elementary OS 6 是其 5.x 系列经过几年更新后的一次重大升级。


虽然 5.x 系列也有许多功能更新和改进，但 [elementary OS 6](https://news.itsfoss.com/elementary-os-6-release/) 的努力成果看起来令人兴奋。


在这里，让我们来看看 elementary OS 6 引入的所有新功能和变化。


### 1、暗黑风格及强调色


![](/data/attachment/album/202108/13/142149c5kte7rfr9eh9kth.jpg)


[elementary OS](https://elementary.io) 暗黑风格的主题与现在主流的工作方式类似，是一种选择的偏好。你可以在安装 elementary OS 6 之后，在欢迎屏幕上选择它。


虽然增加暗黑模式听起来像是小事一桩，但他们似乎投入了大量的精力来提供一个整体一致的暗黑模式体验。


所有的第一方应用程序都无缝地支持暗黑风格和浅色主题。


elementary OS 还让应用开发者在 elementary OS 6 中遵照用户的偏好。因此，如果用户喜欢暗黑模式或浅色模式，应用程序就可以适应这种模式。


伴随着新的强调色的出现，还有一个自动的强调色偏好，可以从你当前的壁纸中挑选出强调的颜色。


### 2、改进的通知及重新设计的通知中心


通知现在支持图标徽章和行动按钮，这应该能提供更好的体验。

这可以让你快速打开链接、标记一条消息已读，以及其他几种可能的操作。


紧急通知有了新的外观和独特的声音，以帮助你识别它们。


除了通知方面的改进，通知中心也进行了改造，使其看起来更好，并可以对多个通知进行清理。


### 3、在线账户


终于，在 elementary OS 6 中，你能够从系统设置中添加在线账户了。


一旦登录，你的数据将在支持的系统应用程序（如日历、任务）中同步。


它也会显示在系统托盘通知中。


### 4、第一方 Flatpak 应用及权限查看


为了提高整个平台的隐私和安全，elementary OS 6 采用了优先选择 Flatpak 的方式。


Elementary OS 现在有自己的应用中心 Flatpak 资源库。一些默认的应用程序以 Flatpak 包的形式出现，应用中心列出的所有应用程序也都有 Flatpak。


总的来说，这意味着更好的沙盒体验，你的所有应用程序将保持相互隔离，不会访问你的敏感数据。

而且，最重要的是，elementary OS 6 增加了“门户”功能，应用程序会请求权限，以访问你的文件或启动另一个应用程序。


你还可以从系统设置中控制所有的权限。


### 5、多点触控手势


![](/data/attachment/album/202108/13/142157aqckyu9k0iqkqksl.png)


对于笔记本电脑和触摸板用户来说，新的多点触控手势将变得非常方便。


从访问多任务视图到浏览工作区，你都可以用多点触摸手势来完成。


不仅仅局限于桌面上的某些功能，你还可以与通知互动、滑过应用程序，并可以通过新的多点触控手势获得全系统的顺滑体验。


你可以自定义手势或从系统设置下的手势部分了解更多信息。


### 6、屏幕盾牌


在 elementary OS 5 中，有些人注意到当你想运行一个耗时的任务或简单地观看视频时，会出现自动锁定屏幕的问题。


然而，这种情况在 elementary OS 6 中得到了改变，它不仅解决了这个问题，还以 “屏幕盾牌” 功能的形式带来了新的实现方式。


因此，在观看视频或执行耗时的任务时，你可以轻松地保持系统的清醒，而不会突然中断。


它利用了 GNOME 的守护程序设置，与第三方应用程序有更好的兼容性。


### 7、新的任务应用


![](/data/attachment/album/202108/13/142159jt43gtuoufxuqsx5.png)


elementary OS 6 中添加了一个新的任务应用，在那里你可以管理任务、收到提醒，并在你的系统上组织任务，或与在线账户同步。


我可能还不会用它来取代 Planner，但它是一个很好的补充，因为它打造的很好。


### 8、固件更新应用程序


![](/data/attachment/album/202108/13/142201aj787v44tjlqdvbf.png)


