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 users will be mucho displeased and bewildered when the bt adatper
is powered on but nothing happens... it ends up that with some bt adatpers
it will be rfkill blocked by default. this is highly unfriendly. at
least if you have bluez5 module loaded and configured the adatper to
be powered on... i see no reason why it shouldn't be unblocked if the
adatper is powered on. i have considerted making it an option but for
now can't think of good reasons to really do that.
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.
