Numbers are hard to read #29

Closed robsdedude closed 4 years ago

robsdedude commented 4 years ago

I'm struggling reading the numbers of not focused windows. I'm not sure how this could be fixed. May be by adding theming options or by adding a black border around the numbers. I've also had a look at the code and tried to implement the border idea but couldn't find an easy way to do it.

Here a little screenshot to demonstrate the issue HardToReadNumber

I mean if you really try hard you can read the 1 but it's merely possible to pick up the numbers when skimming the task bar.

This is Mint-Y-Dark. I don't know where to find the sizes, however.

Cobinja commented 4 years ago

They are in the panel's settings (right click the panel, there's a menu item for them)

Ah found it. I had it set in theme default (what ever that size is, idk). However, playing around with the size, I couldn't find a setting that would fix the issue.

EDIT: This setting seems to be equivalent to theme default: Screenshot from 2020-01-07 13-00-57

Thanks for the fix. But I think it didn't change anything for me…

What is it supposed to look like?

Theme Mint-Y: number_badges_01 Theme Carta: number_badges_02 Which Cinnamon version do you use? If you're using Cinnamon 3.8 or earlier, you're out of luck. I only support 4.0 and later And the used theme has to support this as well. This uses CSS classes that are also used by the builtin Grouped Window List.
