Good stuff! COSMIC is one of the major tech releases I’m actively looking forward to this year!
Really great. But I would love that the “edit rounded corners” would not apply to the workspace number circle and to the switches, as it makes no sense.
According to you.
No interface has squares everywhere. I think this type of switch is VERY established.

My thing with squares, in some places or everywhere, but I is that they are not visually welcoming, in my very personal opinion of course. Curves look “safer” so to speak.
I’ve seen plenty of people using GTK themes with rectangular switches.
Interesting!
I personally think slightly rounded and normal round is the best. But the default is fine for me.
I think you are doing really great work! Even though I would have used KDE as design reference but we all are different.
Metro UI toggle buttons were rectangular though.
I think it just needs a little polishing. They look a bid odd in those places for now.
Really exciting to see all the new fixes and developments! The release of Cosmic is one of the most exciting things in store for me this year!
I’d recommend everyone to try out
cosmic-store(withcosmic-icons) when they get a chance. Whether you use COSMIC or not, it’s fully functional with any desktop environment. It’s packaged by default in Pop!_OS 22.04, available in Fedora 40 via ryanabx/cosmic-epoch, and the AUR.I’m so excited for Cosmic!
