e13d6a78aa CmdPal: Set image to surface immediately in BlurImageControl (#44222)
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR resolves issue when the background image is not loaded. When
loading an image, BlurImageControl now sets the image to the surface
immediately, as the LoadComplete handler is not guaranteed to be called.

73786cd2be CmdPal: Add drag & drop support (#44165)
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR adds basic drag-and-drop support for items in list and grid
views.

It introduces two new properties on `ListItem`, backed by
`IExtendedAttributesProvider`: `DataPackage` and `DataPackageView`.
These properties are mutually exclusive.
`DataPackage` serves as a convenience property allowing the item to
retain the underlying object without risk of losing it. Across the
extension boundary, only the immutable `DataPackageView` snapshot is
transferred. When `DataPackage` is set, `DataPackageView` is derived
from it.

This PR includes initial concrete drag-and-drop implementations for:
- File Indexer  
- Clipboard History  

**Todo / Missing pieces** 
- [x] Extend `DataPackage` support to top-level command items, enabling
scenarios such as index fallback ~
- [x] Provide automatic drag-and-drop for unconfigured list items (e.g.,
copying title and subtitle as text)
- [x] Keep CmdPal open
- [ ] ~Clipboard commands (since we have the DataPackage...)~
- [ ] ~Improve logging~

## Pictures? Moving ones!

4de4d5f310 [Advanced Paste] Fix clipboard history item duplication when selecting items (#44212)
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request
Fixes an issue where clicking on a clipboard history item creates a
duplicate entry at the top of the history.
## Problem

When a user clicks on a clipboard history item in the Advanced Paste
clipboard history menu, the item gets duplicated to the top of the
history. This makes it impossible to delete items since clicking the
three-dots menu to delete first duplicates the item.

## Root Cause

The `ClipboardHistory_ItemInvoked` handler was using
`ClipboardHelper.SetTextContent()` and
`ClipboardHelper.SetImageContent()`, which internally call
`Clipboard.SetContentWithOptions()`. This creates a new clipboard
history entry with the same content.

## Solution

Use `Clipboard.SetHistoryItemAsContent(ClipboardHistoryItem)` instead,
which sets the clipboard content from an existing history item without
creating a new history entry.

d32ea86314 [Peek] Use WebView2 for SVG preview to improve compatibility (#44209)
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request
Improves SVG preview compatibility in Peek by using WebView2 instead of
`SvgImageSource`.
## Problem

`SvgImageSource` has limited SVG feature support and fails to render
SVGs with advanced features like `clipPath`, complex gradients, or
certain namespace configurations. This results in black previews or
icon-only display for many SVG files.

## Solution

Render SVG files using WebView2 which provides full SVG specification
support through the browser engine.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

Since `CollectionViewSource` was causing performance issues and
@zadjii-msft asked for a new approach, I came up with this idea, heavily
inspired by how separators work on the `ContextMenu`, `FiltersDropDown`
and `Details`.

The way this is currently working is: Any ListItem where `Section` is
not null and `Command` is null, is considered a Separator.

On my tests, this seems to be working fine. Tried to make this work
without changes to the API, but I think this needs to be discussed.

