Open HarlingtonTigers opened 1 year ago
I would like to request the option to have a drop shadow for the display.
I would like it to have options to set the colour and the transparency. In an ideal world the ability to set how sharp or blurred the shadow is as well as the shadow depth/offset.
Here's hoping that it is feasible.
Of course if that is not tricky enough for you, if you were ever able to set multiple lines the ability to have independent line settings as well as a global shadow setting would be awesome.
I did something similar, a 3D effect, by having a duplicate clock slightly offset from the first clock.
I hope in the future Daniel will have one process handle multiple clocks, and use one settings file that describes multiple clocks. This will probably be much lighter on the system, because this little program seems to have a large memory footprint, and have multiple processes makes it worse. Currently I have 4 instances, because I wanted the date on a separate line in a smaller font, but with the same 3D effect.
It also has a very slow start up time, even from my NVMe drive. Ugh! Still, I think it's early days yet, and there will lots of improvement.

@HarlingtonTigers if you could make a mockup for me in Paint.NET or something I'd love to take a look!
@HarlingtonTigers, @danielchalmers , even a colour selector for the colours and transparency option for the fonts of the clock just like it is already there for background will also do.
