--when back/forward media buttons in previews
where disabled and the mouse was hovering them
then the preview was hiding itself and the
previews experience was broken.
--dropped paths/urls on launchers of Global or
Layout launchers group did not open because the
synced infrastructure was breaking the QJsonArray
in that case.
FIXED-IN: 0.8.2
--when the user was hovering the preview player
buttons the preview was hiding itself. This patch
fixes the situation in order to identify properly
that the mouse is still in the preview in such
case.
BUG: 398962
FIXED-IN: 0.8.2
-- there are cases that hiding previews too early
can create crashes under wayland. Such a case is
when the user uses the touchpad to emulate a right-click
event to create a context menu for specific task
BUG: 397635
FIXED-IN: 0.8.1
make sure that we delete a valid contextMenu and
not a ghost reference. This could occur from
two-fingers emulating right-click in wayland.

FIXED-IN: 0.8.1
--previews showed some strange behavior by
re-introducing faulty or empty previews under
X11. Best way to approach this is to follow up
plasma design idea in order for the code to be
comparable. The code was updated and the introduced
issue shows to be fixed but this wants users
feedback.

FIXED-IN: 0.8.1
--with this commit now Latte is able to identify what are
the global shortcuts used for each activation entry and
also to not show at all any badge for activation entries
that are disabled from the user
BUG: 397128
-- touchpads and fast wheel scrolling for
tasks was creating an unpredicted effect
from user point view. The solution was
already tested from audio badges, applets
wheel activation but hadnt got into
for Tasks.
BUG: 396737
FIXED-IN: 0.8.1
--in plasma 5.13 there are cases the libtaskmanager
shows two launchers because we delay the launcher
removal for the bouncing animation. A way
to fix this by the user is to disable all startups
through plasma systemsettings->launch feedback
for the taskmanager. But because this is a
default plasma option many users would feel
uncomfortable when the launching animation
breaks. Such apps were gimp and inkscape.
This patch handles that case in order to provide
a nice no-breaking launcher animation for
these apps also.
--this is the first beta release for
v0.8. Everything will be open for the
upcoming days including translation
strings improvements. Beta2 possibly
will introduce a string freeze.
Clicking a task group shows a tooltip with list of tasks. This tooltip
cannot be controlled by keyboard and it will stay open unless mouse is
used.
This patch changes the behavior so that when a global shortcut activates
a task group (usually Win+1, Win+2 etc.) a next task in the group is
activated without showing a tooltip.
During dock sliding-in because the parabolic
effect isnt trigerred immediately but we wait
first the dock to go to its final normal
place we might miss the activation of the
parabolic effect. By catching that signal
we are trying to solve this.
-- disable the use of PlasmaCore.WindowThumbnail
under Wayland in order to fix a crash that was
appearing after a while when the user was using
previews
BUG: 392865
-- when removing a task and there are surrounding
separators then the hidden spacers are updated
immediately for the neighbour tasks. In such case
in order to not break the removal animation a small
margin must applied.
--the old architecture that was trying to keep
an internal separators record couldnt catch up
and at the same time could create issues with
internal separators at different activities.
--when only launchers are shown and the user
has chosen to disable any active indicator
then the plasmoid should behave only as
a smart launchers list with no window
capabilities
--always delete a previous timer for checking
preview showing before creating a new one
--always make sure the before showing a preview
the dock isnt hidden
--animate tasks hidden spacers properly
when a task is inAttention and the user
enters the mouse at first time when the task
isnt zoomed
--improve tasks hidden spacers animated
behaviors
--improve applets hidden spacers animated
behaviors
--when the plasmoid is hovered when the
applets hoveredIndex should be initialized
and when an applet is hovered then the plamoids
hoveredIndex should be initialized to -1.
--the directRenderDelayer is used during first
entering in order to delay the activation of
directRendering. The cons of previous fastEntering
implementation added the necessity for this
replacement.
--previously directRender was activating also when
from the first entered element the mouse moved fast
enough to the second element. But this could happen
also accidentaly some times. This improvements indicates
also the mouse position in the second element to be
near the center of that element
--in some cases after activity changes some tasks
are shown empty because some ghost tasks are created.
This was tracked down to hidden TaskDelegates spacers.
--libtaskmanager sometimes adds items and
hasnt set its full settings. After the addition
it updates some of the settings. This fix
is trying to fix that circumstances by not having
any blocking warnings
--window previews were lowered in order to touch
the task for which are presenting issues. This way
the mouse confirms alway the taskContainsMouse flag
--title tooltips are shown only when the dock has
ended its sliding-in animations
--issue #852, when directRendering is activated
some of the tasks could be in restoreAnimation,
in such case they stop their animation are moved
to directRendering mode
--issue #852, improve how the two states of zoom-in
and directRendering are indetified and triggered.
The initialization of hovering indexes now is
trigerred only for window mouse out events.
--in order to go faster to directRenderMode in some
cases, the following criteria was added. If the zoomScale
of a task is greater than 1 and the mouse enters that task
then directRendering is enabled.
-- when a task that wasnt launcher was inAttention
state and was bouncing and the user was clicking it,
the animation wasnt that clear at its middle, there
was a small breakage.
--there were cases that window previews/tasks context menu/
title tooltips were shown at the same time. This patch fixes this
by adding timers to catch these case and show the above on
priority. The priority used is tasks context menu/window
previews/title tooltips
--the internal separators should be able to positioned
always perfect comparing to the other launchers around them.
Only way this could be achieved is by giving them the
possibility to be applied to specific Activities...
