`AppIcon.shellWorkspaceLaunch()` can easily be replaced by checking for
`AppIcon.app` and calling `AppIcon.app.open_new_window()` directly.
For compatibility and to prevent breaking extensions implementing the
function, keep supporting the `shellWorkspaceLaunch` API in AppIcon
while logging a deprecation warning. Also keep supporting the API on
drag sources (without deprecating it) to allow extensions to define
custom actions on their drag sources.

If the search entry does not have any text typed in and a button press
happens outside of the search entry, we set key focus to NULL to make
the search entry appear unfocused.
This is quite intrusive and can easily cause unwanted focus changes, so
change the captured-event handler to only call `reset()` if the search
entry actually is focused.

Instead of returning and waiting until the old timeout is finished,
start a new idle hide timeout for the overlay when the pointer enters a
window clone. This makes sure the timeout for hiding the overlay after
the pointer left the clone mostly stays the same (except when leaving
the clone via the title or the close button).

As arrow functions have an implicit return value, an assignment of
this.foo = bar could have been intended as a this.foo === bar
comparison. To catch those errors, we will disallow these kinds
of assignments unless they are marked explicitly by an extra pair
of parentheses.

Calling await in a loop means the asynchronous operations are
run sequentially instead of in-parallel. Usually that's not
what's wanted, so eslint has a rule to warn about this.
However here we use async/await to handle control back to the
mainloop between steps, so running operations sequentially is
actually intended.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/731
The intention of the code is clearly to operate on a copy, but that's
not how the Object constructor works. While it doesn't matter in
practice that we modify the passed-in object parameter, it's still
a good idea to fix the code.

The legacy indent rule currently ignores arrow functions in parameters
to allow callbacks to not align with the other arguments:
this._someFunctionWithFairlyLongishName(arg1, arg2, arg3,
() => {
this._someOtherFunctionWithLongName(arg1);
});
But as ignoring entire nodes means we can end up with arbitrary
indentation, we should drop the exception. While this would make
the above "illegal" under the legacy config, it conforms with the
non-legacy style, so everything should be fine ...
... except that eslint starts to complain about some function args
that should be fine under the legacy config. Maybe it's thrown off
by the function-arg-in-arrow-function-in-function-arg structure, but
rather than figuring it out, let's just move those to the new style.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/725
We are currently inconsistent whether to put the operators in front
of the corresponding line or at the end of the preceding one. The
most dominant style for now is to put condition and first branch on
the same line, and then align the second branch:
let foo = condition ? fooValue
: notFooValue;
Unfortunately that's a style that eslint doesn't support, so to account
for it, our legacy configuration currently plainly ignores all indentation
in conditionals.
In order to drop that exception and not let messed up indentation slip
through, change all ternary operators to the non-legacy style.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/725
Some more places where the indentation doesn't comply with either
the old or new style. They slipped through because the legacy eslint
configuration accounts for some patterns by plainly ignoring certain
nodes. We'll address that later, first fix up the indentation errors.

When there is a transition, it's likely that we are animating some part
of the desktop, and in such situations we don't want to unredirect
fullscreen windows.
This fixes unwanted unredirection when e.g. hiding a modal dialog by
re-enabling the unredirection after the animation has finished, instead
of when it starts.

Updating the window list in the Looking Glass is a costly
operation: it destroys a whole lot of actors, and recreates
them. This triggers CSS changes, repaints, and allocations.
It is specially bad when paired with Wayland's big number
of window creations and deletions when showing Builder's
and Epiphany's popup window.
Only update the window list in the Looking Glass when it is
visible.

Since ES5, it is possible to create objects with no prototype at all:
let foo = Object.create(null);
Those object won't have any builtin properties like hasOwnProperty(),
which is why eslint added a corresponding rule to its default rule set.
While this isn't an issue that affects our code, there's no harm in fol-
lowing the recommendation and call the method through Object.prototype.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/716
We currently use no less than three different ways of indenting
object literals:
let obj1 = {
foo: 42,
bar: 23,
};
let obj2 = { foo: 42,
bar: 23 };
let obj3 = { foo: 42,
bar: 23
};
The first is the one we want to use everywhere eventually, while the
second is the most commonly used "legacy" style.
It is the third one that is most problematic, as it throws off eslint
fairly badly: It violates both the rule to have consistent line breaks
in braces as well as the indentation style of both regular and legacy
configurations.
Fortunately the third style was mostly used for tween parameters, so
is quite rare after the Tweener purge. Get rid of the remaining ones
to cut down on pre-existing eslint errors.

