2093d1c9c7 Show OSD and sync touchpad steps when scrolling bar widgets (audio, monitor) (#6421)
* Show OSD and sync touchpad steps when scrolling bar widgets

Scrolling the volume or brightness icon in the bar changed the value
directly without ever calling omarchy-osd, so only the keyboard media
keys showed the popup. On top of that, a touchpad's stream of many
small wheel events per finger-drag wasn't matched to a mouse's single
±120 notch per click, so touchpad scrolling felt uncoordinated and
uneven next to the keyboard/mouse behavior.

- shell/plugins/panels/audio/Panel.qml: accumulate raw wheel delta and
  only apply a step once it crosses a full mouse-notch's worth, so
  touchpad and mouse move the volume in identical 5% increments, and
  ping the OSD each time a step actually lands.
- shell/plugins/panels/monitor/Panel.qml: same accumulator for
  brightness, with a 5% floor so scrolling down can never blank the
  screen.
- shell/plugins/osd/Osd.qml: animate the progress bar's width instead
  of snapping, so successive steps glide smoothly.

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 always enabled; omarchy.bar is the default bar option and becomes inactive only while a third-party 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.
