Default shiny glass effect to off #173

Closed yaxu closed 2 years ago

yaxu commented 2 years ago

Ref #93 #159 #167

The "shiny glass effect" makes it difficult to read the display, and in my opinion, looks bad and not even like shiny glass. The GUI option for it has now gone, and so I think it's time for the actual effect to go too.

Long time QJackCtl user here. I would love it if the reflected light effect were removed from the display panel. I agree that it makes it harder to read the display. I also think that it looks a bit strange and out of place. I think it would improve the user experience of QJackCtl to remove the light glare effect from the display. Thanks!

while qjackctl is not running, you may edit the configuration file ~/.config/rncbc.org/QjackCtl.conf as follows:

[Options]

DisplayEffect=false

I think it would be better if it was default off.

rncbc commented 2 years ago

nope. sorry

yaxu commented 2 years ago

Ok, would you be interested in a new PR that improved/toned down the glare effect so that it didn't obscure the text?

rncbc commented 2 years ago

of course i would be interested, no promises though :)

yaxu commented 2 years ago

Ok I'll have a think. Regardless, thanks a lot for qjackctl, I've used it regularly for many years.
