The Frequent apps grid has a few problems:
* On a fresh install there would be no history of app usage so the
applications shown in the grid have no relevance it takes time
to be useful instead of being useful from the start;
* The grid has far too many items in it to be relevant; 24 apps is
well beyond the average use case as most people don't frequently
use that many, so it gets populated with several apps that are
single use (hello xterm);
* The position of items in the grid are always changing based on an
unknown frequency metric (and not by user-intended input) which
makes it a poor way to quickly launch apps as one would have to
constantly learn the positions of the items in the grid;
* Having two app grids is a bit superfluous and needlessly complicates
the app launching navigation: you have to spend time checking the
frequent grid and if it's not there you have to switch over to another
grid and find the app you need in there it's not straightforward.
Remove the Frequent tab and simplify the related code.

With color picking implemented in the compositor, we
can do better than letting the user pick a pixel with
the crosshair cursor, and present them with a preview
of the color that will be selected.
Do this by replacing the cursor with a custom icon and
apply a recoloring effect, where we replace a given color
with the color of the currently hovered pixel (similar
to a green screen).

Since quite a few strings of dialogs provided by external programs are
not updated yet and the string freeze is already in effect, make sure we

To do that, detect if the title label is larger than the available width
and if it is, switch to a smaller font-size of 13pt. This makes sure we
still show about the same number of characters in the headline as we did
in previous releases.

Since the caps-lock warning adds a lot of spacing to dialogs and the

The RenameFolderMenu uses the internal box as a menu item, while PopupMenu
expects to have PopupBaseMenuItem based children with a delegate set.
Instead of using a custom menu with a customized box acting as menu
item,just add a RenameFolderMenuItem that inherits from the parent,
adjusting the features as we need them. In fact, the rename folder menu item
doesn't need any label, padding or default styling so we can reuse
PopupMenuBaseItem after we use our styling properties and we set the
Ornament to HIDDEN.
To get the proper style in place, define rename-folder-popup and
rename-folder-popup-item to override the default popup-menu-item rule
padding instead of using margins.
Pass the menu item as menu's focusActor as this will key-focus it on pop-up,
by overriding the key_focus_in() vfunc we can then delegate the focus
handling to the entry's clutter-text.
Also override the map() vfunc in order to update the entry's content before
mapping the entry.
Finally, use the item's activate method in order to tell the parent menu
we're done with it and that the menu can be closed.
As consequence we can also remove the menu's popup() method, and just use
the default open().

While mutter supports a variety of different grid layouts (n columns/rows,

Unlike the app grid, we show the search results while the dash is hidden
and with a small scrollbar instead of page indicator dots. This
means there's nothing the search results might horizontally overlap
with and the padding here is unneccessary.
The spacing between the search results and the screen edges is still
sufficient because of the paddings applied to searchResultsContent.
On very small screens (< 1000px), this allows the search results to
utilize a lot more of the horizontal screen space.

This keyboard works similar to GTK+'s emoji chooser (actually, both pull
from the same JSON file). Emojis are categorized in sections and variants
and kept in a "model".
The EmojiPager actor then uses this model to generate pages on-the-fly as
the user swipes around. This is an important optimization since the amount
of actors would rival with the rest of the shell otherwise.
The EmojiSelection object puts the EmojiPager, the page indicators and
a KeyContainer with the bottom row of emoji section shortcuts together to
implement the emoji panel as a whole.
The Keyboard object hooked this to an "emoji" key, which is just visible
on the Clutter.InputContentPurpose where showing an emoji would be
meaningful. Otherwise the surrounding buttons are made a bit wider to
cover up for it (i.e. as it was before).
The OSK panel uses 1/3rd of the monitor height, plus we specify a minimum
size for the keys. This doesn't play along if contents won't fit (short
monitor, big fonts, ...) pushing contents offscreen. Reduce the minimum
size a bit so there's better chances to fit.
Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/675
Since commit 447bf55e45 we turn the top bar translucent when

The previous implementation of the CSS generation logic considered sassc
an optional dependency and made sure for that reason that the result CSS
files ended up in the source directory, so that they could be checked
in and kept in sync with the source sass files.
As we are making sassc a required dependency, we can now stop doing that
extra work and simply rely on the CSS files being automatically generated
each time the sass sources change. By doing this, we can now effectively
get rid of the CSS files checked in the repo as well as of the parse_sass.sh
script, since the CSS files will now live on the build directory only.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=792822
As the style has grown bigger and more complex, generating the different
variants from a common source has been a good decision. However given how
intertwined the theme is with gnome-shell itself, relying on a submodule
has proven to be quite painful. And as things stand right now, it is going
to get worse:
- using either pre-generated CSS or generating it at build time is
odd, and violates meson's strict separation between source- and
build directories; we are therefore considering dropping the CSS
and depending on sassc to always generate it at build time
- with the migration to gitlab, our workflow shifts decisively towards
branches; however there is no support in either git or gitlab for
handling two brances of separate repositories consecutively, which
gets particularly awkward for branches in a private namespace
With those pain points in mind, we will adjust our setup as follows:
- remove the submodule from gnome-shell and instead import the
sass as subtree
- after that, the sass sources can be changed like any other files
in the repository, and regular contributors can forget that there
was ever anything special about them
- whenever we want to update the classic style, we can push the subtree
changes and bump gnome-shell-extension's sass submodule
In other words: Updating the classic styling will become slightly more
painful, but not much and only for me; in return, everyone else can
stop fiddling with submodules (and buy me a beer).
All section titles use an icon, while all corresponding submenu items
are plain-text. As a result, labels in submenus aren't aligned with
the labels in the parent, which makes them harder to read and look
unbalanced. Address this by adding additional whitespace to submenu
items to account for the additional elements in the title.

The legacy tray introduced as part of the notification redesign in
3.16 was meant as a stop-gap solution to encourage applications to
move away from the concept of status icons, but it hasn't really
done anything except of getting in the way. Given that the large
majority of apps that still make use of status icons work perfectly
fine without them, we decided that it is time to drop this unloved
bit of UI altogether. Users who still want them (or use one of the
odd cases where an app really depends on the icon) can install one of
various extensions that are available, either based on the XEmbed
support that is still kept around or implementing the DBus-based
StatusNotifier spec.

While the new title position gives the previews more space, they now

With the window titles no longer being shown as part of the previews
grid, we can reduce the spacing to have more space available to the
window previews themselves.

We consider the window previews the primary way to identify a window,
