Aesthetic requests for group bars

[spikespaz]

Edit: Looks like we just want to style a rounded rectangle Vaxry.

• Text font
• Stroke color/gradient
• Stroke weight
• Fill color/gradient
• Border radius
• Vertical offset (box/bar)
• Horizontal offset (box/bar)
• Vertical offset (text)
• Horizontal offset (text)
• Drop shadow (same settings as tiles)

I think that should cover most styles we could conceive of.

Original message (edited several times):

1. Drop shadow behind group bar text
2. Drop shadow behind group bar line (when gradient disabled)
3. Configurable stroke of group bar line
   • Option to either offset text, or overlap behind text
   • Stroke width (height)
   • Option for sides (top, bottom, left, right)
   • Option for radius (when using multiple sides)
4. Configurable fill color or gradient
5. Configurable padding between group bar lines
6. Configurable radius of group bar line
7. Configurable color of active/inactive group bar line (separate from border)
8. Text below or above bar
9. Disable groupbar (Completely hide the groupbar #2831)

Perhaps 3 and 7 could be solved with "text offset" and "bar offset", positive or negative for both

I am not sure what style I would choose, but what I'm after is this:

1. Rounded rectangle with custom color (similar to https://github.com/outfoxxed/hy3)
   • Text on top of bar
2. Drop shadow (separate from border) behind the bar and text
   • Text below the bar

Unless I'm missing something obvious there is also no way to change the title font, that would be a great addition too

I like these suggestions, but for starters I would be overjoyed to simply have a solid background colour option for the groupbar as a whole and for the selected 'tab'.

That would come along with stroke width, unless you wanted a border, which would be stroke, and then you'd need fill. I will add fill to the top-level list of ideas.

part of this is worked on by @MightyPlaza in #3197 I believe

Would be useful to be able to configure urgent color for a given window in the group.
