The summit app for mobile (which is the community you are posting this request in) already has this excellent feature.
I thought there was a setting I missed but it just straight doesn't work on my end: https://youtube.com/shorts/wTYZ8ACkLiA Is there any debug menus I should look into or any technical details I could give?
Based on the video it looks like you are running into a bug where some animation is getting stuck. It's likely a bug caused by some combination of settings. Can you please provide the settings you are using? To share your settings, go to Settings > Import & Export settings > Copy settings for debugging and then paste the text here or you can DM me. Thank you!
Hmm, I see what you're saying.
I could be wrong, but that doesn't look like the Summit app to me (at least not the way mine looks). Sorry if this is a redundant question, but are you actually using the Summit app?
