V14a1 alpha

V14a1 alpha

Edit: V14a2 to fix some urgent bugs and crashes.

Today I’m announcing the release of the first alpha for the upcoming V14 🙂

It consists in a huge architecture overhaul. The aim is to remove some longstanding limitations and bugs, improve efficiency in some areas and allow upcoming evolutions. It took me a lot of time to release it, but I think it works reasonably well now.

In spite of the massive amount of code changes, my aim is that V14 will remain as most compatible as possible with V12.

There are some differences though 😉 Please read http://www.lightninglauncher.com/wordpress/changes-beteen-v12-9-1-and-v14/ for the exact list.

One particular change is the ability to display the same content in multiple locations. To explain this, let’s imagine there’s a complex panel you would like to see on multiple desktops. With v12 you need to copy it. Subsequent changes to this panel on one desktop will have to be repeated on all desktops. With v14 it is possible to link the content. In other words, any change made to one version will be immediately available to all other versions.

There are more uses for this feature: the content of a folder can be displayed in a panel (and vice versa), the content of the app drawer can be displayed in a panel (that is: in a desktop), it is possible to quickly switch the content of a panel, and so on.

At the moment the feature can only be accessed through script (see Folder/Panel.setContainerId) but this API has no restriction, meaning that all kind of funny/weird/insane stuff is possible. Including recursion and the aforementioned app drawer in desktop… Please use with care… Ahem, no, don’t use with care, let’s play with it, it’s fun and as with all new strange feature, I’m eager to see what you can do with it!

As this is an alpha, please be aware that it may be unstable, corrupt your setup or crash. Make sure you have a backup and that you are able to restore the stable version if needed.

Enjoy!
