--- Comment #31 from Michail Vourlakos <mvourla...@gmail.com> --- Just an update for this everyone. I have paused the Unity specific development for a good reason. By developing all new Unity and Plasma indicator styles it became very clear to me that the entire indicators mechanism in general need to updated and improved because starting to work with specific styles such as Plasma and Unity. So what I am working now is the following: 1. Each indicator style should be just one qml file that is going to be used both for applets and tasks (this is not currently the state) 2. New margins should be introduced: 2a. Thickness margin 2b. Length Internal margin 2c. Length External margin 3. Latte will provide to indicators only the item size + the internal margins and NOT the external margins. This way the items could be visually totally separated with each other 4. Each indicator style will have access to Latte values such a item size, isActive, isMinimized, number of windows in the group etc. in order to paint itself properly 5. With [1]+[2] we can investigate if more indicator styles could be installed by the user. For example someone could create a Gnome qml style and install it in order to use it with Latte By playing with [1]+[2] the new design works so much better with plasma environment. The new architecture takes the plasma design as granted and uses that in order to paint its indicators. That solves an issue of Latte style with reversed indicators, when the user was using reversed indicators and was clicking an applet the reversed indicators was overlapped by the popup. We can now achieve this: https://i.imgur.com/JZ045en.png Of course this will need a lot of testing so I hope that when this will be merged around a week from now you are all going to help to debug it and fix small issues here and there... have fun everyone -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
