Filter @other out of the history blacklist so senders without a\ndesktop entry still land in the drawer. Keep the convergence empty\nstate, dismiss path, and popup geometry aligned with the current\nframe and dock layout.
Add missing SPDX copyright and license tags to Motion.qml,
MotionColorAnimation.qml, MotionNumberAnimation.qml, and
MotionStateLayer.qml to satisfy REUSE lint in CI.
Apply Motion tokens to notification drag and stack transitions, volume OSD feedback, KRunner field state, media controls height changes, and action-button popup affordances. Leave timeout and marquee animations as timing behavior.
Use the Motion wrappers for action-drawer transitions, status bar feedback, panel reveal motion, startup feedback, and shell homescreen chrome. Keep non-animation settings reads in ShellSettings where they still control behavior.
Introduce a central Motion singleton for animation durations, easing, and press scale tokens. Add typed NumberAnimation/ColorAnimation wrappers and a reusable state-layer component so runtime QML can share the same animation policy.
Use masked Kirigami icons with explicit theme colors for shell controls so the Shift icon theme renders reliably across light and dark surfaces. Replace the status-bar battery helper with theme icon names so battery glyphs also come from org.shift.icons.
Give the app-thumbnail close affordance a symbolic white X on a dark circular backing so it remains visible over previews.
Reshape the convergence quick settings into a compact
promoted grid and add Clipboard, Disks & Devices, and a
drawer-hosted System Tray popup.
Retry applet popups when their full representation becomes
ready so the desktop utilities open reliably.
Animate dock item sizing and button opacity when toggling convergence
mode so the dock does not snap abruptly between states.
FavouritesBar: promote cell/icon/nav/pager/trash sizing properties to
writable and attach NumberAnimation Behaviors (InOutCubic, longDuration).
Home, Overview, and trash buttons fade in/out with an InOutQuad opacity
Behavior so they appear gradually rather than popping.
Dock overlay (main.qml): introduce an `active` guard property so the
window can be driven by opacity (InOutQuad, shortDuration) rather than
toggling visibility directly. Switch the dockOffset slide easing from
a directional InExpo/OutExpo pair to a single InOutCubic so the motion
feels symmetrical.
StatusBar: smooth the background colour and convergence affordance
transitions.
The coloured rectangle that paints over the bottom panel during an
app-launch animation was reset only by a change of
WindowMaximizedTracker.showingWindow. In convergence mode kwinrc
sets Placement=Centered, so launched apps stay non-maximized,
showingWindow never flips and the band remained on the panel
indefinitely.
Restart a 600 ms safety timer whenever the animation is triggered.
When it fires, clear colour and height to zero only if no maximized
or fullscreen window exists, preserving the original mobile reset
path while fixing the convergence one.
The header button used list-add icon and hard-coded white backgrounds
that did not match the dark theme. Change icon to configure (it opens
Configure Folio for advanced settings, not add-wallpaper), and use
Kirigami.Theme.backgroundColor for both the header and thumbnail
backgrounds.
Introduce shared dock height/reveal constants and use them in folio and taskpanel to keep overlay and exclusion zone aligned. Keep dock backing stationary while only content slides, and add a CTest invariant script to prevent regressions.
Track docked state transitions in KScreenOSDProvider and only snapshot the initial convergence mode when transitioning into docked mode. This restores the previous user preference when outputs drop back to one.
Strut windows committed zero height to layer-shell during
early init, causing a protocol error and session exit. Wrap
height and exclusionZone in Math.max(1, ...) for top bar
and dock.
Persisted gamingModeEnabled=true with hardcoded
gameCenterOpen=false hid panels with no overlay visible.
Initialize gameCenterOpen from the stored setting.
Fix HUD visibility regression from an emergency visible:true
override. Various null-guard and positioning fixes from
static analysis across the gaming shell QML.
Use Kirigami.Theme.textColor for the status bar hover overlay
so it works on both light and dark themes instead of hardcoded
white. Remove convergence-mode branches from the navigation
panel left action since it is hidden in convergence mode and
the code paths were unreachable.
The input region Y was computed from the bottom of the screen
instead of from the top, causing the touch region to be offset
from the actual popup. Use openOffset directly since the popup
anchors to the top. Unify the popup margin into a single
property so the delegate x and the input-region regionX stay
consistent.
Check restrictedPermissions before opening the detail popup in
convergence mode. Guard against null output in the KWin script
window-setup handler to prevent TypeError when a window has no
assigned output yet.
loadPackage + setPath can produce an invalid package if the shell
package is missing. Guard with isValid() to avoid passing a bad
package to setKPackage. Add the QML_SINGLETON factory that the
QML engine requires for proper singleton instantiation.
NavigationPanel: the taskStrip ListView checked contentWidth > width
to decide whether scrolling is enabled, which is wrong when the
panel is vertical. Check contentHeight > height in that case.
taskpanel: dockSpaceReserver used a hardcoded gridUnit * 3 for both
height and exclusionZone. Use navigationPanelHeight so the reserved
strip tracks the actual panel thickness.
NotificationDrawer referenced toolButtons, a sibling defined in
ContentContainer, not a local property. Add toolButtonsItem: Item
and wire it at the call site. Replace the magic literal 10 with
Kirigami.Units.largeSpacing while here.
The PageIndicator had a one-way binding to swipeView.currentIndex
that would break after a user tap. Make it bidirectional with a
Connections block and a loop guard on both sides.
