 is not required, but recommended. Without it, locking shows the current screen.

+Hyprlock uses the following types in addition to [Hyprland's variable types](../../Configuring/Variables#Variable_types).

+| type | description |
+| -- | -- |
+| layoutxy | vec2 with an optional `%` suffix, allowing users to specify sizes as percentages of the output size.  |

@ -218,6 +275,7 @@ Behaviour of `swap_font_color` is as follows:

 - `outline_thickness` is `0`: if set, font color will be swapped with inner one on color change events (e.g. Caps-lock on or password check).
 - `outline_thickness` is not `0`: if set, font and inner colors will be swapped on password check and authentication failure.
+- `swap_font_color` will narrow the accent colors from a gradient to a single color by using the first specified color.
