the only way to ensure the view won't randomly become black
(probably QQuickwidget won't be fixed in qt anytime soon or
ever in 5.x lifetime due to how architecturally is)
basically systemsettings has no control of what gets loaded in,
if one other kcm will call winId(), this one will break.
BUG:341971
- align with system palette
- base color for buttons and preview individually
to create a visual gap (make them more standalone)
- downsized button config buttons to match up w/ preview
appearance (and because it was simply to huge for a desktop thing)
- upsized preview to preferably show two elements at once
(current + 2*1/2context)
- made the titlebar a visible visual element
- label the titlebar "Titlebar"
- move the (altered) hint to the drag-from area
- hint draggability with a pointing hand cursor
- less hardcoded values
- brief animations on button adding/removing

The decoration button configuration interface is merged into the QML
part using two list views (left buttons, right buttons) and a grid
view for all the available buttons.
This brings back the configuration for decoration plugins. As a change
to the old variant the configure button is moved into the list view
together with the preview. It is enabled/disabled depending on data
provided by the DecorationModel. For a plugin the DecorationModel
queries for a boolean "kcmodule" key in the metadata. For a theme it
invokes the slot hasConfiguration with the theme name which returns
whether the theme provides configuration.
The actual opening of the configuration is triggered from the
PreviewBridge, which uses the existing KPluginFactory to load the
KCModule. The decoration plugin must provide the keyword "kcmodule"
for it.
So far Aurorae is adjusted and provides configuration for the Plastik
decoration. The interaction with the configuration module works, but
the configuration itself for Plastik seems to be currently broken.
* Border Sizes
* Close menu double click
Both are added to the Settings and exposed in the decoration kcm.
As it started to no longer scale the kcm uses a ui file.
Still missing:
* buttons
* custom decoration configuration
* GHNS
* search
Adjust all components to use the QSharedPointer. Aurorae obviously has
to create a QSharedPointer, Shadow holds a QSharedPointer for the
DecorationShadow (advantage: is kept when the Decoration is destroyed),
and the KCM needs to add a property on PreviewItem to get access to the
Shadow. It's no longer a Q_PROPERTY on Decoration and we cannot re-add
it as a dynamic property (cannot be read from QML side).
Following features are supported:
* finds all plugins
** finds all themes for a theme-engine plugin
* renders previews for the plugin/themes
* loads currently used plugin/theme
* saves selected plugin/theme
* triggers config reload in KWin
Following features are currently not supported:
* Search
* Plugin configuration
* GHNS
* Button configuration
Using a QQuickPaintedItem for the rendering. The item gets the library
name from the model and loads the decoration with its own decoration
plugin. Thus each preview has its own plugin which eliminates the need to
constantly recreate the decoration as it is done with the preview.
Having a QQuickItem gives new possibilities. The item accepts hover
events and forwards them as enter and leave events to the widgets inside
the decoration. By that the mouse interaction of e.g. Oxygen is still
functional. If the decoration uses the new update approach the bridge is
forwarding the updates to the item and triggering a repaint so we even
have animations in the preview although the widget is never shown.
This introduces quite some changes. We cannot include a QQuickView
directly in the QWidget based UI as a replacement for the
QDeclarativeView used before.
Instead a QScrollArea is used as replacement for the view and a
QQuickView is embedded into a widget container in the scroll area's
view port. This allows us to keep the existing semantic of having a
native scroll bar synced with the list view. It might be an idea to
change this to QtQuickControls in future.
As the list view is now only inside the scroll area we do not need to
pass the slider width to the root context and can by that more easily
calculate the width of one decoration.
When the decoration is reset a signal is emitted that the config
might have changed which the decoration can connect to for
reloading its configuration. For this an invokable method is
added to Aurorae allowing to read a config value which just
returns the QVariant.
Proper support for border sizes are added by providing the enum
in DecorationOptions, so that QML themes can use the enum values
to decide which border size to use.
The kcm is adjusted to also support these config mechanisms and
to properly load and save the border sizes for QML based themes.
Model is extended to support QML based Aurorae themes as well
the preview is able to handle it. For this a new qml component
is added which loads the decoration preview.
Stop at bounds while flicking to have a list which behaves in a
natural way on the desktop and ensure that the scrollbar
handles cannot overshoot the list.
Thanks to Nuno for providing the QML based scrollbar. Obviously
this does not improve the consistency with other widget styles, so
a proper solution is still required.