AppletHost: setPreloadFullRepresentation(true) does not guarantee
fullRepresentationItem() is non-null on return — the applet loads
asynchronously. Wire a single-shot connection to
fullRepresentationItemChanged to emit appletReady() when the item
arrives.
TaskWidget: operationDescription() can return null for an unknown
operation name; bail out rather than dereferencing it.
Qt.rgba expects 0.0–1.0 floats. Passing 255 for R/G/B saturates
every channel to 1.0, producing opaque white instead of the
intended semi-transparent tint. Fix all call sites across
FavouritesBar, StatusBar, and AbstractDelegate.
The mobile popup system always anchored to top-center which
looked out of place on a desktop screen. In convergence mode,
position popups at the bottom-right corner and slide them in
from below. Swipe-to-dismiss flips to match (drag down to
dismiss instead of up). Stacked card previews and the popup
drawer tap area are hidden since notifications are already
accessible in the action drawer.
Replace the full-screen slide-down sheet with two fade-in cards
anchored to the top corners. Quick settings sit top-right,
notifications top-left capped at 60% screen height. Background
scrim reduced to 30%. Redundant clock header and status bar
hidden since both are already visible in the top panel.
Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Sound and Battery behave differently from
toggle tiles: tapping them should open a detail panel, not
flip a switch. On a phone the long-press convention handles
this, but with a mouse long-press is unnatural.
Pull these four tiles out of the grid when convergence mode
is active and show them as full-width rows above the remaining
tiles. Each row has two click zones — a toggle pill on the
left that still switches the service on/off, and a detail
area on the right (name, status, chevron) that opens the
Plasma applet popup. The grid hides the duplicates so they
only appear once.
Long-pressing a mapped quick-settings tile in convergence
mode opens a floating popup with the Plasma applet UI
instead of launching System Settings. Unmapped tiles still
open Settings.
AppletHost creates a standalone Corona to host applets
outside the shell containment tree.
open() alone does not set intendedToBeVisible, so the drawer
immediately closes itself. Call the proper toggle path instead.
Also hide the drag handle since convergence users click.
Desktop users have no visual cue that the top bar opens quick
settings. Fade in a small arrow-down icon at the bottom center
when the mouse hovers, matching the arrow-up hint on the
favourites bar.
Drawer is inside the homescreen, which sits behind windows.
Home button minimized everything to reach it. Render it in
a LayerTop window instead and skip the blanket minimizeAll
in the D-Bus handler.
In phone mode, tapping a running app activates its existing
window. In convergence mode this prevents launching a new
instance of the same application.
Skip activateWindowByStorageId when convergence mode is
enabled so that launchApp is always reached, matching
standard desktop launcher behaviour.
The page dots were non-interactive so clicks fell through to the
swipe area and closed the drawer. Set interactive:true and sync
the index back to the SwipeView so clicking a dot switches pages.
Mouse users had no visual cue that clicking the status bar
toggles the action drawer. Add a subtle background highlight
on hover so the bar signals interactivity.
In convergence mode the separate navigation panel is redundant
with window title-bar controls. Remove it by setting its
thickness to zero and visibility to false, then embed Home and
Overview buttons at the left and right ends of the favourites
bar. Running application icons with context menus are shown
between the favourites and the Overview button.
Add HomeScreen::triggerOverview() to invoke the KWin Overview
shortcut over D-Bus so the homescreen containment can open it
without access to the task-panel Plasmoid.
Show numbered desktop indicator buttons between the nav buttons and
the keyboard toggle corner button. Each button highlights the current
desktop and switches on click via VirtualDesktopInfo.requestActivate.
Only visible in convergence mode when multiple desktops exist.
Add Minimize and Maximize/Restore actions to the task strip
right-click context menu alongside the existing Close action.
Reintroduce StatusNotifierModel-based system tray icons, gated on
convergenceModeEnabled. Desktop apps (KDE Connect, nm-applet, etc.)
expose tray icons that were removed in 1914e9be as unusable on
phone screens.
The status bar wrapper is raised above the ActionDrawerOpenSurface
so tray icon MouseAreas receive click events while non-interactive
areas still fall through to the swipe handler.
TaskWidget.qml supports left-click (Activate), right-click
(ContextMenu), hover tooltip, and hides Passive/ApplicationStatus
items. The lockscreen SIGABRT guard (disableSystemTray) is restored
on the action drawer's StatusBar instance.
In convergence mode, show a running-app icon strip in the navigation
panel using the existing TaskManager.TasksModel. Each icon activates
its window on click, with an indicator dot for the active window.
Replace the mobile task switcher button with a KWin Overview trigger:
add triggerOverview() to TaskPanel (D-Bus call to kglobalaccel), swap
the button icon to view-grid-symbolic, and enable the Overview effect
in the envmanager KWin config when convergence mode is active.
Wire convergenceMode and taskModel properties from
NavigationPanelComponent through to NavigationPanel so the task strip
populates from the existing TasksModel instance.
Use the new SwipeArea clicked() signal to open/close the action
drawer on a single click when convergence mode is enabled. The
existing swipe gesture remains available as a fallback.
Emit clicked() when a press-and-release occurs without any swipe
movement. This allows consumers to distinguish taps from swipe
gestures on the same surface.
I noticed at some point after updating my main phone, that non visible external device batteries started taking up extra space in the statusbar. This fixes the issue by filtering out external device batteries by using KSortFilterProxyModel.
Before (with external peripheral connected)
{width=399 height=28}
After
{width=399 height=28}
