Ubuntu
Fix up the GNOME welcoming screencast to match the default ubuntu experience
The welcoming video doesn’t feature a dock but upstream dash interaction. Needing to programmatically changing those videos (generated via blender).
Detailed explanations:
- so, run "yelp"
- the first link is "Getting started with GNOME"
- here, you have 3 videos: Launch applications, Switch tasks…
- as you can see, those are the upstream ones, meaning, there is no dock. Aand so, the interactions should be different for ubuntu, where we have our Ubuntu Dock installed by default.
- the videos are generated using some python scripts under blender
- GNOME generates those webm from https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-getting-started-docs
- you can find the .blend file and .py script in https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-getting-started-docs/tree/animation
The task is generally to modify the videos to match default ubuntu experience so, for example, on "launching the applications" video:
- go over the dock, which is displayed by default
(no "triggering the hot top left corner, go to the dock")
also, the dock takes the whole vertical space - then, keep the rest of the video (like, click on activities and choose an app for the grid as this is valid) with full height dock.
on the second and third video, there is no scripting involved: the only change is to always show the dock (full height) on the desktop.
