Every action has specific associated terms that
identify that action and show it in the search
results. Methods to match the actions as well
as getting properties of specific actions are
needed in order to provide a way of using the
actions.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=691900
We want to be able to search for available system actions, so
rather than tracking each action in a separate property, store
them in a single map that can be searched in a generic and clean
way.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=691900
In anticipation of showing the system actions in
the search results, it is fit to move action
specific code to its own module in order to
reuse it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=691900
The current behavior wasn't designed, but was introduced in commit
84efaac52b to work around technical limitations when we were still
using external tools like gnome-screensaver or gnome-session-quit
to handle the actions. Those limitations are long gone, so it makes
sense to make the actions consistent with the corresponding keyboard
shortcuts: Leave the overview when launching an application, and leave
it alone otherwise.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=691900
Users already have to trust their OS, so asking whether an OS component
should be allowed to perform an OS operation is odd at best, if not
confusing. Account for this by allowing system components that require a
keyboard grab to work - namely Setting's keyboard shortcuts panel - to
do so without triggering the permissions dialog.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=786146
This drops the requirement that SwitcherPopups need a modifier based
keybinding to work.
The existing behavior for modifier based keybindings is kept but if
the popup is triggered from a no modifiers keybinding, instead of
finishing when the modifier is released, we use a timer that
automatically finishes the popup. The timer is reset on every key
release to allow navigation to happen.

GWeather now provides us with API to request strings that don't
use sentence capitalization, so we can use it for summaries that
don't start a sentence to make for more natural phrases.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779873
As in commit b2b2f65 and furthermore it doesn't make much sense to
change the menu item according to the number of connections since all
connections here are of the same type.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=786520
The new control-center shell split wifi configuration from the network
panel, and moved all other devices into a flat list. So instead of
manually spawning the app with the 'show-device' subcommand, we can
now simply launch the appropriate settings panel.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=786520
To make search more efficient, users don't need to move the actual
keyboard focus away from the search entry to activate the first
result. However the shift+f10 shortcut to pop up the context menu
via keyboard still acts on the actually focused widget, which is
the entry. It makes more sense to open the context menu of the
selected result instead, as that's what's highlighted and responds
to keyboard activation.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=675315
Otherwise the smaller icons will try to take too much space since the
texture rendering the icons will be scaled up on HiDPI displays according
to the scale factor, which will push the size of the StBin containing the
texture up, causing them to completely fill the folder's total space.
Explicitly setting the size of the StBin container in this case, in a
similar fashion to what we do when creating the empty placeholders (in
case where there are less than 4 apps in a folder), ensures that each
"cell" of the grid-like widget representing the folder does not take
too much space.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=786145
We need to consider the scaling factor in effect when updating the user's
avatar, and also make sure to update it as well whenever the scaling
factor changes.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=786120
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.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=785956
Currently the chrome layer decides itself which events on the window
clone should show or hide the chrome, which makes it harder to extent.
Instead, move the decision to the window clone by letting it emit
show/hide-chrome events when appropriate.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=783953
Previews are currently limited to at most 70% of the actual window
size. This was done to indicate more clearly that the overview is
active and the window cannot be interacted with. However since then
other indications like the vignette effect have been added, so
artificially limiting the preview size doesn't look necessary anymore.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=783953
Now that only one window title is visible at any time, it no longer
matters if a title extends into other window previews, so we can
always show the full title.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=783953
While the new title position gives the previews more space, they now
overlay the content which may hide valuable information. Address this
by only revealing the title as additional information on hover, like
we do for other auxiliary elements.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=783953
We consider the window previews the primary way to identify a window,
so it makes sense to give them as much space as possible. So in order
to not have title captions take up too much vertical space, overlay
them on top of the preview borders.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=783953
We currently expand the workspace switcher when workspaces are being
used, that is when there are any windows on a non-active workspace.
While this helps with the switcher's discoverability, it does eat into
the space available for window previews. By now the component should
be well established, so we can afford opting for space efficiency and
only expand the switcher while the user actually interacts with it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=783953
The overview's window picker is primarily about windows, and as the
previews that represent them are more effective the bigger they are,
it makes sense to scale down competing elements; start by reducing
the size of workspace thumbnails on the right ...
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=783953
Instead of potentially loading a background mid-way when it changes, and
loading it again for every file monitor event, leverage
CHANGES_DONE_HINT events, which allow us to ignore CREATED and CHANGED
signals from the file monitor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=747794
About every other situation can do with synchronizing keyboard visibility,
and keyboard layout changes are already handled internally in the Keyboard
object.
A downside of this approach is that once created, there will always be a
Keyboard instance and its full actor hierarchy. Seems reasonable to do that
since we can't tell it won't ever be needed.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=785309
In case where a method- and property name overlap, using the method
is less unambiguous than I thought - mozjs52-based gjs will only see
the method, while mozjs38-based gjs will only see the property. We
are in luck though, and the real property name contains dashes that
allow us to refer to the property in a way that works for all gjs
versions.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=785090
Meson is on track to replace autotools as the build system of choice,
so support it in addition to autotools. If all goes well, we'll
eventually be able to drop the latter ...
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=783229
ClutterActor has both a has_pointer() method and a :has-pointer
property (that we represent as 'has_pointer'). So far gjs was
able to deal with the name overlap, but now trying to use the
property will instead test for the availability of the method.
Just avoid the conflict by switching to the method, which is
unambiguous.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=785090
We now cancel animations on override, however we also want to cancel
animations altogether on unmap (that is, when hiding the overview)
to avoid icons swarming into the void.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736148
Until now we were waiting the animation to complete to allow the user to
make a new animation. This could bring some problems and annoy nervous
users.
Instead of that, destroy clones on new animations triggers and
create a new animation with the new direction.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736148
The animation needs the icons' final positions, so we currently defer
it to a ::notify::allocation handler; however as starting the animation
during an allocation cycle would trigger a Clutter warning, it is
further deferred to a MetaLater. While this usually works, it is possible
that the allocation is already valid when we connect the signal, in which
case the animation is triggered at a later unexpected time. Switch to
a more robust ::paint handler instead, which also allows us to get rid
of the double-delay.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736148
Any symbols (including class properties) that should be visible
outside the module it's defined in need to be defined as global.
For now gjs still allows the access for 'const', but get rid of
the warnings spill now by changing it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=785084
Symbols that are defined with 'let' are no longer visible outside
the module that defines them. To unbreak the code base, define all
non-private properties as global.

