Update for Gnome Shell 46 #2146

sergio-costas · 2024-02-12T16:18:05Z

add_actor() has been removed after being deprecated, and it must be replaced with add_child(). Also, there are two add methods that also have to be changed.

Tested in Gnome 46 alpha, in a Fedora RawHide system. I also tested it in Gnome 45, but doesn't work, so it must be only 46.

sergio-costas · 2024-02-14T09:40:36Z

In fact, using this patch in Gnome Shell 45 results in a tiny, empty dock, and a lot of messages in journal like this one:

Can't update stage views actor <unnamed>[<XXXXXXX>:0xYYYYYYYY] is on because it needs an allocation.

ryzendew · 2024-02-15T14:31:05Z

issues to report

With shrink the dash icons pop up over the dock line

and without

icons are too far up

when transparent icons have weird circles

sergio-costas · 2024-02-15T15:17:10Z

@ryzendew Are you using Gnome 45 or Gnome 46?

sergio-costas · 2024-02-15T15:34:55Z

Ok, there are some extra problems:

JS ERROR: TypeError: (intermediate value).cairo_set_source_color is not a function
_drawIndicator@file:///home/raster/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/ubuntu-dock@ubuntu.com/appIconIndicators.js:411:17

For some reason, it can't find that function. Also

Error: No signal 'actor-added' on object 'MetaWindowGroup'

Stack trace:
  _create@file:///home/raster/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/ubuntu-dock@ubuntu.com/utils.js:172:30


Error: No signal 'actor-removed' on object 'MetaWindowGroup'

Stack trace:
  _create@file:///home/raster/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/ubuntu-dock@ubuntu.com/utils.js:172:30

I'll try to fix them...

metadata.json

sergio-costas · 2024-02-15T17:13:07Z

More things to fix:

The GObject property St.ScrollView.hscroll is deprecated.
0 ensureActorVisibleInScrollView() ["file:///home/raster/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/ubuntu-dock@ubuntu.com/dash.js":1113:38]

sergio-costas · 2024-02-15T17:14:56Z

Fixed the cairo_set_source_color bug.

sergio-costas · 2024-02-15T17:49:02Z

And fixed the signal problem.

sergio-costas · 2024-02-15T17:50:26Z

@ryzendew I'm unable to reproduce those errors. Can you try again with the new changes that I added, just in case?

ryzendew · 2024-02-15T23:09:16Z

@ryzendew Are you using Gnome 45 or Gnome 46?

46 beta

ryzendew · 2024-02-15T23:12:45Z

also no change with the newest change

rastersoft · 2024-02-15T23:27:10Z

@ryzendew Can you tell me your dock configuration? (icon size...)

ryzendew · 2024-02-16T12:04:56Z

this needs to be rebased on the beta cause the alpha is 1 month old and the beta has a few changes

sergio-costas · 2024-02-19T16:28:48Z

There are still several bugs in Gnome 46 beta:

The icons have incorrect size, as @RyzenDev commented
The "push to show" option doesn't work: if it is selected, pushing in the dock zone doesn't make it to pop up
The overview mode is broken: this message is shown in the log: clutter_actor_allocate: assertion '!isnan (real_allocation.x1) && !isnan (real_allocation.x2) && !isnan (real_allocation.y1) && !isnan (real_allocation.y2)' failed

sergio-costas · 2024-02-26T12:22:46Z

The "push to show" option fails because the data sent from Gnome Shell is... odd... I don't know if it's a problem from Gnome Shell itself and its PressureBarriers, or is a problem due to being using VirtualBox. The problem is that, once the mouse cursor is at the screen border, it doesn't matter how hard you move it against the border, the distance indicated by the barrier is always 0.765625, so unless you achieve the required pressure in the first "push", the dock won't appear.

sergio-costas · 2024-02-27T12:19:13Z

I've been able to fix the Overview problem in Gnome 46. It was because maybeAdjustBoxSize() and maybeAdjustBoxToDock() were being called with this.spacing as the last parameter, but that property isn't defined anywhere, so the received value was undefined, and this broke the allocation values (it put NaN in several places).

