Full Changelog: v1.3.5...v1.3.6
NorviOS 1.3.5
- The suite links at the foot of the README point to Indigo, the new name of
Swiss UI.
NorviOS 1.3.4
1.3.4
- The README shows how to make a drawer in the launcher: right-click, New
Drawer, name it, drag apps onto it.
1.3.3
- The README shows XDock's app launcher — opening it from the dock, All Apps,
and search — which the earlier screenshots left out.
1.3.2
- The workspace-switching animation shows the same glass Files window on
every workspace. Its Media workspace had opened an empty folder, and GNOME's
"Folder is Empty" page paints its own opaque background, so it looked like a
different theme.
1.3.1
- The screenshots now show the whole NorviOS desktop — XDock, the Space Bar
workspaces, Transparent Top Bar, GEweather, the lock screen and the
power-only system menu — instead of a stock Ubuntu desktop with this
repository's branding on it. All were captured on a fresh Ubuntu 26.04
virtual machine with nothing personal in them. - The README names every extension on screen, says which are forks and of
what, and says plainly that they are not published yet. - No installer or stylesheet changed.
1.3.1–1.3.3 were not published separately; their changes ship here.
NorviOS 1.3.0
- First public release, on GitHub, under the name NorviOS.
- The window glass now works on a fresh machine. Blur my Shell ships with
application blur off, so the desktop installer turns it on, and sets the
window opacity to 255 so that the stylesheet alone decides what is
translucent and text stays fully opaque. Both values are recorded first and
restored on--uninstall. Earlier releases relied on blur already being on. - Upgrading keeps
--uninstallexact: a record written by an earlier release
gains the two new keys at the values they hold before this release changes
them, and the record is rewritten in one rename. - The desktop installer also finds a Blur my Shell installed system-wide, not
only one under your home directory. - The list of running GTK3 processes printed after an install now says that
background services in it have no window and can be ignored. - Verified end to end on a clean Ubuntu 26.04 virtual machine: boot splash,
login screen, About logo, glass, and both uninstallers. - Licence and provenance: GPL-3.0-or-later for the code, with the NorviTech
artwork under its own terms inNOTICE. - Community files, issue forms, a GitHub CI workflow (contrast check,
installer tests, shellcheck), and the design notes moved from the README to
docs/how-it-works.md.
