Gordon Lam	914f2281c3	feat(advancedpaste): add auto-copy selection for custom action hotkeys (#44767) ... <!-- 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 Boosting productivity #2x. Customer mentioned with Custom Action (Shortcut trigger) "We should not need to do two keyboard actions to finish this awesome AI data transformation, instead, just single shortcut should do copy + advanced paste." This pull request introduces a new feature to the Advanced Paste module that allows users to automatically copy the current selection when triggering a custom action hotkey. The changes include backend logic for sending the copy command, updates to configuration and settings management, and UI additions to expose this option to users. ### Feature Addition: Auto-Copy Selection for Custom Action Hotkeys * Added a new boolean setting, `AutoCopySelectionForCustomActionHotkey`, to both the backend (`dllmain.cpp`, `AdvancedPasteProperties.cs`) and the settings UI, allowing users to enable or disable automatic copying of the current selection when a custom action hotkey is pressed.

Thanh Nguyen	2be4c4eb46	Fix CursorWrap "Automatically activate on utility startup" setting not persisting (#45210) ... ## Summary of the Pull Request Fixes #45185 - CursorWrap "Automatically activate on utility startup" setting cannot be disabled, and prevents spurious activation on startup. ## PR Checklist - [x] Closes: #45185 - [x] **Communication:** Issue was reported by community; fix follows established patterns from MousePointerCrosshairs - [x] **Tests:** Manual validation performed by contributor (video available) - [x] **Localization:** No new user-facing strings added - [ ] **Dev docs:** N/A - bug fix only - [ ] **New binaries:** N/A - no new binaries - [ ] **Documentation updated:** N/A - bug fix only ## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments ### Problem Users reported that disabling the "Automatically activate on utility startup" setting for CursorWrap does not work - the mouse hook always starts automatically regardless of the setting value. ### Root Causes 1. **`dllmain.cpp` `enable()` method**: `StartMouseHook()` was always called unconditionally, ignoring `m_autoActivate`. 2. **`MouseUtilsViewModel.cs` `IsCursorWrapEnabled` setter**: enabling CursorWrap forced `AutoActivate = true`, overriding the user's preference. 3. **Startup edge case**: the trigger event could remain signaled from a previous session, immediately toggling CursorWrap on startup even when AutoActivate is off. ### Solution 1. **`src/modules/MouseUtils/CursorWrap/dllmain.cpp`**: only start the mouse hook if `m_autoActivate` is true. 2. **`src/settings-ui/Settings.UI/ViewModels/MouseUtilsViewModel.cs`**: remove the line that forced `AutoActivate = true` when enabling CursorWrap. 3. **`src/modules/MouseUtils/CursorWrap/dllmain.cpp`**: reset the trigger event on enable to avoid immediate activation on startup. ### Pattern Reference This fix follows the same pattern used by **MousePointerCrosshairs** module which has a similar `AutoActivate` setting that works correctly. ## Validation Steps Performed ### Build - `tools\build\build.ps1 -Platform x64 -Configuration Debug` ### Manual validation (contributor) #### Test Case 1: AutoActivate = false (should NOT auto-start mouse hook) 1. Open PowerToys Settings → Mouse Utilities → Cursor Wrap 2. Enable Cursor Wrap 3. **Disable** "Automatically activate on utility startup" 4. Close PowerToys completely (right-click tray icon → Exit) 5. Restart PowerToys 6. **Expected Result**: CursorWrap module is loaded but mouse hook is NOT active - cursor does NOT wrap at screen edges 7. Press activation hotkey (default: `Win+Alt+U`) 8. **Expected Result**: Mouse hook activates, cursor now wraps at screen edges 9. **Actual Result**: ✅ Works as expected #### Test Case 2: AutoActivate = true (should auto-start mouse hook) 1. Open PowerToys Settings → Mouse Utilities → Cursor Wrap 2. Enable Cursor Wrap 3. **Enable** "Automatically activate on utility startup" 4. Close PowerToys completely 5. Restart PowerToys 6. **Expected Result**: Mouse hook is immediately active, cursor wraps at screen edges without pressing hotkey 7. **Actual Result**: ✅ Works as expected #### Test Case 3: Setting persistence after restart 1. Set AutoActivate = false, restart PowerToys 2. Open Settings and verify AutoActivate is still false 3. Set AutoActivate = true, restart PowerToys 4. Open Settings and verify AutoActivate is still true 5. **Actual Result**: ✅ Setting persists correctly #### Test Case 4: Hotkey toggle works correctly 1. With AutoActivate = false, restart PowerToys 2. Press hotkey → cursor should start wrapping 3. Press hotkey again → cursor should stop wrapping 4. **Actual Result**: ✅ Hotkey toggle works correctly --- **Note**: Video demonstration available from contributor.	2026-02-05 19:58:49 +08:00

