Workspace cards now have rounded corners and the switcher at the bottom of the screen has been updated for light and dark modes as well.<br/> <img src="https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/113/550/610/128/194/282/original/a87ed896af82c0b6.png"> <br/> <img src="https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/113/550/610/135/527/692/original/1456d718adf07e7c.png"> <br/> 2024-11-26T18:13:51Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsgrhppyn6pepddmknnphykxfm5jscpf2vhg202wququ5tav6d67lczyr20dmpqdc848lkjl3mm0vjf4wqwsmgnyd7m7lysj8d6955w2pr0gl9dj0r In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqugx47tl3et36vpmfve2amg8czd35y2rldhnqgwmluvapmmer5cq5rvr2x'>nevent1q…vr2x</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Pointers were completely redrawn in OS 8 to be more consistent, make better use of color, and be more precise. The new design is more fun and playful with softer edges and rounder corners while maintaining high contrast and legibility. The new design feels extremely familiar but also more modern.<br/> <img src="https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/113/550/608/216/926/705/original/1b380d851e56b3d1.png"> <br/> 2024-11-26T18:13:11Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsqugx47tl3et36vpmfve2amg8czd35y2rldhnqgwmluvapmmer5cqzyr20dmpqdc848lkjl3mm0vjf4wqwsmgnyd7m7lysj8d6955w2pr0gtgdqx2 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqszrswch7skw39mwu5qvuljrh4gg6k0fuwneypp0alrry0aujeyvnsl47dkw'>nevent1q…7dkw</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>OS 8 also brings a new Quick Settings menu that improves access to features while reducing clutter in the panel. We’ve started by combining the accessibility and session menus which contain useful controls, but don’t indicate a change in status.

We’ve also vastly improved support for text scaling, screen readers, keyboard navigation, right-to-left language layouts, and improved contrast in illustrations. Plus search now returns more relevant results and the titles of those results now reflect both the exact setting name they’re matching and the path to that setting.<br/> <img src="https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/113/550/600/067/147/657/original/0b406355c8e56fb1.png"> <br/> <img src="https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/113/550/600/066/226/282/original/336fc419f48e711f.png"> <br/> <img src="https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/113/550/600/081/045/990/original/6fff0ba227670846.png"> <br/> <img src="https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/113/550/600/083/316/313/original/cb1e57ee3739d1e1.png"> <br/> 2024-11-26T18:12:04Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsgfuwdamfd927a4k6h7542p8smfn7zv9cue3encu5d34e2yf7wjtgzyr20dmpqdc848lkjl3mm0vjf4wqwsmgnyd7m7lysj8d6955w2pr0gwt775w In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsq67e880tv8vf43l6pgae2evsf3p6aznv9hz2qavef9agvjpj6rgqhr84k9'>nevent1q…84k9</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Keyboard navigation and screen reader support during Installation, Initial Setup, and Onboarding has been rewritten and the entire first run experience has been much improved for blind folks in OS 8.
