Users don't expect the bullets they just typed into an entry
field to disappear as soon as they hit enter.
Instead, they want the dialog to become insensitive during the
authentication process, so that it's clear that what they typed

While the ability to show the password can be useful at times,
the existing implementation is problematic:
1) The use of a switch is wrong (as even noted in a code
comment).
2) It is inconsistent with any other password dialog (login screen,
polkit).
In lack of a properly designed solution (for all password dialogs),
the designers agreed to remove the switch for now.

The previous wrapping code hardcoded a width in pixels, making it
non-text-zoom-friendly. Specify a CSS width in pts, and fix the

Simplify the layout in rightBox by getting rid of statusBox, and just
putting everything into rightBox directly.
Simplify the handling of the user menu by adding it like it was a
status icon rather than special-casing it. Rename the "tray_icon"

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=651299
Legacy trayicons are mostly gone, so remove some of the special-casing
for them to simplify things.
Also, fix panel.addToStatusArea() to interpret its "position" relative

depend on the order they are loaded in.

The underline highlights on the panel menu items normally have a 100ms
transition between highlighted and unhighlighted, but the panel corner
graphics can't do that, so we hacked the Activities button and user

rightmost item any more. Fix this by modifying the CSS from the code
instead.

The current user status menu allow to set the session status,
which also influences the IM status when signed in with

The theme currently hard codes the minimum size of the calendar
menu to make sure there's a designated area for events
(even if there isn't anything currently scheduled).
A side-effect of the hard coded minimum width is that
if the events area is hidden, the menu ends up much
bigger than the calendar. We don't currently ever hide
the events area, but we will in the future.
This commit moves the min-width restriction from the menu
specifically to the events area.

With the old pre-boxpointer summary notifications, it sort of made
sense that the summary notification actor was a child of the message
tray. But there's no reason for that now, and in fact, it ends up
requiring special cases in some places since hovering over the summary
notification counts as hovering over the tray. So, fix this.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=655813
The buttons should have a glassy transparent look. Also, they should not
be as tall, should light up on hover, and their labels should be white
in order to stand out. Making the labels solid white requires removing the
transparency set in modalDialog.js. Also, add a separate color setting
for the dialog as a whole - this avoids having a white icon.

The specs call for a 2 pixel gap between the panel and its menus,
though we need to specify this as 4 pixels, since it's relative to the
bottom of the icon/title, not the bottom of the panel (up until now,
the point of the menu arrow was actually overlapping the menu's
highlight underline).
Also, move the gap specification into the CSS, since it makes more
sense there.

Make menu popups fully match the mockups by changing the stroke

The fact that everything in the top bar except the activities button

AutorunManager is a class that takes care of displaying and managing

When a mount appears and a number of conditions are satisified, a
transient notification will be displayed to immediately interact with

Likewise, current mounts are kept in a list and presented within a

Theme authors now have the power (and responsibility) of creating fade

Specifying absolute pixel widths for fields breaks under both font
scaling and translation.
Change all px lengths in the calendar to corresponding pt values, to
fix the layout under larger/smaller font sizes.
Change all "width" specifications to "min-width", for languages with
longer translations. This completely breaks the layout if any field
exceeds the min-width of its column, but that is preferable to
ellipsizing. Needs to be redone using St.Table or the like for 3.0.1.
Also add padding to the right of the calendar popup to match the
padding on the left, since the lack of it becomes more obvious in
layouts where the actual width exceeds the minimum width.

In the mockups the slider does not have an uniform color but uses

Commit 9a048af1f changed the panel border to be drawn below the

panel border. As it looks cleaner to leave the border in place,
clip the icon to the panel border.
In the mockups the bottom border of active panel buttons is drawn
on top of the panel's border. To get this effect, move the panel
border into the background, so that it is not subtracted from the
vertical space given to the buttons. Adjust the drawing of the rounded
corners to reflect that change.

