--the background contrast effect should be applied
only when the dock/panel is visually solid otherwise
it may block the transparency settings
BUG: 397431
FIXED-IN: v0.8.1
--removing the option to check blurring
based on whether a panel is solid or not
and also check !compositing. Blurring doesnt
make any sense at !compositing environments
BUG: 396955
FIXED-IN: 0.8.1
--when a dock was changing location and kwin
effects where enabled then a crash was appearing
under wayland. So we block drawing effects when
a dock is inTempHiding or inForceHiding
--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
--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.
--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.
--consider reverse Lines and show glow case in order
to add this in the thickness calculations
--consider the applets shadows when shrink thickness
is enabled
the dynamic background feature is enhanced and
becomes smarter. It understands snapped windows, windows
that touch the panel edge etc. The criteria in
order for the background to become solid are:
- any active window that is touching the panel
edge (that includes krunner)
- any inactive window that is snapped and touches
the panel edge (concerning its geometry: quarter-snapped or half-snapped)
- maximized windows
- an inactive window but keepAbove is touching
the panel edge (this catches also the yakuake case)
- panel popups
