Since Beta 7.4 (Reborn d5db247)

PartCause / change
Status barOwner: "everything is very small and we still have some space". Four layouts were rendered; the owner chose C: the screen's name beside the back arrow in Title Case (SemiBold 15, white) instead of centred tracked caps; clock SemiBold 15, percentage SemiBold 13; icons 18 px with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth at 22 px (they looked smaller than the USB plug at one size); battery 25 × 13; back arrow 22 px. Skins keep their compact cluster.
Home header"Reborn" and the short version where other screens show their name (owner asked for a header).
MessagesThe status-bar pill is 30 px (was 26) with SemiBold 15 text and an 18 px icon.
SkinOwner: Theme should become "Skin" and leave Display. Settings → Skin is a seventh Settings row (44-px rows, no scrolling; new palette icon); Display keeps Brightness and four rows and no longer scrolls. Skins are read from Skins folders and still from Themes.
About & UpdatesThe Music Library row only opened Storage (owner: "double"); removed. The song count is Scan for Music's secondary text in Storage.

Host evidence: 487 Reborn tests (Skin row in Settings, not in Display; Title Case titles), strict Clippy, fmt; all 115 previews compared by eye; Classic, Big Type and Winamp skins rendered (their own bars unchanged; the native Cover Flow, equalizer and update screens inside skins take the new bar).

Device checks owed

  1. The new status bar, Home header and messages on the panel: legibility, nothing clipped with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, USB and

    charging all shown.

  2. Settings → Skin opens the picker; a skin copied into Skins appears.
  3. Still open from 7.4: Now Playing on battery (598 MHz, temperatures, fps), the Songs list scroll sample, 7.1 and 7 checks.

Known gaps

As Beta 7.4.
