Version 25T1

55th Release of CPE Language

Highlights

• Hand cursor now shows up on dropdown links, buttons and floating buttons only if the link actually points to something (aka the href attribute is used) otherwise the default cursor is used. If any of the aforementioned element opens a dropdown upon clicking on it, the context menu cursor is instead used.
• You can make a dropdown open by hovering on its toggle by adding the opens-on-hover class to cpe-dropdown
• Improved accessibility for keyboard users in much of the CPE Language and Evelution elements by providing distinct focus state styling from the base ones (Which in turn the focus state styling is the same as the active state styling). In the default styling, a border that matches the foreground color of the container (Either black or white outside of High Contrast Mode) is used and those styles apply when :focus-visible matches
• Introduced the ability to set Hyperlink color dynamically, previously on OS level only. When --hyperlink-background-color is set to auto, it will be set to a color that exists in the image but inverted to ensure that light backgrounds will produce light themes. If the theme lacks a background image, then the color will be the same as the Desktop Color albeit inverted for the same reason. In cases where color cannot be found, the fallback #3366cc ones is used. This takes advantage of another color.js library and async functions. Do note that image filters won't affect the final color meaning setting to the theme an image, adding an opacity(0) filter to the image and setting all color variables to auto will create a dynamic theme with a preselected color from the background image that would normally be seen that has no image
  • With this, all color variables default to auto and can become dynamic.
• Added a new monospaced font, Patty Console and is available for use in themes, Goes best with the Level font being set as sans-serif font
• Fixed up emoji (That have defined variation sequences and default to color presentation) in monospaced contexts and high contrast being displayed in color (In System's native font) instead in the expected BW style (Noto Emoji)
• This fix is for Chrome 131.0.0 onward, and will apply browsers that support font-variant-emoji
• Removed all RGB theming variables and replaced them with the Relative color syntax. This means more efficiency in some cases
• Moved certain hover theming variables from JS to CSS to improve performance in several cases
  • Some JS is used to construct the new *-background-color-hover-ratio variables that will be used to construct the hover variables (Which are now done with Relative Color)
  • Removed the *-foreground-color-inverted variables and replaced their uses with the *-foreground-color ones
• The base foreground and text background colors in their hover form are now constructed with Relative Colors instead of being set in a hardcoded absolute color
• Made created banner notifications fade in as in MediaWiki
• Tweaks to transition timings in some elements
• Introduced --contrast-box-shadow property that sets box shadow to an element in High Contrast mode
• Removed the ability for themes to change --system-acryllic-opacity (Now spelled as --system-acrylic-opacity) property in favor of calculating it automatically like how the tabs opacity is done (And it depends on it too)
  • In addition, BG Opacity on elements that can become accented now depends whether Luna Lavccent is active or not
• Optimized several theming code by moving certain theming variables from JS to CSS
• Merged *-alternative-foreground-color variables with the existing *-text-color variables (Or with similar ones)
  • As a result, the preset text color variables have been dropped
• Moved many foreground color definitions from JS to CSS (Including all foreground color variables belonging to text color variables)
• Made APCA mandatory and enabled by default
• Removed the Modern Color Filters implementation and replaced it with an updated version of the legacy ones. In addition, it now works on Disabled Color Management as well
  • Also, the color style filters now apply in the resulted filter last, not after the inverted filter. This is done to ensure that when for instance Tritanopia is used, the colors the user will see will always be colors that be seen in Tritanopia
  • Unused code was removed as well

Version 24T3

54th Release of CPE Language

Highlights

• Dropped Support for PaleMoon and removed the required CSS fallbacks for that browser as well
• Introduced CPE Language 6.0.0 with the following changes:
  • Better Mouse and Touch support
  • Slightly different semantics
• Switched all uses of the legacy color syntax to the modern ones (Which the unsupported PaleMoon can understand). The old syntax can no longer be used with RGB variables any longer as they're now space-separated values
• Buttons, Inputs and Dropdowns and are now more compact for mouse users.
• Added support for using APCA guidelines for color contrast, disabled by default
  • As a result, some dynamic dark themes have been edited to have lighter hyperlink colors, only to be still dark.
  • Should you encounter a bug, report it.
  • With APCA, you can see lighter generic colors in Light Mode compared with WCAG. Color contrasts of 3.0 and 4.5 in the latter guidelines correspond to 45 and 60 in the former ones.
• Changed how contrast levels behave, and now plays nicely with APCA contrast rules
• Made autocolorization of Active Text and Active Caption colors contain a 30deg hue shift, to match Material Design 3 even more
• Bundled almost all fonts that weren't bundled with CPE Language but were with Evelution
  • Brileback Xtreme, Evelution Terminal, Evelution Sans, Level and PowerPlus fonts are now bundled as well
• Margins on Floating Button group buttons have been replaced with the gap property inside the Floating Button group itself. This allows developers to hide the very first button without leaving a gap to the top
• Updated Chroma.js library to version 3.1.0 to enable APCA. This will be regularly updated for more APCA updates

