--improve how the applet size is calculated for fill(s)
applets when such applets are used in Left/Center/Right
alignments. This also fixes the bug that the plasma
taskmanager was not updating its size properly when tasks
were added after the initialization phase.
BUG: 401456
--the user can use applets such as
plasma icon-only taskmanager to alignments
Left,Center,Right. In previous versions
this was possible only for Justify alignment.
--applets can have different main elements based on their
implementation. In such case we use a depth of 2 in order
to search for elements that contain variable isInLatte
--this item is fully responsible in order to
communicate the latte containment with any
underlying applet. A protocol specification
is used in that item in order for applets and
latte to exchange information.
currently supported:
ingoing parameters (to applet):
bool isInLatte // is in a Latte dock
outgoing parameters (from applet):
//deprecated from disableLatteOverlay
bool disableLatteParabolicIcon
bool disableLatteOverlay //dont use Latte overlays
--do not consider preferredWidth or preferredHeight
for applets when that value is <=0 otherwise that
applet it may become invisible. Such case is the
plasma analog clock when it is locked at a vertical
dock
BUG: 398098
FIXED-IN: 0.8.1
--with this commit now Latte is able to identify what are
the global shortcuts used for each activation entry and
also to not show at all any badge for activation entries
that are disabled from the user
BUG: 397128
--trying to combine dock mode, panel mode and
parabolic effect with plasma applets current implementation
can create such issues. Removing the zoom=1
criteria to activate the Latte MouseArea. The
user can still lock plasmoids that want the
Hover Default Plasmoid behavior or use the
Latte protocol to understand when they are in a Latte
containment.
FIXED-IN: 0.8.1
--in multiple layouts environment the user
may prefer different settings for its global
shortcuts, in some may wants to use global
shortcuts for its applets and in another
layout may not.
--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
--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.
--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
--The Plasma layout is using the Latte plasmoid. By
following that case the neutral applets areas werent
activated. This is fixed now and also the click animation
in such cases.
--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.
-- the mousearea used for the parabolic effect
can block some important signals to go to
underneath applets. We make sure that such
signals are not accepted, and as such are
forwarded to underlying applets.
--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.
--animate tasks hidden spacers properly
when a task is inAttention and the user
enters the mouse at first time when the task
isnt zoomed
--improve tasks hidden spacers animated
behaviors
--improve applets hidden spacers animated
behaviors
--the directRenderDelayer is used during first
entering in order to delay the activation of
directRendering. The cons of previous fastEntering
implementation added the necessity for this
replacement.
--when the user has chosen to activate tasks
through mouse wheel and there are applets that
can be hovered, then for these applets the mouse
wheel can be also used to activate/deactivate them.