你可以为支持的设备获得最新的固件更新，而无需摆弄任何其他设置。


只要从菜单中寻找“固件”应用程序就可以开始了。


### 9、更新的应用程序


一些应用程序已经被更新，同时引入了新的功能。


例如，Epiphany 浏览器被重新命名为 “Web”，现在有 Flatpak 包可用，以方便快速更新。


它还包括内置的跟踪保护和广告拦截。


其他一些值得注意的变化包括：


* 相机应用获得了一个新的用户界面，可以切换相机、镜像图像等等。
* 应用中心现在不仅列出了 Flatpak 应用程序，而且还在应用程序完成安装后通知你，让你快速打开它。
* 文件应用程序也得到了改进，其形式是一个新的侧边栏和列表视图。另外，现在需要双击才能打开一个文件，而单次点击可以在文件夹中导航。


其他应用程序如邮件、日历也得到了改进，以便更好地进行在线整合。


### 10、改进的桌面工作流程及屏幕截图工具


![](/data/attachment/album/202108/13/142202ofbbwhl4s6smnhcu.png)


多任务视图现在可以帮助你明确区分多个活动窗口。而热角视图可以让你将窗口移动到新的工作区，也可以将窗口最大化。


![](/data/attachment/album/202108/13/142204mshxs18m03h0h33a.png)


屏幕截图工具可以在窗口中移动，而不仅仅是停留在窗口的中心。你还可以从预览中拖放图片，而不需要保存。


### 11、改进的安装程序


![](/data/attachment/album/202108/13/142205oi36if92kc92t5f7.png)


你会注意到一些新的微妙的动画，而且还做了一些努力，以便在不重新调整窗口大小的情况下提供一个一致的安装程序布局。


这不是一次大修，但他们提到新的安装程序带有改进的磁盘检测和错误处理功能，这应该能使安装顺滑进行。


### 总结


[elementary OS 6](https://elementary.io) 是一个激动人心的版本，有多项改进。尽管外观和感觉并没有完全改变，但它已被全面精心雕琢。


我喜欢他们为提供一致和漂亮的用户体验所做的工作。另外，像全系统的 Flatpak 这样的变化应该使用户更容易和更安全。


你对这个版本有什么看法？你试过了吗？

elementary OS 6 is a major upgrade after a few good years of updates to the 5.x series.

While the 5.x series has had numerous feature updates and improvements, [elementary OS 6](https://news.itsfoss.com/elementary-os-6-release/) looks to be an exciting endeavor.

Here, we shall take a look at all the new features and additions that have been introduced with elementary OS 6.

## 1. Dark Style & Accent Color

![](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2021/07/dark-style-elementary.jpg)

[elementary OS](https://elementary.io/?ref=news.itsfoss.com) approaches the dark style theme similar to how mainstream options work, as an opt-in preference. You get to choose it from the Welcome screen right after you install elementary OS 6.

While the addition of a dark mode may sound like something minor, they seem to have put a great deal of effort to provide a consistent dark mode experience overall.

All the first-party applications seamlessly support both the dark style and light theme.

elementary OS will also let the app developers respect the user’s preference in elementary OS 6. So, if the user prefers a dark mode or light mode, the app can adapt to that.

Along with new accent colors available, there is an automatic accent color preference that picks the color from your current wallpaper.

## 2. Improved Notifications & Redesigned Notification Center

The notifications now support icon badges and action buttons, which should make up for a better experience.

![](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2021/06/notification-badge-elementary-os-6.png)

This could let you quickly open links, mark a message read, along with several other possibilities.

Urgent notifications have a new look and a unique sound to help you identify them.

In addition to the notification improvements, the notification center has also been revamped to look better and clean with multiple notifications.

## 3. Online Accounts

Finally, with elementary OS 6, you will be able to add online accounts from the system settings.