Version 24T2

53rd Release of CPE Language

Highlights

• Temporarily disabled the new scrollbar-color and scrollbar-width properties in Chromium-based browsers as the styling of hovered elements in scrollbar isn't distinctive from the style of non-hovered elements in scrollbar compared to the scrollbar-styling in Firefox and the CPE-styled scrollbars in Chromium and Webkit-based browsers
• Updated Graph Colors once again and added hover versions of them
• Added the ability to make dropdowns being landscape only in Landscape Mode (While keeping them portrait in Portrait Mode)
  • In Evelution Skin, those are used only on Global Navigation

  • In 3D visual mode, they're presented with 3D motif and not 2D
• Removed code related to Low-End Skins and Interpreters as it goes unused going forward

• Removed OOUI Code from CPE.css
• Added more .wikitable styles and added .fancytable table styling with special stylin
• Changed how Select Inputs are handled with JS
• AliasFandomComponents() function now properly handles WDS dropdowns opening from the right (aka Landscape dropdowns)
• Renamed cpe-dropdown-level-2 classes to cpe-dropdown-level-nested. You don't have to do anything in your HTML content as elements with the former classes will be automatically changed to the latter ones (i.e. cpe-dropdown-level-2__content to cpe-dropdown-level-nested__content)
• Reinserted support for the theme-color meta tag after being absent since the 41st release of CPE Language
• Added Screensaver Highlight color for use in containers with #0c0c0c background color
• Unified Purple Graph color hue between Light and Dark Themes
• Default fallback font switched to sans-serif
• In lightweight mode, dreamy Evelution users now have the system font stack enforced in all browsers, instead of fallbacking to specific fonts
• Renamed fieldset to cpe-settings-fieldset to emphasize that these are used in Settings content only. Also, those can be optionally collapsed as well
• Renamed some functions and added RGB versions of the graph colors.
• Added Noto Sans Symbols 2 to Emoji font stack as the new Symbol font family
• Switched the default Color Scheme to auto to encourage Light/Dark support without any user modifications to the default CPE Language settings though existing browser configuration will not be affected so you will keep the Color Scheme setting of light if you had it before
• Bug fixes

Version 23H2

50th Release of CPE Language

Highlights

• Adjusted styles of Progress Bars and Range Inputs to match secondary buttons and inputs
• When Disabled Color Management is enabled, rounded corners are now disabled when they're forcibly disabled due to low-end device
• Made Dropdown Header color slightly translucent when transparency effects are enabled
• Made CPE dropdowns for non-touch devices compact.
• Input boxes can be mixed with buttons in button groups.
  • In addition, button groups no longer have special behavior with tertiary buttons
• Input boxes in dropdowns now use secondary canvas text color as text color in order to avoid illegible text in cases where primary and secondary canvas color differ drastically and the primary canvas text color is not legible against the secondary canvas color
• In Forced Colors Mode, default visual mode in the configuration now Standard when no configuration for CPE Language is present in Local Storage, though this makes no difference as in Forced Colors Mode you are stuck with the High Contrast Visual Mode
• You can no longer see the visualmode-- class in the <html> container anymore
• Buttons and Input boxes no longer use a Rounded font stack as some of the rounded fonts contain special effects like the diverge Rubik font selection such as Rubik Maze
• Changed default hyperlink color in CPE Language core from Red to Blue
• Dropped support for Chrome 84-99, Firefox 84-99, Edge 84-99, Safari 14 and Pale Moon 29. Support for those browsers was deprecated in Evelution 135.0.0

• Revised Generic Colors in order to provide better contrast in Dark Mode

Version 23H1

49th Release of CPE Language

Highlights

• Added a 3D Visual Mode
  • This Visual Mode inserts visual cues from the Retro Visual Style Evelution once had into the other Visual Styles but in Neumorphism form.
  • This visual mode is not enabled by default
  • Nested Dropdowns in the browser version will receive 3D effects as well
• Updated Material Symbols fonts to latest revision
• Luna Levit's blur radius is now 9vh instead of 80px in order to be consistent across screen sizes
• Dropdown Links that open a nested dropdown no longer have rounded corners on all sides
• Tweaked when a fixed positioned dropdown (Used on local nav wiki-tools overflow menu) becomes more compact
• Added the ability to force plain cpe-button be frameless by default. Just put the force-text class in the element that houses the CPE buttons. You can add to an inner button the is-primary class to make buttons inside that containers primary such as:

