v0.6.0-alpha01

What's changed

FlorisImeWindow changes (#3174)

• Add floating window support by @lm41 and @patrickgold

Notes

• The fontScale may be messed up for certain sizes (see #3180)
• Same goes for the key spacing - it does not scale with the keyboard size, so this may look strange on certain near-min/near-max sizes
• Both issues above will need changes, but we want user feedback for them to implement this properly (if you have some feedback, don't hesitate to comment in the linked issue)

Preferences obsoleted by above changes and removed

• Keyboard > Layout
  • One-handed mode (is now compact mode within keyboard UI/Smartbar actions)
  • One-handed mode keyboard width (is now resized using the Smartbar resize action)
  • Keyboard height (is now resized using the Smartbar resize action)
  • Bottom offset (is now adjusted using the Smartbar resize action)

UI element changes

• Changes for window:
  • Add support for shadow-color
  • Add support for shadow-elevation
  • Add support for shape
• Add window-inner
  • The difference between window and window-inner is that window-inner is the keyboard suface without the paddings from resize mode, whereas window is the keyboard surface with the resize paddings
• Add window-move-handle
• Add window-resize-overlay-fixed
• Add window-resize-handle
• Add window-resize-action
• Add floating-dock-to-fixed-indicator
• Add windowmode attribute
  • Possible values are fixed and floating
  • Applies to elements window, window-move-handle, window-resize-handle, window-resize-action

Important

Custom themes may not provide styles for the newly added elements, and these elements then look broken.

Theme authors: please have a look at the above provided changelog / default themes on how to properly style the new elements.
