--when an applet is not identified as expandable
but on the other hand has activated the flag
activationTogglesExpanded then for those
applets the mouse wheel option should also
trigger an activation event
--Menu11 and SimpleMenu applets are using a custom
plasmoid approach in order to be able to position their
popups differently on the screen. This patch considers
this in a more generic way and does not use the default
codepath to show popups from these applets. More
importantly the Needs/RequiresAttention status is used
in order to determine the panel/dock visibility for
these applets.
BUG:441053
--the new approach is not using timers but actual
events from View in order to identify when the
view is fully shown and when their popup is actual
visible. This way popup showing and view slide-in
is always synchronized properly
BUG:425078
--onSomethingChanged syntax is preferred for all
slots that are triggered from somethingChanged signals
--doThis syntax is preferred for generic slots that
are triggered from various different codepaths
--when unloading layouts applets are deleted
and subsequently all the heuristics for identifying
expanded applets are removed. In such case
there were rare cases that applet()->id() was
trying to be accessed and that was subsequently
creating crashes because applet did not exist
anymore. AppletQuickItems probably are deleted
after applet has already been destroyed.
--always find the highest view that is going to be
used for global shortcuts based on position activation
--adjust the code a bit for SideBars in order to show
when a SideBar is called for global shortcuts based
on position activation and hide correctly when the
global shortcut is not triggered any more.
BUG:420356
--when the user requests to activate an applet that
it is not expandable such as DashBoard then only
thing that it is possible, it is to forcefully
activate it
BUG:420275
--First steps in order to support mulitple Tasks
applets in the same dock and panel.
--Step1: migrate values from Containment to Task
applet.
--Step2: deprecate Task applet options that are
found in containment
--Step3: provide multiple dynamic Tasks tabs in
settings
--provide a new way to identify which application
launcher has the highest priority in order to be
triggered. When an application launcher applet
has a global shortcut assigned to it then that
application launcher applet has the highest
priority in order to be triggered through
"Super" global key.
--when the application launcher is not a popup then
we do not have to wait for the dock show we can execute
the activation code immediately
--when Latte activates an entry can now understand
if a popup is going to be shown in order to delay
the execution. If a popup is NOT going to show either
for a latte task or an applet then the code is executed
immediately
BUG:415417
FIXED-IN:0.9.6
--all the qml handling code from globalshortcuts is
now moved to Latte::View::ContaimentInterface. This
way the code is cleaner and can be expanded easier.
