Release 4.248.0

Every time in the reader's own clock (the owner, 11-14: "make it so areas like this show the time based on the users computer by default or configurable setting if logged in and changed").

• theme-loader's time: format(value, 'time'|'date'|'datetime'|'day'|'ago'|'full'), zone(), device(), hour12(), zones(), upgrade(scope). Two new display settings, synced to the account like the rest: clock (auto, 12, 24) and tz (auto, or any IANA zone the browser knows). Auto is this device's zone and clock.
• <time datetime="…" data-ov-time="…"> anywhere on a page is rewritten in the reader's time (its title says the full moment with the zone), again when the setting changes and for any such element added later. A server keeps writing UTC as the fallback for crawlers.
• The Look panel has Clock (Auto, 12-hour, 24-hour) and Time zone.
• Comments (thread.js): the time's title is the reader's moment, not "UTC".
• The feed: a card from before today says its day and time ("Yesterday 9:14 PM", "Tue 3:05 PM"), not a bare time as if it were today's; an event's start too. A report card (feed.item@1 1.2.0 stat) says when its number happened ("The most people on OpenVibe at once today, at 3:47 AM") and today's side numbers as chips (people today, signed in, page views, new accounts, live now).

Pictures that do not load leave no empty frame (the owner, 11-14: "broken images"): a feed card drops its picture box, a group row (a run of deals) shows its placeholder.

The footer's online box opens into a column (the owner, 11-14: "see the split of where the guests are … which sites they're on and what they're up to", "make them red" when live, "these cards also start stacking vertically"): someone live now wears a red ring and a LIVE badge with their viewers and links to their channel; the guests are one bar split by site (hover or focus a part for what people do there) with the parts in words; a Today line says the day's people and its peak, the peak's time in the reader's clock; open, the people are one per line and the tiles stack in two columns. An open box stays open across the minute's repaint. Reads Network's /api/frame/online guest_sites, people[].live and today (OpenVibe.Network #937).

.ov-places, a page's own places in one shape (kit-layout.css; the owner, 11-14, on Download: "move our tab to the top … a fixed tab system … icons … like our main menu area … so the layout can be reused for pages like this"): icon rows in a side column on a computer, a row of icon tabs that stays under the bar on a phone, counts as badges, an extra part (a meter) on the computer only.

Signed in is the person the bar shows (the owner, 11-14, on openvibe.download: the menu said "Sign in to make OpenVibe yours" under their own avatar): the guest card, the workspace and the menu's "me" follow the signed-in person, not a token; a site that signs in by its own session cookie has no token in the page.

Feature cards and questions, remade (showcase; the owner, 11-14, on OpenRestream: "redesign all these icons … use the full space … modern and minimalist … stands out"; the questions have "so much padding for no reason" and no space before the next block): a feature's icon is a filled tile on its own hue (six in turn down a grid), its glyph large, a ring icon without its ring; on a phone the tile sits beside the title and the words take the card's whole width. A question is a compact row (48 px) with a glyph (its own third item, or one its words suggest), whatever a site's own details rule says, and the block after a showcase section is spaced like a section.

Notifications read like a social feed (the owner, 11-14: "no spacing between them … confusing to have an X. Like, what does that do? … more like social media … rich content … the approval system can go through here"): every row the same card with room between, unread a tint and a dot at the right, a ⋯ menu (Mark as read, Remove this notice, Notification settings) instead of the bare X, and up to three buttons a notice brings in rich_content.actions ([{ label, url, style: primary|danger }], https only: Approve and Deny on an approval, Watch on a live notice).

Vibe is a conversation (ov-run.js and the menu; the owner, 11-14: "you see how it says now your agent's idle? You don't even need that … more like a conversation view … move this history … to a history button in the corner … the tabs … need to be above the actor. And the actor … a fixed thing that's on top, kind of like how Muse is"): All, Chats, Tasks and Code on top, your agent fixed under them (face, state, today's spend, History and Pause), and All opens today's conversation with it in place, with "Message Vibe" below. History lists every conversation, task and code run; pressed again, it is back to the conversation. The menu no longer lends the Dock's Now / Needs you / timeline above Vibe. The footer no longer names a live streamer twice (their row says LIVE; the channel tile goes).

One button system in every composer (ov-composer.js; the owner, 11-14: "How is the centering and offset of icons still such a problem?", "give them that more 3D look … the post button … completely customized … an animation", "the attached file should be just in the plus button"): the tools a + already holds (photos, files, the camera) were still drawn in the row wherever a box sat outside a thread page, because [hidden] lost to the button's own display; hidden now means gone everywhere. Every icon button is a 40 px disk lit from above, its glyph centred on a grid and never nudged; Post, Reply and the round send are their own lit buttons with a shine that crosses on hover, a press you can feel and the arrow lifting; nothing to send is a dim disk (not an outline); a one-line box centres its buttons. Motion Off keeps them still.

Signed in on one site, signed in on the next (navbar.js; the owner, 11-14: openvibe.tours showed Sign in though every other site had them signed in): a round trip that once found no session there (the 'guest' this script keeps) no longer stops the next one when the person arrives from another OpenVibe site; a sign-out (the site's own 'guest' cookie) still does. Once per tab per 10 minutes, as before.

The bar (navbar.js; the owner, 11-14): the menu button keeps the little input (its dot on the left and a typed line; the spark beside the dot, which read as two dots, and its pink are gone: every colour is the theme's) over its three tabs; signing in, a comet of light runs around the Sign in button's rim instead of a ring inside its glyph; and on every page a row that scrolls sideways (a rail, chips, tabs, pills, a strip, or data-ov-peek) peeks a little way and back the first time it is on screen, so it is plain that it scrolls (once per row; never under a finger; Calm less, Off never; data-ov-peek="off" opts out).

The menu's field and close (search.js; the owner, 11-14: "the close button's offset … more consistent with the search input", "the top thing … needs to be less round"): the field and its close share the kit's radius scale (a rounded rectangle, not a pill), the close is as tall as the field, centred on it, measured again once the sheet has slid in and when the window changes, and wears the field's surface and line. Vibe's strip above its list is quiet: only a timer, an agent at work or something that needs you shows (no idle line, no "Nothing needs you", no folds).

The menu's close (the owner, 11-14): closing no longer moves the page (the browser restores no scroll for the menu's own Back, and focus returns without scrolling); the close button folds home into the menu button, and a tab flies back into the button that opened it only while the menu still shows that tab.

A pressed button keeps its place (the owner, 11-14, Live's Chat button "shifts way down … makes you un-click it"): the forms press is scale: .97, not transform: scale(.97), which replaced any transform a site positioned a button with (centered, slid in). Checkboxes and Motion off likewise.
