--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.
--fix separators, spacers corner cases behavior
--dont apply hidden spacers for separators and
spacers
--remove the plasma panel spacer reference which
is deprecated and not used any more
--fixed struts gap for !compositing mode in order
to handle the strange kwin behavior. Kwin under
!compositing removes 1px. from the struts specified
by windows
--plenty of fixes concerning automatic coloring
under !compositing mode
--following plasma approach and use always
even for !compositing mode the widgets/panel-background
svg file. This way when Latte and Plasma panels are
combined there is uniformity between them.
BUG: 406597
--this patch positions correctly behaveAsPanel view
types in !compositing mode concerning and taking into
account maxLength and offset
--the patch introduces also an AppletsContainer to
substitute all three layouts of LayoutsContainer
--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.