Support feature list: Common: 1. Profiles support 2. Integration with LightSwitch (auto switch profile when theme change) 3. TrayIcon 4. Save and restore settings when startup 5. Shortcut 6. Rotation 7. GPO support 8. Auto re-discovery monitor when plugging and unplugging monitors. 9. Identify Monitors 10. Quick profile switch Especially for DDC/CI monitor: 1. Brightness 2. Contrast 3.

Power State (poweroff) Design doc: https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/blob/yuleng/display/pr/3/doc/devdocs/modules/powerdisplay/design.md AOT compatibility: I designed this module for AOT from the start, so I'm pretty sure at least 95% of it is AOT compatible. But unfortunately, PowerToys still have a AOT blocker to block this module publish with AOT. Currently PowerToys will check the .net file version (file version not lib version) to avoid crash. So, all modules should reference Common.UI or add UseWPF to avoid overwrite the .net file with different version (which may cause crash).

Transparency is applied on a best-effort basis and depends on how the target app/window is built and rendered. ## When it may not work * Windows with special rendering pipelines (e.g., certain hardware-accelerated / compositor-managed surfaces). * Some tool/popup/owned windows where the foreground window isn’t the actual surface being drawn. ## How it works (high-level) * Resolve the best target window (preferring the top-level/root window over transient children). * Apply Windows’ standard layered-window alpha mechanism (per-window opacity) to adjust transparency. * When unpinned, Restore the original opacity/state when possible. If transparency doesn’t change, it means the window doesn’t support this mechanism in its current configuration. <!-- Please review the items on the PR checklist before submitting--> ## PR Checklist - [X] Closes: #43278 #42929 #28773 <!-- - [ ] Closes: #yyy (add separate lines for additional resolved issues) --> - [ ] **Communication:** I've discussed this with core contributors already.

Gleb Khmyznikov	53c5e66cce	[UI Tests][Light Switch] Fix tests: LS, Hosts, Worspaces, Mouse (#44754) ... This pull request refactors the LightSwitch module to introduce a new shared static library, `LightSwitchLib`, which centralizes theme management logic and enables code sharing between the service and module interface. The changes move theme-related code from the service and module interface into this new library, update project references, and clean up now-redundant files and includes. **LightSwitchLib introduction and code deduplication:** - Added a new static library project, `LightSwitchLib`, containing all theme management logic (`SetSystemTheme`, `SetAppsTheme`, `GetCurrentSystemTheme`, `GetCurrentAppsTheme`, `IsNightLightEnabled`) and related files (`ThemeHelper.cpp`, `ThemeHelper.h`, `pch.h`, `pch.cpp`). This code was previously duplicated in both the service and module interface.

Shawn Yuan	0314a709f5	Optimize the module list logic (#44628) ... <!-- 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 This pull request refactors how module enable/disable state changes are handled in the settings UI, centralizing and simplifying the logic for updating and notifying these changes. The main improvements include unifying the callback mechanism for enable state changes, reducing code duplication, and making the update process more robust against circular updates. **Refactoring and Simplification of Enable State Handling:** * Introduced a unified `EnabledChangedCallback` and `UpdateStatus` method in the base `ModuleListItem` class to handle enable/disable state changes and notifications, replacing redundant logic in derived classes like `FlyoutMenuItem` and `DashboardListItem`.

While this is true, PowerToys goal always was to improve and speed up workflows. Instead of capturing the screenshot, opening it, and then apply "Crop and Lock" or "Always on Top" on the screenshots window, this PR aims to provide this functionality in a single step. Example use cases: - _when I want to compare between two situations like previous output result and current output result._ (#31799) - _Allow cropping a section of a large code file (say top while working at the bottom) as reference while working elsewhere in the file._ (#33071) - _Can be useful for the work in the same document, like excel or word where you are actively checking the data from the same document._ (#28633) - _In lot's of older applications, if you need to get some information or data from one dialog do another, but because of dialog modality it's not possible to have both windows open at the same time._ (#33812) - _nowadays quite a lot is happening inside the browser. Quite often, I want to keep a small portion of the current website visible and switch to e.g. the writing tool also running in a different tab in the same browser window._ (#31799) I've used win+ctrl+shift+s as the default activation shortcut, as it's not yet used by other powertoys utilities, has similarity with the normal win+shift+s shortcut hotkey and is consistent with the other Crop and Lock shortcuts win+ctrl+shift+r (Reparent Mode) and win+ctrl+shift+t (Thumbnail Mode). <!-- Describe how you validated the behavior.

