Alongside Windows Terminal v1.12.1098, Microsoft has also released a new pre-release version of Terminal with Terminal Preview v1.13.1098. The latter carries over some of the fixes that are already GA now, plus it adds some more too. For example, a Windows 11 animation queue issue, a stubborn ContentDialog bug, and more, have been fixed in this release.
Find the full changelog below:
Appearance
- Our Maximize/Restore button is now a fine round boi (#12660)
Accessibility
- The profile list in the Settings UI now offers tooltips for long profile names (#12448)
- We'll automatically focus the window renamer textbox when it opens (#12798)
- High contrast will no longer result in a ridiculous and bad titlebar color (#12839)
- When you delete a color scheme, we'll move focus back to the color scheme list (#12841)
- Two instances of huge debug log spam with a screen reader connected have been stamped out (#12698) (#12723)
Usability
- We've added some text to the color schemes page indicating that it is for editing--not setting--color schemes (#12663)
- We're working to refine how color schemes are set and edited, so stay tuned for future improvements!
- The retro terminal effect (as well as other shaders) will now work on pre-D3D11 hardware! (#12677)
- Terminal will once again render properly when you move between different-DPI displays (#12713) (#12749)
- Resizing the window while a background color or underline is displayed will no longer smear it across the whole screen (#12637) plus a fix for a huge crash that PR introduced (#12853)
- It took us three releases to get it right, but we've finally solved the issue where we'd punch a hole straight through the Terminal when a dialog appeared (#12840)
Reliability
- There was an issue on Windows 11 where Terminal would queue up billions of animations while the screen was off; it will now no longer do so (#12820)
- We've fixed crashes in
ProposeCommandline(#12838),Monarch::_GetPID(#12856) and other parts of WT's RPC infrastructure (#12825)- On Windows 10, the settings UI will no longer sometimes crash on close (we've updated to a new build of WinUI 2 for the fix!) (#12847)
Miscellaneous
- Windows will no longer reject certain Terminal updates/reinstalls due to "differing package content" (#12779)
- Fragments can once again override the names of generated profiles (#12627)
- An issue from the 1073 series, where you could not upgrade the bundle using DISM, has been resolved (#12819)
- As a result, our bundle version is now over three thousand!
- @dmezh contributed some wording changes to the text about transparency/opacity (#12592) (#12727) (thanks!)
- Some trailing commas that broke the JSON Schema document are no longer trailing, or present at all (#12644) (thanks @sowmya-hub!)
