February 2026: Focused on UI correctness, test coverage, and maintainability in the Uno platform. Implemented a WinUI-aligned AutoSuggestBox popup behavior so the popup correctly overlaps the header when opened upward, using header height calculation to position the popup. Added a runtime test to validate the overlap scenario and performed test formatting cleanup to improve readability and maintainability. These changes enhance cross-platform UI consistency, reduce visual defects, and enable automated regression detection for popup positioning.
