Early 2020 New features update
So far Aurum has already been comfortably functional.
The new update brings a lot of functions that were necessary to round the experience.
Read below for the full list of completing features and where they will go in future.
Theme editor
You can now find it in the Aurum settings. It comes with a couple of predefined themes.
You can take any, duplicate it and create the type of style you would your overlay want to be.
Especially interesting is to use images instead of colors. Just drag and drop an image to the field and change the tilemode to Tile or FlipXY.
If you need more skinability, there will be additional possibilities and a more sophisticated theme editor layout within the next months.
Hide and show animations
You can now change the way the overlay appears and disappears in the general settings. So far your can adjust the opacity, and sliding values, we will be adding additional possibilities in the future updates. That would include bounce effects, zoom, etc.
Fullscreen background color
Can be found in the general settings. Makes it feel more like you can forget the whole other system when opening Aurum.
Gridsize
For smooth editing there will be more features in the next months, so far the grid is helping to reposition Aurum's elements.
Button background picture zoom & pan
You can now just drop a picture from your files or the browser on any icon. To adjust it you can then use the mouse wheel to zoom and drag to change the offset.
Tiles with regular mouse arrow
You can create background squares with background pictures, with an empty command field they will have the regular mouse arrow, looking not clickable.
Updates to the time addon
With the new time addon you can add multiple elements with a different time format.
Independently you can add time, date, hours or minutes only etc. and change the font and color for each. Right click on the existing one opens the new context menu.
The F1 window
Press F1 to open a window containing new features upon an update and the complete user guide.
Aurum commands
So far did handle all the external windows commands, now it comes with internal commands as well. You can find them if you click "browse presets" in a command tile's menu.
The commands are: aurum settings general, aurum settings hotkeys, aurum settings addons, aurum help, aurum close.
Next features coming at some point in february!
