Devin Lin 0bcab0ae3a homescreens/folio: Add keyboard navigation to app drawer and fix on
search

This commit is a subset of
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-mobile/-/merge_requests/694 to add
keyboard navigation to the app drawer.

Pressing the arrow keys while in the app drawer will allow you to
navigate between the apps and the search bar, and going up will exit the
app drawer. Escape/Back is also supported for unfocusing the search bar
and exiting the view.

This also fixes an issue in the keyboard navigation on the search screen
where it wouldn't close when there are no search results.

Plasma Mobile

This repository contains shell components for Plasma Mobile.

Reporting issues

Locations

  • components/mobileshell - private shell component library (API not guaranteed to be stable!)
  • containments - shell panels (homescreens, status bar, task panel)
  • kcms - settings module
  • look-and-feel - Plasma look-and-feel packages (ex. lockscreen, logout, etc.)
  • shell - Plasma shell package, provides implementations for applet and containment configuration dialogs
  • quicksettings - quick settings packages for the action drawer
  • tests - small runnable snippets that can be used to test parts of the shell without loading all of Plasma

Test on a development machine

See the documentation page for more details.

It is recommended to use kdesrc-build to build this from source. See this page in order to set it up.

Dependencies:

  • KDE Frameworks 6 setup (plasma-framework and its dependencies)
  • plasma-nano
  • plasma-workspace
  • plasma-nm
  • plasma-pa
  • bluez-qt
  • Milou (for search)
  • Kirigami
  • Kirigami Addons
  • feedbackd (optional: for vibrations)

To start the shell in a window, run:

QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland dbus-run-session kwin_wayland --xwayland "plasmashell -p org.kde.plasma.mobileshell"

Useful options:

  • Specify the --output-count flag for the number of displays
  • Specify --width and --height for the window size
QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland dbus-run-session kwin_wayland --xwayland "plasmashell -p org.kde.plasma.mobileshell" --output-count 2 --width 360 --height 720
