🎨 Palette: Use ANSI Erase in Line for cleaner dynamic updates#121
🎨 Palette: Use ANSI Erase in Line for cleaner dynamic updates#121
Conversation
Replaces manual space padding with the `\033[K` (Erase in Line) ANSI escape sequence after `\r` when updating dynamic lines in `src/main.cpp`. This prevents trailing text artifacts when a shorter string overwrites a longer one, resulting in a cleaner UI redraw loop. Also recorded this finding as a critical UX learning in `.Jules/palette.md`. Co-authored-by: EiJackGH <172181576+EiJackGH@users.noreply.github.com>

💡 What: Replaced manual space padding with the ANSI escape sequence
\033[K(Erase in Line) when updating dynamic UI elements via carriage return (\r) insrc/main.cpp.🎯 Why: To prevent visual bugs (trailing artifacts) where a new dynamic string might be shorter than the previous one, ensuring a clean and consistent CLI interface redraw without relying on fragile hardcoded string lengths.
📸 Before/After: No visual change under normal circumstances, but fixes a subtle visual bug if the line ever shortens.
♿ Accessibility: N/A (Console rendering improvement)
