--the new code can understand ALL applets that are
inside an internal containment style applets such
as plasma, nomad systrays and group plasmoid
FIXED-IN:0.9.10
--the workaround to reshow views when the activities are
pausing from the kwin_x11 bug interfer with user REMOVING
a dock or panel. We now protect the workaround to not
interfere with REALREMOVING
--behaveAsPlasmaPanel can now slide in/out as real windows
but after they hide there is a chance that their geometry
should be updated. This patch makes sure that this will
happen exactly before the BEHAVEASPLASMAPANEL starts
sliding-in.
--when the user has chosen to hide the screen gap
when there is a maximized window in the screen and
at the same time the View behaves as plasma panel,
it now slides in/out nicely
--this way we make sure that the user will be
able to trigger showing with mouse at the screen
edge. Using the window mask to succeed in this
in not an option.
--change them with moveTop/Left which provide
the exact math calculations that are needed
for geometries. Functions setX/Y must be
avoided because they may change the width
and height values.
--Latte can now support multiple Views in the same screen
edge. Views as separated in THREE Layers of priorities.
1. Views from Shared Layouts have highest priority and they
are first to occupy a screen edge
2. Views that are set OnPrimary screen occupy a screen edge only
if there is NO other View from a Shared Layout applied already
3. Views that are Explicit to specific screens occupy a screen
edge only if there is NO PRIMARY view already loaded
--make the top/bottom borders identification much
smarter in order to identify in they must be drawn.
There are many corner cases that these borders should
be drawn, for example when a vertical top aligned
panel is half shown its top border because of a
top panel
--the user can now choose for vertical views to
stick their edges at the top or bottom screen edge
and ignore any top or bottom views accordingly. These
options are available in the Transparent Settings
area for vertical views and in advanced settings
mode.
--improve calculations for Effects area during startup
and at the same time when the dock is totally hidden
so it should not paint any effects area at all.

FIXED-IN:0.9.9
--at the same time create a base SubWindow class for
all window helpers used by Views. Now ScreenEdgeGhostWindow
and FloatingGapWindow use the same window implementation
--create FloatingGapWindow the first time needed
from VisibilityManager if it is not already created.
--remove FloatingGapWindow when View::screenEdgeMarginEnabled
is disabled
--this indicator is used only internally from Latte
in order to draw default plasma applets tab style
indicators when the user has chosen to not draw
latte specific indicators. A good example of its
usage is when the plasma theme contains tabbar
indicator which is used in applets and the Latte
overlayed icon applets need to use the same visual
with the regular plasma applets.
--enabledForApplets and lengthPadding for indicators
has now moved to indicators responsibility to handle
--as a consequence usesPlasmaStyle has been removed
from indicators API. The corner cases that indicators
conflict with plasma theme applets should be handled
differently and in a different way
--use a different shadows manager for dialogs such as
dock settings window through the Latte::Corona class.
The new shadow manager is responsible to draw
"dialogs/background" shadows for windows instead of
the PanelShadows original class which is responsible
to draw "widgets/background" shadows
