New Contrast function for Murrine (Clearlooks soon) 4 September, 2008

Yesterday I’ve rewritten the contrast function of Murrine, now it works much better, increasing or decreasing the contrast of the whole window, with better results.

Below a comparison/testcase, where I used big values to show you better what this means. It’s not meant to be good-looking, but to show how the engine manages the values.
Of course adjusting contrast to smoother values will be really useful to improve the quality of your themes.

contrast = 0.2

contrast = 1.0

contrast = 1.5
