From 52f9c1423bc4e58079b008e763b5485ae49911f7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gabriel Schneider Date: Tue, 29 Sep 2026 08:37:12 -0300 Subject: G14: Afterglow, changed text glows a moment and fades Afterglow on|off (off, a pixel shell's; Chrome.fx bit 4): the GUI keeps the grid it last drew and when each cell changed; a body cell whose text changed glows in the theme's accent, at most 18% and under the text's contrast floor, fading with an ease-out over 250 ms, one flat rectangle a run of cells that changed together; never a tag or a grip, the cursor or a selection; a scrolled body (its first line moved) starts over rather than lighting up whole. On the continuous path while anything glows. Tests: three changed cells glow as a run of two (the cursor's left out), gone by 250 ms, a scroll lights nothing. Gates as before; goldens byte-identical.
