Problem

It's currently quite hard to debug wingpanel indicators as there are many indicators that add log messages. There isn't a good way to filter this to a specific indicator.

Proposal

We could define log domains:
https://developer.gnome.org/glib/stable/glib-Message-Logging.html#log-domains

This enables filtering log messages using G_MESSAGES_DEBUG, to do do something like the following to only get the logs from a specific indicator and the wingpanel:

G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=io.elementary.wingpanel.bluetooth wingpanel

Prior Art

We've added this to the bluetooth indicator
elementary/wingpanel-indicator-bluetooth#81

Feature

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

As a visually disabled user I often want to be able to select some text and display it in very large type on the screen.

Describe the solution you'd like

For example, I select a phone number in an email, hit the app launcher hotkey, choose the "Large Text" action and step away from the screen to actually make the phone call.

Existing work

Alfred on OSX has this feature, and due to the way OSX works it integrates anywhere you can select text or a text blob.

For instance, in the Contacts app, you can select a phone number, hit the Alfred hot key, and see it in very large text in the center of the screen.

Here is the description of this feature from the Alfred Site
Describe alternatives you've considered

Having this accessible from the app launcher hot key seems like a natural fit given that the launcher already has similar features like calculation mode for numbers, but I'm not married to that. Anything that would integrate with as many apps as possible given Linux/Gnome's architectural limitations (e.g. there's no AppleEvents/Open Scripting Architecture in Gnome that I know of).

Additional context

Prerequisites

• I have searched open and closed issues for duplicates.

Describe the bug

[+] and [-] buttons are blurry when running HiDPI.

Expected behavior

I expect the buttons to not be so blurry.

Screenshots or screen recordings

Platform Information

• Juno
• Virtual machine in VMware Fusion on Mac OS 10.9

Please check what applies:

• I'm using the latest version from git that I've manually compiled
• I'm using the latest released stable version

Add support for gtk3 org.gnome.desktop.interface text-scaling-factor

I'm not even seeing the .so in a elementary vm I'm using.

The current interface for this was removed from GSD: GNOME/gnome-settings-daemon@9d5e1d9

And added to GNOME Shell: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/474/diffs

Problem

It's been pointed out that turning on the screen reader via a keyboard shortcut is very important for users with limited vision. It's possible to do this, but the keyboard shortcut is buried in System Settings, which is not accessible during installation or at the greeter.

Proposal

We should include the keyboard shorcut for enabling the screen reader here in the a11y indicator to surface it much quicker

What it says on the tin

Update the CI process for wingpanel-indicator-a11y to include a vala-lint step.

What it says on the tin ;-)

Hi. I'm packaging this for void-linux. But they only accept release versions of software. So please release a new version.

Indicator should respect "always_show_universal_access_status" from the "org.gnome.desktop.a11y" dconf key (For the new a11y plug)
