Rounded background colors also for Labels?

[Filehero]

Hi Don,

the rounded background colors for color filters is nice.

Wish: add this option also for labels.

Rationale: some day I switched to foreground colors only for color filters and restricted background coloring to labels to make them even more distinctive. Making the label's corners rounded would make them also cute. ^^

Labels come in different styles (Configuration | Information | Tags | Label style). Which one you mean?

[Filehero]

I do use "Name column", but "Label column (caption)" seems to be a proper target as well.

[admin]

Yep. Already done it. Looks sweet!

Edit: great!

I pimped the liner notes: viewtopic.php?p=216074#p216074

So when you set it to max (100) you get a half circle on the left and right side of the box (if it has landscape ratio).

Nice.
One tiny issue: It seems that the radius of the label sometimes is cut off on the label's right end.
Not sure how I managed the 2nd (better) example to pop up but it is still suitable as a comparison.

That's the vertical gridline that runs over it.

Yes, you must be right, but the label should be on top of the grid line or else, fully inside the column.

[admin]

Yes sure, I'll fix that.

Next version will be pretty:

Little bug with 25.20.0122: label style "Name column" also stains "Label".

[admin]

On purpose.

Code: Select all

v25.20.0111 - 2023-12-02 15:17
    * Configuration | Information | Tags | Label style: Style "Name column" now also 
      colors the Label column; there is no point in not doing it. Unless explicitly 
      desired (style "No coloring") the Label column should show the labels as they are 
      defined.

[Filehero]

Oups, missed that. Sorry.

And: makes sense.

[Filehero]

Usually I don't care about that much anymore, but I do like that "rounded" agenda.

I'm curious: is there any ui element "easily" roundable still on your list, Don?

[admin]

We'll see. I'm still working on the basics. There's not much documentation, so I've built a rounding lab to see what's possible and what's useful.

Great, the emperor could get new clothes!

Some years ago I was committed to flat designs with angled corners. Flat is still there, but corners could be slightly "disarmed".

I like.
