This changes the build a lot, so I hope there are no issues. 🤞 ping @licaon-kter @linsui |

We had to use jdk 11 to build the app. It seems we can use jdk 17 now? Will you update to jdk 21? |
|
If this version is a big update you can write something for our TWIF. :) https://forum.f-droid.org/t/new-twif-submission-thread/23546/ |

Right, I understand jdk11 is going away very soon. This version builds with jdk17, but I plan to update to jdk21 in a later patch. It is a big update, so I guess a twif entry is in order. I'm ambivalent though - I don't feel like I'm good at writing stuff like that and imagine spending the entire afternoon working on a three sentence paragraph. 😆 The update adds "material you", which I guess is the most visible change. It also updates the targetSdk and migrates to androidx; no visible changes there but probably the most consequential. |
|
Then I thought you just need to highlight the material you. :) |
FYI the update deleted my widgets. Is this intentional / fixable? I know I can recreate them and I could have backed them up but it's probably still worth fixing |
|
Also how can I enable material you? |
|
Also also the moon phases widget 2×1 just doesn't work anymore |
No. The widgets themselves are actually managed by your launcher. Nothing has fundamentally changed that would remove them. Which launcher are you using?
Settings -> User Interface -> Appearance
Please file a bug report. |
|
@elydpg Confirmed that the 2x1 moon widget now displays "problem loading widget". I'll look into the reason for that asap. It would be better if problems were reported to the issue tracker though so I can manage them better. |
@elydpg ugh, I'm very sorry about this. I believe I've discovered the cause and no, breaking everyone's widgets wasn't intentional :( The code has undergone refactoring in an attempt to pay off accumulating technical debt. In particular the widget classes were reorganized into their own package (the path was changed). I believe this is the reason the widgets are suddenly gone from your launcher. The configurations themselves are still there, so a backup should still export those settings to file, but I think its probably moot since there isn't a reliable way to restore the widgets themselves (managed by the launcher). |
I don't see it?
Perhaps I'm confused as it's only in the dynamic colours and not in the UI elements? |
|
@elydpg It should be under "light theme" and "dark theme". That top spinner selects for always dark, always light, or system (switch between them). |
|
Hmm is it this then?
|
|
Yeah. I guess I should rename the option so its more recognizable. "Material You" is referred to as "Monet" through the Android docs. |
