the dynamic background feature is enhanced and
becomes smarter. It understands snapped windows, windows
that touch the panel edge etc. The criteria in
order for the background to become solid are:
- any active window that is touching the panel
edge (that includes krunner)
- any inactive window that is snapped and touches
the panel edge (concerning its geometry: quarter-snapped or half-snapped)
- maximized windows
- an inactive window but keepAbove is touching
the panel edge (this catches also the yakuake case)
- panel popups
--move Active Applet Indicator to Appearance page
and make its layout more consistent with the rest
design
--move Glow options above the Applet Shadows that
may be used more rarely
--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.
--the panel opacity shouldnt be set in some
cases when the maximized states are used or
when the solid panel is enabled and no
maximized filters are used
--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
--this works similar with transparency with no-maximized
windows feature but on reverse. e.g. transparency for
non-maximized windows and solidness for maximized ones
--opacity to 1 when applet is active
--when the user uses a semi transparent panel for
un-maximized active windows and the user activates
a pop up for an applet a better visual effect is the
panel to not have any transparency
--improve translation strings and options order
--the Copy functionality creates broken config files. It
must be disabled!!! the applet ids are no longer updated
correctly from the importLayout function! This must be
fixed from our part!
--add functionality for layoutManager
--add widgets action and alternative layout action to
layoutManager
--remove more functionality that belongs to globalSettings
--improve the signaling between the configuration window
and the dockview concerning freeEdges for current screens
and docks count. Now the docks counting is different
between screens and in general
--this commit is the last for this to be supported.
It checks if the globalLauncherList is empty and in
such case when syncing is enabled the current dock
launchers are used
--all the functionality concerning the internal separator
is moved completely into the plasmoid. Now the add/remove
of the internal separator can be found through the Tasks
contextmenu as long as we are in editMode (that is showing
the configuration window)
--expose the functionality through the configuration
window. The user can choose no latte type internal
active applets indicators, only show to latte internal
applets and show at all applets
-- the user can choose this behavior from the Tweaks page,
the panel background in shown only when there is maximized
window and it is fully transparent otherwise