A PolicyKit Authentication Agent is a construct used to authenticate
one or more identities. See the PolicyKit documentation for more
details on authentication agents and how PolicyKit works:
http://hal.freedesktop.org/docs/polkit/
Since gjs does not support subclassing a GObject class from Javascript
code, we bring in a native class to bridge the VFuncs to GObject
signals. Additionally, this native class also queues up authentication
requests so the user of the native class only has to deal with a
single outstanding request at any one time.
The file js/ui/polkitAuthenticationAgent.js introduces a singleton
that listens for authentication requests via the native class. This
singleton uses the PolkitAgent machinery to do the actual heavy-weight
lifting required for authentication (essentially a PAM conversation).
We currently don't allow the user to pick the identity to be
authenticated.

Make the right padding bigger and the left padding smaller, so that the
boundaries that trigger the accordion effect are more closely associated
with corresponding icons. Also slightly decrease the overall padding between
sources.
So far transitions do not work for the custom drawn corners, so to
avoid a visible glitch when transitioning a button in the panel corner
while updating the style of the apparently attached corner instantly,
remove transition of those panel buttons until we make it work for the
custom drawn parts as well.

Current mockups show the panel curving downwards at the edges to
frame the work area and look awesome. Implement those as separate
actors to not affect the struts set by the panel, and synchronize
their state with the corresponding panel buttons so they blend in
with the panel. It might be worth considering whether the corners
should be hidden with maximized windows on the current workspace,
though this might affect the illusion of them being part of the
panel. As the corners don't affect the input region, the small
overlap with windows might not be too bad after all.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=642697
The groups at the panel sides use different left/right padding, so
a slightly different CSS is required for RTL locales. Add :rtl
pseudo classes as necessary and adjust the CSS.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=642697
We now use a border image on active panel buttons to underline the
button's content. As the property does not affect the content's
allocation, the app icon ends up being drawn on top of the border
image. To prevent this, use a custom property to clip the bottom of
the app icon when the button is active.

When we animating the scale for the thumbnails, the border and
background should wrap around the current size of the thumbails.
The technique that we are using to animate the scale breaks that
since we don't animate the overall size of the thumbnails box -
we just animate our child actors within the allocation.
To fix this, switch from drawing the background by packing in another
container to drawing the background with a separate actor that
is under the other actors and allocated by our custom logic.

GenericDisplay used to provide a common base class for places and
recent items, none of which exists anymore. As of current mockups,
display items in "Finding and Reminding" should be based on
BaseIcon / IconGrid instead.
Now that we have a modalDialog base class in gnome-shell,
it makes sense to use it for the run dialog.
Note, the run dialog doesn't currently have buttons, so
it isn't exercising all the API of the base class.

Add the view selector and adjust the positioning of elements in the
overview. Unlike the old dash, the view selector is made public to
indicate that extensions may add additional views or search providers.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
As workspaces will appear as a particular view in the view selector,
merge WorkspacesControls and WorkspacesManager to control workspaces

Also update the style to fit into the view selector.

The view selector is a tabbed interface with a search entry. Starting
a search switches focus to the results' tab, ending a search moves the
focus back to the previously selected tab. Activating a normal tab
while a search is active cancels the search.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
With the new layout, search results will be displayed in an independent
view like window previews, applications and possible future additions;
it does not make much sense keeping it with the switching logic, so move
the code to its own file.
Also remove the dash-prefix from the relevant style classes.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
The new dash implementation is a single-column vertical sidebar,
whose items are scaled dynamically to fit the available height.
If the height is still exceeded after scaling down to a minimum

its code will be used as a base for the new view selector element.

Overlaying inactive workspaces with a gradient to fade out the actors
does no longer work when re-using the normal desktop background. If

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
While scaling the desktop background with the window previews represents
workspaces quite intuitively, the approach is not without problems.
As window previews in the overview behave quite differently to "real"
windows, the representation of workspaces as miniature versions of
"real" workspaces is flawed. The scaling also makes the transitions
to and from the overview much more visually expensive, without adding
much benefit.
Leaving the background in place provides more visual stability to the
transitions and emphasizes the distinctive behavior of elements in the
overview.

