Sorry I could not capture my login screen. If anyone could point me where I can learn to take screenshots in sddm I would appreciate it.

    The vertical alignment of the panel is not great, the horizontal one probably can be improved too. The clock font size seems bigger than everything else which is questionable but not an issue. Love the transparent inactive windows and the very readable active one. Let’s say 9/10

      Thank you, I think the window alignment is fine but since i3 draws borders to “child containers” and I obviously messed up the config file it it looks weird sometimes. I made the clock bigger but now that you mention it it looks wrong to me too. And for the panel I think you mean the white line that I put in there to separate images? Any way thank to point it out I will do something about it. :) Oh I think you mean that the panel is no the same width size as the windows, I like it that way, I find it odd otherwise.

        You are welcome. And no I meant that all the widgets inside the panel look a pixel or two closer to the top then to the bottom of it. The windows are fine

          Oh yeah, I can’t fix that automatically its just the icons(I guess). Im going to dump them for text or a monospace icon set if I ever find one.

    You made it so that only the currently focused window has 100% opacity, while making the others really transparent. Isn’t that impractical when you are, let’s say, writing some document while checking other windows for information related to what you’re writing? Has there been any situations where something similar happened to you? Since this is your own “rice”, there’s no problem if you never used your computer for stuff like this, but I’m legit curious about it.

    Great work :)

      You are correct I just had those setting like that just for the showcase. And the there are loads of small tweaks I am still testing, its often I find something that is offset or annoying, god help me.

        My understanding is the term originated in the car-modding scene as a derogatory way to refer to the way east asian people modded their cars. While I’m sure it’s not what the OP intended, it’s a term with some baggage
