--preload registers the resident GTK launcher and realizes its window
without showing it, so the first shortcut opens it as fast as later
ones. When a launcher is already running it exits without activating
it.
The application hold now happens in startup, which only the primary
instance runs. Taken before registration, it also kept every remote
invocation alive after it had forwarded its activation.
A wrapping label asks for its whole text on one line as its natural
width, so a long location in the preview pane widened it, squeezed the
results list and stretched the window. Cap the preview labels' natural
width, limit detail values to three lines with a tooltip for the full
location, and keep the pane from taking extra width.
The launcher (pdfs-prompt) now follows the app's theme: the theme code
moved into a shared theme.rs, the prompt's stylesheet lives in
resources/prompt.css on the libadwaita palette, the Proton-purple accent
pin is gone, and every activation re-reads the Proton theme and open_with
settings so changes in the app apply without restarting the launcher.
The window is rebuilt in src/hud/:
- one list with Recent, Pinned and Best matches sections; a click
selects, a double-click or Enter opens, focus stays in the entry
- rows show a thumbnail, the name with its matched characters in bold,
location, sync badge, size and age
- a preview pane with a large thumbnail, type, size, modified date,
location and availability, plus Open (Enter), Show in Folder
(Ctrl+Enter, via FileManager1) and Copy Path (Ctrl+C / Ctrl+Shift+C)
- thumbnails from the freedesktop cache, local decoding (written back
to the shared cache) or the daemon, on two worker threads
- a history of opened files that fills the Recent section and adds a
frecency bonus to search ranking
- the mount check before opening a Drive file runs off the main thread
with a 2 s timeout, and Escape cancels a slow open
- rows can be dragged out as files
- the search debounce drops to 80 ms
New strings are translated in every catalog.
