Add startClose() which plays a 160ms InCubic fade-out before emitting close(). Back/Escape triggers now call startClose() instead of close() directly. visible keeps the item rendered during the exit animation via isClosing flag. Launch path bypasses animation (immediate).
Bind MultiEffect opacity to backdropImg.status so blur fades out when source changes (Image.Loading) and fades in when new image is ready (Image.Ready). Previously opacity was static at 0.38 so the Behavior was never triggered.
- showHidden was hardcoded false; GameSortFilterModel uses it as 'show ONLY hidden' so Hidden tab always returned empty
- filterSource also passed 'hidden' as a platform string, filtering everything out; now returns empty string for hidden
- Add Layout.fillWidth to BottomHintBar in ConsoleGameDetail so it lays out correctly in ColumnLayout
- Add subtle white overlay (4-6% opacity) to GameCard on hover/highlight for clearer feedback
- Reduce ConsoleGameDetail coverArt shadow blur from 0.7 to 0.25 and offset from 12 to 8 to prevent bleeding
- Force isMask on header Kirigami.Icon contentItems (Search/Import/Settings) so white color is applied regardless of icon theme
- Remove MultiEffect shadow from GameCard (was bleeding far outside card bounds)
- Add gridActive prop to GameCard so selection highlight depends on actual flickable focus, not wrapper focus
- Two-tier selection: full highlight when grid focused, dim border when grid unfocused (card stays visible)
- Focus transfer: gamepad Up from top row emits headerFocusRequested; Down from rail/buttons calls libraryView.restoreFocus()
- Gate gamepad navigation guards on grid.flickable.activeFocus (Maui.GridBrowser internal GridView)
- Add MauiMan4 + MauiKit4 submodules pinned at v4.0.2
- Wire both into CMake via CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_REDIRECTS_DIR build-tree stub
- Create MauiMan4 header shim for build-tree include layout
- Undefine QT_NO_CAST/QT_NO_FOREACH/QT_NO_KEYWORDS for MauiKit4 targets
- Link alakarte against MauiKit4
- Rewrite Main.qml: Maui.ApplicationWindow, dark console shell, blurred
game backdrop, category rail, search bar, bottom gamepad hint bar
- Rewrite GameCard.qml: cover-art card with scale+glow focus effects
- Rewrite LibraryView.qml: Maui.GridBrowser with gamepad D-pad navigation
- New ConsoleCategoryRail.qml: horizontal pill category nav with L1/R1
- New ConsoleGameDetail.qml: cinematic full-screen game detail overlay
with cover art, action buttons, fade-in animation, gamepad hints
Expand TrayController with daemon health polling every 10 seconds via
D-Bus Ping calls to org.kde.GameCenter1, org.kde.ALaKarte.Runner1, and
org.kde.ALaKarte.Input1. Add menu actions to toggle console behaviors,
notification mirroring, and to restart each daemon via systemctl --user.
Add NotificationInhibitor, owned by App, which calls
org.freedesktop.Notifications Inhibit/UnInhibit on the session bus
whenever the consoleBehaviors config setting changes. The cookie is
released on application quit.
Add consoleBehaviors and mirrorNotifications properties to Config with
KConfig persistence under the [Console] group.
Ship org.kde.alakarte.notifyrc defining GameLaunched, GameExited, and
LaunchFailed notification events so Plasma attributes them correctly in
the notification history.
Extend RunnerManagerDaemon::ResolveLaunch with a flatpak runner branch
that constructs a flatpak run command, translates environment overrides
to --env= arguments, and respects flatpakAppId, flatpakBranch,
flatpakArch, and flatpakArgs from the launch spec.
Add activate_session, switch_to_vt, and terminate_session actions to
the gamecenter KAuth helper and its polkit policy. Each action calls
the corresponding method on org.freedesktop.login1 over the system bus.
Add CouchSidebar.qml, a horizontal source tab bar shown in couch mode
above the library view, exposing the same sourceSelected, settingsRequested,
importRequested, and aboutRequested signals as SidebarView.
Fix duplicate adaptiveFocusRingWidth property in GameCard.qml.
Replace the settings OverlaySheet with a pageStack layer page to avoid header/sidebar overlap. Keep keyboard/gamepad focus navigation and scrolling. Tweak SettingsPage spacing and make grid selection start unselected for better navigation.
Add a bottom hint bar with keyboard/gamepad hints and controller-specific icons.
Also add a UI mode setting (auto/desktop/handheld) to improve the adaptive layout on different form factors.
Ensure editing a game updates the library view and the edit dialog reliably.
- Refresh the model when a Game emits change signals so filtering/sorting stays in sync.
- Reload edit fields on open/game change to avoid stale values after typing.
- Center the edit dialog with an explicit size.
Make Settings/About sheets easier to dismiss via close affordances and
press-outside behavior.
Lazy-load the AboutPage to avoid KirigamiAddons null window warnings.
Simplify About metadata and provide non-empty license text.
Initial release of A-La-Karte, a unified game launcher for KDE Plasma.
Includes the QML UI, platform importers, AppStream metadata, icons,
and developer documentation.
