There's no need to show the workspace indicator at the right
corner of the window-list if there's just a single workspace
AND the workspace creation is static. This saves us a bit more
of space.

We currently assume that the application associated with a particular
window is fixed. While this holds true for almost every application,
there are some cases of multi-app-packages like LibreOffice where
windows may change the properties used for application matching at
runtime. Catch those cases to make sure we display the correct icon
when the window shifts applications.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=771731
Independent from the grouping mode, the window-list currently shows
up as a series of "push buttons" in screen readers, which is obviously
not useful, so point to the correct labels.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=755223
It is odd to consider windows that are not shown in the window list
for app sorting, in particular when switching between grouped and
ungrouped mode, and when a long-lived window like the DESKTOP is
present.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=753055
Just like the top bar, the window list should scale according to
the font scaling factor, so convert the existing pixel sizes into
font-relative ones.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=703585
The window list position depends on both the monitor geometry and the
list height, however changes to the latter are currently ignored. For
the time being this doesn't matter due to the list's fixed height, but
we are about to scale the list with the text, so reposition the list
on height changes.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=703585
The window-list's fixed height currently allows us to get away without
expanding buttons, however this won't be the case anymore once we start
adapting the list with the text scaling. So fix up the code to do what
was always the intention anyway.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=703585
By default, PanelMenu.Button creates a popup menu with arrow side TOP
which is wrong in our case and can mess up BoxPointer's positioning.
We can work around that easily by creating the menu ourselves with the
correct arrow side.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=746365
Menus in the top bar have some margin at the bottom, to prevent
menus to extend all the way to the bottom edge as the expand; we
obviously don't want the same behavior in the window-list at the
bottom, so stop pretending to be a top bar menu.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745952
The point of that code is to keep the window-list underneath
modals' lightboxes if possible (i.e. unless the OSK is shown).
The trayBox was a natural pick back in the day, but the panel
will do just as well ...
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745304
MetaWindow.title might be NULL, particularly for Wayland clients where
setting the title is a request separate from window creation. We
shouldn't try to set StLabel's text prop in that case.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745064
While rare, it is possible to have a window not associated with any app
(not even a fake window-based one). We currently throw an error when
trying to set the icon for such a window, so handle this case and
use a fallback icon instead of the app icon.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=743401
Notification banners are now displayed at the top, and the summary
moved into the date and time drop down - the bottom is ours now,
no more special sauce needed to interact with it gracefully.
Currently the window-list will be stacked above system modal dialogs,
which means it is not dimmed like the rest of the desktop and remains
accessible to interaction. We cannot do any better when showing the
on-screen keyboard, as we need to keep ourselves above to not end up
covered by the OSK, and the keyboard itself is stacked above modal
dialogs to allow its use for input. However we can at least fix the
case when not using the OSK.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=740722
Classic mode uses a different overrides schema, so make sure we use the
correct setting instead of hardcoding the usual org.gnome.shell.overrides
schema.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=737486
A new setting "show-on-all-monitors" (false by default) is available to
show window lists on all connected monitors.
The Extension object monitors conditions that require the list of
windows to be rebuilt. The WindowList and Button classes have a new
"perMonitor" property that indicates they should handle windows on
their own monitor only.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=737486
BaseButton is a new class that shares the common logic of WindowButton
and AppButton. AppButton is passed to AppContextMenu so that it can reuse
code from the now public getWindowList() method.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=737486
Move messageTray patching form the Extension object to the WindowList
class. Moreover, only do the patching if the window list is on the bottom
monitor. This refactoring will make it easier to have several instances
of WindowList (one on each monitor).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=737486
Currently when using auto-grouping, the list is ungrouped each
time a window is closed, and then possibly re-grouped on the next
allocation - as a result, there is a brief "ungroup flash" if the
list is supposed to remain grouped.
Avoid this by computing the width the ungrouped list would have
rather than by actually ungrouping it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=738286
Since commit 191c7ccc24, we check whether we already have a window
in the list before re-adding it on MetaWorkspace::window-added.
We can do something similar on MetaWorkspace::window-removed to
avoid some extra work when a window is moved between workspaces
rather than destroyed.
The list returned may contain windows that are being destroyed.
The ShellGlobal method filters those out, so use that instead; we
should eventually stop looking at window actors when we want windows,
but for now this is the easy and safe thing to do.
When a window's on-all-workspaces property changes to true, the
workspaces the window was not located on will emit the ::window-added
signal for the window; however we don't want multiple buttons for
the same window, so filter out the extra calls.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736398
The workspace button used to extend to the bottom edge, which of
course is A Good Thing (tm) - commit ec8f269107 broke this when
it added an additional container to the hierarchy, expand the
button again to bring back the old mouse-friendly behavior.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=708247
Currently the initial set of buttons is in stack/MRU order. To
avoid shuffling around the list each time it is disabled/re-enabled
(lock screen) or the group-mode settings changes, sort it by the
stable sequence.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=719933
The message tray is moved to the bottom-most monitor when there are
monitors below the primary monitor; in that case, we need to leave
the tray alone.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=728288
This is something that gnome-panel supported, and apparently
some users would like to have it back, so restore this feature
on our window list too.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=723693
PopupBaseMenu provides a destroy() method that will destroy the menu
actor and make sure that the menu will be removed from the corresponding
PopupMenuManager (if any). We miss the latter when we destroy the menu
actor directly, so use the menu method instead.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=724688
Depending on the number of windows, AppButtons use different right-click
menus ("Minimize" vs. "Minimize all").
As the menu for the multiple-windows case remains the same, it is created
and added just once. However this means that in the single-window case,
the corresponding PopupMenuManager will track two menus for the same
source actor, resulting in various misbehaviors.
Fix these issues by adding and removing the app context menu appropriately,
so that the PopupMenuManager tracks a single menu at any time.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=724688
StButton takes the hover state into account to decide whether a
series of events should be considered a click. So when dismissing
a menu by clicking on a different window/app button, its menu
cannot be triggered before leaving and re-entering the button
(and thus syncing the hover state).
Fix this by always syncing the hover state after a grab is dropped.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=724688
Applications now track all their windows, not just the ones that are
expected to show up in the window list. So to restore the previous
behavior, we now have to filter out windows with the skip-taskbar
hint ourselves.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=724134
While the list of windows in the left-click menu is filtered by
workspace, the minimize/maximize/close actions in the right-click
menu apply to all application windows on all workspaces.
This is fairly confusing, so restrict the actions to only apply
to windows that do appear in the left-click list.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=724134
Animate showing and hiding the window list when toggling the
overview (with a translation on and off the screen). Don't actually
change the visible status of the actor, because we don't want
to change struts.
Default _ is gettext from gnome-shell domain, which doesn't have
the strings we need.
We could use mutter's, but translators already did their job
on pretty much all supported languages, so...
