now have a base dpi (75) which is multiplied by the scale factor and
then set in both xft.dpi and xsettings. also a checkbox to turn
setting of this on or off so e can be told to not touch these at all.
this adds a live exposé style set of windows in large mode and 2d
navigation, allows it to stay up so you can bind to a single key or
mouse button to bring up and keep thre unbtil dismissed etc. ... this
requires theme changes and for now these changes have only been added
to the flat theme branch in efl - they will become default in the
future, so dont use this and expect it to work unless you also try the
flat theme default from the flat branch in efl. see
https://phab.enlightenment.org/T6726 for details on that.
this is not complete. it has some TODO items at the top with XXX: but
.. it's good enough now to share.

@fix
now you can't make things weird by having an external lock command -
solves that unsolvable race... :) the other iseu i think is not relaed
to e and smellslike old garbage fb content either
xorg/kms/driver/kernel or something - i have seen junk onresume
sometimes but its a fb from like hours ago even so i smell it might be
that. this solves the other issue brought up by not making it possible
i've seen various people get confused as to why their screen won't
blank and never heard of anyone using offline mode. i think this can
retire and just disabkling blanking manually or as presentation/media
tools do these days... they ask to suspend screensaver anyway. yes it
also affects notifications - but that is a good question - if you want
these or not? may as well simplify.
This is currently using libinputs gesture recognition. And offers a
config screen to setup new gestures.
1. No default gesture bindings are setup
2. When libinput is not available the module is not going to be loaded,
and nothing is recognited.+
3. Only swipe gestures are recognized yet.
4. For now, you are required to be part of the input group, otherwise we cannot
get the libinput events. (See Todo 1)
5. The visual representation is not really good. In terms of UI, it is
visually showing a value coming from left to right, which is
indicating a direction, which is not always the direction of the
gesture, which is kind of bad. More improvements needed here.
Some things that still can be done:
1. The whole libinput things should be handled by elput, either with the
input group hack, or logind, or simply by root. The ideal idea would
be that e_sys is creating the elput context, which also listens for new
devices etc.. When all this is done, and it recognizes a new device, it
can simply sent a message from e_sys to e, that there is some new
device, with a opened fd. (However, this all needs to be locked up in a
way that e_sys cannot be abused)
alsoit was inaccurate reling on polling (a poller) and thus wakeups
all the time ... so use the "lock on blanking" in timers instead... :)
less complexity to deal with in config anyway.
it used ot be a separate process to run to hide e starting in the bg
on a slow hdd loading modules etc. but due to compisitng and other
changes its all internal now, so keep it on always as it guarantees a
better smoother experience with less complexity to maintain.
now it really does look for the right way to control per screen and
only use the new e_system back-end to query/list devices etc. ...
this now opens the door to adding ddc support to e_system then using
it from e_backlight.
i can't test this... yet - but this means in theory the backlight
gadget will control the backlight of the screen it is on...
new feature - polkit auth agent support partly in core (need to have
the pam setuid root auth tool respond via dbus) and partly a module
(the agent dbus protocol handling and setup as well as auth gui). this
took me a while even with all the docs to work out how polkit works...
it was really fussy and its data structs are an extra pain in the butt
to craft with eldbus, but i managed it. not everything is supported
but the core basics are there and this can be built on.
right now the gui is really basic, but does the job.
this allows for a shorter timeout when on battery vs when on ac for
backlight dimming. this is actually important so when on ac dimming
can interrupt minimally bur when on battery it can be much more
aggressive.
we dont need to delay module loading anymore so remove allof this -
priority too shouldn't be necessary as well and was just a workaround.
this remvoes all of that removing some e module api's and module
struct members as well as some global config fields. it also ensures
all config files are up to date as well.
Summary:
This patch introduce an alternative to suspend on blank.
Hibernate on blank.

now right click on any gagdte in bryce and they ALL have a menu that
allows removal of the gagdte bar or the gadget as well as access to
gadget settings AND the ability for gadgets to extendthis menu like
lunhcer does per icon. now it's standard behavior everywhere which is
much easier to use and discover. it also removes code from every
gadget to do their own "button 3" handling as its handled centrally
making the code in gadgets simpler.
this is part of my effort to improve usability (mostly discoverability
and accessibility of settings/features).
also long press left mouse gets u gadget right click menu
this has to move many modules/gadgets actions to mouse up instead of
mouse down so the bryce has a chance to trap the events first and set
hold flags. but now long press for 0.5 sec and bryce menu come sup
(with left mouse .. so touch friendly).
in addition move context menu hanbdling to e_gadget instead of in
bryce and in e_gadget. a context callback is called so different
systems can still do different things. this should probably change to
always pop up a mnenu and simple call populate callbacks for site
owner specific content.
all in all it makes the new gagdtes more consistent, easier to use
(without a right mouse button), doesn't need special action bindings
etc. etc.
so a new bug in a gpu driver. if dpms is enabled, wakeup doesn't
happen. mouse doesn't do anything, rendering doesn't happen... i can
use the keyboard and ctrl+alt+enmd restart e or killall -HUP
enlightenment and e restarts and renders ... but nothing appears.
interestingly if i let it timeout again and wake it up a second
time... things render (but e is confused it seems and mouse input
doesnt work until i restart e). it's some kind of xorg/driver bug here
with this dpms - no dpms and all is fine. all e does with regards to
dplms is enable or disbale it (and set the timeouts) so e isn't doing
antyhign special otherwise with dpms on vs off ... so somethnig deeper
down the stack here, but to get a desktop that works at least for now,
add an option to not use dpms.
Summary:
bluez4 support is now basically dead. nothing ships it anymore. bluez5
is a new api that is rather different so new code. also a new gui with
more complete features etc.
not everything is done as i'd like. need:
1. many more icons for device types (60-70 maybe?)
2. a few specific custom icons for some action buttons (like
pair/unpair)
3. icons for group headers
4. gadget status - the gagdte itself displays zero status. it's a
button to display a popup. that's all.

