Five plugins each owned their own colors.toml watcher with subtly
different parsers, plus two ad-hoc per-theme override files
(notifications.json, image-picker-colors.json). This collapses all of
that into one source of truth: Commons/Color.qml watches colors.toml +
shell.toml and exposes Color.bar.*, Color.popups.*, Color.notifications.*,
Color.menu.*, Color.imagePicker.* for every surface to bind to.
shell.toml is generated by the existing template pipeline from
default/themed/shell.toml.tpl. Themes can ship their own shell.toml to
override individual keys; everything missing falls back to the
foundational palette via root.pick(). Settings panel is intentionally
not themable beyond the foundational tokens.
last-horizon and solitude ship a minimal shell.toml to preserve their
historical 'notification border matches Hyprland active border'
behavior, which previously came from parsing the theme's hyprland.conf
(now removed).
PopupCard gains a triggerMode property — "click" stays as the default
(focus-grab dismissal), "hover" skips the grab so the cursor can move
freely between the trigger and the card. PopupCard also exposes a
containsMouse alias for widgets that want to coordinate hover state.
Weather widget now shows on hover and hides 220ms after the cursor
leaves both the trigger and the popup. The redundant tooltip is gone —
the popup is the detail view. Click is still wired for refresh
(middle) and notification dump (right).
PopupCard now uses HyprlandFocusGrab so any popup in the shell closes
when the user clicks outside it (or any other window in the listed set).
Single primitive — every widget gets it for free.
Weather popup rewritten:
- Smaller cloud glyph beside the city name on one row, both vertically
centered.
- Condition string flows on its own line and wraps inside the popup.
- Refresh and wttr.in pills sit side by side instead of stacked, no
more dead vertical space.
- contentHeight tracks the actual content height so the popup is no
taller than it needs to be.
