Fixes/Improvements (v0.8.1)




Two Latte panels in Unity mode using properly the
Unity Ambiance plasma theme


  • Most important fix is the new implementation for multi-screen environments. Frustrated as I was from the previous one I decided to make it more robust. With new architecture onPrimary docks/panels have always higher priority that the explicit ones. That change creates a more consistent behavior with Plasma. 

    At the same time a highly sophiticated code that was messing things has been totally removed. Latte was trying to be too smart and never let you without a taskmanager in a multi-screen environment. That was creating more issues than it was solving. In the future when such case for the user occurs a dialog can appear to ask the user what it would prefer to do.
  • Fixes for plasma theme support:
    -
    draw properly plasma theme panel backgrounds based on the edge that the dock or panel is present, e.g. Unity Ambiance, Nilium
    -
    do not double paint plama theme background when the theme does not contain a shadow
  • Fix previews for grouped windows (follow plasma design for window previews)
  • do not move explicit dock on primary screen
  • consider "not show background" case as full transparency
  • consider preferredSize(s) only for >0 values (case of locked analog clock disappearing at a vertical panel)
  • if there is not any active window at all, dodge set docks should reappear
  • do not crash in wayland when right clicking with touchpad
  • identify maximized window screen differently
  • place correctly a new copied dock in a multi-screen environment
  • enable blur for solid theme panels
  • fix for missing global shortcuts '9' badge
  • support unified or not global shortcuts in case the user does not want to use the Latte unified system for its applets. In master version this can be set separately for every dock/panel from its Dock Settings but for v0.8 you should follow:
