--the old architecture that was trying to keep
an internal separators record couldnt catch up
and at the same time could create issues with
internal separators at different activities.
-- under X11 it was identified that windows
many times especially under screen changes
dont end up at the correct position and size.
This vailidator(timer) will enforce repositionings
and resizes every 500ms if the window hasnt end up
to correct values and until this is achieved.
--because focus is lost from dock tooltips the
dock settings window was closing. We take into
account that case in order to not close the
dock settings window in such case
--different hardware can have different delays
in order to inform for screen changes. The tracker
(an internal timer that is) informs Latte after
a specific interval in order to track these changes
and respond accordingly.
--by default now Latte supports the KWin Edges mechanism,
this way the following issues are fixed:
fix#935, fix#721, fix#687, fix#512, fix#514
--improve dock behavior when the user user touch
gestures
--fix #144, support KWin bright placeholders
--this behavior can be disabled if the user prefers
the old one from the Tweaks page
--in !compositing no more is shown a 1px line at
the screen edge when the dock is hidden
--support KWin Edges in Multiple Layouts state under
X11
--recreateDock is used when the visibility mode
changes and as such the window must be recreated
in order to work correctly. Any remaining code
found for such function in corona and layoutManager
is removed.
--exhausted to discuss this so often so in the
end it may be my perspective wrong. Quit button
in dock settings window changed to Close button
and the Quit option moved to menu bar of the
general Latte settings window with shortcut
Ctrl+Q
-- changing name of layouts should have a visual
indicator and at the same time the Switch and
Remove buttons should update their states
properly. A Switch or Remove action shouldnt
be allowed after a layout rename until the user
has confirmed the new name for the layout.
--the check in order to identify if a maximized window
overlaps with the dock wasnt always been executed. That
was the case for multi-screens environments.
--this also fixes#908. Everything was ok except from
the fact that in Single layout mode the needed
lastUsedActivity variable was empty and thus it couldnt
be tracked to update the needed wallpaper correctly.
--when the user changes wallpaper there is a chance
that the lastScreen has the same value with the old
one. In such case the wallpaper must be updated.
--enhanche the dynamic background feature and
in ordre to improve contrast with the underlying
background Latte now calculates the luminosity of the area
underneath the panel and based on that chooses the
best color to create contrast. The colors are chosen
only between textColor and backgroundColor.
--the GhostWindow which is used for AlwaysVisible mode
under wayland during startup there was cases that its
geometry was exceeding the maximumGeometry sent.
BUG: 390017
--the wayland interface couldnt orchestrate correctly
with the corona and the application exit. The whole
architecture changed and the window manager now is
provided by corona and corona is also responsible to
keep only one instance of it and close on exit.
--remove the Plasma Label that was used to set
the Latte trademark based on Tangerine font that
was distributed from app source code
--remove the Tangarine font from source code
--this gives the time for docks to close and also
to not create any rare crashes because qml settings
window calls this code path from its Quit button.
--use internal edit mode to wm's visibilitymanager.
More specific use it in AlwaysVisible mode in order
to not publish the new struts because the animations
have ended.
--ghost containments such as when a user
deletes a dock without notification confirmation
can be removed afterwards when that layout is
loading either at Single or Multiple mode.
--this way the Layouts menu in now accesible
even from plasma taskmanagers. The codebase is also
the same for every component that is showing its
menus.
