Activity Bar Improvements:
- Draggable: Grab left handle to move anywhere on screen
- Resizable: Grab right handle to change width (400-1600px)
- Background Opacity: Now actually works (20-100%)
- Search toggle: Right-click menu to show/hide search box
- Clock toggle: Right-click menu to show/hide clock
- Reset Position: Right-click menu to reset to default position
- Settings dialog: Added opacity slider, width, search/clock toggles
Config additions:
- x, y: Custom position
- width: Bar width (400-1600)
- background_opacity: 20-100%
- show_search: Toggle search visibility
- show_clock: Toggle clock visibility
Bug Fixes:
- OverlayController now inherits QObject (fixes 'cannot be converted' error)
- Activity bar saves position when dragged
- Activity bar saves width when resized
Changes:
- Fixed is_focused property (was calling as method)
- EU focus detection now DISABLED by default
- Added auto_show_on_focus setting (default: false)
- Hard disable if focus check takes >1 second
- ActivityBarConfig now includes auto_show_on_focus setting
This prevents the EnumWindows blocking that was causing 4.5s freezes.
Users can manually enable in settings if they want auto-show behavior.
The hide_timer QTimer was being created after _apply_config() was called,
but _apply_config() tries to set the timer interval. This caused:
AttributeError: 'WindowsTaskbar' object has no attribute 'hide_timer'
Fix: Move hide_timer creation to before _apply_config() call.
