Thanks, Michele, for bringing this up.

I hope Jasper or someone else will be able to clarify this.

Vadim.

Hi,

Whilst trying to keep updated the dash-to-dock extension for  Gnome-Shell
3.9 I stumble on the removing of the affectsInputRegion parameter.  I'm
wondering if the solution suggested by Vadim - using the private method
layoutManager._trackActor instead of layoutManager.trackChrome to force the
tracking of an actor whose parent is not tracked - is correct or not. Can
doing this cause any problem?

Hi Jasper,

Yes, I kind of do. The parent actor is GenericContainer, and its position
is fixed. Its children are placed inside the parent at som
 e
positions. I
just searched through my installed extensions and found out that, for
example, Dash to Dock uses similar concept to position the dash: there is
St.Bin with a child positioned vertically at center, and St.Bin is added
using addChrome with affectsInputRegion = false, while for its child
trackChrome with affectInputRegion = true is called.

Probably, it is the right decision to simplify the whole thing about input
regions. May be if, for example, trackChrome could add a region that is a
descendant of Main.uiGroup but has no tracked ancestors, that would solve
the problem.

As I can see right now when trackChrome(B) is called, it looks for B's
an
 cestor
A that is already being tracked. Then the only thing I see how A
is used is to copy A's params to B -- those that are not specified for B
directly. Is there another thing I am missing why trackChrome would require
such ancestor?

Vadim.

I had forgotten the "minimize" key, thanks!

hi;

have you tried using Super + H? it's usually faster than clicking a
minimize button.

ciao,
Emmanuele.

Minimization doesn't work very well in GNOME 3 -- I'd recommend making
the most of your infinite workspaces -- but if you want the button back,
just install gnome-tweak-tool.  Look under "Shell" -> "arrangement of
buttons on the titlebar"
They sure did improve the tweak tool since I last looked at it.... Thanks
for the tip. I rarely feel like I NEED minimize, but when I do, I really
want it.