Here's how it looks like:
```csharp
new ListItem(new NoOpCommand())
{
    Title = "Details on ListItems (Medium)",
    Details = new Details()
    {
        Title = "This item has medium details size",
        Body = "Each of these items can have a `Body` formatted with **Markdown**",
        Size = ContentSize.Medium,
    },

## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR introduces user settings for app mode themes (dark, light, or
system) and background customization options, including custom colors,
system accent colors, or custom images.

- Adds a new page to the Settings window with new appearance settings
and moves some existing settings there as well.
- Introduces a new core-level service abstraction, `IThemeService`, that
holds the state for the current theme.
- Uses the helper class `ResourceSwapper` to update application-level
XAML resources. The way WinUI / XAML handles these is painful, and XAML
Hot Reload is pain². Initialization must be lazy, as XAML resources can
only be accessed after the window is activated.
- `ThemeService` takes app and system settings and selects one of the
registered `IThemeProvider`s to calculate visuals and choose the
appropriate XAML resources.
  - At the moment, there are two:
    - `NormalThemeProvider`
      - Provides the current uncolorized light and dark styles  
      - `ms-appx:///Styles/Theme.Normal.xaml`
    - `ColorfulThemeProvider`
- Style that matches the Windows 11 visual style (based on the Start
menu) and colors
      - `ms-appx:///Styles/Theme.Colorful.xaml`  
- Applied when the background is colorized or a background image is
selected
- The app theme is applied only on the main window
(`WindowThemeSynchronizer` helper class can be used to synchronize other
windows if needed).
- Adds a new dependency on `Microsoft.Graphics.Win2D`.
- Adds a custom color picker popup; the one from the Community Toolkit
occasionally loses the selected color.
- Flyby: separates the keyword tag and localizable label for pages in
the Settings window navigation.

73e379238b Add FancyZones CLI for command-line layout management (#44078)
<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request
Adds a new command-line interface (CLI) tool for FancyZones, enabling
users and automation scripts to manage window layouts without the GUI.

**Commands:**
| Command | Aliases | Description |
|---------|---------|-------------|
| `help` | | Displays general help information for all commands |
| `open-editor` | `editor`, `e` | Launch FancyZones layout editor |
| `get-monitors` | `monitors`, `m` | List all monitors and their
properties |
| `get-layouts` | `layouts`, `ls` | List all available layouts with
ASCII art preview |
| `get-active-layout` | `active`, `a` | Show currently active layout |
| `set-layout <uuid>` | `set`, `s` | Apply layout by UUID or template
name |
| `open-settings` | `settings` | Open FancyZones settings page |
| `get-hotkeys` | `hotkeys`, `hk` | List all layout hotkeys |
| `set-hotkey <key> <uuid>` | `shk` | Assign hotkey (0-9) to custom
layout |
| `remove-hotkey <key>` | `rhk` | Remove hotkey assignment |

**Key Capabilities:**
- ASCII art visualization of layouts (grid, focus, priority-grid,
canvas)
- Support for both template layouts and custom layouts
- Monitor-specific layout targeting (`--monitor N` or `--all`)
- Real-time notification to FancyZones via Windows messages
- Native AOT compilation support for fast startup

### Example Usage

```bash
# List all layouts with visual previews
FancyZonesCLI.exe ls

# Apply "columns" template to all monitors
FancyZonesCLI.exe s columns --all

# Set custom layout on monitor 2
FancyZonesCLI.exe s {uuid} --monitor 2

# Assign hotkey Win+Ctrl+Alt+3 to a layout
FancyZonesCLI.exe shk 3 {uuid}
```

4710b816b4 [CmdPal] Optimise MainListPage's results display by merging already-sorted lists (#44126)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR replaces the current LINQ-based results compilation query of
combining, sorting and filtering the four result sources with a 3-way
merge operation plus a final append. It provides a performance increase
as well as a significant reduction in allocations.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
The existing code:
1. Limits the number of apps returned to a pre-defined maximum.
2. Sorts the apps list.
3. Appends filtered items, scored fallback items and the apps list
together.
4. Sorts the three lists based on their score.
5. Appends the non-scored fallback items, with empty items excluded.
6. Selects just the `Item` from each.
7. Creates an array from the enumerable.

```csharp
    if (_filteredApps?.Count > 0)
    {
        limitedApps = _filteredApps.OrderByDescending(s => s.Score).Take(_appResultLimit).ToList();
    }

    var items = Enumerable.Empty<Scored<IListItem>>()
                          .Concat(_filteredItems is not null ? _filteredItems : [])
                          .Concat(_scoredFallbackItems is not null ? _scoredFallbackItems : [])
                          .Concat(limitedApps)
                          .OrderByDescending(o => o.Score)

                          // Add fallback items post-sort so they are always at the end of the list
                          // and eventually ordered based on user preference
                          .Concat(_fallbackItems is not null ? _fallbackItems.Where(w => !string.IsNullOrEmpty(w.Item.Title)) : [])
                          .Select(s => s.Item)
                          .ToArray();
```

We can exploit the fact that each of the three 'scored' lists are
pre-ordered, and replace the query with a 3-way merge and final append
of the non-scored fallback items.

By pre-sizing the results array we can avoid all the extra allocations
of the LINQ-based solution.

### Proof of pre-ordering
In `UpdateSearchText`, each of the lists is defined by calling
`ListHelpers.FilterListWithScores`:

```csharp
    // Produce a list of everything that matches the current filter.
    _filteredItems = [.. ListHelpers.FilterListWithScores<IListItem>(newFilteredItems ?? [], SearchText, scoreItem)];
```

```csharp
    _scoredFallbackItems = ListHelpers.FilterListWithScores<IListItem>(newFallbacksForScoring ?? [], SearchText, scoreItem);
```

```csharp
    var scoredApps = ListHelpers.FilterListWithScores<IListItem>(newApps, SearchText, scoreItem);

...