The first time that the session is started, it can happen that the
AT SPI hasn't been correctly initialized, and this results in a crash
when attempting to register the caret or focus listeners.
In order to avoid this, these changes check the result of initializing
the AT SPI, to allow further attempts when it has failed.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=785047
Customization of keycombo actions for strips/rings was lost in the
porting to new incarnation of Wacom support.
The UI here is slightly different, instead of requiring the user to
rotate/swipe in each direction to map each keycombo, the UI will
navigate the user through edition of both options, first one, then
the other.

Commit 39a840e2c3 added an additional parameter to shell_app_launch().
When adjusting callers, the parameter was also added accidentally to

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781471
The method currently catches errors that occur when calling the
extension's init() method, but throws itself an error if the
expected extension.js file is missing. The former is pointless
if we expect all callers to handle errors themselves anyway, and
we should avoid the latter if we don't - opt for the second option
and handle a missing extension.js file gracefully.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781728
While we catch errors that occur when calling init(), enable() or
disable(), the import itself can throw an exception, for instance
if the extension imports an unavailable typelib or tries to draw
in a conflicting library.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781728
Both reloadExtensions() and enableExtensions() are already expected
to catch extension errors. If they don't, this is the bug that
should be fixed instead of catching unhandled exceptions in the
caller.
This reverts commit ff425d1db7.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781728
Those will go away when we port authentication prompts to the new
MessageDialogContent widget, so pick the style classes from there
and adjust individual properties with more specific rules to re-
produce the existing style.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=784985
A lot of our modal dialogs share a similar structure:
[Icon] Some title
Maybe a subtitle
And sometimes even a body for stuff like
longer descriptions.
A dedicated widget with a common style will allow us to significantly
reduce duplication of both code and CSS.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=784985
This is the basic dialog actor implementation, which will allow us to
use the same implementation on the session-global modal dialogs. The
ModalDialog class now uses it underneath, and so do all users of it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=762083
let trackChrome accept actors that are not children of chrome actors.
this will be useful for the MetaCloseDialog in gnome-shell, which
is already included in the MetaWindowGroup, but needs to be tracked
as chrome for the dialog to receive pointer events on X11.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=762083
The actor allocation will be invalid on CLUTTER_TOUCH_BEGIN, because
it comes together with a CLUTTER_ENTER event that will recalculate
styles, and queue a relayout in result.
The net result is that on CLUTTER_TOUCH_BEGIN, the relayout has been
already queued, so the slider width comes up as 0, and the value ends
up as 1. Later touch events already happen on a validated actor, so
it is corrected. Still, not fun when modifying the volume slider on a
touchscreen.
Having descriptions with multiple lines will clutter
the view and make it more confusing for the user. Apart
from that, it also makes the search result a lot bigger,
potentially losing general vertical alignment.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749957
The classes extending the SearchResult can now connect
to the 'terms-changed' signal emitted by the SearchResult
class. This signal enables each object to update its
internal description in order to apply the bold style
onto strings that match the search terms.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749957
In order to prepare for applying the bold style to the part
of the description that matches the search terms, we need
to listen for the signal that announces the fact that the
search terms have changed. Given the fact that the
SearchResults class is aware of the changes regarding the
search terms, the classes that extent SearchResult need
to have a reference to it in order to listen for the
to-be-implemented 'terms-changed' signal.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749957
Since results are now much more concise and take up less
space, we can use the 'saved' space to provide the user
with more search results for each provider.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749957
The current separator uses a gradient effect as a separator
between search results. As the mockups suggest, the gradient
separator is no longer needed, in favor of a more simple one,
which is a thin semitransparent line.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749957
In order to match the current mockups, the providerIcon
class needed to include both the name of the provider
and the label that informs the user about how many more
search results are available for that specific provider.
The latter replaces the plus sign icon that has been
used so far.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749957
In order to make gnome-shell search functionality fit on
smaller screens, like those of devices, search results
need to take advantage of more horizontal space so that
any extra space can be used efficiently.
In order to do so, change the layout of the ListSearchResult
class from a vertical one, to a horizontal one and also
decrease the padding of the list-search-result-content css
class.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749957
If the padOsd is given a nonexistent ring/strip, things would fail
badly later when trying to paint a 0x0 StLabel. Just avoid creating
more ring/strip labels than those known by libwacom.
This is unlikely to happen, but seems better to protect against it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=782033
The porthole will not be destroyed when the scale factor changed.
That makes workspace thumbnail porthole still wrong size in the first

