--separators are only usings the external margins
between items. In the past it was also consider
the indicators internal padding. This is not
needed and it was creating too big empty
spaces with no real reason.
--through level.requested options each indicator
instance can request specific repositioning for
each icon. Very good example for this is the
Win7 style indicator
--when qml uses software rendering checks should be
added in order to not hide the visual elements. This
is taking place now in a more concrete way and checked
also that tasks with badges or not are still shown
BUG:411037

--when qml software rendering is enabled the ShaderEffects
do not work. Hiding sources in that case is hiding
from the user tasks and applets with no visual feedback.
Sources in that case should hide themeselves and give
the user the minimum which is the original drawn contents.

window. By default the Flat style is preferred

--The user from Tasks,Badges can choose a more prominent
color for notification badges (usually reddish). In case
the user has not enabled that option(default) then the plasma
theme highlight color is used which is also the default

--the user can now adjust the Scrolling options
for its Tasks when the items overflow. The following
are provided:
Scrolling: ENABLE/DISABLE
--Manual Scrolling: DISABLE/PARALLEL/HORIZONTALANDVERTICAL
--Auto Scrolling: ENABLE/DISABLE
BUG: 407779
--when dragging a new applet over the view
the responsiveness is now improved vastly
--the new architecture uses two different
DragAndDropAreas. One which is the old one
and is used when dragged launchers, urls and
separators. The second is used only when
applets are dragged into the view
--the visuals for adding launchers/applets have
been improved and a circular visual is preferred
now instead
--plasmoid.screenGeometry is costly under Latte environment
because it supports multple layouts in multiple activities.
By using the View::screenGeometry the calls are minimized
almost totally.
--info badges updated their colors in order to attract
more attention on them. Most themes etc. use for their
negativeTextColor a reddish color so that is a good
match for this.
--this is side-way path for mouse events and
more specific the mouse pressed, released
events to be sent from parent window to its
qml containment part. This way it is possible
to keep the original plasma applet behavior
such as original plasma tooltips and provide
Latte specific functionality such as animated
clicks from indicators.
NOTE: An investigation - testing took place in
order to check if this approach could be also used
for mouseMove events to be used for applets parabolic
effect. The result was that this was not possible because
there were too many signals and too much calculations
too identify for which applet the signal belonged to.
The parabolic effect was not fluid in that case and
could not catch up.

Summary:
When iconSize is not big enough, center aligned shortcut badges look better than top-left aligned ones.
BUG: 406037
Test Plan:
- When iconSize < 48: shortcut badges are center aligned
- When iconSize >= 48: they are top-left aligned
For example, with iconSize = 32:

--introduce a new class called level which contains
all the needed information concerning indicator level
and at the same time the bridge that provides information
for the specific indicator states
--indicators now support both Back/Front
layers. Back layer is the usual layer
behind the current Item and the Front layer is
a layer above the current Item (overlay)
--update Unity to follow new architecture
--the Colorizer that was responsible to
grey out the information badges when the

--first commit to restructure editMode in order to

--the new behavior gives more priority to progress actions
over notification items such as "unread emails". Progress
actions at the end probably they will end and after that

BUG: 403559
--in order to be able to draw correctly the badges when
they exceed the tasks boundaries the effects needed to

etc. provide better freedom from code point of view.
BUG: 403518
Trying to handle the case of 403353 .
We update the badge mask when the badge information
have updated. Strange issue because this

for tasks badges indicators.
Summary:
Changes in libtaskmanager in Plasma 5.15 currently break several Latte Dock features. This patch ensures that Latte Dock will continue to work when Plasma 5.15 is released.

--during dragging the DelegateModel inside
TaskWindows may not catch up with TasksModel
modelIndex() function and that could create
crashes. In order to avoid such crashes the
DelegateModel is not updated during dragging
and we give it also a little time to update
after the dragging has finished.
--moving a task now is not synced immediately to
other docks. Syncing takes place only in the end.
The dock in which the user changed the launchers

--previews showed some strange behavior by
re-introducing faulty or empty previews under
X11. Best way to approach this is to follow up
plasma design idea in order for the code to be
comparable. The code was updated and the introduced
issue shows to be fixed but this wants users

BUG: 396737

--in plasma 5.13 there are cases the libtaskmanager
shows two launchers because we delay the launcher
removal for the bouncing animation. A way
to fix this by the user is to disable all startups
through plasma systemsettings->launch feedback
for the taskmanager. But because this is a
default plasma option many users would feel
uncomfortable when the launching animation
breaks. Such apps were gimp and inkscape.
This patch handles that case in order to provide
a nice no-breaking launcher animation for
these apps also.
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.
-- when removing a task and there are surrounding
separators then the hidden spacers are updated
immediately for the neighbour tasks. In such case
in order to not break the removal animation a small
margin must applied.