The layout of recent mockups occupies the space previously reserved
for the info bar with the view selector. As the bar's purpose is
mainly to provide the user with feedback, it makes sense to use the
existing message tray facility instead of moving the bar elsewhere.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
The scrollbar is the main culprit for cluttered controls in the
linear view - all its functionality is already provided by the
workspace indicators, so it is save to remove the scrollbar in
order to clean up the interface.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634948
When the last message is older than SCROLLBACK_IMMEDIATE_TIME (1
minutes), show a timestamp in the middle, indicating the time it
was sent.
Use the same style for presence changes, but show them on the left.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617228
Switch from St.TextureCache.load_named_icon() to using St.Icon for named
icons. Along with the advantage of getting colorization right for symbolic
icons, this allows moving some icon sizes into the CSS.
In the CSS, the system status icon size is changed to be 1em (=16px for the
default font size), at the request of the artists. See bug 613448.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=633865
Adding a "PopupMenuRadioButtonItem" wouldn't work well, because we'll
need radio-button indicators on multiple different styles of menu
item. Also, the current design draws the indicator in the menu item's
padding, so it's sort of special anyway. So just add support at the
BaseMenuItem level.
Also, redo the menu/menuitem padding so that all the horizontal
padding is in the menu item, or else the indicator dot will show up in
the wrong spot.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=631193
When there are menu items with right-aligned items, all the
right-aligned items should appear to the right of all the left-aligned
items.
Clutter doesn't have an equivalent of GtkSizeGroup, so hack something up
using ShellGenericContainer and some javascript.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=631193
Shell implemented indicators got padding from default button style,
and also spacing from their container, so too much space was left
between them. This only became apparent when more than one was
implemented, though.
Redo the way that the summary item expand/collapse animation works so
that the items all resize in unison so that when moving from one to
another, the summary area as a whole stays a constant width rather
than wobbling slightly.
(Also rename all references to the "minimum" summary item title width,
since it's not a minimum, it's just the width.)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=630546
Introduce Cairo-drawn sliders to be used in PopupMenus (for example for
volume). They are stylable to some extent (colors, border width, slider
height) and have the standard behaviour of a slider, except they are
completely modal (once you start dragging, all events are intercepted by
the slider, which thus is kept active and highlighted at all times).
They show numeric values between 0 and 1 (scaling must be performed outside)
and emit value-changed on button release, but no activate, keeping the
menu open.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=625029
All mockups now use a representation for documents/places similar to
the one used for applications. Rename AppIcon to BaseIcon and move its
code together with WellGrid out of appDisplay to stress their general
usefulness.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=625887
Extend WellGrid with an optional rowLimit parameter and an accessor
function for the grid's items, then use it to replace the custom
container used to display the application search results.
Also adjust the spacing of the search results slightly to make it
consistent with the app well.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=622446
This patch ensures the following notifications behavior:
- Urgent notifications that have long title or banner text are auto-expanded
correctly.
- Single-line notifications that have _expandNotification() called (e.g.
because the user mouses over to them), are treated as expanded, which means
they get fully expanded if they are updated with more content and the user
can escape them.
- The position of expanded notifications is updated when they are updated.
- Notification banner is shown again on the first line if it can fully fit
there after a notification is updated, even if it was previously hidden
because the notification was expanded and the old banner did not fully fit.
- New notifications are immediately hidden if the user mouses away from them.
- If a new notification is updated while it is shown, we extend the time it
will be shown.
- If a new notification is updated while it is hiding, we stop hiding it and
show it again.
- If a summary notification is updated while it is hiding, we let it finish
hiding and show a new notification with the updated information.
Implementation details:
- Single-line notifications now have 4px bottom padding instead of 8px, which
means that their height matches the tray height, they are fully shown in the
banner mode, and don't pop out by 4px when the notification is expanded.
- Notification keeps a flag that indicates whether it is expanded, updates
its expanded look when it is updated, and emits an 'expanded' signal
indicating that its layout has possibly changed. The message tray connects
to this 'expanded' signal when it is showing a notification in the expanded
state and updates the position of the notification accordingly when this
signal is received so that the notification is fully shown. This is better
than connecting to 'notify::height' signal on the notification bin, since
it results in fewer callbacks.

