Description:
Introduce a clock/timer widget that can remain visible at all times, even in fullscreen mode. It should show global time-related settings such as session length, remaining time, or current clock.
Problem:
Currently, Loopy Pro’s clock is hidden behind a popup and not always visible during performance. This makes it difficult for users—especially live performers—to track elapsed or remaining time, and to manage their set intuitively.
Proposed Solution:
  • Add a dedicated clock widget that can be placed anywhere on the canvas, including in fullscreen view.
  • Allow the widget to show elapsed time, remaining set duration, or even device stats like battery level (similar to TouchOSC or iStat Menus).
  • Provide customization options: font size, color, weight, individual per word or field.
  • Include optional timer modes (countdown/up) and actions to start/stop/reset or multiply/divide the tempo via widget or MIDI.
  • Optional: let the widget act as a text placeholder to display time contextually.
Benefits:
  • Live performers can better monitor timing during sets without breaking flow or triggering popups.
  • Enhances precision for users who rely on time-based transitions or set lengths.
  • Useful for rehearsals, recording sessions, and live shows.
  • Highly flexible as a customizable UI element for both aesthetic and practical use.