<div class="cpe-button-group force-text">
    <button class="cpe-button">Test</button>
    <button class="cpe-button is-primary">Test 2</button>
    <button class="cpe-button">Test 3</button>
</div>

• When links have poor contrast with the text color, an underline text decoration will be added, even if they're not hovered into.
• Disabled elements are now done with reduced opacity, instead with a grayscale filter

  • Borders in Buttons and Inputs are now a bit compact
  • Adjusted Colors on tabs and inputs to match Windows 11
  • Ability for themes to use a different icon style

• Added translucent bg to checkbox elements
• Rewrote Visual Color Compiling a bit to be faster and better
• Overhauled DCM Support to be simpler and be distinguishable from regular color schemes. One of the changes are the removal of the Theme Slots from DCM (User couldn't select one anyway but now it no longer depends on them)
• You can force icons be filled at all times

Version 22H3

48th Release of CPE Language

Highlights

• Renamed various function names inside theming JS
• When theme cannot be applied, an error will be logged in the console for debugging
• Added contrast checks to Captions
• Text-based Progress color now use the same color as the Background-based ones (Intended for 95.0.0)
• Automatic Inactive Titlebar color is now better (Uses 75% canvas color and 25% active caption color instead of 100% Inactive Text)
• Styling fixes for the Classic Visual Style
• Floating boxes behave like buttons in classes (Except for Secondary variant) and base styling and the default styling is the Hyperlink ones
  • Added Alternate Accented, Warning Color, Progress Color and Message Color stylings.
• Added more contrast levels
• Secondary Canvas Color can no longer be a color that it is legible with the canvas color when used against it as a form control (Or Large Text) color, mimicking the Inactive Caption Color
• Automatic Color adjustment now happens by 1% lightness adjustment instead of 2% in order to make the Indeterminate Color Contrast Levels more notable and does not hurt performance too much on newer hardware
  • This does not apply to Generic Colors as those are fixed to specific lightness values that are multiple of 2% and do not match between various contrast modes or wiki themes
• Added the ability to automate DCM Types based on the current Active System Theme. Has no effect on Forced Colors Mode
• Renamed ForcedColors() to DisabledColorManagement(). The former function name has been repurposed for different check
• You can set Desktop Color to autocolorization which will lock it to Canvas Color
• You can set Canvas Color to autocolorization which will make a dynamic theme based on the color of the links
  • If Hyperlink Color is a light color, it will create a dark Canvas Color
  • If Hyperlink Color is a dark color, it will create a light Canvas Color
  • This makes possible for a theme to specify only one color value, with the rest being set to auto. The target color is the Hyperlink Color. Does not work the same as Android 12+ but similarly.
  • Evelution Color Schemes now rely on this addition
• Renamed GetCanvasShort() to GetCanvas() and the former GetCanvas() has been removed as it was used only once in the theming JS. This does not affect DisabledColorManagement
• Overhauled Autocolorization of certain theming variables
  • Highlight Color now autopicks a darker (lighter for Dark themes) variant of link color
  • Active Caption Color now autopicks a lighter (darker for Dark themes) variant of link color
  • All text-related theming variables (Except Secondary Canvas Text which locks itself to Canvas Text) now autopick an inverted version of the non-text theming variable
  • Visited Hyperlink and Active Text Colors still autopick the chosen Hyperlink Color as those are mostly intended to be left unaltered from the regular hyperlink Color, per Windows High Contrast Mode theming
  • This should make a dynamic theme more unique
• Desktop Text color now adjusts for contrast at ALL cases
• Inactive Luna State with Luna Lavccent now behaves like the active state with different colors (As Inactive Caption color will have much lower contrast than the active ones)
  • Does not affect the unaccented luna state as both the active and inactive state are made using the Secondary Canvas Color
• Fixed up Automated Highlight Color being too dark. This means that while on some themes that color will be less distinctive than before, it will have lower contrast level as well, not to mention that Highlight Color has less stricter contrast level requirements than Hyperlink Color.
• Active Text color is now distinct from the regular hyperlink color when it is set to auto
  • It is calculated in the same manner Highlight Color used to be
• As Inactive Caption is meant to be less notable, inactive caption text has less stricter contrast requirements than the Active Caption Text
• When Highlight Text, Active Caption Text, Inactive Caption and Inactive Caption Text are set to autocolorization, they won't be adjusted, like the autocolorized Inactive Text due to inheriting it from parent colors. This affected the Dark Color Mode as well as the Reversi, Single Reversi, Hot Temperature and Cold Temperature Color Styles
• Inactive Luna State theming now matches the ones found in High Contrast Mode when Luna Lavccent is disabled
