--allow the applet developers to set at their
applet main file:
property bool disableLatteParabolicIcon: true
in order to disable any Latte functionality
concerning the parabolic icon
-- allow the applet developers to set at their
main file:
property bool isInLatte: false
in order to be informed by Latte when they are
in a Latte containment. For what ever purposes
the developers need to adjust to their plasmoid.
--in Justify alignment fillWidth(s)/Height(s) applets
may exist. In such case the calculations for their values
should be activated because there is a chance that the
panel contents would go out of bounds and out of
screen. This way we make sure that all contents will be always
visible.
--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.
--following issue from #730 more qml code
was found that wasnt releasing connect signals
properly. That could create crashes because
already deleted qml objects could receive such
signals. That was observed after qt>=5.9.2
--improve more the parabolic animation and
fix an issue that was based on the time window
between smooth animation and directRender when
the mouse activates the parabolic effect in the
begin.
--we now support through our discovering mechanisms
a properly identification for kicker and simplemenu
applets. This way changing their icons work correctly
and of course the parabolic effect
--this fixes the Tasks plasmoid thickness and
improves a small breakage in the parabolic effect.
The Tasks thickness is going to maximum when there
is a hoveredInded in plasmoid or in containment.
--the previous fix, fixes also a small breakage in
the parabolic effect animation. The breakage was
appearing when going from
applet->applet separator->task and directRender is
enabled
--support properly applet separators. This is the
first part, in the future the margins for them
should be updated correctly and the edge cases,
for example when the applet separator is next to
tasks plasmoid
--this is finally used properly through the
ParabolicManagers new architecture. Any old
problems concerning applets that didnt clearing
their zoom should be fixed totally now!!
--all messages concerning parabolic effect are calculated
and send through the ParabolicManager. This will help
a lot in maintainance and in many cases in the future
such as, separators, hidden applets and clearing zoom
properly
-use the old code and add it in AppletIdentifier in order
to discover applets that provide IconItems and substitute
their panel behavior with Latte experience
--the internal separator codebase has been simplified
a lot and uses a new approach that provides a smoother
parabolic effect. This is part1 concerning improve separators,
in part2 applets separator will to try to be improved
--expose the functionality through the configuration
window. The user can choose no latte type internal
active applets indicators, only show to latte internal
applets and show at all applets
