. Activating a normal tab
while a search is active cancels the search.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
With the new layout, search results will be displayed in an independent
view like window previews, applications and possible future additions;
it does not make much sense keeping it with the switching logic, so move
the code to its own file.
Also remove the dash-prefix from the relevant style classes.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
The new dash implementation is a single-column vertical sidebar,
whose items are scaled dynamically to fit the available height.
If the height is still exceeded after scaling down to a minimum
item size, excess items are cut off.
The now unused old dash implementation is renamed to OldDash, as
its code will be used as a base for the new view selector element.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
As the button to add workspaces will move to the same position as
the new workspace drop area in drag mode, the latter is redundant
and can be removed.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
Overlaying inactive workspaces with a gradient to fade out the actors
does no longer work when re-using the normal desktop background. If
we keep the current DND behavior, we probably want to implement a real
fade effect - for now, just remove the visually disruptive shadows.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
While scaling the desktop background with the window previews represents
workspaces quite intuitively, the approach is not without problems.
As window previews in the overview behave quite differently to "real"
windows, the representation of workspaces as miniature versions of
"real" workspaces is flawed. The scaling also makes the transitions
to and from the overview much more visually expensive, without adding
much benefit.
Leaving the background in place provides more visual stability to the
transitions and emphasizes the distinctive behavior of elements in the
overview.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
The layout of recent mockups occupies the space previously reserved
for the info bar with the view selector. As the bar's purpose is
mainly to provide the user with feedback, it makes sense to use the
existing message tray facility instead of moving the bar elsewhere.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
The scrollbar is the main culprit for cluttered controls in the
linear view - all its functionality is already provided by the
workspace indicators, so it is save to remove the scrollbar in
order to clean up the interface.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
Instead of hiding the drag actor temporarily to determine the actor
beneath it, make it invisible to picks while dragging using the new
shell_util_set_hidden_from_pick().
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634560
The code to draw the root background has now been moved into Mutter,
with added smarts to not draw obscured portions. Remove the old
version of the code and clone the Mutter background actor to draw
the background in the overview.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634836
Add a "gicon" property so that a GIcon can be used instead of an
icon name, while still getting icon recoloring from the theme.
Also include a compatibility wrapper in libshell until GJS has
support for interface static methods.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=622451
gnome-volume-control-applet was renamed to gnome-sound-applet when
moved to the control-center module, so we need to check for both names
when identifying the legacy status icon.
It was decided at GNOME Summit that we would remove the invisible
setting until we have a better story for how it works with chat
and other sharing/messaging applications. We'd also need to
figure out how it relates to busy.
The action is far less common than powering off. It is mostly
used for performing system updates so the update tool should
offer the option directly. Also, currently the Shut Down option
dialog offers Restart anyway. We would like to keep the number
of entries in this menu as limited (close to 7) as we can.
Switch from St.TextureCache.load_named_icon() to using St.Icon for named
icons. Along with the advantage of getting colorization right for symbolic
icons, this allows moving some icon sizes into the CSS.
In the CSS, the system status icon size is changed to be 1em (=16px for the
default font size), at the request of the artists. See bug 613448.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=633865
gnome-settings-daemon has moved to GSettings for most settings, we
should adapt as well. The only remaining GConf key is for metacity
(visual bell).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634693
Waiting for LookingGlass to close after calling St.set_slow_down_factor()
is annoying so divide the time for opening and closing by the slow-down
factor.
As popup menus now take focus for keyboard navigation, no application
is focused when activating the menu. Use the target application instead,
which keeps track of the application currently associated with the menu.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634103
Action names sometimes unintentionally overlap with icon names, so
we should only create icon buttons if the message tray source requests
it. For the notification daemon, this is done by setting the
'action-icons' hint on the notification.
The previous notification server capability used to advertise this
feature, "x-gnome-icon-buttons", has been removed in favour of the
new capability described in the notification spec, "action-icons".
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=624584
We shouldn't hide the tray as quickly if the user might have left it
unintentionally, such as when moving the mouse over to a different tray item or
using the scroll bar in the chat notification.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=630767
This way the new modal level is independent of whatever may have been
happening before. Fixes a problem with status menus becoming active
again from inside the app switcher, etc.
Tray icons replaced by a shell version are automatically filtered
and never make to the tray container, but when removed by the client
we were still trying to remove them from the tray, causing a warning.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=633028
Each menu is a focus manager group, but there is also some explicit
focus handling between non-hierarchically-related widgets. Eg, to move
between menus, or from a menubutton into its menu.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621671
The constructor was setting this.active to reflect the switch state,
which is wrong; this.active indicates whether or not the item is
highlighted.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621671
Adding a "PopupMenuRadioButtonItem" wouldn't work well, because we'll
need radio-button indicators on multiple different styles of menu
item. Also, the current design draws the indicator in the menu item's
padding, so it's sort of special anyway. So just add support at the
BaseMenuItem level.
Also, redo the menu/menuitem padding so that all the horizontal
padding is in the menu item, or else the indicator dot will show up in
the wrong spot.
