Rounded background colors also for Labels?

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?

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

I pimped the liner notes:

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.

Yes sure, I'll fix that.
Next version will be pretty:

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

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.

Oups, missed that. Sorry.
And: makes sense.

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?

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.
