Right now the "move to workspace" keyboard shortcut transition isn't smooth. It
shows the window disappearing, hopping to the next workspace, and then sliding
into view. "Pin" the window to the stage while the animation is in progress,
then release it afterwards.

Install a custom handler for move-to-workspace-* keybindings that

Most of code implementing workspace switches was repeated with
minor differences on each direction. Instead, consolidate it
and use the new meta_workspace_get_neighbor.

When using dbus-glib, single return values were special-cased to

We strongly expect applications to use the same values for the
'Title'/'Icon' fields in their search provider .ini file as the
'Name'/'Icon' fields in their .desktop file. Rather than requiring
applications to duplicate those fields, allow them to specify a
'DesktopId' field instead to point to the corresponding .desktop
file, which makes it possible to ship search provider files without
translatable strings (which is nice given that merging translations
into search provider files lacks a standard rule).

Currently we pass an icon name for the 'icon' parameter of the

Use the ShellMountOperation dialogs we have to implement a DBus API
allowing other processes to display them.
Since GtkMountOperation now tries to call into our DBus implementation,
every application that uses a GtkMountOperation will gain integration
with our shell dialogs (but will still handle the actual communication
with GVfs).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=678516
Wait until the completion of the mount operation before dismissing the
passphrase dialog, so in case it fails, we can re-use the same dialog
with an error message (like e.g. PolicyKit auth dialogs) instead of
showing a brand new one.

Wifi and mobile broadband have signal indicators and are thus
more useful than vpn icons in the panel. Therefore, in the case

preserved: the wired icon is replaced by vpn.

Only apply the allowAutorun flag for transient notifications, not for
mounts that end up in the resident notification well.
Also, stop looking at volume.can_automount() here, since we already
checked that previously in the mounter, and allowAutorun is enough.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=660595
Previously, a volume was being ignored from autorun if one of these two
conditions were met:
- its mount root file had a native scheme and was mounted in a
non-hidden location
- it had a volume that could have been automounted, and had a flag set
by the shell to allow autorun
In order to effectively ignore volumes that we don't mount ourselves
from our notification system, we have to meet both conditions at the
same time instead.

This is a fallout from some changes in MessageTray.Source, which now
requires either defining the iconName/iconType properties on it, or
implementing createNotificationIcon, and we're not doing any of those.

method to create the icon actor on demand, to avoid any case when the
same actor might be added twice to different containers.

The dependency chain spirals out from folks->zeitgeist->xapian...and
I'm really not interested in pulling in all of that into the core

There is work on splitting out contact search into gnome-contacts; I'd
add a bug link but Bugzilla is down.
When the shell takes control of the screen (for example to show
a modal dialog or to lock the screen), it must reestablish itself
on top of the stack, and in particular restore any unredirected
window so that it is composited below the Shell UI.
Reviewed-By: drago01 in IRC.
There is a race if a channel is invalidated during its preparation: the
'invalidated' signal is already emitted so the Shell will never notice.
We fix this by simply checking if the channel is already invalidated when
receiving it from telepathy-glib.
In the approving case, we reject the full ChannelDispatchOperation as we only
support approving one channel at the time.

Initially, extensions were loaded after they shell had fully created

A large amount of extensions have something like this in them:

We explicitly include NoDisplay applications in the ShellAppSystem because
we want app tracking for them, but we explicitly filter NoDisplay applications

we did check for NoDisplay on the app item itself, we didn't check against
its parents. Refactor the app display view to not use a separate flat list

Show the dialog on the monitor containing the pointer, rather than

Do not overflow currentItems array. If the Menu section is filled

_startTimer adds a tweener to implement the description countdown, which
updates the entire content on each iteration, including the icon. This
causes a significant impact on performance, especially when accessibility

As the countdown only affects the description, factor out _updateDescription

Currently we only connect to the 'notify::n-workspaces' signal the
first time the overview is shown, which means we will miss any
changes to the workspace layout in the meanwhile.
In particular, the decision of whether the workspace switcher should be
shown is taken before the dynamic workspace handling takes over, and is
thus based entirely on the value of the num-workspaces user preference
rather than the actual number of workspaces.
Just connect the signal in _init() (with the nice side-effect to make it
explicit that the signal handler won't ever be disconnected).

Now that all searches are async we can remove the code path for the

As shown in the previous commits, synchronous search is easily implemented

Two nested scroll views were fighing with each other. The reason isn't

We seem to have a lot of code that does something along the lines of:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=672272
We hide the content around displaying new search results to prevent
flickering, unfortunately, one side effect of hiding an actor is
losing key focus if it currently is on the that actor or any

This patch works around that issue by saving the key focus and
resetting it back after displaying the new async results.

To avoid messing up St.Buttons' internal state with a pointer grab,

Tweener uses a clutter timeline to manage all active animations
running at a given moment. The timeline is mopped up when no
animations are going any more.
Clutter requires timelines to have a finite duration, but since
animations can happen at any moment, no fixed duration can
accomodate the shell's needs.
To combat this problem, the tweener code picks a relatively
long duration: 1000 seconds. No string of animations should take
that long, so, in theory, that should be good enough.
Unfortunately, this tactic fails, in practice, when the user
suspends their machine, or VT switches. An animation can take
much longer than 1000 seconds (~16 minutes) to complete in those
cases. When the user resumes, or VT switches back the timeline
completes immediately (since it's already late) and tweener
never notices that the timeline stops ticking.
This commit changes the tweener timeline to automatically loop
back to 0 after completing, so that despite its fixed duration
property, it effectively never stops. Since the timeline loops,
its concept of elapsed time no longer increases monotonically,
so we now ignore it and track time ourselves with
GLib.get_monotonic_time().
This partially reverts commit

Bailing out of _sync() early if the application lost keyboard focus to

In the workspace-collecting code we add a check to avoid collecting a

Some modifiers like NumLock or ScrollLock don't make sense in

The hide animation causes hover notifications for the actors inside the
boxpointer. PopupBaseMenuItems, in particular, grab the keyboard focus on
hover notifications to enable keyboard navigation on menus. This, in turn,
breaks modal dialogs' keyboard navigation since key focus is taken away from a

Since input events aren't useful while menus are animating we just prevent
them from propagating.

With the recent keynav changes, the keyboard focus can now move
away from the search entry while a search is active. While we
keep the focus entry style while a search is active, we set the
cursor visibility depending on whether the entry has focus. This
doesn't seem very logical, so always request to show the cursor
when we appear focused.
Note that at least for now we are just expressing intent, as clutter
never draws the cursor for unfocused entries.
When canceling a search pressing Escape while the focus is on the
search entry we clear the entry, set its text to the hint and go back
to the previously selected tab. Make this the behavior also for when
the focus is on search results and not on the entry itself.
