--when the user requests a specific layout in Multiple
Layout mode the new approach is the following. If
the layout has assigned activities this is respected
but if its activities are empty that layout is assigned
only on the current activity and any other layouts assigned
explicitly to that activity are released
--the controller does not need to host its own
CentralLayouts any more. It retrieves original
data for Synchronizer, updates layouts accordingly
and sends back to Synchronizer all the updated
layouts data
--Move in a simpler layouts approach.
--Single Layout mode loads ONLY ONE Layout for ALL Activities
--Multiple Layouts mode loads any combination of Layouts based
on the following settings:
-- OnAllActivities
-- ForFreeActivities
-- SpecificActivities
--create an abstract implementation for subcontainments
such as systrays and group applet in order to use
the same infrastructure for all storage operations
such as Multiple Layouts loading, copying views,
providing important information etc.
BUG:418642
--this class will be the replacement for layout::storage
and will be responsible for any containment actions for
all layouts either loaded or offloaded. Through this
refactor loading and checking CentralLayouts should become
lighter and also memory efficient
--all storage functions are now taking place into
the same Latte TMP directory that is introduced
for layouts. So no more .bak files are needed from
~/.config folder.
--implement things simpler by using the same
CoreTypes header file both for LatteCore.Types
import statement and App c++ implementation.
Let's leave in the future to decide if
a LibLatte is really necessary.
--use a more logical organization for types. LibLatte2
is split to become LatteCore library and Latte types
are now moved to application level. The Latte Types will
be split even more... Tasks-Only related types will
become Latte.Tasks types
BUG:420210
--the new infrastructure can remember settings between
CustomBackgroundStyle and ColorStyle in order to
help the user to not have to reassign values
when changing backgrounds, between predefined
colors style and custom one.
