Windows Terminal Preview v1.25.622.0

on GitHub

Windows Terminal 1.25 is here, with a bunch of new features in tow!

It sports a new search experience inside the Settings page, the ability to edit actions, command palette entries and key bindings with a rich editor--rather than just their key bindings--support for Kitty's keyboard protocol and two completely new community translations!

Features

• You can now edit actions, key bindings, and command palette entries in full in the newly-rewritten Actions page of Settings (#18917) (#18915) (#19771) (#19906) (#19865) (#19822) (#19862) (#19827)
• You can now search for settings, profiles, actions, extensions and more in the Settings page! (#19519) (#19889)
• Windows Terminal now supports the Kitty Keyboard Protocol, which allows applications to receive the state of modifier keys, disambiguate Esc from Ctrl+[, and more (#19817)
• You can now configure Terminal to persist only the layout of your windows and none of the content (#19341) (#19508)
• You can now configure the number of columns allocated to "Ambiguous" EA width-class characters (JSON setting: Global, compatibility.ambiguousWidth, enum narrow (default, 1 column) and wide (2 columns)) (#19864) (thanks @unagi!)
• We have our first two community-maintained translations!
  • Serbian (#17995) (#19472) (#19833) (thanks @eevan78!)
  • Ukrainian (#19554) (thanks @psnet!)

Changes

• wt -pos now supports single-value inputs, e.g. wt -pos 40 which will position the window at 40, 40 (#19409) (thanks @KavishaHaswani!)
• conpty: after a resize, we will now request a new cursor position to keep our internal state in sync for e.g. PowerShell and other callers of GetConsoleCursorPosition (#19535) (#19620)
• In the Settings UI, we have moved color pickers into a lighter-weight flyout rather than a whole dialog; as a result, you can now type into them (#19572)
• We have added the VSCode Dark Modern and Light Modern color schemes (#19728) (thanks @AndyBodnar!)
• We have once again enabled PGO, which should result in a 10-25% throughput increase on output (#19810)
• We've removed the temporary "New" badge from the Extensions page as of 1.25 (#19637)
• We've rewritten how cursor and attribute blinking is handled to reduce the sheer number of timers and threads we create (#19330) (#19652)
• You can now choose an icon for any folder in your New Tab Menu (#19591)
• You can now configure a profile's tab color in the Settings page (#19351)
• You can now type to search in the "built in icons" list in Profile settings (#19569)

Accessibility

• Screen readers now get more information about the font features and axes controls in the Settings (#19712) (#19716)
• Search now reports richer result information to screen readers (#19726)
• The Settings UI now offers tooltips for some of its longer sidebar items (#19714)

VT Support

• Applications that use OSC 52 to write to the clipboard will now only be allowed to do so when they are actively focused, to prevent clipboard hijacking (#19357) (thanks @DivInstance!)
• Sixel images are now parsed more performantly (#19639)
• We will now consider ITU T.416 24-bit colors with a color space of 0 valid (#19768) (thanks @Vallabh-1504!)

Bug Fixes

• Elevated and non-elevated Terminal windows will no longer delete each other's saved session data (#19546)
• Pasting text while in Broadcast mode now works slightly better (#19879)
• Previewed input actions will no longer stick around (forever!) after you dismiss the Command Palette (#19885)
• Search will now more reliably focus results that are offscreen (#19571)
• Terminal should no longer jump around frantically while you have an active search while printing output (#19775)
• The command palette entries "Move tab forward" and "... backward" now indicate whether that means left or right (#19708) (thanks @vamsiikrishnaak!)
• Underlines will no longer render in the wrong color when you have an active text selection (#19872)
• Unfocused Acrylic once again works in the tab row (#19647) (thanks @AbhishekGiri04!)
• We will now more reliably detect URLs which are scrolled partially off-screen (#19878)
• We will now no longer emit stray whitespace characters into your settings.json file at the end of a line that opens up an object (#19836)
• When you enter "Mark Mode" while a search is active, we will now start with that result marked (#19550) (#19603)
• When you enter "Mark Mode", we will now start marking at the top of your scroll area rather than the top of the active viewport (#19549)
• Terminal should no longer fail to launch applications on clean boots with error code 0xD000003A (#19901)

Conhost Changes

These changes may be available in a future version of Windows available in the Windows Insider program.

• conhost: the new Atlas engine is now available behind the UseDx registry key (HKCU\Console, DWORD, set to 1 to enable) (#19848)
• conhost: the original rendering engine now supports bold fonts (#19441) (thanks @alabuzhev!)
• conhost: we've fixed a longstanding bug in paste, which would result in some input characters being dropped if the output CodePage could not represent them (#19511)
• conhost: we have rewritten the legacy MSAA accessibility integration, as well as some of the modern UIAutomation one as well (#19344)

With additional code quality and maintainability fixes thanks to @fab-c14, @pszlazak, @stynixkis, @04suriya07-spec, @benediktjohannes, and @Musaddiq625.