For the user to assign internal separators to specific
Activities should right click them in editMode...
--the inAttention animation is being played by a
separate Loader, with this patch we hide the underground
original indicator in case it creates a visual
breakage in some cases
--in the initial design there was only a line for the
active task and the user could choose if wants to show
a second dot to indicate that this is a group of windows.
This behavior was updated in order to take into account
if the user has chosen to show only dots even for the
active task.
--when there were many internal separators in the row
and the user was dragging a task the internal separators
indexes afterwards were broken. This fixes this by
forcing the separators to update their indexes after
the user finishes dragging.
--the user now can add an internal separator and set
its position also by taking into account in which task
the context menu is shown
--the user now can remove any internal separator wants to
by showing its context menu options in editMode
--hide internal separators when overlap and show
only one
--hide internal separators at start or end of the
plasmoid, the user can us separator applet in those
places
--add safety array checkes in order to avoid any
crashes from accessing out-of-arrays elements
--the internalSeparatorPos approach was removed
from the plasmoid. The next steps are:
1. ParabolicManagers to update their logic in order
to take into account multiple internal separators
2. To hide all consequent separators either as applets
all internal separators
--make the single separator old architecture to
work correctly with the new multiple internal
separators architecture. Many things need to be
updated in order for this to work but lets make
one step at a time.
--following issue from #730 more qml code
was found that wasnt releasing connect signals
properly. That could create crashes because
already deleted qml objects could receive such
signals. That was observed after qt>=5.9.2
--trying to show all tasks in all states directly
when the environment is in !compositing
--block all animations (removals/showings) when
the environment is in !compositing
--add more animation phases in order to provide
a better experience for the inAttention bouncing
animation
--add visual debuggers for the spacers and padders
needed for the bouncing animation
--move the release of signals manual bindings for
tasks delegates from onRemove event of the delegate
at Component.onDestruction. The crash was happening
when the code path(onRemove event) wasnt occuring,
so the bindings werent released.
--a faulty check was using backgroundColor instead of
textColor for badges shown from global shortcuts indicators
--improve badges to understand the new url form of
plasma 5.11 launchers
--during assigning activities for a launcher
a window that had a launcher for the active
activity maybe doesnt have any more when it is removed.
in this cases the removal animation should be
played
--when two or more consequently launchers were bouncing
their animation was broken because they were changing
places. This patch catches these cases and provides
a proper way to show these animations.
--when a launcher belonged at all activities and
the user was pinning at an another explicit activity
that wasnt the current one the removal animation
wasnt played correctly
--enable task margins for neighbour separator
when the internal separator is hidden but there
is an applet separator at the edges and the task
is found two steps far from the edge e.g.
pos=1 or pos=tasksCount-2
--The internal separator can be hidden when it is
found at the edges of Tasks Plasmoid, it creates a
more pleasant result. If the user wants separators at
the edges can always use the Separator plasmoid from
audoban. This fix would fix also the overlap
of internal sepator with external applet separator.
--during removing a TaskDelegate the window is destroyed
in some cases and the icon provided by libtaskmanager
is a unknown pixmap. In such cases we should paint the
last valid one. That way it is always painted the correct
svg file even when removing a window that doesnt have
a launcher and the libtaskmanager provides an unknown
pixmap for it
--the user can add a previewsDelay value in ms in the
latte plasmoid General settings which can be found
in a layout file in order to change the delay which
a preview is needed to be activated. Values lower
than 150ms are ignored because they break the previews
experience by providing faulty previews
--protect wheel actions in order to not trigger themselves
multiple times
--use a timer to achieve this goal in order to be able
to support also X11 systems that have previews enabled for
all windows (a behavior that normally breaks the isMinimized
state)
--when the dock is hidden or in animation no mouse
wheel actions are accepted
--laucher: only the up action is accepted in order to
activate that launcher
--window: up action shows the window, if it is shown
nothing happens,
down actions, minimizes the window, it is is already
minimized nothing happens
--group: up/down to cycle through the windows
--there was an old code path that wasnt using the
new way of publishing tasks geometries. That is that
normalize the values in order to be always valid and
in the screen boundaries
-- Magic Lamp effect doesnt like coordinates outside the screen and
width,heights of zero value... So we now normalize the geometries
sent in order to avoid such circumstances
--changed the design totally and use only signals
between plasmoid in order to update their models. This
way the launcherList from their tasksmodel should be
updated only on the initialization phase of the Latte
plasmoid. Afterwards signaling between them takes
place, in order to inform each other for adding,
removing launchers, moving them and assigning them
to activities
--this is only for the case that the launcher is called
through a shortcut. The dock mask in that case uses the
midThickness and for that the bouncing launcher must be reduced
--add functionality for layoutManager
--add widgets action and alternative layout action to
layoutManager
--remove more functionality that belongs to globalSettings
--when changing layouts/old sessions from the Latte Tasks
Context menu, Latte was crashing very often. Add the switching
code into a Timer to make its execution asynchronoushly
--as in an older commit has been documented the qml
function childAt doesnt work propery for our ListView,
there are cases that returns an empty/null child. For this
reason we have implemented our own childAtPos function in
order to immulate the save behavior. Unfortunately there
wasnt a check in it that the items checked based on their
geometry they were actually TaskDelegate's. This fix not
only fixes bug #574 but also should provide a cleaner dragging
behavior, at least for the dragging phase
--identify startups better in order to distinguish
them to those that belong to launcher and should be
shown immediately and those that dont belong in any
launcher and they shouldnt be shown
