Check panel autorotation availability via mutter (!766) · Merge requests · GNOME / Settings

Carlos Garnacho requested to merge wip/carlosg/centralized-panel-auto-orientation into master Jun 11, 2020

Depends on mutter!1311 (merged) and gnome-shell!1311 (merged). With mutter/gnome-shell wanting to apply more complex policies to panel autorotation, it becomes trickier for the displays panel to follow up.

Make it check the autorotation state from a new property in the DisplayConfig interface, so gnome-control-center and gnome-shell agree on the auto vs manual rotation for the builtin panel. This indirectly fixes #1018 (closed) (at least on wayland) as the mutter MR involves laptop/tablet mode in the policy.
