Feb 1, 2026

February 2026 monthly highlights for ArduPilot/MethodicConfigurator. Implemented a Two-Phase Confirmation Workflow for Derived Parameters to compute changes without side effects and require explicit user approval before applying to the in-memory model, with persistence gated to the corresponding configuration step. Stabilized macOS UI by removing grab_set usage, fixing popup deadlocks, and refining modal handling to improve responsiveness and prevent UI freezes. Completed macOS typography and font support fixes by correcting tests and adding Helvetica as a valid Apple-system font, ensuring consistent rendering across systems. Expanded Cross-OS CI testing to enable and extend macOS test runs, increasing reliability and coverage across platforms. These efforts reduce risk of unintended mutations, enhance user experience on macOS, and strengthen overall cross-platform delivery.