PopupMenu needs special-treatment of certain types of menu items,
which it determines via children's _delegate property. However as
the calendar drop-down is very unmenu-ish, we use regular actors
rather than PopupMenuItems and the missing _delegate property
triggers a warning. Just add it as the bare minimum to make
PopupMenu happy.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781471
The destroy effect currently relies on a monkey-patched property
added from the map effect. However on X11 it is possible that we
did no map animation for a window that is destroyed when the shell
was restarted or had taken over from another WM. Just use the real
MetaWindow property to avoid a warning in that case.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781471
It's possible for updateRegions() to be called before monitors have
been properly initialized. Instead of throwing an error in that case,
just skip the strut computation (that doesn't make sense anyway without
a monitor).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781471
findMonitorForActor() may be called before the layoutManager gets
to initialize monitors, so make sure the monitor index is in range
to avoid a warning.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781471
Don't try to access a non-existent engine - it probably makes sense to
use Map() instead of a plain object to track engines in the future, but
for now just add an additional check to shut up a warning.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781471
We only use lastItem() to reset the history index to the end, so
nobody noticed the utter nonsense in the return value until gjs
started to warn about it. As we don't actually use the value
anywhere, we could just remove it, but the function name implies
that an item is returned, so fix it to behave as advertised.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781471
We need to track the open-status of indicator menus, but don't want
to hook up signals more than once, so we check for the handler ID
we store on the object. As the property is only defined once we did
set up the signal connection, this check now logs a warning. We
can avoid it by checking for the existence of the property rather
than a particular value.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781471
To avoid recreating the app menu unnecessarily, the panel checks
whether the menu's current actionGroup already matches the target
one. However as the menu's actionGroup property is currently private,
the test always fails, whoops.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781471
We currently use "array[index]" to test whether an array has an
element at index before using it. However nowadays gjs warns about
accessing non-existent array elements, so the test itself already
produces a warning. Avoid this by checking the array length before
using an index to access an element.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781471
While we've always considered it good style to initialize JS properties,
some code that relies on uninitialized properties having an implicit
value of 'undefined' has slipped in over time. The updated SpiderMonkey
version used by gjs now warns when accessing those properties, so we
should make sure that they are properly initialized to avoid log spam,
even though all warnings addressed here occur in conditionals that
produce the correct result with 'undefined'.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781471
The user list uses the same indication for hover and focus, so it
is possible for two items to be highlighted at the same time. Using
different styling would improve the situation, but only to some
extent - the user would still need to figure out which highlight
corresponds to which activation method. So instead, copy the
approach we use in popup menus and use a single property for
highlights that is updated by both focus- and hover changes.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=772284
It is possible to use the scroll wheel to adjust the volume without
opening the system menu, but there is no feedback other than the
icon itself in that case. To provide a less coarse indication for
the volume level, display the OSD window when adjusting the volume
while the slider isn't visible.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781028
Since commit 2c070d38, we add a ClickAction to the visible AltSwitcher
button to track long-presses. As a result, we now have two components
that will grab and ungrab the pointer for the button, so to make sure
we don't end up with a stuck grab, we need to release the second's
component grab when the first activates.
Currently we only drop the StButton grab on long-press, we also need
to cancel any initiated long-press on click.

If the user fails to enter their password then hits escape, we

We currently assume that window state changes are accompanied by an
allocation change (triggered for example by the minimize animation).
However this misses the case where a window actor is simply hidden
without any transition, as is the case with the 'show-desktop' action
for instance, so start tracking plain visibility changes as well.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=783975
While the string returned by formatTime() should follow the locale's
text direction as a whole, the actual time part is always expected
to put hours on the left and minutes to the right. It is possible to
enforce that by inserting a left-to-right mark, but so far this is
only done by the Hebrew translation. So in order to not require all
other RTL translations to be fixed individually, just insert the
mark into the returned string ourselves like gnome-desktop's WallClock
code does[0].
