--infrastructure is now ready to expose to
applets the full color paletter and not
make compromises by choosing only from
original plasma theme for some of the
exposed colors
--dont reverse colors for selection group.
It creates a much nicer effect from user point
of view to keep the highlighting colors the
same for both the normal and reversed plasma
themes.
--providesHoveredAnimation, in order to disable
the Latte one
--providesClickedAnimation, in order to disable
the Latte one
--needsMouseEventCoordinates, in order to know
when the mouse pressed e.g. creating animations
like the android way
--fix how applets are identifying their index when the
user switches alignments from Justify to Another and
vice versa. More specific this patch helps in order to
not break the parabolic effect between alignment changes.
--the Latte Settings window tries its best in order
to provide a nice experience concerning its width/height
ratio and a width size that is best for its contents.
There are cases that this fails so the user in the
best to set it right. Latte now provides two shortcuts
Meta+Scroll, that changes the width scale ratio and
Ctrl+Scroll, that changes the height scale ratio when
settings are in Basic mode.
The previous shortcuts must be applied when the mouse
is over the empty areas in the Settings View window.
--based on the current indicator there minimum
thickness and indicator padding can be altered.
Providing some visual feedback for the user to
understand these limits is a good practice.
--there is a combinantion of settings that enables
plasma original applet behavior.
1. the applet is locked and is not using parabolic effect
2. the zoomfactor === 1 and the user has not activated
title tooltips
Summary:
When iconSize is not big enough, center aligned shortcut badges look better than top-left aligned ones.
BUG: 406037
Test Plan:
- When iconSize < 48: shortcut badges are center aligned
- When iconSize >= 48: they are top-left aligned
For example, with iconSize = 32:

Differential Revision: https://phabricator.kde.org/D20128
--introduce a new class called level which contains
all the needed information concerning indicator level
and at the same time the bridge that provides information
for the specific indicator states
--try to improve experience for liveEditingMode and
inConfigureApplets. LiveEditingMode should be as much
as nearer to the standard experience and inConfigureApplets
state should provide nice coloring
--in order for all indicators infrastructure to
load the plugin correctly the configuration and
the component elements of ViewPart::Indicator
must be loaded first correctly and afterwards
the relevant Indicators to follow