this fixes when you drag a wqindow to screen edge and it flips if you
use alt+drag as opposed to just dragging titlebar around without alt.
it fixes it by updating your config to allow "any modifier" for edge
flips which is actually correct.
@fix
this is actually broken, as is entire the concept of using mixed e+elm configs.
if a user manually changes the profile, e.g., for a single app, then this will
overwrite the global profile name. similarly, setting the profile in this manner
overwrites the global profile, causing all existing apps to switch to that profile
this requires we have to force dpms on to reduce power. to avoid
glitches with the pointer staying around in x we need to support
suspending it too so it hides cleanly like the screen dims or undims.
also use the new powersave freeze mode to do this.
note that i've tested this on s3 supporting laptops and non-s3 and it
"works for me". it may require more testing and work. there is more to
power saving than just this as well but for now that's out of scope as
you have to mess with linux device autosuspend timeouts and a bunch
more (wowlan ... blahblah).
i need to find the source of the intermittent wakeups too in e. there
is a long lived timeout (8-ish seconds?) but more specifically e keeps
waking up from fd's and then reading /sys stuff about battery - some
event is causing us to do this... maybe to suspend this or make
battery checking very rare when in freeze mode (or screen off) etc.
so this fixes some glitches as well as supports a new way of sleeping
"alive" when hardware literally doesnt support normal s3 sleep... so
kind of a fix with a feature.
this is an easy format string attack vector which serves no purpose
that I can fathom. the commit log where it was added it also made
no mention of this, as it was done in a seemingly-unrelated feature
addition
this removes the per desktop profile config and replaces it with a
per-screen one that is tied to a specific display so it is far more
logical than per desktop. this allows e to set up different scaling
per screen for apps that use elementary for example via this derived
profile.
this of course is slightly problematic for e itself since it now uses
elm - as this will cause e to go kind-of-crazy with differing profiles
as it fights with itself and elm if 2 screens have different profiles.
this requires elm to be fixed to allow custom profiles per window.
this also currently won't switch profile of a window when you
reconfigure screens.

Summary:
Set xkb context and keymap to Ecore_Drm.
In enlightenment (used in wayland with drm backend), keymap is used only one.
So for avoid unnecessary open keymap files, set cached context and keymap.
But for this, enlightenment must compile keymap before init ecore_drm.
So I changed booting sequence also.
Test Plan: Distinguish time between before and after during add a keyboard device.

since forever, sticky windows have not been allowed to receive focus after
various events, eg. desk flip or window close. in some workflows, however,
this may actually be desired behavior
disabled by default
fix T2837
(2) e.src(s): add keyboard.repeat_delay, keyboard.repeat_rate into e.src files
Summary:
As of now, the default values of repeat delay/rate are being set in e_comp_wl.c.
Those values need to be configurable and will be used in e_comp_wl_init().
The limit of each of the values is defined from -1 to 1000. (maximum 1s).
If one of the two is negative, it means default repeat delay/rate are going to be used.
(e.g. delay:400, rate:25)

remove several config vars in advanced performance that frankly don't
work (unless you change them int he dialog). they are not set up on
startup or not even used at all. remove things that don't work anymore!
@fix
this will allow all colorclasses present in the current theme to be edited
instead of only the hardcoded ones in the module. it will also require
completely new translations, for which translators will need to read the edc
files of the default theme (cleverly located in another repo) and provide
translations to the _translate() callback in the theme module
the editor currently lacks indicators for active/type on the colorclass
list, but this can be added in time. meanwhile, a large amount of code is
no longer duplicated or maintained in this repo
In preferences we show which external applications can be used for
setting preferences. If several desktop environments are installed, this
list will have several duplicates, as there can be many different apps
for setting a preference.
With this setting we can filter out for one desktop_environment.
@feature
@fix - this fixes T1019 - when a window is fullscreen the display just
NVER can blank no mater what. it's hrdcoded, and wrong to enforce. if
an app wants to display screensaver - there is the xscreensaver extn -
or maybe supporting an explicit property on a window would work
better, but just equating fullscreen == never blank is wrong. it's an
option now. off by default.
