A machine without a GPU, like most VMs, renders through llvmpipe on the
CPU, where every animated frame and every translucent window costs. In a
VM, opening and closing a terminal took ~5s of CPU; a panel ~3.4s.
omarchy toggle animations (also under Toggle > Animations) places a Hyprland
flag that turns off animations, blur and shadows and makes windows opaque.
The shell follows Hyprland's animations:enabled, rereading it on every
config reload: its one-shot animations run for Style.duration(ms), which
is then 0, and its spinners, pulses and title marquee hold still. A new
install in a VM starts with the flag in place.
Measured in the ISO test VM (llvmpipe), CPU per interaction:
terminal open+close 5000ms -> 481ms, workspace switch 1670ms -> 409ms,
audio panel 3446ms -> 796ms, volume OSD 2324ms -> 584ms, menu 2028ms ->
1241ms.

A center-anchored module is mounted twice: the copy that is drawn, and a
zero-size placeholder holding its place in the flow beside the anchor.
findPanelWidget returned whichever registered first, and that order is
not stable across a live bar reconfiguration, so a panel could open
anchored to the invisible copy -- mispositioned, with the drawn slot
never lighting up and switchPanelFrom unable to find it again.
The mark was also always 55% of the slot, which fits an icon but
underlines only a fraction of a text label, and runs the full height of a
multi-line module on a vertical bar. Modules can now say how long the
mark should be along the bar; anything that does not answer keeps the old
proportion.

Themes now drive typography the same way they drive colors: one [font]
base-size in shell.toml is the rem root, and every Style.font.<token>
(caption, bodySmall, body, subtitle, title, heading, display,
displayLarge, iconSmall, icon, iconLarge) derives from it via a fixed
multiplier. Themes can also pin individual tokens for stylistic
emphasis. base-size is clamped 11..13 until row-height tokens exist.
Bar dimensions move to the same singleton: [bar] size-horizontal /
size-vertical replace the hardcoded 26/28 in Bar.qml, exposed as
Style.bar.sizeHorizontal / sizeVertical.
Style.qml also resolves the fontconfig 'monospace' alias via fc-match
and exposes Style.font.resolvedFamily so panels can display the
concrete family. Watches ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf so it tracks
'omarchy font set <name>'.
The qs.Ui kit (PillButton, Dropdown, Toggle, TextField, etc.) and
every first-party plugin (bar widgets, settings, menu, clipboard,
emoji, polkit, notifications, osd, image-picker, dev-gallery) now
bind to Style.font.* instead of pixel literals. Only three deliberate
display-scale outliers remain: the notification empty-state glyph and
the weather flyout's hero temperature pair, all commented.
Background plugin's applyTheme IPC fast-path also pushes shell.toml to
Style so theme swaps update typography and bar size without waiting
for inotify debounce.
Dev gallery (omarchy dev ui-preview) now ships a Typography section
that renders the full scale and theme tokens live, and its summon
command is fixed (omarchy-shell-ipc -> omarchy-shell).
