5b2c02dee3 Fix unclickable tray submenus by drilling down inside the popup (#6703)
* Fix unclickable tray submenus by drilling down inside the popup

Clicking a tray menu entry that has children was a silent no-op: the
row called QsMenuEntry.display(), which renders a *platform* menu, and
Quickshell refuses that unless the shell root sets `//@ pragma
UseQApplication` -- shell.qml does not. The log shows "Cannot display
PlatformMenuEntry as quickshell was not started in QApplication mode"
and nothing opens. Apps whose whole menu is submenus, like
radiotray-ng's station list, were unusable.

Adding the pragma would be the wrong fix: it switches the entire shell
from QGuiApplication to QApplication, dragging QtWidgets into the
process and changing application-class behavior for the sake of one
popup -- which would then render as an unstyled platform menu beside
omarchy's own popup styling anyway.

Instead, submenus drill down inside the existing popup. A child
QsMenuEntry inherits QsMenuHandle, so it can feed a nested QsMenuOpener
and render through the same row delegate. Each level keeps its own live
opener on a stack -- a child entry is owned by its parent opener's
model, so collapsing to a single reassigned opener would destroy the
very entry being displayed. A back header row walks out one level; at
the root the menu renders exactly as before, and items without a
DBusMenu still use the platform fallback.

* Destroy submenu openers deepest-first and reset before switching items

resetTrayMenu() destroyed openers front-to-back and only cleared
submenuStack afterward. A deeper opener's menu entry is owned by its
parent's children model, so destroying the parent first could
invalidate an entry a still-live child opener referenced. Clear the
stack before tearing anything down, then destroy deepest-first so a
child is always gone before the parent whose model owns its entry.

openTrayMenu() reassigned activeTrayItem before calling resetTrayMenu().
trayMenuOpener.menu binds to activeTrayItem.menu, so that reassignment
immediately swaps what the root opener's children expose -- invalidating
entries any live submenu opener still referenced, before resetTrayMenu()
got a chance to tear them down. Reset first, then switch items.

Thanks @Copilot for catching both.

* Defer submenu reset until the popup's fade-out actually finishes

onTrayMenuOpenChanged reset the submenu stack the instant trayMenuOpen
went false, but the popup stays visible for the whole 140ms opacity
fade (PopupCard's own visible: open || card.opacity > 0) -- dismissing
from a submenu flashed the root menu mid-fade, and could resize or
reposition the fading popup if the two have different geometry.

Moved the reset to trayMenuPopup's own onVisibleChanged, which only
fires once the fade has genuinely completed. Switching to a different
tray item is unaffected: openTrayMenu() already resets explicitly
before assigning the new item, independent of whether the popup ever
dips to invisible (rapid reopen mid-fade never does).

Thanks @Copilot for catching this.

* Ignore tray menu clicks for a beat after changing submenu level

Changing level swaps the Repeater's model, which rebuilds the row
delegates synchronously -- a fresh row lands under a cursor that hasn't
moved. Submenu clicks used to be silent no-ops, which trained users to
click them twice, so that second click now fires whatever entry took
the spot. On radiotray-ng that means an accidental station switch.

Gate row and back-header clicks for 250ms after each level change. A
deliberate follow-up click is slower than that; a double-click is not.

* Pin the submenu back header above the scrolling menu rows

The back header lived inside the Flickable's Column, so in a submenu
taller than the 420px cap -- exactly the long station list this
drill-down exists for -- scrolling down pushed the only way back off
screen, with no Escape or right-click alternative.

Move it into a pinned Column above the Flickable and account for its
height in the popup's contentHeight.

* Reset the tray menu scroll offset when the drill-down is torn down

Flickable keeps its contentY across a model swap whenever the new
content is still tall enough to hold it. A menu dismissed while
scrolled therefore reopened part-way down with its first entries off
screen: reproducible on any tray app whose root menu outgrows the
420px cap, and now reachable on every app once a long submenu has
been scrolled.

Zero the offset in resetTrayMenu(), which runs both on teardown and
before switching items.

First-party plugins

These plugins ship with Omarchy and are discovered by the shell at startup. They use the same manifest.json contract as third-party plugins; the only difference is that the shell flags them with __isFirstParty: true. First-party non-bar plugins are enabled unless listed in disabledPlugins[]; omarchy.bar is the default bar option and becomes inactive only while another kind: "bar" plugin is selected. Services and keep-loaded panels are mounted at startup; other panels, overlays, and menus are loaded on demand.

User-installed plugins live alongside these conceptually but on disk under ~/.config/omarchy/plugins/<plugin-id>/ rather than in this directory.

First-party bar-only widgets also carry manifests next to their QML files, e.g. bar/widgets/Workspaces.manifest.json. Rich popup widgets live in their own plugin directories, each with its own manifest.json.

Bar

The built-in status bar and default full-bar option. Layout lives in the top-level bar: subtree of ~/.config/omarchy/shell.json (with the shell providing config/omarchy/shell.json when the user has no file). See bar/README.md for the widget catalogue and customization schema.

Image picker

Fullscreen image-grid selector overlay. Used by omarchy-menu-images (wallpaper picker) and omarchy-theme-switcher (theme picker) and any other caller that wants to present a directory of images with previews.

Two ways to drive it:

  • Shell-level summon: omarchy-shell shell summon omarchy.image-picker '<jsonPayload>'. The payload can carry imageDirs, imageRows, selectedImage, selectionFile, doneFile, showLabels, filterable. Best for in-shell callers that already speak JSON.
  • Direct IPC target: omarchy-shell image-selector open <imageDirs> <imageRowsB64> <selectedImage> <selectionFile> <doneFile> <showLabels> <filterable>. Positional args; imageRowsB64 is base64-encoded so embedded newlines / tabs survive the bash argv handoff. This is what omarchy-menu-images uses. Colors come from the central shell theme singleton; there is no per-call override surface.

The selection round-trip remains file-based: callers create a selection_file and done_file (both mktemp), pass the paths, and poll done_file for existence. The plugin writes the chosen path into selection_file and touches done_file when it's done. cancel IPC clears it without writing a selection.

The plugin has keepLoaded: true so the layer-shell window survives between summons within a single shell session.

Lock screen

Session-lock surface using Quickshell's native WlSessionLock and two separate PAM services: omarchy-lock-password for password auth and, only when fingerprints are enrolled, omarchy-lock-fingerprint for fingerprint auth. It mirrors the previous lock screen field dimensions, colors, blurred wallpaper, placeholder, and Hyprland-driven corners.

Polkit agent

Theme-aware authentication dialog for privileged actions. It uses Quickshell's native Quickshell.Services.Polkit.PolkitAgent backend and runs inside the long-lived omarchy-shell process, replacing the old polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1 autostart.

Omarchy menu

Quickshell-powered Omarchy command menu. The menu UI lives in menu/Menu.qml as a first-party menu plugin and is summoned through the shell (omarchy-shell shell summon omarchy.menu ...), so it shares the long-running omarchy-shell process instead of starting a second Quickshell instance.

The menu definition lives outside the shell host code:

  • defaults: default/omarchy/omarchy-menu.jsonc
  • user extensions: ~/.config/omarchy/extensions/omarchy-menu.jsonc

The shell parses both JSONC files at startup (with watchChanges: true so edits take effect without a restart), evaluates when: / checked: bash expressions in a single batched subprocess, and executes the selected action: string directly via Quickshell.execDetached. The long-running shell process keeps the parsed menu in memory, so the keybind → IPC → visible path costs ~30ms cold.