    _filteredApps = [.. scoredApps];
```

In `FilterListWithScores`, the results are ordered by score:

```csharp
   var scores = items
        .Select(li => new Scored<T>() { Item = li, Score = scoreFunction(query, li) })
        .Where(score => score.Score > 0)
        .OrderByDescending(score => score.Score);
```

(This also makes the existing `OrderByDescending()` for `_filteredApps`
before the LINQ query redundant.)

### K-way merge
Since the results are pre-sorted, we can do a direct merge in linear
time. This is what the new `MainListPageResultFactory`'s `Create`
achieves. As the lists may be different sizes, the routine does a 3-way
merge, followed by a 2-way merge and a single list drain to finish. Each
element is only visited once.

### Benchmarks
A separate benchmark project is
[here](https://github.com/daverayment/MainListBench), written with
Benchmark.net.

The project compares the current LINQ-based solution against:
1. An Array-based algorithm which pre-assigns a results array and still
sorts the 3 scored sets of results. This shows a naive non-LINQ solution
which is still _O(n log n)_ because of the sort.
2. The k-way merge, which is described above. _O(n)_ for both time and
space complexity.
3. A heap merge algorithm, which uses a priority queue instead of
tracking each of the lists separately. (This is _O(n log k)_ in terms of
time complexity and _O(n + k)_ for space.)

Care is taken to ensure stable sorting of items. When preparing the
benchmark data, items with identical scores are assigned to confirm each
algorithm performs identically to the LINQ `OrderBy` approach, which
performs a stable sort.

Results show that the merge performs best in terms of both runtime
performance and allocations, sometimes by a significant margin. Compared
to the LINQ approach, merge runs 400%+ faster and with at most ~20% of
the allocations:

### Cons

1. Existing performance is not currently an issue. This could be seen as
a premature optimisation.
2. The new code introduces an inherent contract between the results
compilation routine and the lists, i.e. that they must be sorted.

This PR was really for research and learning more about CmdPal (and a
bit of algorithm practice because it's Advent of Code time), so please
feel free to reject if you feel the cons outweigh the pros.

## Validation Steps Performed
- Added unit tests to exercise the new code, which confirm that the
specific ordering is preserved, and the filtering and pre-trimming of

<!-- Enter a brief description/summary of your PR here. What does it
fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)?
-->
## Summary of the Pull Request
The old implementation checked
`HKLM\Software\Classes\powertoys\InstallScope` first. If this key
existed (even as a remnant from incomplete uninstall), it would
immediately return `PerMachine` without validating the actual
installation.

### Fix
- Uses Windows standard Uninstall registry (most reliable source of
truth)
- Identifies PowerToys Bundle by exact `BundleUpgradeCode` GUID match 
- MSI component entries (always in HKLM) are automatically ignored since
they don't have `BundleUpgradeCode`
- Checks HKCU first, then HKLM, properly handling the fact that Bundle
location reflects true install scope

60deec6815 Using centralized package management for vcxproj (#43920)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This pull request updates the build system for several native and
managed projects, modernizing NuGet package management and improving
code analysis configuration. The main changes involve switching from
legacy `packages.config` and manual `.props`/`.targets` imports to
PackageReference style for native projects, updating package versions,
and streamlining code analysis settings.

**Build system modernization and package management:**

* Migrated native projects (`PowerToys.MeasureToolCore.vcxproj`,
`FindMyMouse.vcxproj`) from legacy `packages.config` and manual
`.props`/`.targets` imports to NuGet PackageReference style, simplifying
dependency management and build configuration. This includes removing
the `packages.config` file and related import/error logic, and
introducing `PackageReference` items for required packages.

* Updated the centralized package versions in
`Directory.Packages.props`, adding new entries for `boost`,
`boost_regex-vc143`, `Microsoft.Windows.ImplementationLibrary`, and
`Microsoft.WindowsAppSDK.Foundation` to support the new build system and
dependencies.

**Code analysis improvements:**

* Added configuration to both native and managed projects
(`PowerToys.MeasureToolCore.vcxproj`, `MeasureToolUI.csproj`) to
suppress specific warnings (81010002) and exclude NuGet cache files from
code analysis, reducing noise and improving build performance.

**Project reference and output handling:**

* Updated the managed project (`MeasureToolUI.csproj`) to handle native
project outputs more robustly, ensuring the WinMD and DLL files are
available at runtime and configuring the project reference to avoid
assembly reference issues.

**Compiler configuration:**

* Enhanced C++ compiler settings in `Cpp.Build.props` to treat
angle-bracket includes as external, disable warnings and analysis for
external headers, and optimize build performance.

7e791f2815 [ImageResizer] Fix Fill mode not cropping image when Shrink Only was engaged and scale was 1 (#43855)
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR fixes an Image Resizer issue where **Fill** mode operations were
silently aborted when **Shrink Only** was enabled (the default) and
scale was 1.0 on one dimension, resulting in files that were renamed
according to the intended target size but which actually contained the
original, unmodified image.

This also fixes a latent bug regarding square images and the **Ignore
Orientation** setting, and improves the readability of the core
`Transform` method.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
### Fix **Shrink Only** logic preventing the correct cropping of images
**Issue:**
When using **Fill** mode, the scaling factor is calculated based on the
larger dimension to ensure the image fills the target box. In scenarios
where one dimension matches the target and the other overflows (e.g.
shrinking a 100x100 pixel image to 50x100), the calculated scale factor
is `1.0`.

The previous `ShrinkOnly` logic included this:

