Review of "Retro LCD 7-Segment Clock" version 62

Details Page Preview

Vintage digital display with a high-fidelity 7-segment font. 10 color themes, custom colors, ghost segments, CRT scanlines, desktop widget mode, a quick color-switch menu, and integrated alarms with an on-screen dialog so they're never missed. Reads its own bundled font and alarm sound files, and copies the bundled font into ~/.local/share/fonts on first opening preferences so the live preview renders correctly; no other file access.

v62 changelog... This release contains two small, self-contained fixes, no new permissions, dependencies, or GSettings keys were added. Panel indicator now sizes to its content. Previously the clock's background/border box always stretched to the full height of the top panel row, regardless of the configured font size. The container no longer expands to fill the panel; it now centers vertically and sizes itself to the natural height of the displayed text, so the display stays visually proportional at any font size (this only affects the panel indicator — the floating desktop widget already behaved this way). Clearer time/date separator in panel mode. When "Show Date" is enabled and the clock is docked in the panel, the date is now separated from the time with -- instead of a plain double space, making the two easier to tell apart at a glance. (Desktop widget mode is unaffected, since it already places the date on its own line.) No changes to metadata.json beyond the version bump, no new files, and no modifications to the GSettings schema. Gracias :)
