|
||
|
||
Linux Mint 19
|
||
=============
|
||
|
||
desktop-search:
|
||
local files
|
||
web engines
|
||
recent
|
||
apps
|
||
dictionary
|
||
translations
|
||
|
||
mintwelcome:
|
||
UI revamp, guide user and hint at things he/she might want to do (codecs, popular settings, popular apps etc..)
|
||
|
||
mintreport:
|
||
detect missing l10n packages and hint at mintlocale
|
||
|
||
mintupdate:
|
||
safeguard against package removals (for instance, don't let users perform updates which would remove sensitive packages).
|
||
notice to reboot the computer when appropriate
|
||
purge old kernels? https://github.com/Pjotr123/purge-old-kernels-2
|
||
|
||
system:
|
||
compiler optimization: consider optimizing compiled binaries for Cinnamon/Xapps
|
||
|
||
cinnamon:
|
||
cinnamon slow to start after boot --> delay execution of appsys/docinfo until the DE is loaded
|
||
|
||
nemo:
|
||
Skip GVFS when possible
|
||
File search:
|
||
full-text search
|
||
async search
|
||
simplify UI/features
|
||
ability to search string within files and open xed at line number
|
||
Performance issues:
|
||
File operations:
|
||
Mouse-cursor lag
|
||
Loading views:
|
||
switching views is slower than reloading them
|
||
existing thumbs are loaded asynchronously
|
||
loading is slower than with ls (could be Gvfs, could be the way we render view in GTK. For 25k elements, 0.4s with ls, up to 6s in icon view for Nemo/Caja)
|
||
video thumbnails are blurry
|
||
|
||
Roadmap
|
||
=======
|
||
|
||
mintreport:
|
||
dmesg errors
|
||
foreign packages if pinned by mint
|
||
wrong lsb info..etc.
|
||
slow boot sequence
|
||
slow shutdown sequence
|
||
|
||
implement an alarm clock
|
||
|
||
cinnamon:
|
||
CSD: support mouse wheel speed? Evdev scrolling distance?
|
||
menu keywords: looking for display in menu shows color first
|
||
consider: notifications stay on desktop until mouse is moved + a few secs
|
||
preferences > keyboard > custom shortcuts. Used with a Spanish keyboard layout. Recorded: crtl+number and ctrl+Shift+number (e.g. ctrl+1 and ctrl+shift+1 = ctrl+!) they are recorded correctly. When using the shortcut the command defined in the shift combination is triggered with just ctrl+number (i.e. ctrl+1). The complete combination triggers nothing (i.e. ctrl+shift+1 does nothing) and the comand defined in ctrl+number can never be used. This worked in 17.3.
|
||
track/troubleshoot shutdown sequence (user should know what is happening when shutdown isn't immediate)
|
||
track/troubleshoot vsync, compositing, unredirected windows and policy
|
||
menu: consider adopting this layout (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/The-Panacea-Projects/Gnomenu/master/Screenshot.png), same as ours/mintmenu, only better.
|
||
todo list applet/desklet
|
||
calendar events applet/desklet
|
||
multiple clocks https://github.com/simonwiles/cinnamon_applets
|
||
network applet: airplane mode (quick way to rfkill all)
|
||
nemo: retire computer:/// place (which is completely useless) or revamp it into something better
|
||
alt-tab and panel use icon provided by appsys, ignoring icon set by the application itself (example: a python window using widow.set_icon_name())
|
||
actions in panel launchers aren't translated if not present in .desktop file
|
||
gnome-system-monitor moves out of place in Expo
|
||
When using Cinnamon bar at top, and secondary monitor with higher height than the main display, some apps like KDE Apps (Krita, Kdenlive) or Wine Based Apps (teamviewer) will display menus from toolbar in the wrong place. Being more specific: The menus will be displayed in the position that they should be displayed at main monitor, however in this case the window is maximized in the secondary monitor.
|
||
Is there any reason why there are two names for the same item, eg. "Trash" and "Rubbish Bin"? Would it be better to standardise on only one name?
|
||
add gnome-screenshot to panel, right-click and select "Take screenshot of a selected area". This runs gnome-screenshot -a.. it should work but it doesn't. Is it because of the panel launcher capturing the click event or something?
|
||
|
||
xapps
|
||
add an option to blank other monitors when in full screen in xviewer/xreader/pix
|
||
implement an app-sharing protocol to quickly move a document from one app to another
|
||
|
||
gestures support:
|
||
pinch:
|
||
zoom document in pix
|
||
zoom view in nemo
|
||
|
||
swipe:
|
||
previous/next document in pix
|
||
|
||
scroll:
|
||
sound-volume/seek in xplayer
|
||
|
||
click:
|
||
pause/resume in xplayer
|
||
|
||
double-click:
|
||
full-screen in xplayer
|
||
full-screen in xviewer
|
||
|
||
pix
|
||
doesn't rotate videos when playing them
|
||
vignettes should look better, and the same in all themes
|
||
support prefer-dark-themes
|
||
treeview in sidebar shows unecessary "(empty)" when dirs have no subdirs
|
||
|
||
artwork:
|
||
Tray icons are black with mint-y themes.
|
||
Mint-Y themes Shade option is unavailable
|
||
mint-x-icons: network status icons have a dark background in panel 33px and bigger (sound icon looks wrong in 41px and bigger).
|
||
mint-y The maximize/restore window control button doesn’t change visually between in maximized and restored state (default theme and Mint-Y-Dark)
|
||
|
||
R&D
|
||
===
|
||
|
||
mintupdate:
|
||
prompt for reboot after kernel install?
|
||
|
||
nemo:
|
||
remove duplication between Eject and Safely Remove (for removable devices).
|
||
|
||
system
|
||
consider enabling recommends
|
||
|
||
review logind.conf changes in:
|
||
MATE
|
||
Xfce
|
||
KDE
|
||
|
||
ubiquity:
|
||
inhibit sessions via libxapp (need to do it in KDE too)
|
||
|
||
libindicator++?
|
||
client-rendered icon/menu (ala libindicator)
|
||
support all the features from GTK statusicon (tooltips, left/right clicks etc..)
|
||
|
||
use aptdaemon?
|
||
aptdaemon doesn't work in LMDE and is being abandoned upstream
|
||
in mintupdate, remove dep on synaptic, remove admin rights for checkAPT.py
|
||
in mintwelcome and codec menu entry, switch from apturl to aptdaemon
|
||
in mintsources, remove dep on synaptic
|
||
remove synaptic from default selection
|
||
remove synaptic from mintmenu's favorites
|
||
|
||
network discovery:
|
||
easy out-of-the-box interactions (messaging/presence/file-sharing) over the LAN
|
||
|
||
windows compatibility layer:
|
||
seamless wine integration
|
||
|
||
HiDPI support:
|
||
upstream apps using GTK2: Gimp, Hexchat, VLC, Pidgin, Tomboy.
|
||
mint projects using GTK2: gksu
|
||
|
||
LMDE 3
|
||
======
|
||
|
||
gnome-calculator app title is "gnome-calculator"
|
||
live-installer should show partition labels
