Improvements:

  • Changing the wallpaper or going to sleep respects the "Reduce Motion" option
  • Use appropriate drag-and-drop pointers when moving windows
  • Fix the issue when gestures in the multitasking view might stop working
  • Improve dynamic workspaces behaviour with multiple monitors
  • Updated translations
 After login there is always 2 unpopulated workspaces open. Wrong workspaces behavior Use gestures for "move to workspace" Alt + Shift unnecessarily blocked when there is only one keyboard layout Multitasking view breaks when switching displays & strange Wingpanel position Disconnecting external monitor breaks the multi-tasking view Workspace wallpaper's aspect ratio with different monitors Counter Strike 2 causes segfault in libmutter on exit Scheduled switch to dark style does not dim the wallpaper after cold reboot on elementary OS 7.1 Notifications appear in the middle of the screen

Improvements:

  • Improve handling of move-to-workspace shortcut
  • Updated translations
 Windows that start maximized or fullscreened should respect “Move windows to a new workspace” Wallpaper in workspace clone and wallpaper clone should have the same style Use dark wallpaper in dark mode when available invisible windows in multitasking view after workspace switch, if done quickly

Improvements:

  • Updated translations
 Dialog dim won't go off on gtk app PiP doesn't become visible by changing workspaces Alt+Tab switcher's background is always dark gala 7.1.0-1 crashes on Arch

Improvements:

 Accessibility grayscale and colourblind filters

Improvements:

  • Set the keyboard layout correctly at startup so that the indicator matches the selected layout
  • Fix screenshot keyboard shortcuts while in Multitasking View
  • Correctly set the active workspace highlight when entering Multitasking View and animate 1:1 with multitouch gestures
  • Update panel color after dimming the wallpaper
  • Scale rounded corners per-display
  • Support fractional scaling
  • Updated translations
 Navigate with arrow keys while holding ALT+TAB Multitasking View open/close doesn't respect animations key Enable "Alt + ~" to switch between windows of the same application Minimizing a single open application and then immediately doing alt+tab breaks the switcher and the session Issue with rounded corners of window switcher Window switcher doesn't respect animations key Docks are placed under workspaces when animating Topmost window is dimmed instead of modal's parent window

Improvements:

  • Performance improvements
  • Remove texture from Multitasking View
  • Avoid accidentally selecting windows in the window switcher
