development: gnome47 - 2024

[qwreey]

Now, I have a new laptop. And able to develop QST

I use gnome 46.3.1 with wayland/pipewire session daily and notice that many bugs were disappeared.
Time to working on it! set up new LXC container to make develop faster

First thing I will fix:

Too many systray icons / toggles / application stream

[adeliktas]

welcome back. Would be great if you could handle #142 as well. Same solution with another box to scroll would be great for those buttons instead of removing/hiding them

[qwreey]

There were so many things to test because this extension touches the quick settings panel, which is responsible for a large part of the system. It was causing the development to be very slow.

I also had to use a virtual machine because I had to analyze error logs coming from different versions, which further slowed down development.

For that reason, I'm now working on gnome-docker to create an environment to test gnome.

One problem is that the gnome team has paid very little importance to testing.

The dbus mock you can find in the gnome source does not provide high level testing, which is why I had to implement my own pseudo dbus for NetworkManager, PowerProfile and Bluez, which is slowing down my work.

Anyway, below is what I got now, I apologize for all the delays but this was the best I could do.

Nested wayland mutter session is not solution for all situation because it's too limited (such as system dbus), and depending on host's gnome version

[ryzendew]

Could you add the Ability to make the font on the audio names bold please or to make them bigger?

[qwreey]

Now i need to implement dbus

[qwreey]

Fixed mis-sized close/expand button

Refactored notification impl => fix leak issue

Reason why 47 release delayed is to fix may leak issues (refactor)
See dev branch

[qwreey]

Closed

Won't fix: #155 Incompatible with Dash to Panel
Fixed: #154 GNOME 47 quick settings notifications have bigger buttons than what they're supposed to
Dup: #153 please update quick-settings-tweaks to be compatible with gnome 47

To Fix

#123 Error: Too many arguments to method Clutter.Actor.hide: expected 0, got 1

[qwreey]

can we get this?

[tomaswarynyca]

@qwreey could you update what is missing to be able to release a new version please?

[Scotty-Trees]

Any updates on this?

[qwreey]

What we get, in 2025

Now, it uses typescript for development, docker for testing.

WIP:

2025-01-10.00-44-46.mp4

You can scroll media section, and also quick toggles will get paged layout like this

[qwreey]

i have no idea how to implement this

[loxoron218]

Apparently neither do the GNOME devs 😆
(To be fair, it's probably an issue caused by the Arch extra repos)

[qwreey]

Current:

Screen_Recording_20250114_215300_AVNC.mp4

now, you can show toggle menu as overlay, and you can animate background

[qwreey]

prefs for animation, overlay

[qwreey]

• More animation

Screen_Recording_20250115_043332_AVNC.mp4

[ryzendew]
