The Black Window
Just a mobile, resizable, always on top, clean, minimalist black window.
Motivation: Sometimes I don't want to see part of a PDF, or cover useless or flashy parts of the screen, to optimize attention and speed of studies and work.
Future implementations:
- Add a hidden button to change the color;
- Add a hovering interaction in the window-moving area;
- Add maximize and minimize buttons (I'm lazy);
- Turn it into an .exe file (I'm lazy).
The Dark Reader
Same as The Black Window, but... there's a rectangular hole. It's resizable, movable, and you can even interact with what's behind it through the hole. And there's a full-screen mode. Simple to use and helpful for a focused reading season.
Motivation: When you want to read a PDF, there are a lot of things around, and depending on the font, even the many lines can get in the way. Imagine if all you could see was the line you're reading.
Future implementations:
- Add a hidden button to change the color;
- Add a hovering interaction in the window-moving area;
- Improve the hovering for close and fullscreen butttons.
- Add minimize button?
- Turn it into an .exe file (I'm lazy).
P.s.: The actual main file is a python file, so you will need it and the tkinter package installed on your PC. If you have any suggestions or comment, please leave them on the discussion page.
