2 years ago

This update completely reworks the entire drawing logic and should lead
to significant 3-7x speed improvements in animations and reduce the
idle CPU load on a not too busy bar to a level that is barely noticeable.

Improvements and Additions

  • Significant performance improvements in all use cases, but especially in
    animations

  • popup.background.image can now be used and the items are aligned
    accordingly, e.g. see this Spotify widget, where I have the album art below
    the controls in a popup:

  • popup.background.shadow is handled properly now.

  • New mouse.entered.global and mouse.exited.global events

  • Better error messages for all configuration commands

  • Add -fno-common flag for compilation to fix problems with new compiler standards

  • Key-frame support for animations: https://felixkratz.github.io/SketchyBar/config/animations#perform-multiple-animations-chained-together

  • Add notch_offset and notch_width options to --bar domain,
    along with positions q = left of the notch and e = right of the notch to properly
    account for notched internal displays

  • New animation function: quadratic

Fixes

  • Fixes a slight memory leak when querying default_menu_items

  • Fixes a crash when an NSDistributedNotificationCenter event would not sent a proper JSON object

  • Major Performance Optimizations by @FelixKratz in #191
