remove all sound, power, network icons in mint-y-icons/panel/ (needs patches in Xfce and MATE to stop using fullcolor in panel (for MATE power manager) and notifications)
don't ship icons with generic names in /usr/share/hicolor. All icons should be prefixed (cs-, xapp-, nemo-..etc..) so they don't conflict with other packages
- in HiDPI, keyboard applet, the flags is not the proper size. Hovering it fixes it.
- mounted volume applet: no notification when unmounting (as opposed to when it's done in nemo).
- gwl: Enable "application name" label. Open FF, open at least two browser tabs. Close FF. The label slides over the icon and doesn't disappear: https://kepkuldes.com/image/UoNHl
cinnamon slow to start after boot --> delay execution of appsys/docinfo until the DE is loaded
CSD: support mouse wheel speed? Evdev scrolling distance?
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
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
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
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-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)
system:
compiler optimization: consider optimizing compiled binaries for Cinnamon/Xapps
