--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
--this function creates irrelevant crashes even
under x11 environment... Dropped in favour of
show()/hide() functions that seem to not create
any issues
--fixes to signals in ViewParts in order to avoid
crashes. Currently the recreateView approach is used
in order to reload indicators runtime dynamically.
The "View::setSource" approach does not reload the
indicators properly
--View::WindowsTracker now provides all the time
information about CurrentScreen and AllScreens!
This way all consumers (Latte::Containment, Applets etc.)
can choose whatever suits them best.
--when dragging a new applet over the view
the responsiveness is now improved vastly
--the new architecture uses two different
DragAndDropAreas. One which is the old one
and is used when dragged launchers, urls and
separators. The second is used only when
applets are dragged into the view
--the visuals for adding launchers/applets have
been improved and a circular visual is preferred
now instead
--fix all events identifications from DragMove and
DragExit etc. in containment::qml part and all drags
flags are calculated only at DragEnter! This fixes
the DragMove signaling and all DragMove signals are
sent correctly.
It needs to be fixed also for Tasks plasmoid because
every time the mouse hovers the Tasks Plasmoid then
the DragMove signals are NOT SENT as they should.
--any view and view::containment() signals that
are related to layout are now moved in the
View::setLayout() in order to be reinitialized
properly when the view changes to another
layout
--this is side-way path for mouse events and
more specific the mouse pressed, released
events to be sent from parent window to its
qml containment part. This way it is possible
to keep the original plasma applet behavior
such as original plasma tooltips and provide
Latte specific functionality such as animated
clicks from indicators.
NOTE: An investigation - testing took place in
order to check if this approach could be also used
for mouseMove events to be used for applets parabolic
effect. The result was that this was not possible because
there were too many signals and too much calculations
too identify for which applet the signal belonged to.
The parabolic effect was not fluid in that case and
could not catch up.
--huge refactor in order to split the logic of the
Layout file. One of small steps in order to end at
the following logic:
AbstractLayout->GeneralLayout->InterfacedLayout
InterfacedLayout->NormalLayout
InterfacedLayout->OnTopLayout
PresentedLayout, that will contain references for
one ActiveLayout and one OnTopLayout and will
act as a class to provide useful information to
layoutManager and all other classes that want
to work with Views.
GeneralLayout will gain a storage object
for all STORAGE properties that require
a CORONA to work
--secondary config window now follows the primary
config window design. Config windows now are just
simple windows !AboveAll and are activated from
Latte::View on demand. This way we can now have
demonstration of the parabolic effect during
editMode at all times
-- for each layout only one dock should show its configuration windows
otherwise we could reach a point that because a settings window
is below another Latte View its options are not reachable
--now config windows are masked properly in order to
accessible to all of their areas. By design the config
windows are trying to be below the main view, this is
why masking is needed in order to work properly and not
having areas that can not be clicked/accessed because
of the top Latte View
--when the mouse enters the main latte view,
the primary and secondary config windows should
be activated. This patch improves how this is
handled in order to not mess up the focusOut
even handling from config windows. The config
windows do not race now in order to identify
if all the config windows has lost focus.
--meaning that edit Visual can contain more
elements than just the usual ones and as such
we can now add a "Rearrangement" option to make
things easier to switch between live/static editing
Summary:
--this way any part interested to know the
real type of Latte::View it can access the
all new type() property
Test Plan:
test view settings that indicate correctly
the panel/dock type
