--in order to overlay properly the panel background
a roundness option was needed that takes into account
which borders should be drawn. In an upcoming commit
the user will be able to adjut the current plasma
theme roundness. The Colorizer is using now the
CustomBackground in order to draw the background
when the user wants to draw the contents based on
the current active window color scheme.
--support painting based on the active window scheme.
Added a schemecolors class for this and updated
abstractwindowinterface to provide tracking for windows
color schemes.
--fix also a case that the user hasnt enabled to
show panel background at all from the Show option
and the shadows where shown because they were
chosen before it was disabled by the user
--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
--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
--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
During dock sliding-in because the parabolic
effect isnt trigerred immediately but we wait
first the dock to go to its final normal
place we might miss the activation of the
parabolic effect. By catching that signal
we are trying to solve this.
--the following case:
[Windows Go Bellow + Top Panel + Panel Transparency<40%
+ "Improve Visibility" + "Not Forced Solid Background
for maximized windows"]
disables the colorizer because the role of the background
is done from the window titleBar.
--update issue #957 in order to take into account
semi-transparent panels. With semi-transparent panels
contrast could be a puzzle. The changes that
introduced with this patch are:
1. Enable Improve Visibility when also case [E] from
#957 is enabled.
2. When a semi-transparent panel exists in combination
with Improve Visibility option then add a threshold
in order to indicate if the Colorizer will be applied
or not. The threshold is 40% in order to indicate if
a semi-transparent panel is solid or not.
--when the plasmoid is hovered when the
applets hoveredIndex should be initialized
and when an applet is hovered then the plamoids
hoveredIndex should be initialized to -1.
--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.
--in Justify alignment and normal mode, setting the applet
to have as parent the root qml Item it creates a stack in
a lot of cases... By setting the applet container item
directly to more proper parent fixes any issue.
--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.
--when the user has disabled the panel background
but has enabled a solid background for maximized windows
then in such case the panel background must be enabled
for when it is needed
-- in dynamic background it might be important for
the user to increase the contrast because the textColor
from plasma theme and the background might not provide
readable contrast. This feature adds this by giving
to the user the choice to have as monochrome layout
when the panel is transparent to theme.backgroundColor
--previously directRender was activating also when
from the first entered element the mouse moved fast
enough to the second element. But this could happen
also accidentaly some times. This improvements indicates
also the mouse position in the second element to be
near the center of that element
--the new kde activeWindowControl becomes active
when is showing menus. That conflicts with Latte
internal heuristics in order to not show or show
dynamically panel shadows, active indicators etc.
--window previews were lowered in order to touch
the task for which are presenting issues. This way
the mouse confirms alway the taskContainsMouse flag
--title tooltips are shown only when the dock has
ended its sliding-in animations
--issue #852, when directRendering is activated
some of the tasks could be in restoreAnimation,
in such case they stop their animation are moved
to directRendering mode
--issue #852, improve how the two states of zoom-in
and directRendering are indetified and triggered.
The initialization of hovering indexes now is
trigerred only for window mouse out events.
--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
--there were cases that window previews/tasks context menu/
title tooltips were shown at the same time. This patch fixes this
by adding timers to catch these case and show the above on
priority. The priority used is tasks context menu/window
previews/title tooltips
