Update to the new way to layout window overlays, which requires
setting a slot on the clone, and update to the new padding setting
for the window picker, including a custom style to avoid placing titles
outside the clip area.
3.7 is brought some big changes in the window layout code, but I'm not
going to take advantage of them (as the assume some sort of row based layout).
Instead, just work around them in a way that makes the extension work
without major issues.
A long due update, since this was merged in gjs and core shell.
We no longer need to mess with __proto__ and prototype, and can
use decent syntax for true object oriented programming.
(This affects all except xrandr-indicator, since I want to port
that to GDBus too, using the new bindings right from the start)
Retrieve Convenience from the extension helper object (Me), and
pass no arguments to initTranslations and getSettings (since the
metadata has all that is required)
Introduce a common settings.mk file, which is included in extensions
that need GSettings, to ensure that conventions are respected, and
necessary fixes can be applied from one place.
Add "gettext-domain", "extension-id" (containing the base part of the
UUID) and "gschemabase" (which, combined with "extension-id", gives
the GSettings schema) to metadata.json, autogenerated by the build
system.
Recently gnome-shell changed the code to handle the window overlays
(to fix some bugs aboud the overlay flashing), which resulted in
invisible overlay with this extension. Fix by reimporting some code
from gnome-shell core.
If one wants the extension, clearly he doesn't want the default
layout of windows, therefore it doesn't make sense to replicate
it and to keep settings for it.
It is not used anymore, now that translations are bundled with
the extension. Also, in the zip files it ended up with my home
folder, which is not nice.
Common code for retrieving translations and GSettings schemas has
been factored out into lib/convenience.js, which is part of
every extension installation.
Since that code relies on renames done at zip file creation time,
extensions can no longer be installed with "make install". Instead,
one should create the zip file and install it with the tweak-tool.
There is also a bash script, local-install.sh, that will install
everything in zip-files.
Also, since the GSettingsSchemaSource code is not yet in a stable
GLib release, extensions using GSettings have seen their stable
shell version removed.
Now, typing "make zip-file" will create a standard zip-file for each
extension, with everything necessary, including translations and GSettings schemas.
These files can then be installed with the tweak-tool or uploaded
at extensions.gnome.org
Based on an earlier patch by Jasper St. Pierre.
This is the stable release, so we support all of GNOME Shell
stable cycle without updates.
(As said earlier, dock and alternate-tab have issues, so they're
not marked 3.2 but just 3.2.0)
Now it is possible to use GSettings to configure the placement
strategy (natural KDE-like or default grid) and whether to consolidate
the windows more tigthly, as well as the position of the window
captions.
This extension employs an algorithm (taken from KDE) for layouting
the thumbnails in the overview that more closely reflects the positions
and relative sizes of the actual windows, instead of using a fixed
grid.
