Massive update! Love the QOL fixes.

This is unique! Can't wait to experiment with it:

Transparency is now supported in background images, falling back to the fixed color or gradient behind it.

I like the horizontal volume slider 👍️
Not sure if the "+" and "-" buttons are needed. Maybe put the mute and settings next to the volume slider to make the popover more compact 💡

    THIS is way cool:

    thank you.
    Also:
    "Drag & Drop support will be added in 1.1"

    ANTICIPATION X10! Full steam ahead🙂

    The cursor hand shape when hovering over the icon:

    Am I only one think its weird? (I am not talking about the cursor theme)

      algent no, its not about theme, the cursor shouldn't change.

      Sorry, I don't have an old Budgie, so here is a Windows 10 gif 😅

          Solarmass no, its not about theme, the cursor shouldn't change.

          I have it change so it's more obvious that it is clickable. The default icon theme is Papirus so that is what it's tested against, where the hand doesn't look like it is "grabbing" but rather pointing. No different to how links on a page typically change to a pointer cursor.

              @JoshStrobl I recently did a software update last week and again today and ever since I have lost my desktop icon view. Is there a way to get it back? I have the Desktop Icons toggled in the Budgie Desktop Settings but no luck/response. I am new to Linux/Solus and have loved it for the past year. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

                It changed from using Nautilus to Budgie Desktop View so you need to re-enable it by flipping the switch again.

                    JoshStrobl I flipped multiple times and restarted with it switched on and off. Still no change or response.

                        I would turn it on then check via ps -aux | grep 'budgie-desktop-view' to see if the process is running. Additionally check that you have budgie-desktop-view installed (you should, it's a rundep).

                        If the us.getsol.budgie-desktop-view binary isn't running for some reason, I'd double check to see if you have broken packages, we have a command at the top of our General Troubleshooting Help Center article for that, and run it from the Terminal to see if you happen to have any items that may not be playing nice with the implementation. I know there is an issue currently filed regarding it.

                            JoshStrobl less fine motor controls wanted to easily (and gradually) change their volume.

                            They are very nice for that, indeed.

                              Is it possible to revert back to the previous program that controls the desktop icons' behaviour?

                                JoshStrobl That was the previous version of Nautilus, as explained in both our roundup blog post and this Budgie one. Budgie Desktop View is the way forward.

                                Since they, you know, removed the feature from Nautilus ages ago. Holding back Nautilus indefinitely just isn't feasible.
