Border around progress bar, but have background transparent

Open Qwerty-Space opened this issue 5 years ago • 3 comments

I'd like for the background to be transparent, but with an opaque border. Is this possible?

I'm not sure exactly what you want it to look like, but borders usually look goofy since the bar is fixed to the bottom edge of the window.

You could try adding the following to your config for a bright red border:

bar-foreground-style=\bord3\3c&H0000FF&
bar-background-style=\alpha&HFF&

This will look odd if you have the cache bar enabled, and the current split cache bar design does not play well with trying to put an outline around the cache bar.

Oh this bar-background-style=\alpha&HFF& is very good 👌
