Perch v3.0.1

Perch v3.0.1

Smoother text

The whole widget is now drawn onto a canvas three times larger than the window and then box-filtered back down in premultiplied-alpha space. Text, numbers, arrows, the shield and the capsule / ring outlines therefore get real grey coverage at their edges instead of snapping to whole pixels - the stair-stepped look is gone.

Nothing else changed: same layout, same colours, same size, same acrylic look.

Cost

Roughly one extra render pass per second; measured idle CPU stays around 0.5% of one core and the working set is unchanged (~28 MB).
