--the user can now move the background opacity slider
to the farest left side and is such case it will get
the plasma theme default opacity. This is the same
way that background radius and shadows size can return
to default settings
BUG:443366
--when user is using no thickness margin influence
for parabolic effect it nice to have a little bigger
zoom factor in order for parabolic zoom to
look nicer
--This is a HUGE FEATURE and so important for multi-screens
users. It is introduced as one single commit because it
reimplements plenty of infrastructure changes and it will
be easier to identify newly introduced bugs.
--Users can now choose for their docks and panels to belong
at various screen groups. The first two screen groups introduced
are AllScreens and AllSecondayScreens. In the future it might
be possible to provide CustomScreensGroup that the user will
be able to define specific screens in which a dock or panel
should be always present.
--Current solution specifies an Original dock or panel and clones/copies
itself automatically to other screens. So docks and panels in other screens
are just real docks and panels that reference themselves to original
docks and panels.
--Clones are destroyed during layout startup and are automaticaly
recreated. It is suggested to export your layouts through the
official Layouts Editor in order to share them because in that case
clones are not included in the new generated layout file. If in any
case you do not this and you share your layout with any previous
versions then your clones will just appear as separate docks and
panels that belong to specific screens.
--Automatic syncing was introduced in order to keep up-to-date
the configuration of Original docks and panels with their referenced
Clones.
--Automatic syncing currently works for all docks and panels settings,
for all normal applets configurations and for all subcontaiments
configuration such as systrays.
--Automatic syncing does not work for applets inside subcontainments
such as Group Plasmoid. In such case it is suggested to configure
your applets inside your Group Plasmoid in the original dock or panel
and afterwards to trigger a recreation for the relevant clones
--Manual recreation of clones is easily possible by just choosing
the dock or panel to be OnPrimary or OnSpecificScreen and rechoosing
afterwards the AllScreensGroup or AllSecondaryScreensGroup
--fix how CanBeAboveFullscreen windows option can be
enabled/disabled properly and work correctly
--fix how Blur is handled for docks and panels that
can be AboveFullScreenWindows under X11. Blur is now
working correctly for them but of course GtkFrameExtents
do not work at all because they are intended to work
based on KWin implementation.
BUG:443536
--this way a layout designer can force to its users
the desired color palette for each dock and panel.
BeCareful: designers should be very careful with this
because they take responsibility to disable latte auto-coloring
at per-applet basis in order for chromatic applets to NOT
be autocolored from latte because they already provide enough
contrast.
BUG:435714
--using hidden VisibilityManager::floatingGapWindow
implementation in order to provide full access for
the area which is below the screen margin when the
user has disabled user interaction for that area
BUG:433820
- Hide Thickness Screen Gap scenario provides two different struts thicknesses.
--- [1] The first struts thickness is when there is no maximized window and is such case
--- the view is behaving as in normal AlwaysVisible visibility mode. This is very useful
--- when users tile windows. [bug #432122]
--- [2] The second struts thickness is when there is a maximized window present and in such case
--- the view is hiding all of its screen edges. It is used mostly when the view is wanted
--- to act as a window titlebar.
BUG:432122
--fix case that indicators config uis were lost totally
during recreating a view that was using a custom indicator
and that custom indicator was updated.
--fix case that custom indicators were not assigned any
more to their original views when the dock settings
window was created first time for them.