Add automated tests wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well --> ## Validation Steps Performed ## AI Generated Note: This pull request refactors and improves how endpoint handling is managed for different AI service types in the `AdvancedPastePage.xaml.cs` file. The changes centralize the logic for determining whether an endpoint is required, prevent persisting placeholder or stale endpoint values for services that do not use them, and ensure placeholder values are only provided where appropriate. **Refactoring and logic centralization:** * Introduced the `RequiresEndpointForService` helper method to centralize and clarify the logic for determining if a service type requires an endpoint, replacing inline checks in multiple places.

Copilot	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 ## References - Issue: #37668 - WCAG 2.2: [Success Criterion 1.3.1 - Info and Relationships](https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG22/Understanding/info-and-relationships) <!-- START COPILOT CODING AGENT SUFFIX --> <details> <summary>Original prompt</summary> > > ---- > > *This section details on the original issue you should resolve* > > <issue_title>No Heading Defined on the Home Page.</issue_title> > <issue_description>### Microsoft PowerToys version > > v0.94.2 > > ### Installation method > > PowerToys auto-update > > ### Area(s) with issue? > > New+ > > ### Steps to reproduce > > **Repro Steps:** > > 1.

Module list glitching when toggling enabled state When enabling or disabling a module from the "Utilities" list, the entire list would flicker and redraw, causing other toggles to glitch. This made it appear as if multiple modules were being affected by a single change. **Root cause** The `AllModules` ObservableCollection was being completely cleared and re-populated on every change, forcing the UI to destroy and recreate all list items. **Fix** Refactored collection updates to modify items in-place: - Introduced `_moduleItems` master list, built once during initialization. - `RefreshModuleList()` now updates properties without clearing collections - `SortModuleList()` uses `ObservableCollection.Move()` instead of `Clear()`/`Add()` #### 2. Incorrect sort menu checkmark behaviour The checkmark in the "Sort by" menu would not update correctly when changing sort order, sometimes showing the incorrect item checked, or even both at once. **Root cause** The `IsChecked` prop on the `ToggleMenuFlyoutItem` is bound to `DashboardSortOrder`, but the binding was not updating because the ViewModel didn't raise a property change notification when the sort order was changed. **Fix** Added `OnPropertyChanged(nameof(DashboardSortOrder))` in `SortModuleList()`. ### Code quality improvements 1. Renamed `GetShortcutModules()` to `RefreshShortcutModules()`. The original name implied a getter, but the routine actually affects state by rebuilding the shortcut and action lists, violating the Command-Query Separation principle. 2. Added an `_isUpdatingFromUI` flag as a defensive measure against circular updates when a UI toggle is changed. 3. Separation of concerns for operations on the modules list. Building, sorting and refreshing it are separated. 4. Added comments and XML doc headers for new methods. Included brief description of GPO locking behaviour. <!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well --> ## Validation Steps Performed - Verified that toggling modules in the list no longer causes the list to flicker or for other toggles to glitch. - Confirmed that the sort order checkmarks update correctly and reflect the current sort order. - Tested GPO policy settings are still queried as before. - Checked sort behaviour is unaffected. ## Videos *Sorting UI* https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3484bf63-2946-4460-83a5-361fa7e41c82 *Toggle behaviour* https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1fae5429-6fa3-4431-80f3-0907dab4f326 --------- Co-authored-by: Gordon Lam (SH) <yeelam@microsoft.com>	2025-11-19 16:49:40 +08:00

What does it fix/what does it change/how was it tested (even manually, if necessary)? --> ## Summary of the Pull Request - The OOBE Mouse Utilities page crashed when selected because the TextBlock with x:Uid="Oobe_MouseUtils_MousePointerCrosshairs" tried to bind a Description property that doesn’t exist. - Updated Resources.resw so the string entry is named Oobe_MouseUtils_MousePointerCrosshairs_Description.Text, matching the markdown description control instead of the TextBlock. - With the correct resource key, the XAML loader no longer resolves an invalid property and navigation succeeds. <!-- Please review the items on the PR checklist before submitting--> ## PR Checklist - [x] Closes: #43663 <!-- - [ ] Closes: #yyy (add separate lines for additional resolved issues) --> - [ ] **Communication:** I've discussed this with core contributors already.