Since disabling an extension will lead to disabling and re-enabling all
following extensions in the list, always disable multiple extensions by
looping through the list in reverse order.
This lowers the execution time of the event handlers quite a bit if many
extensions are installed.
Thanks to Philippe Troin for identifying the problem and proposing the
initial patch to change the extension order when reloading.
Fixes https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/177https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/96
Only push uuids of newly enabled extensions to the `_extensionOrder`
array if enabling them was successful.
Otherwise, since `_callExtensionDisable()` doesn't remove uuids that
weren't successfully enabled from the array, those extensions get added
to the array multiple times when they're disabled and enabled.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/96
It's currently possible to circumvent the `sessionMode.allowExtensions`
property: For already enabled extensions one can call reloadExtension
via DBus, for new extensions it's possible by adding the extension to
the enabled-extensions gsettings key and setting the
disable-extension-version-validation key (which triggers a reload of
`this._enabledExtensions`) and then calling reloadExtension via DBus.
So to enforce `allowExtensions` while still allowing to update
extensions and keeping the extensionSystem synced with various gsettings
keys, replace the checks for `this._enabled` with simple checks for
`Main.sessionMode.allowExtensions` inside `_callExtensionInit()` and
`_callExtensionEnable()`.
The remaining checks for `this._enabled` are only small optimizations to
prevent running code on irrelevant sessionMode updates.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/96
Right now we're only handling added sessionMode extensions correctly on
sessionMode updates, also handle the other case and disable removed
sessionMode extensions on sessionMode updates.

Instead of only logging a message that loading the extension stylesheet
failed and silently returning we should use `logExtensionError` for that

When selecting an area for screenshot we monitor the events while we've valid
coordinates in order to redraw the rubber band.
However, we don't stop ignore the motion events after button release and so

We're using a vfunc override for `get_paint_volume` to exclude children
with an opacity of 0 from the paint volume and thus decrease the size of
the area we need to paint.
Now if the paint volume is requested during the spring animation (the
real icons are hidden using an opacity of 0 and clones are used for the
animation), `get_paint_volume` returns a paint volume with a height of
0. After that, the spring animation finishes and the icon-opacities are
set to 255 in `_resetAnimationActors`, and since we cache paint volumes
and there's no reason for Clutter to assume it got invalid, the icons
end up not being painted.
Fix this by queuing a relayout of the grid when the opacity of a child
is changed from or to 0, which manually invalidates the paint volume.
The reason why this is not an issue with the paginated icon grid
(all-apps view) is probably because StScrollView invalidates the paint
volume a lot more often than regular containers.

Commit 21e14bd46f fixed this for the
brightness slider, but we have the same problem for volume too. When the
volume is muted - for example in Settings or via a media key, we update
the slider to '0' to indicate this visually. But we also actually invoke
the slider's callback to *set* the volume to zero. That means that the
previous level is overwritten so it can't be restored when unmuting.
The fix is the same - when we update the slider internally ourselves,
don't call the signal handler.

Since we now put a short timeout in before the start of the actual pie
timer we don't start the timer as often as we used to. This allows us to
create a new PieTimer object each time a timeout is started and
therefore play a finish animation independently of other (new) timeouts.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/688
If the circle is complete and the pie timeout finished, we don't need
the lines to the center point indicating the ends of the pie anymore.
We just draw a clean circle instead, which allows for a zoom-out and
fade animation of the circle when we're done.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/688
If the pie timeout has finished successfully there's no need to cancel
the pie animation, instead we can just wait for that animation to finish

Fade the pie timer in using a duration of 1/4 of the timeout and a

Before the move to Clutters implicit animations with 0846238f6 and
bf497ed64, we used Tweener to do a fake-animation of the opacity and
Tweeners `onUpdate` signal to queue a repaint of the PieTimer everytime
Tweener tries to update the animation.
Now, with Clutters implicit animations, there is no `onUpdate` signal
anymore and also `notify::opacity` no longer gets emitted since the
value doesn't actually change. This lead to the PieTimer no longer being
repainted, which broke the animation.
Fix this by implementing the current angle of the pie using a custom
GObject property `angle` and animating this property using the new
`actor.ease_property` method.
Fixes https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/1533
When cancelling the animations of the icon grid, right now we simply
destroy all the clones without resetting the opacity and making the
actor reactive again. So if the spring animation to show the grid is
cancelled by pressing a key to start a search, the icon clones would be
destroyed, but the icon-opacity would still be set to 0. Now if the
Escape key is pressed, viewSelector will show the last active page (ie.
the iconGrid) without a custom animation and only fade in the page, and
because the icons still have an opacity of 0, they will be invisible.
Fix this by always restoring the opacity and reactive property of the
original actors if the animation is cancelled instead of only destroying
the clones.

