Aug 1, 2025Monthly summary for 2025-08 (finos/SymphonyElectron): Delivered targeted window-management enhancements with a focus on reliability, visual stability, and user experience; these changes are aligned with business value by reducing UX friction and support load while strengthening core functionality. Key features delivered: - Window Taskbar Visibility on Activation: Improved main window taskbar visibility and ensured the window is shown rather than hidden in the system tray on activation. Behavior refined across activation and tray interactions to keep the taskbar icon consistent. Major bugs fixed: - Default ThickFrame for New Windows Fixed: Ensured thickFrame is true by default for new windows to prevent display/interaction issues related to window borders. - Fullscreen Title Bar Visibility Stability: Fixed race conditions in fullscreen transitions by tracking the title bar state and safely adding/removing it during entry/exit fullscreen; cleared pending fullscreen timers to improve visual consistency. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Improved user experience with more predictable window behavior and fewer visual glitches during activation and fullscreen transitions. - Increased reliability of window management and tray interactions, reducing user confusion and potential support tickets. - Faster release readiness for Windows environments due to streamlined activation and fullscreen handling. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Window activation logic, system tray interaction handling, and fullscreen state management. - State tracking and race-condition mitigation in UI transitions. - Commit-driven development and alignment with SDA issue tracking (#2451, #2453, #2455, #2457).