The space between the rightmost item and the edge of the screen should
be considered part of the rightmost item, and the space between items
should be considered part of the adjacent items, to prevent excess
jitter when moving between them.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=626112
Adds class PopupSwitchMenuItem, which is a two-state switch similar
to those in system status indicators mockups. Also adds class Switch,
which represents the switch itself, in case it is useful somewhere
else.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621880
The following changes make message tray look more polished:
- all notifications are now same width (no min and max width)
- there is an equal padding all around the notification (which resulted in
the increased tray height)
- action buttons are now nicely styled
- chat text box glows when focused (nevermind the unfocused look because
we'll soon always have it focused when it is showing)
- chat text has padding on the left and rounded background
- summary source buttons no longer have a border
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=624584
"text-align" allows setting the alignment of text, with respect to
other lines and allocated space, without requiring a reference to
the ClutterText (which is private for most widgets).
If not specified, all text is left-aligned.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=622447
This is part of the design update for the message tray.
Source now takes an extra argument called 'title'.
All expanded message tray items are same width, which is determined by
the width of the item with the longest title, up to MAX_SOURCE_TITLE_WIDTH.
This is done so that items don't move around too much when one is expanded
and another one is collapsed.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617224
The shell design says that upon launching an application,
no X window should have focus, and we should display an
animated launching indicator.
Implement this by in panel.js, keep track of the last started
application. If there isn't currently an X focus, show an animation
for the last starting application.

Currently the workspaceSwitcher does not take the screen size into account
which could result into overflowing the screen.
Fix that but using Shell.GenericContainer instead of St.BoxLayout which takes
the monitor size into account when allocating.

Currently, the buttons change their background immediately when
activated, while the menus fade in quickly - instead, make buttons
use the same effect as the menus.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619240
Separate out the main app view into different sections based on the categories
in the desktop file. The configuration is done via gmenu and the desktop menu
specification, we set XDG_MENU_PREFIX="gs-" on startup, so that gmenu reads
gs-applications.menu, which we install.
There is no support for "submenus" - only the menus directly under
Applications will be displayed as categories.

This patch adds ISO week dates to the calendar. Week dates are an
often used feature in business and government offices. Can be turned
on through gconf, off by default.

* Align the icons inside text
* Add application name to Quit
* Fade in/out the menu
* Drop some padding around the edges
* Add padding around the separators
* Use a gradient for separators
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618460
Adds the ability to create one or more zoom regions that show magnified or
enhanced views of the desktop. The magnifier provides options for:
* magnification factor,
* four mouse tracking modes common to screen magnifiers,
* positioning the magnified view in one of four screen location, or full screen,
* crosshairs to accentuate the position of the mouse,
* user preferences persistence via GConf (schemas in
.../data/gnome-shell.schemas).
* a DBus API to allow other processes to drive the magnifier as a service.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=595507
Change the style rules so that the style for places and recent
items matches the style for applications in a couple of aspects:
* Use a gradient on hover
* Use consistent padding and spacing
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=610393
This line just looks poor - it's probably a leftover from when the
panel was a gradient. We didn't quite see it before because of
a different bug where we were over-allocating the panel to 27
pixels.
Also reorganizes the notification layout to use an StScrollView; very
tall notifications are now scrolled instead of just taking up more and
more of the screen.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=608999
Also, remove a lot of cruft from genericDisplay.js leftover from
previous St-ifications, and remove the pre-gtk-2.16 hacks from the
status tray in panel.js (which are much less needed with the
nearly-all-black panel anyway).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=614516
The actual changes to shell-menu.[ch] are pretty minimal; most of the
changes there are just style/spacing/indentation.
Also, removed shell_menu_append_separator() since it wasn't needed;
the separators would already have been behaving as intended just
because they were non-reactive.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=614516
Moving to St.Table introduced a regression that resulted in the height
of Places section to only depend on the height of the left column.
This could result into some bookmarks not being displayed at all because
there are not enough items in the left column to allocate the needed height.
Fix this by removing the St.BoxLayout actors and add the items directly to
the table.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=614144
Add a border to items which highlights on hover, just like the style
of (non-running) app-well items. For removable items in the places
section, this has the additional benefit of making clear to which
item the unmount button belongs.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=610385
While most of the code already is CSS stylable, the two-colum setup
is still done using Big.Box with hard coded spacings. Port those
remaining parts to St.Widget, so that all spacings can be adjusted
by the theme.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=610385
The POPUP_LIST_SPACING constant was used for the AltTabPopup.actor's padding,
AltTabPopup.actor's spacing and SwitcherList._list's spacing.
Switch to CSS and remove the constant.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=613195
DND from the places section broke with 1c4c3afb when St.Label was
replaced with St.Button.
To fix, replace St.Button with St.Clickable and use a fake_release
when starting a drag.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609218
Now that we don't use pure black for the overview background
there is less incentive to soften or differentiate the top
bar using a gradient. Without a gradient it blends better
with screen bezels and reinforces the idea of being negative space.
Instead of setting a fixed size in the CSS which only works well
with a limited range of screen resolutions, assign a relative
size in the code.
While this takes away some flexibility from theme authors, it is in
line with most elements in the overview (workspaces area, dash).
Also expose the menu panes vertical alignment, so that more-apps aligns
to the workspaces area's top and more-docs to the bottom.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=610872
Limit the AppSwitcher to the screen size by either downscaling or
scrolling.
We scale the icons down up from 96, 64, 48, 32 to 22 and start scrolling
if we still fail to fit on screen.
The thumbnail box is shifted to either left or right, when failing to
fit we scroll here to.
To prevent from being offscreen at the buttom we adjust the thumbnail
height to fit.
The old positioning logic is replaced with a ShellGenericContainer to
implement a custom allocation system.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=597983
Rename WorkspacesViewSwitch to WorkspacesControls and let it manage
all workspace controls. Do not destroy and recreate the controls bar
actor on each view change, but add it to the overview once and let it
update itself.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=610189
Switch to using an application icon as per design.
We need to drop the 4 pixels padding to ensure we fit 3 icons.
There was a typo where getVisibleCount should have been getVisibleResultsCount.

