New Features
- New layout switcher
The layout switcher is now a context menu with a configurable list of layout available tweak-able at the workspace level.
You can use your mouse-wheel to quickly switch among the enabled layouts
You can now configure the number of column displayed in the split layout - Applications launcher improvements
The launcher now correctly updates when a new application is installed and the results can be scrolled with the navigation key. - New Tooltips
You can now see properly cropped text on the application launcher or application tabs. - Scroll on panels
You can now navigate among Application or Workspace by scrolling among panels. - New Insert Window workflow
When a new window is opened while focusing a window, the new window is inserted after the focused one. If the newly created window is closed the focus automatically return to the previous window. To allow much more predictable behavior when using software that open side windows.
Bug fixes
- Modals fixes
The dialogs / modals / pop ups should now be handled much better. You can now move them independently above their parent and the "always above" kind of modals should now properly behave. - Application that close on startup Some applications that launched multiple of dialogs / splashscreen on startup could crash on startup like Intellij, Android Studio, Steam... That's should be fixed
- 3.38 fixes
Plenty of fixes for 3.38 compatibility, persistence should restore correctly all previous workspace & Material Shell is now properly enabled after unlocking the session. - Primary color can now be tweaked properly
Compatible GNOME Shell 3.34, 3.36, 3.38
