Thoughts on the header bar?
It only appears on hover or touch.

Also, time for bed 🙀

A screenshot of my application Retro. It shows a digital segment clock. Above it there is a tiny 3 buttons header bar with a osd look. There is one close window button, one main menu button and one drag icon.

I'm curious to know whether the header bar is continuously visible or whether it only appears when the application has focus.

Anyway, this is the first time I've seen such a GTK interface 🤔

@gnomelibre Not being rude, but didn't he said - "It only appears on hover or touch".
So the answer would be no, it's not continuously visible if I get it right

WIP but until then you can install
flathub.org/apps/re.sonny.Retr… and it will auto update once it's ready :)

I assume that’s one big window with transparent areas. If so how did you get the shadows to not be drawn around the actual borders?

```css
window {
background-color: transparent;
border: none;
outline: none;
box-shadow: none;
}
```

Wow, that's really interesting! This seems like the kind of thing that one might want to use as a widget, and so not have it show up in the window switcher. Is that possible?
