[Alberto Aldegheri]

Thank's to mhr3's idea: "use separators tho style Lucido"

The new Lucido style is here!
We get rid of stripe width!
Align controls only align like it should be :)

Stripe-Style added to non-expanded mode too :)

I need some review on how are managed separators from Lucido bg

Fix to a bug when changing corner radius

[Michal Hruby (mhr3)]

Ok, there'll be many points here, but here we go:

1) Please add curly brackets to all ifs (& elses) per code guidelines (the one-liners).
2) awn_background_lucido_redraw - please add variables for AwnBackgroundLucidoPrivate and AwnBackground, everything caps looks just strange...
3) _init_positions - remove 239-240 - it's init, so the assumption that you need to free something is wrong (otherwise it's not really init)
4) 315: starting a timer in init method is suspicious, ideally it should be started only once you know that you need to animate.
5) 1082: shouldn't the value be 10?
6) 1224: What's the 10000?
7) I still don't like the "transparent" property, I suggest connecting to expose event instead of setting this property, since you mentioned you don't want to add panel-style switch in Separator's expose.
8) Revert 1436 & 1442.

Oh, and 1477 is unnecessary.

Ok..

You're right..

> 5) 1082: shouldn't the value be 10?
Not in that case: if the first applet is a separator, that separator acts like a "background changer". If you put a separator in first position, the curve starts from bottom, otherwise from top.
> 6) 1224: What's the 10000?
It can be changed to : if (expand) w = -w; it's just for give "expand" a great importance in the "w" calculation.

I mentioned I do want to add style switches to Separator :)
So.. what to do now?

Ok

Add panel-style property to Separators and have AppletManager update it.

Revert all animation changes for getting back stability. Animation -for now and for me- cant work. Feel free to fork rev 721.

723. By Alberto <alby@CASA> on 2010-06-08

Merge with lp:awn

724. By Alberto <alby@CASA> on 2010-06-08

Minor code restyling

Fix to shape mask

728. By Alberto <alby@CASA> on 2010-06-18

Bug fixes to an old bug in cairo-utils: rounded_rect. Rect explode if radius is bigger than available space. Consecutive fix to highlights. Simplify and speedup to Edgy code. Bugfix to 3D style, not listening on corner-radius changes. Fix on Lucdio shape mask.

729. By Alberto <alby@CASA> on 2010-06-18

3D style rewritten. Now full customizable.

730. By Alberto <alby@CASA> on 2010-06-18

Animation added to Lucido. There are some minor glitches sometime...

741. By Alberto <alby@CASA> on 2010-06-29

A little speedup

742. By Alberto <alby@CASA> on 2010-07-01

Shit. I've forgot this.

743. By Alberto <alby@CASA> on 2010-07-05

More consistent with other style engines

744. By Alberto <alby@CASA> on 2010-07-05

Huge speedup and cleanup. Fixed an old bug. Now listening on applets position change.

745. By Alberto <alby@CASA> on 2010-07-05
