PenguinOS 17.01 (celerity)

Liquid Glass
β€’ New glass material: blur regions refract what lies beyond their rim, lift the colours behind them and catch the light
β€’ Lit dock rim in the iPadOS style on the home screen
β€’ Quick Settings tile glass fades with the panel; the combined panel uses the glass brightness colours
β€’ Refraction strength slider in PenguinLaboratory