Since we set the proxy value when the slider changes and set the slider
value on proxy property changes, we run into a cycle.
Before commit 3d3dca4aa this was addressed by not notifying on all slider
changes, but only in reaction to direct user action. Given that since the
splitting out of the BarLevel class those events are handled in a subclass,
that approach is at least unconvential and fairly fragile.
Instead, make the brightness indicator ignore any changes to the slider it
initiated itself.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/1500
With 8b368d010 we fixed a bug where the onComplete callback was always
called no matter whether the transition was interrupted before or not.
This exposed another bug: viewSelector depends on this behaviour when
fading out pages: After fading out a page, we call `this._animateIn` to
show the new page. Now if the fade-out animation gets interrupted, with
the correct behaviour of onComplete we end up not showing a new page and
the viewSelector remains empty instead. One case where this happens is
when pressing a key to start a search during the overview-animation.
Obviously we also want to show the new page in case the fade-out
animation was interrupted, so use the onStopped callback instead of the
onComplete callback here.

When a drag is cancelled and the source actor

Since the `notify::allocation` signal will obviously get emitted while
the actor is inside an allocation cycle and we might end up doing
changes to its allocation inside `updateSearch` by hiding or showing the
actor (which queues a relayout), we get a warning from Clutter.
Fix this by delaying the call to the parent method until the next
redraw, which should happen a few moments after the current relayout.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/672
Since commit 1a27ff6130 we use the
allocation width of the GridSearchResults actor to calculate the max
number of results that can be shown for this search provider.
On the first run of the search, when no previous (cached) allocation is
available for the actor of GridSearchResults, the allocation width used
in `_getMaxDisplayedResults` will be 0, which in turn will make
`updateSearch` filter out all results returned by the search provider.
Now if this search provider is the only search provider that's enabled,
after calling `updateSearch`, the `SearchResults` class will call
`_updateSearchProgress` to check if any results are visible, assume
nothing was found and therefore hide the scrollView. This in turn causes
the GridSearchResults actor to not get a new allocation, which prevents
our code to fixup the max number of results on `notify::allocation` from
working: The number will continue to be 0 and we'll never show any
results.
To fix this regression, return -1 in `_getMaxDisplayedResults` if the
allocation width is 0 to inform `updateSearch` that we can't calculate
the maximum number yet and interpret a return value of -1 as "show all
results" in `updateSearch`. The same problem would probably also appear
if the allocation width is anything between 0 and the width of the
iconGrid with one icon in it, although this might as well be a valid
width in case a very small screen is used or with very large icons. So
let's only check for a width of 0 and hope the GridSearchResults actor
won't get weird temporary allocations in that range.

When transitioning to or from the overview, windows travel
a certain distance between their real desktop position and
their place in the overview window grid. The less this travel
distance is, the smoother, more polished, and less jarring
the overall transition looks. This is why it makes sense to
try reordering and repositioning windows to minimize their
travel distance. That being said, there are other factors
that impact the quality of the overview layout, such as how
much the windows get scaled and what portion of the overall
available space they take up.
The existing code tries to minimize the travel distance by
sorting the windows in each row by their horizontal position.
There are, however, two problems with this implementation.
First, it compares the coordinates of windows' left edges as
opposed to their centers, which means it yields unexpected
results when a small window is positioned next to the left
edge of a large window. Second, it completely disregards
vertical coordinates, instead assigning windows to the grid
rows using their monotonically increasing window numbers,
effectively vertically sorting them by the order they were
created in.
This commit changes both vertical and horizontal ordering
to work based on the coordinates of the geometric centers
of the windows. That is to say, windows are first assigned
to grid rows based on the vertical coordinates of their
centers, and subsequently sorted inside each row based on
the horizontal coordinates of said centers. In my testing,
this leads to a much more intuitive and visually pleasing
window placement.