  • When using the standard visual mode, you will notice the transparency effects disabled, making the distinguishing still possible
• Fixed up Desktop color being used in the <body> element, when theming engine hasn't been loaded.
• Re-added background-hover-rgb theming variables for all theming variables and some are used in the Simple Visual Style theming
• Background Color of Links in Simple Visual Style (i.e. in Dropdowns) now respect acrylic opacity to make things better
• Renamed dropdown-opacity to acrylic-opacity
• Renamed acryllic (Except in system-acryllic-opacity) to acrylic
• Default mica-opacity for disabled transparency effects has been changed from 2 to 1
• Theming JS now loads before Base JS, making page load times a bit smaller due to the overhead being added by the Theming Engine
  • As a result, code for select inputs and range inputs has been copied to the Theming JS as well
  • Moved all code that does not compiles the Theming Engine after the function that forces the theming engine to be recompiled (In this case, VisualColor() function)
    • As a result, the code the compiles the Visual Colors and Styles has been split into two. The code that compiles Visual Styles is called after the theming engine has been compiled, while the ones that compile Visual Colors before.
• Removed fallback theming variables from the engine and restricted the transition disable hack to Evelution Skin for now
  • Theming-loaded class is now handled in Base JS instead of Theming JS, to avoid weird effects with modules
• CPE Language now runs under Pale Moon browser, instead of dying. Version 29 or newer is required and you'll experience the following limitations:
  • You won't have transparency effects and you will be stuck with square corners
  • You won't have focused state of icons
  • You won't have support for Color Modes in DCM (The Correspnding Menu to change them during DCM is also hidden)
  • You will have degraded DCM experience as most of the cutting-edge System Colors are not supported. You'll have Window, WindowText, ButtonFace, ButtonText, GrayText, Highlight and HighlightText as the only system colors to see in DCM. The rest are aliases to those.
  • Similar to old supported Chrome and Firefox releases, automatic contrast level is the same as low (On Windows, it is at all times when a High Contrast theme is not set anyways)
  • You won't have CPE Language themed checkboxes and radios because in that browser they're treated like in an older version of Firefox
• Acrylic and Mica blurs are now consistent across themes (Before, setting a higher elements opacity would make the blurs smaller and vice versa)
• You can set the unhovered floating button shadow opacity to a different value than the 1/2 of the hovered ones
• You can set the border opacity in hovered taskbar links to a different value than the 1/2 of the background color opacity of the hovered taskbar links
• Simplified the code that checks the browser version
  • As a result, a hack that was present was removed
• Aliased AccentColor system colors to Highlight ones under Forced Colors Mode
• Luna Levit (If shown by editing the HTML classes using F12 tools) now displays properly under Pale Moon
  • This adds a system-mica-opacity variable which is the opposite value of system-acryllic-opacity (Unless the latter is set to 0.5). If the latter is set to 0.6, the former will be set to 0.4
• Made Roboto Flex the default primary font
  • Unlike other new fonts debuted in this release, it is also bundled with CPE Language, along with several Web Qore fonts
• Unaccented Luna Theming now supports the luna-foreground-color-inverted variable
  • Prior to this, it was supported as an alias of luna-foreground-color
• Merged the three ColorAdjust() functions into one
• ColorAdjust() now preserves the color's original hue. Before, a small change could be noted.
• Split Color Styles into two:
  • Color Hue which allows you to set the hue shift amount of all colors to a number between 0 and 360 that it is divisible with 5
    • When no special effect has been added, it shifts both LCH and HSL Hue
    • When Colorstyle effect has been applied, it shifts only HSL Hue
    • When another effect has been applied, it adjusts the HSL Hue, then applies the associated effects (Either Grayscale, or one of the Temperature Scales (Hot or Cold))
    • Several Recommended values have been hinted. Those correspond to Red, Yellow, Green, Cyan, Blue and Pink colors for easy access
  • Color Styles which apply special effects. Certain may force the theme's color scheme to be according on the active device theme (i.e. If device theme set to auto-dark, color style is set to single and System's color scheme is Light, then theme's color scheme will be Dark even if the theme's color scheme is Light) compared to allow both Light and Dark themes at once regardless of device theme (This is inversed if Device Theme is computed to Dark)
    • Renamed Single Color to Colorscale
  • As a result, removed the Reversi, Single Reversi and all but one Single Color Color Styles. In addition, reduced the amount of Special Color Effects processed by the Color Style Adjustment from 9 to 4
  • Added the ability to change the color saturation independently from the color styles, allowing more control over colo...

