--fix showing advanced settings window in order to update
the window geometry ONLY WHEN there are availableScreenGeometry
changes from Latte::View(s).
--As a side effect changing docks/panels location under wayland
when they have enabled their background blur has reduced crashes
during location changes.
--for floating views the hide timer can do
the trick about when to make the checks
that the view must become hidden. In floating
views should support different default and
current value because it should be greater
that the normal use cases.
--improve the new worksarounds in order to always
apply the activities that a view and its windows are
present when the workarounds were triggered from
kwin faulty behavior. The kwin faulty behavior is
that when any activity is paused then all Latte::Views
become hidden and lose their activities references.
The workarounds are timers that when they trace
a faulty visible state !visible are restoring the
normal behavior to views.
--trying an alternative approach concerning real floating
Views and screen edge triggering. In such case the user
has triggered to show a REAL FLOATING VIEW, it is considered
normal from user point of view for the view to remain shown
until there is windows changed state or the mouse has
escaped the View main window area
-- when the user hovers the screen edge there is a chance that
screenedgeghostwindow has become underneath the view. In such
case when the real floating window slides in the screenghostwindow
becomes unhovered faulty and it is destroyed afterwards. It is
much better if the screenedgeghostwindow in such case remains shown
until the mouse is not contained neither in the view or the screen
ghost window
-- expose screen edge ghost window thickness
--when the floating view is a real panel window and
slides out-in with real animation if the user keeps
its mouse on the screen edge the view can remain
shown without sliding out
--when dock settings window is shown it is good to
NOT overlap with plasma panels. Under X11 this is
possible because the real availableScreenGeometry
is exposed through QScreen.
--indicators are now tracked only based on their
installation path, that means that are updated
more precise when changes are applied and
at the same time views are recreated only when
the show the specific indicator that was changed
--improved settings for Floating windows in Behavior
tab and add a new option to hide ALL screen gaps meaning
both length screen and thickness screen gap when there
is a maximized window in the screen
BUG:415630
--following the new design applied first at
View:availableScreenRegionChangedFrom instead of different
View parts to trigger directly m_corona relevant signal,
all View parts are triggering the View relevant signal
and as such the can be disabled all together
easily.
--set a minimumLength in order to avoid the indicator
to become TOO SMALL and not noticable. The minimum
length has been set to be 25% of the screen edge length
that the view as attached.
--when as Always Visible view was unloaded from
a CentralLayout because its Activity was closing
it was creating a crash. This patch fixes the
situation by releasing sensitive view signals
earlier.
--when the application launcher is not a popup then
we do not have to wait for the dock show we can execute
the activation code immediately
--when Latte activates an entry can now understand
if a popup is going to be shown in order to delay
the execution. If a popup is NOT going to show either
for a latte task or an applet then the code is executed
immediately
BUG:415417
FIXED-IN:0.9.6
--all the qml handling code from globalshortcuts is
now moved to Latte::View::ContaimentInterface. This
way the code is cleaner and can be expanded easier.
--draggingStarted signals/slots were used in order
to handle the active window dragging from empty areas.
The new approach ungrabs the mouse properly through
View relevant function and at the same time sends a
QEvent::Leave event to inform applets that the mouse
has left the view. This is enough in order to remove
any older draggingStarted workarounds and hacks.
--the issue was pretty obvious when the user was
using a top view with thickness < 24px. and a
bottom view always visible. In that case the top
view struts on startup did not decrease below
at 24px.
BUG:410707
--when a vertical view is in busy state and is touching
also a horizontal view that is fully transparent in
SMART mode then the visual result is not that good.
In that case it is better to show the view background.
The horizontal view background in that case can provide
three different states:
a) if the panel style for popups is activated then the
horizontal view will follow the plasma original style
b) if NOT [a] and solid background for touching windows
is enabled then solid background will be offered
c) if NOT [a] and NOT [b] then the isBusy state
transparency will be offered
--trying to increase smartness for horizontal
and vertical views. In multiple layouts environment
a view can exist in cases that one or more of
the sided views that is touching it is NOT
transparent, it would be nice for those
cases the top or bottom view to LOSE also
its transparency in order to not look
inconsistent.
--when hide timer is set below 50ms. there are
cases that does not let the view to be shown after
a containmouse trigerring. By setting a minimum
value for the timer to 50ms this is fixed.
BUG:410370
--when KWin edges are used in a SharedLayout then the
all view Layout::isCurrent() function must be used
otherwise the layout is not identified properly as
current based on different layouts per activities
--in such case under x11, the winIds of the visible
Latte windows are changed and as such the windows
tracking mechanism becomes broken. The code introduced
tries to track the case the update the WM::ignoredWindows
properly
