Jan 1, 2025January 2025 monthly summary for godotengine/godot focused on editor UX improvements and cross-platform polish. Delivered three user-facing features and several stability fixes that collectively enhance usability and reliability for artists and developers across Linux and other platforms. Key features delivered: - LineEdit: Persist edit mode after Enter. Enables users to stay in edit mode after submitting text by pressing Enter, reducing accidental exits (commit e89c196a80ba1ac24bdd22ae7e5c7704dba48c33). - ColorPicker: Exclude window from screen captures on supported platforms. Improves usability by avoiding captured ColorPicker windows and adjusts Linux window behavior for a smoother experience (commit 989161e117587733d6302b5191d14362f0e7f257). - ColorPicker: Visual and sampling improvements. Adds a cursor background for the color picker, reuses the cursor image for the HSV wheel, and cleans up UI with improved sampling when the old color is not shown (commits 2eded468f9c2941becab4173695357dc24b22fdb; 6caadd57a9693cd9f39ac24781c49e23ea02b2e1). Major bugs fixed: - Linux color picking reliability improvements and capture-related usability fixes (related to commit 989161e117587733d6302b5191d14362f0e7f257). - ColorPicker sampling bugs addressed and unnecessary UI elements removed (commits 2eded468f9c2941becab4173695357dc24b22fdb and 6caadd57a9693cd9f39ac24781c49e23ea02b2e1). Overall impact and accomplishments: - Substantial UX uplift for text input and color selection workflows. - Increased cross-platform stability and predictability, reducing user friction especially on Linux. - Improved maintainability through UI cleanup and targeted bug fixes, paving the way for faster iteration on future features. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Godot engine UI (LineEdit, ColorPicker) deep-dive, cross-platform considerations (Linux), UI/UX refinement, debugging and patch hygiene, incremental commits with clear messages.