```csharp
if (_settings.ShrinkOnly
        && _settings.SelectedSize.Unit != ResizeUnit.Percent
        && (scaleX >= 1 || scaleY >= 1))
    {
        return source;
    }
```

This correctly prevents `ShrinkOnly` operations from returning upscaled
result images, but it also exits too early for cases where the user is
cropping the image across one dimension only, leaving the other at scale
1. Effectively, the later cropping code is never run and instead of
returning the cropped image, the original is returned. The _intended_
target dimensions are correct, which results in the filename parts not
matching the resulting image size.

**Fix:**
The logic has been split between upscaling and cropping, so:

1. If the scale on either dimension is > `1.0`, return the source
(explicitly preventing upscaling for **Shrink Only** mode).
2. If the scale is <= `1.0` then check if the original dimensions exceed
the target dimensions. If a crop is required, proceed with it even if
the scale is exactly `1.0`.

### Fix for square images triggering orientation swap
**Issue:**
The "Ignore Orientation" check in the original code used a compound
boolean check:

```csharp
(originalWidth < originalHeight != width < height)
```

This clever but less than readable statement detects orientation
mismatches. The section also includes a logic issue. When the original
image was square, `originalWidth < originalHeight` evaluated to `false`,
treating it as Landscape. If the target dimensions were Portrait, the
logic detected a mismatch and swapped the target dimensions incorrectly,
which would crop the height instead of the width.

'Fortunately' this bug was masked by the first bug, as the crop code
would never be reached anyway.

**Fix:**
The orientation detection routine was refactored to explicitly check for
Landscape vs. Portrait states. Square images are now naturally excluded,
as they have neither Landscape nor Portrait orientations. This now
prevents the dimensions from being swapped.

### Refactoring/readability
The main `Transform` method has been cleaned up:

- Replaced widespread use of `var` with `double` and `int` for dimension
and scale calculations.
- Replaced the non-obvious XOR orientation check (`a < b != c < d`) with
named booleans (`isInputLandscape`, `isTargetPortrait` etc.) to make the
intent more self-documenting.
- New and expanded comments throughout.

<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests
wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed
Three new unit tests have been added to `ResizeOperationTests.cs` to
cover the **Fill** mode edge cases:

1. `TransformHonorsFillWithShrinkOnlyWhenCropRequired`: Verifies than an
image requiring a crop but no scaling is processed correctly (tests that
the original bug report is resolved).
2. `TransformHonorsFillWithShrinkOnlyWhenUpscaleAttempted`: Confirms
that when `ShrinkOnly` is set, any upscaling operations are still
blocked.
3. `TransformHonorsFillWithShrinkOnlyWhenNoChangeRequired`: Verifies
that the system returns the source if neither scaling nor cropping is
required.

I also manually verified the bug fix with a test 4000 x 6000 pixel
source file with 1920 x `Auto` **Fill** mode and **Shrink Only**
settings, mirroring the original user's settings, and their source and
target dimensions.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

**Clipboard color detection and conversion:**

* Added `ClipboardItemHelper.IsRgbHexColor` method using a compiled
regex to identify valid hex color strings in clipboard text.

* Introduced `HexColorConverterHelper.ConvertHexColorToRgb` utility to
