--add an option in Tweaks page in order for the user
to define which dock/panel will have the highest priority
for global shortcuts activation. This option can be
used is per layout basis. Each layout can have its own
high priority dock/panel for Latte unified shortcuts.
BUG: 398914
--the dock settings window calculations should not look
different between different font settings/geometries/screens.
One way to overcome that issue is by using the font.height to
calculate the settings height, that is 37chars for now and
the width to be calculated in accordance with that height. There
are some down limits for both, height shouldnt overcome screens
height and shouldnt go under 400px and the width can not be
less than 200px
CCBUG: 397038
--to make things even more robust the dock settings
window width is made a portion of the dock settings
window height. The code was also checked in order to not
create any bindings loops
BUG: 396872
--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.
--this is the first beta release for
v0.8. Everything will be open for the
upcoming days including translation
strings improvements. Beta2 possibly
will introduce a string freeze.
--use QtControls 2.2 for Sliders in dock settings
and update the Latte required version to 5.9 which
is LTS. Most distros should have already updated
to that one.
-as it appears the PlasmaComponents3.Slider
was adding too much visual distraction. I had
to fork it in order to use it dock settings
window. We needed the behavior of wheelEnabled
in order to disable it and the only slider
providing it from Qt 5.7 was the QtControls 2.0
Slider
--when only launchers are shown and the user
has chosen to disable any active indicator
then the plasmoid should behave only as
a smart launchers list with no window
capabilities
--fork the PlasmaComponents Slider in order to
update to newer Qt version and support the
wheelEnabled property. After that just disable
wheel for all sliders in Appearance page.
--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.
--implementation of the design decisions described at
issue #957. Panel Background and Dynamic Background
options interact with each other concerning
panel transparency and triggering of solidness or
transparency.