I just added a check to set it to zero if the value is undefined, but maybe it is possible to just fully remove the parameter itself, because it seems to be used only when calling those two methods, and I can't find neither other places where those methods are called, nor other places where the property is set. @3v1n0 What do you think?

sergio-costas · 2024-02-27T12:20:03Z

I decided to convert this into a draft to avoid merges until it is fully finished.

sergio-costas · 2024-02-29T15:23:06Z

Ok, it is ready for reviewing.

3v1n0

Some comments, mostly on style (but it does matter because CI will block it otherwise), but it works really well... So thanks a lot for working on this!

appIconIndicators.js

theming.js

utils.js

windowPreview.js

docking.js

_stylesheet.scss

ryzendew · 2024-03-01T03:35:07Z

Great work but you missed the show apps icon it's still has black around it

sergio-costas · 2024-03-01T11:31:02Z

Ops!!! Fixed.

3v1n0 · 2024-03-01T13:50:15Z

Ah, for your info, I've landed this to ubuntu yesterday, so also consider the fixups I did at https://github.com/micheleg/dash-to-dock/tree/ubuntu-dock

jbicha · 2024-03-02T15:03:44Z

In case you weren't already aware, I'm missing the indicator next to running apps in the Ubuntu Dock. This is with 89ubuntu1 that is now in Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. And I'm using GNOME Shell 46~beta-0ubuntu2 and I'm still using the same Yaru theme as Ubuntu 23.10.

rastersoft · 2024-03-02T21:01:57Z

@jbicha I don't understand... Can you put me a screen capture?

muhammad-ans · 2024-03-02T21:43:13Z

There is also this weird square around app icons in overview when it is installed.

This patch fixes the placement error in the app icons

While it's safe to use either in GNOME 46, it is not always safe to use (clutter_actor_)add_child directly in GNOME 45. Because the notification StBin requires to update its internal state wasn't added until gnome-shell@ed3b8d093e introduced in 46.alpha. At least (st_bin_)set_child remains the same in all GNOME versions, and is what the old (clutter_container_)add_actor used to call in GNOME 45. There may be other places where we need to change add_child to set_child for backward compatibility with StBin, but if they exist then they're not causing problems yet. Closes: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2056506 Fixes: 4945dbf

sergio-costas · 2024-03-18T15:18:24Z

@karuboniru @garrett It should be fixed now. Thanks for testing it!

vanvugt · 2024-03-19T01:50:31Z

If you're using >100% scale then there's also an upstream fix coming for the dots: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/3245

vanvugt · 2024-03-19T07:44:22Z

The dots are still misplaced (in GNOME 46 only?):

vanvugt

Conditionally approved pending the dot-over-the-icon bug mentioned above. It still seems to be happening in GNOME 46.0 at least.

sergio-costas · 2024-03-19T10:15:15Z

@vanvugt But, if I get it right, the patch for the dot problem is for Gnome Shell itself...

ghost · 2024-03-19T15:30:58Z

Hi,
Thanks for the extension update. I have one bug to report.

The Customize the dash color seems to leave weird artifacts around each icon with brown color.

I am using Arch linux gnome unstable repo.

sergio-costas · 2024-03-19T16:49:36Z

@DScalpel I can't reproduce your bug... Did you update to the last version of THIS branch?

bam80 · 2024-03-19T17:58:06Z

Thanks for the extension update.

It wasn't updated yet, right? I see no new releases.

ghost · 2024-03-19T18:24:35Z

@sergio-costas
Hi, Sorry for bad bug report.

Can confirm it is working fine.

Calosis · 2024-03-19T19:17:32Z

The dots are still misplaced (in GNOME 46 only?):

Can confirm, I'm hitting this bug currently.

vanvugt · 2024-03-20T02:15:55Z

@vanvugt But, if I get it right, the patch for the dot problem is for Gnome Shell itself...

That's a slightly different bug where the gap exists but is only half the correct size. Here however, the gap does not exist (or has negative spacing?). Try it on GNOME 46 again...

vanvugt · 2024-03-20T03:12:43Z

Merged, but the dot bug on GNOME 46 is unresolved still. So it's not ready for release but at least we can all work more efficiently by focussing on the master branch.

Did this get addressed? I'm still seeing it on my system, I'm happy to file a bug if that's not expected or tracked somewhere already :)

I already have Gnome 46. So I think you can download it.

vanvugt · 2024-03-25T01:36:09Z

dash-to-dock for GNOME 46 has not been released yet. Most likely because there are other issues we'd still like to fix, and we're working on other projects too.