Version 22H2

47th Release of CPE Language

Highlights

• Added the ability to force plain cpe-button be secondary or tertiary by default. Just put the force-secondary and force-tertiary classes respectively in the element that houses the CPE buttons. You can add to an inner button the is-primary class to make buttons inside that containers primary such as:

<div class="cpe-button-group force-secondary">
    <button class="cpe-button">Test</button>
    <button class="cpe-button is-primary">Test 2</button>
    <button class="cpe-button">Test 3</button>

  • Added all base Contrast Styles that affect CPE Components to CPE.css, which was previously part of Visual_Styles.css of Evelution SKin.
• Replaced the existing Material Icons iconography with the new Material Symbols iconography which brings much better icon design and display
  • Switched default icon styling to Outlined and made filled styling be used only on selected and focused state of an element (Akin to some Website implementations)
  • Icons will now inherit the font weight from the parent, instead of being fixed as the recent iconography update can adapt the many font weights
• Added the ability to apply a blend mode to the desktop background image which will be mixed with the current Desktop Backgrouund Mode
  • This is not used by default
• Desktop Text Background Color is now also adjusted for contrast when no background image is set to the desktop, in addition of when using a Temperature Color Style
• When changing a Select input value via the UI and then with JS, when opening the dropdown of the said element, the value changed via JS will be preserved
• Unfocused Luna Theming without Luna Lavccent is now similar with the focused ones (To match Luna Levit theming)

Build 46 (Version 22H1)

46th Release of CPE Language

Highlights

• Did tons of code cleanup and improvements over the Theming JS, resulting in minor performance improvements
  • Merged some functions with others, reduced code duplication and added some new window.MW18 prefixed settings to simplify things up.
• Tweaks to Forced Colors mode and automatic title bar colors
• Hardcoded the alternative foreground colors and tweaked the light ones (The ones used for light themes)
• Added new attributes (force-active and force-inactive) which allows a specific element to have a specific Luna State (Active or Inactive, used on Window Previews)
• Fixed some bugs related to Color Modes and manual color set of desktop text color. That would happen on higher contrast presets
• Classicfied the Acryllic transparency on Luna theming and simplified it a lot:
• Added the ability to change acryllic's opacity (Between 40 to 80 percent, default is 60) for each theme. On lesser opacity, you'll have more blurs while on more opacity less.
• Fixed up performance when using dark themes
• Made floating buttons have their active state at all time it should have, not just when a dropdown is opened under it
• Replaced the following attributes with the following classes inside the HTML element:
  • accented attribute with has-accents class
  • theme attribute with theme-X class where X is a letter from A to H
  • visualcolors atribute with visualcolors-X class where X is the name of visual color pack
  • visualtheme attribute with visualstyle-X class where X is the name of visual style
  • Syntax changes also happened. For instance:
    • [accented="true"] becomes .has-accents
    • [accented="false"][theme="G"] becomes :not(.has-accents).theme-G
    • [visualtheme="classic"][visualcolors="standard"] becomes .visualstyle-classic.visualcolors-standard
• Changed the has-icon attribute with the has-icon class to improve slightly performance

• Highlight background color can be set to auto. This will fix that color to the chosen hyperlink background color
• Replaced the background image opacity slider --desktop-background-image-opacity with a filter-based engine which supports translucency --desktop-background-image-filter:
  • Merged the Two Techno Theme Images and the eight Cubes Images into one and applied their manipulations using the newly added property instead of using different images which can be a pain on slower connections
  • Existing theme definitions (Usually found at Evelution.css) can add --desktop-background-image-filter:; to remove the default image filter from stock themes.
  • This means that to apply 50% transparency to desktop image without any other filters, you need to use --desktop-background-image-filter:opacity(50%) instead of --desktop-background-image-opacity:50%

  • Hardened VisualColor script to only accept standard, nocolormanagement and any other installed color scheme (Such as forced in case of Evelution), with the rest fallbacking to standard

  • Buttons and banners with these colors can also be made as well