Those checks were carried over from the very first DND implementation;
if they were ever actually required at all, this is no longer the case
as we moved away from Tweener for all our animations.
The number of cases where an extension is still using Tweener, creates
draggable actors, *AND* requires the checks for proper functioning
should be indistinguishable from zero, so drop the code.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/669
By now, Tweener is used exclusively to animate changes to the
StAdjustment:value property. But not for long, as now that we
implement the same transition API as Clutter.Actor, we can
re-use the existing convenience method for property transitions
for adjustment changes as well.

The tracking was important in an earlier iteration, but as the helper

Commit 0f178c3b3d added a shortcirtuit to avoid running

Properties that aren't marked as animatable don't support *implicit*

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/666
While we are now using implicit animations for all animatable properties,
there are still some cases where we animate other actor properties (for
example from a custom subclass) or associated objects like effects.
Those can still be animated using Clutter animations, as long as we use
the explicit API rather than implicit animations. Again this API is
cumbersome and tricky enough to warrant a convenience wrapper.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/666
Clutter animations work on GObject properties on animatables. The
last commit took care of the latter by turning all animated objects
into actor subclasses, now it's time to make all properties used
in Tweens into GObject properties.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/666
We have a couple of places where we don't tween the actor, but a
custom property on the delegate object. In order to move those
to Clutter animations, we will need an animatable, so turn those
objects into widget subclasses.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/666
The set_brightness() method is the most convenient way of controlling
the effect's brightness, but Clutter animations only deal with properties,

Currently WindowDimmer exposes a JS property that is used to control the
underlying effect. This works fine with Tweener, but not with Clutter
animations which we want to use ultimately.
As a first step towards that, expose a setDimmed() method instead of
the property and handle the animation internally, so it can be adapted
more easily.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/666
We now have everything in place to replace Tweener for all animatable
properties with implicit animations, which has the following benefits:
- they run entirely in C, while Tweener requires context switches
to JS each frame
- they are more reliable, as Tweener only detects when an animation
is overwritten with another Tween, while Clutter considers any
property change

Setting up implicit animations is more verbose than using tweener, in
particular when setting up a callbacks to run on overwrite or completion.
In order to make its use more convenient, monkey-patch ClutterActor
with an ease() method that works similarly to Tweener.addTween().

Being able to slow down animations is a helpful debugging tool; to not
lose it when starting to use Clutter's implicit animations, monkey-patch
the appropriate methods to support our global slow down factor.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/22
As we currently use Tweener for all animations, we have a single place
for hooking up the enable-animations and slow-down-factor settings.
However that will no longer hold true when we'll start to use Clutter's
built-in animation facilities, so add a small helper function that
applies the necessary adjustments.

Notifications use a transition that overshoots the target value, however
we can only really do that for the position and not the opacity where
some values would end up out of the valid range.
We currently address this by proxying the actual opacity property in a
javascript property, and clamp it to the valid range in an onUpdate()
callback.
This won't be an option if we want to use Clutter animations, so instead,
use separate tweens for opacity and position.

Unlike Tweener, which doesn't know or care about actor state, Clutter
will skip implicit animations on actors that aren't mapped. This makes
sense of course, but it will break the page indicator animation we
do on map: When we get notified about the container being mapped, the
individual indicators (which are the actors being animated) are still
unmapped.
Resolve this by deferring the animation to a LaterFunc.

For animating the arrows on the screenshield, we currently use a custom
transition function that tweens the opacity from 0 to maxOpacity in the
first half of the animation, and from maxOpacity back to 0 in the second
half.
This doesn't easily translate to Clutter's own animation framework, so
replace the custom transition with two consecutive tweens which do.

Dash items are currently animated via the custom "childScale" and
"childOpacity" properties. However since commit efb3025d8c, those
properties actually control the scale-x/scale-y and opacity properties
of the actor itself (not the child), so cut out the intermediate
custom properties in favor of the "real" ones.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/22
When expanding a submenu, we currently use a single tween to animate
both the submenu actor and the source arrow. We do this by tweening
a monkey-patched JS property on the main actor, which we then use
to update the arrow's GObject property on updates. As Clutter cannot
animate random JS properties, this trick will prevent us from using
implicit animations here.
The only reason I can think of for using a single tween is to keep
both animations in perfect lock step, but as expansion and rotation
are visually quite distinct, this shouldn't be required, so just
set up separate animations for each actor.