convert hex color strings to `Windows.UI.Color`, handling both 3-digit
and 6-digit formats.

**UI enhancements for color previews:**

* Updated `ClipboardHistoryItemPreviewControl` to include a color
preview grid that displays an ellipse filled with the detected color and
the color code as text, using the new `HexColorToBrushConverter`.

* Modified logic in `ClipboardHistoryItemPreviewControl.xaml.cs` to
ensure color previews are shown only for detected color items and to
adjust visibility of text and glyph previews accordingly.

**Unit tests for color detection and conversion:**

* Added unit tests for hex color conversion
(`HexColorToColorConverterTests.cs`) and color detection logic
(`ClipboardItemHelperTests.cs`) to verify correct behavior for valid,
invalid, and edge-case inputs.

e68526b8d8 CmdPal: Add configuration option for Escape key behavior (#43354)
## Summary of the Pull Request

This PR adds a new option to the **General** page in **Settings**:

Escape key behavior — a dropdown with the following choices:

- Clear search first, then go back
  - Current behavior.
  - If the search box contains text, it is cleared; otherwise goes back.
  - On the home page, CmdPal is dismissed.

- Go back
  - Leaves the search text intact.
- If the page is not transient, the search text reappears when
returning.
  - On the home page, CmdPal is dismissed.

- Hide window and go home (Always dismiss)
  - Immediately dismisses CmdPal and navigates to the home page.
  - Ignores the **Go home when activated** setting.
  - Search text is cleared.

- Hide window
  - Just hides the window.
  - Intended to be used with #43355.

This implementation preserves existing behavior, except for **Always
dismiss**, which always forces navigation to the home page.

5f6df35d8d Add semantic headings to Dashboard page for accessibility (#42438)
## Summary

Fixes #37668 by adding proper semantic heading structure to the
Dashboard (Home) page, enabling screen reader users to navigate the page
efficiently using heading shortcuts.

## Problem

The Dashboard page lacked semantic heading elements, making it difficult
for users of assistive technologies to understand the page structure and
navigate between sections. When using screen readers with heading
navigation (H key in scan mode), no headings were announced, violating
WCAG 2.2 Success Criterion 1.3.1 (Info and Relationships).

## Solution

Added `AutomationProperties.HeadingLevel` attributes to provide proper
heading hierarchy:

1. **Dashboard Title** - Marked as Level 1 (H1) heading
- Added `AutomationProperties.HeadingLevel="1"` to the "Home" page title
   - Follows the same pattern as `SettingsPageControl.xaml`

2. **Card Titles** - Marked as Level 2 (H2) headings  
- Added `AutomationProperties.HeadingLevel="Level2"` to the Card
component
- Applies to all card sections: "Quick Access", "Shortcuts Overview",
and "Utilities"
   - Follows the same pattern as `SettingsGroup.xaml`

## Resulting Structure

```
H1: Home (Dashboard Title)
├─ H2: Quick Access
├─ H2: Shortcuts Overview  
└─ H2: Utilities
```

## Impact

- Screen reader users can now use heading navigation (H key) to jump
between sections on the Dashboard page
- Provides proper document structure that follows WCAG 2.2 Level A
guidelines
- No visual or functional changes - only accessibility metadata added
- Consistent with existing accessibility patterns used throughout the
Settings UI

## Testing

- Changes follow existing patterns in `SettingsPageControl.xaml` (Level
1) and `SettingsGroup.xaml` (Level 2)
- Only XAML accessibility attributes added - no code logic changes
- Minimal, surgical changes: 2 lines across 2 files