Once signed in, your data will sync across the system apps wherever supported (like Calendar, Tasks).

It should also show up in the system tray notifications.

## 4. First-Party Flatpak Apps & Permissions View

To improve privacy and security across the platform, elementary OS 6 chose the Flatpak-first approach.

elementary OS now has its own AppCenter Flatpak repository. Some of the default applications come baked in as Flatpak packages and all the applications listed in AppCenter are available as Flatpaks as well.

Overall, this means a better sandboxing experience where all of your applications will stay isolated from each other without accessing your sensitive data.

![](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2021/08/elementary-os-6-permissions-1024x757.png)

And, to top it all off, elementary OS 6 adds “Portals” where the applications will request permission to access your files or launch another application.

You also get to control all the permissions from the System Settings.

## 5. Multi-Touch Gestures

![](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2021/08/multitouch-multitasking-1024x577.png)

For Laptop and touchpad users, the new multi-touch gestures are going to come in extremely handy.

From accessing the multitasking view to navigating through the workspaces, you can do it all using multi-touch gestures.

Not just limited to certain functions on the desktop, you can interact with notifications, swipe through applications, and can have a seamless system-wide experience with the new multi-touch gestures.

You can customize the gestures or learn more about it from the Gestures section under the System Settings.

## 6. Screen Shield

With elementary OS 5, some noticed an issue with automatic screen locking when you want to run a time-consuming task or simply watch videos.

However, this changes with elementary OS 6, not only it solves the issue, it brings in a new implementation in the form of “**Screen Shield**” feature.

So, you can easily keep your system awake without sudden disruptions when watching a video or performing a time-consuming task.

It utilizes GNOME’s daemon settings to have better compatibility with third-party applications.

## 7. New Tasks App

![](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2021/08/tasks-1024x776.png)

A new tasks app has been added in elementary OS 6 where you can manage tasks, get reminded of them, and organize them on your system or synchronize it with an online account.

I may not replace it with Planner just yet, but it is a good addition to have baked in.

## 8. Firmware Updates App

![](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2021/08/firmware-1024x757.png)

You can get the latest firmware updates for supported devices without fiddling with any other settings.

Just look for the “Firmware” application from the menu to get started.

## 9. App Updates

Several applications have been updated while introducing new capabilities.

For instance, Epiphany browser was renamed to “Web” and is now available as a Flatpak to facilitate quick updates.

It also includes tracking protection and ad blocking built-in.

Some other notable changes include:

- The camera app has recieved a new UI overhaul with the ability to switch cameras, mirroring of image, and more.
- AppCenter not just lists Flatpak apps now but also notifies you when an application has completed installation to let you quickly open it.
- Files app has also received improvements in the form a new sidebar and list view. Also, a double-click is now required to open a file and a single click can navigate through folders.

Other applications like Mail, Calendar have also received improvements for better online integrations.

## 10. Improved Desktop Workflow & Screenshot Utility

![](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2021/08/window-context-dark.png)

The multitasking view now helps you clearly distinguish among multiple active windows. And the hot corners view lets you move the window to a new workspace and maximize the window as well.

![](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2021/08/screenshot.png)

The screenshot utility can be moved around in the window, not just stuck to the center of the window. You can also drag and drop the image from the preview without needing to save it.

## 11. Improved Installer

![](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2021/08/installer-progress-1024x745.png)

You will notice some new subtle animations, and some efforts have been made to provide a consistent layout of the installer without re-sizing the window.

It isn’t a major overhaul, but they mention that the new installer comes with an improved disk detection and error handling, which should make the installation seamless.

## Wrapping Up

[elementary OS 6](https://elementary.io/?ref=news.itsfoss.com) is an exciting release with several improvements. Even though the look and feel is not entirely different, it has been polished across the board.

I like what they are doing to provide a consistent and beautiful user experience. Also, changes like system-wide Flatpak should make things easier and safer for users.

What do you think about this release? Have you tried it yet?
