Omarchy Lacquer v1.0.1
Save a whole set of settings under one name and put it back later, or carry it to another machine as one file.
Before you upgrade to v1.0.1
What changed in v1.0.1
1.0.0 adds Saved looks (written to ~/lacquer-looks.json), a first-run tour, a text-drawing page, a pointer page, motion feels, border and shape presets, display settings, per-app rules, app launcher editing and a screen frame. 1.0.1 shows setting descriptions permanently, stops the wheel changing values and makes the window resizable.
Also: Guided tour, pointer page, readability check, descriptions always visible, resizable window.
Update with `omarchy plugin update io.github.deunnis.lacquer`; needs Omarchy 4. Screen frame needs the Lacquer Shell companion plugin.
New things you can do
Name the whole current look (theme, windows, bar, fonts, pointer, GTK pins, text drawing) and restore it later or on another machine.
Follow a seven-note tour on first run, reopenable from the lamp in the header.

Fixed and improved
The cursor gets its own Mouse pointer page that also hides the pointer while typing or when still, jumps it to the window you land on, magnifies around it and picks who draws it; fonts and cursor themes can be added from a download.
