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to rename the outdated AllAppDisplay to AppDisplay; it will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.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=658091
The current insensitive style for buttons needs to be improved. Right
now we just change the text color: this doesn't make it clear that the
button is actually insensitive.
Instead of just changing the text color, we make the button background
almost transparent. We also make the text color the same as the border
color, use a thinner border.
This patch also simplifies some border rule overwrites to emphasis
only the border width is changed on focus, and makes the button look
closer to the mockups.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=687110
Change the layout strategy to be more like the mockups. With less than
two rows of windows, we try to fit every window in a non-aligned situation;
with more than three rows of windows, we try to fit every window in an
aligned situation.
Based heavily on a patch from Pierre-Eric Pelloux-Prayer <pelloux@gmail.com>
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=582650
This is a workaround for power users for the "Show Apps" button
placement being too inconvenient to press at the bottom of the
dash favorites list.
Unity also uses Super+A to show the Apps lens.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685738
The application menu is currently unusable with non-maximized
windows when using focus-follows-mouse mode. Override mutter's
focus-change-on-pointer-rest preference, so that the actual
focus change is delayed until the pointer stops moving.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=678169
Currently the layout of the password prompt differs slightly between
login dialog and unlock screen - for the former, the prompt is
displayed next to the user avatar, replacing the user name, for
the latter, it is diplayed below both avatar and name.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685201
The message tray is now modal and pushes the view up, but the keyboard
is shown below it. Solve this by applying a special styling to the
keyboard and message tray combination, and by not pushing the windows
up when the keyboard is shown.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=683546
The speed and quality properties have been removed in favor of properties
closer to the upstream library.
Removing the properies from the pipeline would result into a huge
slowdown so we have to map the old values to the new ones.
According to the source code of the old vp8enc element quality maps to
(int)(63 - quality * 6.2) for min_quantizer and max_quantizer, while
speed maps to cpu-used = speed == 0 ? 0 : (speed - 1).
So set min_quantizer and min_quantizer to 13, and cpu-used to 5 based on
the above formulas.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=684206
The selector for insensitive popup menu items was wrong (a PopupMenuItem is
a ShellGenericContainer, not a StButton). Fixing it showed that previous
:insensitive tracking was manual for a reason: we have many items that are
not reactive, but don't want the insensitive styling (for example those in
the battery menu).
Fix it by adding a new style-class, popup-inactive-menu-item, that is added
to all new PopupMenuItems that are not activatable.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=683988
They are bigger and show an ellipsis if the count goes over 99. They
now have a blurred background and a drop shadow based on
data/theme/close-window.svg.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682891
The special padding rules for submenu items currently ensure that
content aligns properly when the scrollbar is shown. While they
work nicely for the network menu, it looks odd for non-scrolled
submenus, so make this case explicit by introducing a :scrolled
pseudo class and adjust the style rules to use it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=683009
The searchProvider interface originally used a GetResultMeta method to
return meta data of a single id; when it was changed to GetResultMetas,
the return value was not updated accordingly.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=683482
Instead of showing a notification, add a small message immediately
below the entry, and give the user two more attempts to login,
before going back to the welcome or lock screen.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682544
Change the padding values of #summary-mode to be 6px on right and left
to match the values in .summary-source, which determine the padding
between the top and bottom edges of the tray and the items.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682248
Introduce a StShadowHelper to manage drop shadows from JS (which
cannot use Cogl directly), and use it in a new StWidget-derived
JS class to draw the arrow.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682285
User testing has shown that it is not discoverable that the whole
lock screen can be dragged. A new mockup includes more arrows
and a short animation every 4 seconds.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682285
Each summary icon is 48x48 with a padding of 6px on each side. Thus,
each summary item is 60px wide. Therefore the summary mode should be
60px high instead of 72px.
Changed the tray actor to use a ClutterBinLayout so that it honors the
y-expand property of its children.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682248
The height of an unexpanded notification could include expanded
content if the notification has extra widgets (like actions and images),
so tweening to that cause it to expand visually.
Instead, use the height of the message tray before the restyle
as an upper bound.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682738
This makes the workspace indicator respect the "padding" style attribute.
Also, since we no longer draw the border on top of the thumbnail,
we need to be pixel-precise in allocating the indicator height.
We use this to make the workspace selector more similar to the mockup.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=662087
The fingerprint message is useful for users that click their
names in the user list to let them know if fingerprint login
is available.
This same place on screen (below the login entry) can potentially
be used for other messages as well.
This commit changes the variable and style names surrounding
this feature to be more generic.
A subsequent commit will leverage this functionality to provide
a hint on how to log in to the local enterprise domain controller
(if relevant).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=681975
This will help to ensure that it doesn't distract from the other
elements in the overview, such as the dash, window thumbnails and
workspace switcher.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682342
In the new designs, we no longer need favRemoveTarget. As it shares a lot
of its functionality with the new showAppsIcon, we refactor and restyle it
accordingly.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682109
The original design for the overview had buttons for searching for
Wikipedia and Google, but in practice this is a bad idea. The buttons
are the default activations, meaning that using the overview as a
fluent motion of launching something - "firefxo<Enter>", will launch
Google/Wikipedia.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=670168
We don't need .summary-source-button:selected because we are moving the
focus to the summary item when it is clicked and therefore it is always
focused.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=681519
The currently used style works well in "normal" mode, where the
tray is shown to be located beneath the window layer (pushing the
latter up when revealed). It does not work very well in the overview,
so use the same style as dash and workspace switcher there.
Reduce padding around persistent sources, and ensure that spacing
around resident notifications is only applied once.
Also, add some padding to the clock.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=681143
Unlike the fallback gdm UI, we do not indicate in the user list
whether a user already has an open session or not. This information
is useful, so use a spotlight effect similar to the running-app
indicator to mark logged in users.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=658185
We want to style user list items differently depending on whether
the list is expanded or shrunk; instead of manually updating the
items' style, we can just expose the :expanded style on the list
itself and use that in the CSS.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=658185
Until the recent style changes, the same element was used to indicate
both item focus and progress for timed logins. As focus is now indicated
by the item's background style, rename the indicator from focusBin to
timedLoginIndicator and make some minor adjustments to better fit the
new style:
- move it next to the icon below the text
- give it a white color and a shadow
- update animation to grow from the left instead of the center
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=660913
Rather than changing the text color to indicate hover and an underline
to mark the focused item, use the same semi-transparent white background
as in the overview.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=660913
Track screen lock status in the message tray, and filter banner
notifications. The message tray is completely hidden when the screen is
locked, but exceptions can be made for individual transient notifications,
such as shell messages and the on screen keyboard.
Non transient sources are shown in the middle of the lock screen. Resident
notifications (such as those from Rhythmbox) are shown in full, while
persistent ones are displayed as icon and message count.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619955
The design calls for the curtain to appear in the gdm greeter too.
Implement this by having the screenshield manage the login dialog
(delegating its creation to SessionMode).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619955
This separates the screen shield into two main screens. One is
the lock screen, and it is shown when coming back from idle status
and when failing authentication. The other is the actual unlock
dialog.
Moving from the first to the second is possible by pressing Escape
or by dragging an arrow on the bottom on the screen.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619955
When the screenshield is deactivated, instead of going back to the
session immediately, prompt the user for authentication.
This essentially reinstates what used to be provided by gnome-screensaver.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619955
