Feb 1, 2026February 2026: Restored popup visual consistency in JetBrainsRuntime by reverting shadow outline and corner radius changes in AWTWindow. The fix reverts CPlatformWindow_nativeSetRoundedCorners to the pre-JBR-9375 baseline (commit 98649b40b3ec60238047bfd30843d67485d5d2b4; JBR-9960), ensuring popups render with consistent shadows and rounded corners across platforms. This improves user experience, aligns visuals with design guidelines, and reduces visual regressions.

Jul 1, 2024Month: 2024-07 was characterized by delivering a Vulkan pipeline texture management enhancement and stabilizing the Vulkan path in JetBrainsRuntime for Linux. The core delivery introduced VKTexturePool and integrated it as a VKLogicalDevice asset, based on the common AccelTexturePool pattern, to pool textures, reduce fragmentation, and improve handling, stability, and performance. A critical lifecycle issue was resolved: SIGSEGV in VKImage disposal, with the device now stored in TPI to ensure correct lifecycle management. In addition, code hygiene improvements (indentation fixes, enhanced logs in lock implementations) were completed and changes aligned with JBR-7460, including a cherry-pick from commit 5515b0fbfc782a7e1090a8487ef6087797835e79. This work directly enhances reliability, performance, and cross-platform consistency of texture management in the Vulkan path.
