--improve applets shadows, now the shadows used
are using the backgroundColor when a transparent
panel is forced
--identify better when shadows should be drawn
-- the user can choose this behavior from the Tweaks page,
the panel background in shown only when there is maximized
window and it is fully transparent otherwise
--there are plasma widgets that break the Latte
experience concerning the parabolic effect. We fix
this by providing above them our own Latte solution
and by hiding the applets appearance. At the same
time we make sure that a folder widget is not increasing
its size above 96px. for which its appearance goes to
FullRepresentation
--applets such as folder view and icon where
breaking the animation for icon size < 64px.
This commit uses the heuristic algorithm from
AppletItem in order to discover such plasmoids
and afterwards it fakes a Latte.IconItem over
the PlasmaCore.IconItem
--disable all Math.round(...) from parabolic
effect calculations because this was enough in order
to miss just one pixel that was able to create
a small trebbling
--use a small duration of 20ms for the
directRenderAnimationTime in order to add a bit
more smoothness in the parabolic animation
when directRender is activated
--drop the checkListHovered that was using an
heuristic algorithm to discover if the mouse is
still inside the window. In its place use
the dock.visibility.containsMouse
--use one single globalDirectRender flag from
containment in order for all dock elements to
investigate if they should use directRendering-
painting or play animations instead
--adding the internal separator made the things a little
more complicated. This commit improves the clearing
calculations in order to not conflict the messages
with each other and trying to restore all applets
and tasks that are not considered for the parabolic
effect.
--the applets now take into account the tasks
internal separator in order to provide beautiful
smooth parabolic animation when the internal separator
is at some of the Tasks edges
