~~This only achieves "bare minimum" functionality.~~ ~~Settings aren't all te…sted (the Unity style stuff is probably broken, for example), the settings UI needs fixing, and it is _very much_ WIP.~~ ~~The most basic functionality is usable though - and I'll be adding to this branch (though other contributors' work is welcome)~~ We're approaching _initial_ release quality :partying_face: Known issues: - [X] Windows glitch when returning from overview without autohide - [X] Overview workspaces are the wrong size - [X] Top mode is quite broken (~~I'm considering disabling it for now as other extensions support the "top" experience better~~ UPDATE: It is mainly only broken in shrink mode now) - [ ] Fullscreen autohide is glitchy (haven't had a chance to debug it, I don't consider it a blocking feature) - [ ] Custom background colors can't have custom opacities (this impacts pretty much all the settings at the intersection of opacity/background colors) - [x] Dynamic icon sizing isn't working correctly - [ ] Investigate dynamic icon sizing's impact on the overview, see if multiple dimensions are possible and decide if the desktop dock should instead be constrained to the overview dimensions by default :thinking: - [ ] Trash and volume icons aren't sorted correctly with drag-n-drop, etc. - [x] Trash has incorrect menu - [x] Padding for bottom panel on left/right needs to be added w/ shrink disabled. - [x] Workspace previews are `2:1` :thinking: - [ ] Startup issue with file-manager applications (marking proper app as running) - [ ] z-alignment on dash appicons labels - [ ] Dnd of favorites in left mode - [ ] Open locations from nautilus - [ ] Too many dots on many windows - [ ] Check monitors vertical arrangement - [ ] Ensure windows minimize to the right spot - [ ] Check padding when showing show-apps at beginning - [ ] Bottom app labels overlap with dock in overview (will update as issues get fixed or found) Known trade-offs: - [x] Animations out of the applications view are a bit janky, 40 doesn't provide a simple way to fully exit the overview from the app view. (the context is slightly more complicated, it also involves the show app button state and how it is managed)
