The new trend these days seems to be "place a shelf on top of the
screen", in that case your desktop icons will get under that shelf and
looks annoying, people laugh at E users that use that :-D (fortunately
I'm the one that usually laugh...)
Fixed, but possible other places to be fixed as well. If one wants to
avoid the shelves, use the e_zone_useful_geometry_get().
e_zone now emits E_EVENT_ZONE_MOVE_RESIZE when the useful geometry
becomes dirty. Maybe it is worth to add a new signal, but I'm reusing
it until someone complains.

For corner shelves, detect movement in corner windows
Use ev->root.{x,y} as event coordinates, we do not care where the mouse
moves within the edge windows.
Convenience function for window -> edge detection.

Previously all windows always existed, and edge bindings showed/hided
windows as needed. And e_zone_flip_win_disable/ e_zone_flip_win_restore
f**k'ed this up.
Will fix bug #483 soon.
SVN revision: 45366
put the edge windows on the correct layers
allow edge click bindings
use actions for auto-hide shelves
toggling auto-hide will cause edge event windows to show/hide if necessary

The option can currently be activated from Virtual Desktops Settings -> Advanced. A better home and preview would be better for these settings.
In more detail, this option can make a wallpaper, larger than the geometry of the zone, scroll appropriately with each desk change. Consider a nice panorama picture, which is as wide as the total desks' width. Then, at most, E will scroll the background by 1 / (number of desks) for each desk change. The direction of the scrolling is dependent on the desk change itself. Also, the user can specify a coefficient of maximum scrolling for each axis. If the coefficient is 0, the wallpaper will not move.
More advanced animations can be constructed with edje. The data item "directional_freedom" "(1|0) (1|0)" can toggle the actual wallpaper scrolling done by E for each axis. A message with the current x/y position, panning w|h, and zone w|h is sent to the background edje with each desk change animation tick. An example embryo script that handles the message, and changes a hypothetical "a1" part in the "e/desktop/background" group is shown below:
public message(Msg_Type:type, id, ...) {
if (type == MSG_INT_SET) {
new x = getarg(2);
new y = getarg(3);
// new max_x = getarg(4);
// new max_y = getarg(5);
// new w = getarg(6);
// new h = getarg(7);
custom_state(PART:"a1", "default", 0.0);
set_state_val(PART:"a1", STATE_FILL_POS, 0.0, 0.0, -x / 4, -y / 4);
set_state(PART:"a1", "custom", 0.0);
}
}

* e_border_center() will center window in a better way, accounting
the shelves/panels instead of just centering on the screen. This is
better and most noticeable if screens are small and a big shelf on
just one edge.
* e_border_move_without_border(), e_border_resize_without_border()
and e_border_move_resize_without_border() will assume the given
values do not acount border/decorations (client_inset) and will do
automatically. As stated in documentation, this is specially useful
when it is a new client and thus have no decorations when it is
positioned, when decorations are added window would be placed at
wrong position. One can try this by adding efwin window overflowing
the bottom-right corner, closing it and when reopen fileman would
try to make it inside the screen, this would not work well with
part of the window still being outside.
* e_win_move(), e_win_resize() and e_win_move_resize() will now use
new e_border functions.

between all ecore graphic engine to ease porting of application and reduce the amount of
specific code per engine. This patch does just that.
All your application should continu to work has previously, if it's not the case

still be shown if a user clicks the mouse down while on top of one of the
edge windows.
