Description
Description
Titlebar session tabs switch their background instantly between idle, hover, active and pressed states, and the separators between tabs toggle with display: none. There is no transition, so hover/selection feels like a hard cut.
Proposal: transition the tab background over 140ms with an ease-out curve (registering --tab-base/--tab-overlay as colors so they interpolate) and fade the separators via opacity instead of toggling display. Measured in the packaged desktop app (forcing hover via the DevTools protocol):
- before:
rgb(8,8,8)→rgb(46,46,46)in under 30ms (instant) - after:
rgb(8,8,8)→rgb(35,35,35)at +30ms →rgb(46,46,46)at +90ms - separator: opacity
1 → 0.25at +30ms →0at +240ms (was a display toggle)
Plugins
none
OpenCode version
OpenCode Desktop 1.18.29
Steps to reproduce
- Open two or more session tabs
- Hover the inactive tab or click to switch
- The background and the separators change instantly, with no transition
