shell_util_set_hidden_from_pick ()

void
shell_util_set_hidden_from_pick (ClutterActor *actor,
                                 gboolean hidden);

If hidden is TRUE, hide actor from pick even with a mode of CLUTTER_PICK_ALL; if hidden is FALSE, unhide actor .

shell_util_get_transformed_allocation ()

void
shell_util_get_transformed_allocation (ClutterActor *actor,
                                       ClutterActorBox *box);

This function is similar to a combination of clutter_actor_get_transformed_position(), and clutter_actor_get_transformed_size(), but unlike clutter_actor_get_transformed_size(), it always returns a transform of the current allocation, while clutter_actor_get_transformed_size() returns bad values (the transform of the requested size) if a relayout has been queued.

This function is more convenient to use than clutter_actor_get_abs_allocation_vertices() if no transformation is in effect and also works around limitations in the GJS binding of arrays.

shell_util_get_week_start ()

int
shell_util_get_week_start (void);

Gets the first week day for the current locale, expressed as a number in the range 0..6, representing week days from Sunday to Saturday.

shell_util_format_date ()

char *
shell_util_format_date (const char *format,
                        gint64 time_ms);

Formats a date for the current locale. This should be used instead of the Spidermonkey Date.toLocaleFormat() extension because Date.toLocaleFormat() is buggy for Unicode format strings: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=508783

shell_util_translate_time_string ()

const char *
shell_util_translate_time_string (const char *str);

Translate str according to the locale defined by LC_TIME; unlike dcgettext(), the translations is still taken from the LC_MESSAGES catalogue and not the LC_TIME one.

shell_write_string_to_stream ()

gboolean
shell_write_string_to_stream (GOutputStream *stream,
                              const char *str,
                              GError **error);

Write a string to a GOutputStream as UTF-8. This is a workaround for not having binary buffers in GJS.

shell_get_file_contents_utf8_sync ()

char *
shell_get_file_contents_utf8_sync (const char *path,
                                   GError **error);

Synchronously load the contents of a file as a NUL terminated string, validating it as UTF-8. Embedded NUL characters count as invalid content.

shell_util_wifexited ()

gboolean
shell_util_wifexited (int status,
                      int *exit);

Implements libc standard WIFEXITED, that cannot be used JS code.

shell_util_create_pixbuf_from_data ()

GdkPixbuf *
shell_util_create_pixbuf_from_data (const guchar *data,
                                    gsize len,
                                    GdkColorspace colorspace,
                                    gboolean has_alpha,
                                    int bits_per_sample,
                                    int width,
                                    int height,
                                    int rowstride);

Workaround for non-introspectability of gdk_pixbuf_from_data().

shell_util_cursor_tracker_to_clutter ()

void
shell_util_cursor_tracker_to_clutter (MetaCursorTracker *tracker,
                                      ClutterTexture *texture);

shell_util_need_background_refresh ()

gboolean
shell_util_need_background_refresh (void);

shell_util_get_content_for_window_actor ()

ClutterContent *
shell_util_get_content_for_window_actor
                               (MetaWindowActor *window_actor,
                                MetaRectangle *window_rect);

shell_util_composite_capture_images ()

cairo_surface_t *
shell_util_composite_capture_images (ClutterCapture *captures,
                                     int n_captures,
                                     int x,
                                     int y,
                                     int width,
                                     int height);
