What is the enhancement in mind? How should it look and feel?

One thing I liked about Cart2 was the option to set the border alpha to 0 (which would also set the non-active (adjacent) zones' alpha to 0).  The visual effect was that of the current zone map to appear as a HUD-style map.  There currently is an option for the map border to either always show it or only show it on mouseover.  I'd like to be able to hide it permanently.  Similarly, I'd like to have an option for the map display to `fade out' near the border, so that there is no sharp edge on the map where it's cut-off by the display.  I'm thinking that it might be possible to perhaps implement this as a mask, thus giving users the possibility to change the shape of the soft-edge zone.

Please provide any additional information below.

If needed, I can provide screenshots of the Cart2 setup I have to clarify my idea.

PS: At the very least, I'd like the option to change from 'always show border' to 'never show border'. For the moment, I'm going to go into the code and change that for my own copy.

Temporary solution: Change line 1455 from

--if db.alwaysShowBorder or moving or mouseDown or Cartographer3_Utils.IsMouseHovering(mapFrame) then

to

if db.alwaysShowBorder or moving or mouseDown then