Add a 'vshadow' property to StScrollView, which, when turned on,
overlays gradient shadows on the top and bottom of the StScrollView.
Turn this on for the StScrollView used for the app browser.

By default buttons fade from the hover to the normal state, by animating
the opacity of a copy of the previous border-image. This works as
expected for opaque and fully transparent pixels, but results in a
flickering effect for others.
Making StButton's fade effect work with partly transparent pixels is
hard, not using images with transparency is easy ...

Matching the 20091114 mockup, the default workspace view
is now a scrollable horizontal list, with a control to
switch between this and the previous grid view.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=593844
This bug happened because the thumbnail box was only maxed, not set to 256x256.
Standard window thumbnails would max out only the width to 256. Having a window with
its height greater than its width meant that the height would max out, but not the
width, causing thumbnails to look uneven.

The high level goal is to separate the concern of searching for
things with display of those things; for example in newer mockups,
applications are displayed exactly the same as they look in the
AppWell.
Another goal was optimizing for speed; for example,
application search was pushed mostly down into C, and we avoid
lowercasing and normalizing every item over and over.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=603523
The altTab.js and app well code weren't sharing really
any functionality anymore; un-merge the appIcon code back

Mostly a straightforward porting of style code to CSS, except
that various bits of other code referenced a few GenericDisplay

Make the calendar reactive and handle scroll events to change the month.
(GtkCalendar and hence the old gnome-panel calendar supported this and
it is apparently a handy way to flip through months.)
The padding is moved from the CalenderPopup to the Calendar so that the

The current CSS3 border-image is close to a superset of what we were
doing for -hippo-background-image. Woot! rename StThemeImage to
StBorderImage and change parsing to look for:
border-image: <url> <number>...

-st-background-image: <url> <length>...
percentanges for the border sizes are not currently supported, neither
are the keywords for handling of the middle part. We always do 'stretch'
for now.

ShellTheme replaces both StStyle and ccss_stylesheet_t.
The interface StStylable is replaced by usage of ShellThemeNode.
A concrete node class allows some significant optimizations of property
inheritance that would have been much more difficult to achieve with
the highly abstract pair of StStylable and ccss_node_t.
Some operations that were previously on StStylable (like the
::style-changed signal) are directly on NtkWidget.
Custom properties are no longer registered as param-specs; instead you
call directly into shell theme node to look up a length or color:
shell_theme_node_get_length (theme_node, "border-spacing", FALSE, &spacing);
The dependency on libccss is dropped, while preserving all existing
functionality and adding proper parsing and inheritance of font properties
and proper inheritance for the 'color' property.
Some more javascript tests for CSS functionality are added; workarounds for
a CSS bug where *.some-class was needed instead of .some-class are removed.
