--when an application launcher exists, Latte can show
a "Meta" badge for that applet instead of the global
shortcut action number. With this patch we take also
into account when the assigned application launcher is
in different dock/panel and show it accordingly
BUG: 396753
Summary:
In Latte global shortcuts is missing one record
for New Instance of ninth record

--v0.8 introduced unified global shortcuts for all
cases, that means that applets are also taken into
account for Latte activation/new instance global
shortcuts. A new parameter is introduced with
the patch at Latte global settings file called
"unifiedGlobalShortcuts", the user can set that
parameter to false before Latte startup in order
to use only global shortcuts relevant to the
Latte plasmoid.
--when changing Single mode to Multiple mode the latest
changes from user didnt get into because the kde cache
from KFileConfigPtr hadnt been updated yet. This
patch fixes this by using a temp file that contains
the layout in question.
--there were cases that during creating
or copying docks the applets ids were
created inconsistent by creating applets
with ids already reserved. This patch
fixes this by using the applet ids found
in the layout file and not the one loaded
in memory.
--a visual indicator in order to show which plasma
applets have been overloaded from Latte. The overloaded
mechanism is a way in order to make these applets work
properly with Latte parabolic effect
--blur effect is costly this way we limit effects area
to respect the windows boundaries and at cases that
the QRegion returns too main QRects to just use the main
effects rectangle
--this fix possibly fixes the crash related to Blur effect and
moving the dock to another edge bug:396040
--in plasma 5.13 there are cases the libtaskmanager
shows two launchers because we delay the launcher
removal for the bouncing animation. A way
to fix this by the user is to disable all startups
through plasma systemsettings->launch feedback
for the taskmanager. But because this is a
default plasma option many users would feel
uncomfortable when the launching animation
breaks. Such apps were gimp and inkscape.
This patch handles that case in order to provide
a nice no-breaking launcher animation for
these apps also.
--this is the first beta release for
v0.8. Everything will be open for the
upcoming days including translation
strings improvements. Beta2 possibly
will introduce a string freeze.
--v0.8 is officialy KDE project, so its
existence owes a lot of credits to many
KDE members (for translations, bug reporting
etc.). Being officially a KDE project
responds to the previous credits.
--when the dock was hidden and the user was triggering
the Meta shortcut the app launcher was misplaced.
By using the same technique used when triggering applets
shortcuts this is fixed.
Clicking a task group shows a tooltip with list of tasks. This tooltip
cannot be controlled by keyboard and it will stay open unless mouse is
used.
This patch changes the behavior so that when a global shortcut activates
a task group (usually Win+1, Win+2 etc.) a next task in the group is
activated without showing a tooltip.
