Frame.theme (7 presets in app/theme_tokens.py) drives font family,
corner radius, drop shadow, and an accent hue for every modern-style
widget's header/accent region. Rich accent colors (not just the 6 flat
panel inks) are approximated via denser Bayer stippling confined to just
that region (html_render.ordered_dither_regions), so icon/text content
elsewhere stays exactly as crisp as it is today -- verified directly
against real Chromium renders, both in unit tests and via run-server.
"classic" is a byte-identical no-visual-change default: weather's header
keeps its original fixed blue gradient, tasks/calendar keep their flat
THEME_* ink.
Themes are purely stylistic -- battery's charge-level color, calendar/
tasks' per-owner event chips, and text's own per-widget font choice are
never touched.
Extends weather's experimental Chromium+Jinja2 render style to battery,
text, tasks, static image, whiteboard, and calendar (all four view
modes -- agenda/today_tomorrow/week/month), and gives the photos widget
its own genuinely independent palette + dithering strength.
Photos: Frame.photo_palette_rgb/photo_dither_strength (mirroring the
existing palette_rgb/dither_strength), with a second "Photos
configuration" card in Advanced Configuration. widgets/photos.py's
render() quantizes itself against these before returning -- no
render_panel changes needed, since photos is the only widget that
genuinely needs a different reference palette and can carry that
itself, the same way modern-style widgets already self-dither via
ordered_dither.
Battery/text/tasks/static image/whiteboard: same render_style pattern
weather established (render_style column, html_render.py build
function, Jinja2 template, dialog toggle). Static image/whiteboard get
their first-ever visual chrome (a rounded-corner shadowed card,
shared framed_image.html.jinja) since classic draws them with zero
frame at all. Fixed the same "preview endpoint bypasses render_style"
bug weather originally shipped with, for tasks/static/whiteboard/
calendar's preview endpoints.
Calendar: own module (app/calendar_html_render.py, mirroring
calendar_render.py's separation from the simpler widgets) covering all
four view modes, not just agenda -- reuses calendar_render's own
private helpers so event colors/times/weather/month-grid math match
classic exactly. Found and fixed two real cross-day layout bugs along
the way: a per-day header height that varied based on whether that
specific day had a weather entry (misaligning where every other day's
event rows started across the week/month grid), and regular-weight
small text being fragile under Bayer ordered dithering (out-of-month
day numbers degraded into unrecognizable speckle) -- fixed by using
bold everywhere and de-emphasizing via size instead of weight/gray,
since gray text has the same dithering fragility this project's PIL
renderers already avoid for exactly this reason.
Migrations 32-38 (Frame's two new columns, then one render_style column
per widget config table). 452 tests passing, including new dispatch/
migration coverage per widget type and a dedicated photos test proving
photo_palette_rgb produces genuinely independent quantization from the
frame's main palette_rgb.
Introduces app/panel_style.py, a shared style module every render
module now draws through instead of independently duplicating margins/
colors/fonts: Inter Bold/Regular (already vendored, previously only
used by widgets/text.py) replace PIL's single-weight bundled default
font everywhere else; a per-widget-kind accent color (calendar=blue,
tasks=green, weather=black header) replaces plain black-on-white chrome
and is centralized in one THEME mapping so a future global theme only
needs to touch panel_style.py; a small per-widget gutter separates
adjacent widgets without touching grid.py's cell math; header bars,
color chips, and the battery icon get rounded corners.
Also drops the MUTED gray text color used throughout calendar_render.py
and weather_render.py -- a non-palette color that has no close match in
the panel's 6-ink palette and dithers into visible speckle once the
composited canvas is quantized. Secondary text now reads through size/
weight alone, always exact black.
widgets/battery.py and manage_overlay.py's previously-duplicated
battery-glyph-drawing code now share one implementation (panel_style.
draw_battery_icon). widgets/_shared.py's placeholder image is fixed to
use exact palette colors and route through image_pipeline.draw_text,
same as everything else -- it was quietly violating both rules already.
image_pipeline.draw_widget_border gains an opt-in radius param (default
0, unused by any call site) for a possible future rounded-border
setting -- doesn't touch the exact-corner-pixel behavior test_widget_
border.py already pins.
Deliberately out of scope: DEFAULT_PALETTE_RGB and the Floyd-Steinberg
quantization pipeline are untouched, per the prior reverted measured-
palette/OKLab attempt (05b417a/dfe9d701).
Shows Frame.battery_percent/battery_as_of, already set by every device
wake-on-battery report, plus routers/common.py's existing
battery_estimate_s time-remaining estimate -- nothing new to fetch or
cache. Compact (icon + percent) or detailed (+ estimate, last report
age) display mode. No button actions.
