What's Changed

Changed

RDP default quality mode — new RDP connections now default to Quality (RemoteFX) instead of Balanced; existing connections with explicitly saved Balanced or Speed settings are not affected

Fixed

SPICE fallback viewer reported as failed — connect_with_fallback() returned an error even when the external SPICE viewer launched successfully; now returns Ok(()) so the GUI correctly shows the connected state
SPICE embedded mouse clicks at wrong position — click and release events sent coordinates (0,0) instead of the actual cursor position; now applies the same widget-to-framebuffer coordinate transformation as mouse motion
RDP file import ignores gateway port — .rdp parser read gateway port from gatewayaccesstoken instead of the standard gatewayport field; gateway connections now use the correct port
Session type misclassified for terminal protocols — only SSH was classified as embedded; Telnet, Serial, Kubernetes, and MOSH sessions are now correctly classified as terminal-embedded
MOSH --ssh argument not parsed correctly — --ssh=ssh -p PORT was passed as a single argument; now split into --ssh and ssh -p PORT as two separate arguments for correct parsing
MOSH connections accepted port 0 — validate_connection() now rejects port 0, consistent with SSH and other protocols
Config file corruption on power failure — synchronous save_toml_file now calls sync_all() before atomic rename, matching the async version's durability guarantee
CLI delete auto-confirms in non-interactive mode — piped input no longer auto-confirms destructive operations; use --force to bypass confirmation in scripts
CLI add allows duplicate connection names — now returns an error if a connection with the same name already exists
CLI group delete leaves orphaned connections — connections belonging to a deleted group now have their group_id cleared
CLI update uses case-sensitive exact match — now uses find_connection for case-insensitive and fuzzy matching, consistent with other commands
FreeRDP 2.x flagged as version-incompatible — detection entries for wlfreerdp/xfreerdp (2.x) had min_version("3.0.0"); corrected to "2.0.0"
External window saves default size instead of current — setup_close_handler now uses window.width()/height() to capture actual dimensions after user resize
Cluster dialog buttons break on layout change — Select All / Deselect All buttons are now stored as struct fields instead of being found via fragile parent() traversal
Whitespace-only group and snippet names accepted — validate_group and validate_snippet now trim names before checking emptiness
Tray dirty-check hash collision — replaced simple timestamp sum with DefaultHasher combining connection IDs and timestamps
Connection::default_port duplicated ProtocolType::default_port — now delegates to self.protocol.default_port()

Security

Script credential resolver password not zeroed — intermediate String holding the password from script output is now zeroed via zeroize::Zeroize after wrapping in SecretString
Encrypted credential changes not detected — SecretSettings::PartialEq now includes all *_encrypted fields so save-if-changed logic detects credential updates

Improved

Highlight rules performance — CompiledHighlightRules now uses RegexSet for fast initial filtering before running individual regexes; avoids executing every pattern on every terminal line
Command palette sort performance — SearchEngine is now created once before sorting instead of inside every comparator call
GTK main loop polling — poll_for_result uses timeout_add_local at 16ms intervals instead of idle_add_local_once to avoid busy-spinning
Terminal themes cached — all_themes() and theme_names() use OnceLock to avoid repeated allocation
Fuzzy search allocation — fuzzy_score_optimized replaced to_lowercase() with allocation-free case-insensitive search
Export runs on background thread — large exports no longer freeze the UI
CLI download default allocation — reduced from 10MB to 1MB for small downloads
Group descendant collection — collect_descendant_groups uses HashSet for O(1) lookups instead of O(n) Vec::contains
parse_args supports quoted strings — uses shell_words::split() so RDP arguments with spaces and quotes are parsed correctly
Tray menu translated — all tray menu strings wrapped in i18n()
Password generator tips translated — security tip strings wrapped in i18n()
Session restore version validation — from_json now warns on version mismatch for forward compatibility
ZeroTrust protocol registry documented — get_by_type() explains that ZeroTrust delegates to provider-specific protocols
Wayland subsurface code documented — dead Wayland native paths annotated as future extension points
Duplicate CSS rules removed — .status-connected and .status-connecting were defined twice in sidebar CSS
Dead Flatpak config helpers removed — unused get_flatpak_boundary_config_dir and get_flatpak_cloudflared_config_dir
CredentialResolutionContext struct — replaces 8-argument function with a bundled context struct
Embedded RDP 4K performance — replaced per-frame 33MB pixel buffer clone (data.to_vec()) with a persistent Cairo ImageSurface that is updated in-place via surface.data() + mark_dirty_rectangle(); eliminates the main bottleneck that caused near-slideshow rendering at 4K resolution; old PixelBuffer path kept as fallback for FreeRDP external mode
RDP frame extraction optimized — extract_region_data replaced per-pixel copy+swap loop with row-based memcpy + bulk R↔B channel swap; full-frame fast path avoids row-by-row copy when region covers entire image; LLVM auto-vectorizes the swap loop into SIMD on x86_64
RDP cursor artifacts (random pixels below cursor) — cursor bitmaps from IronRDP are padded to 32×32 or 64×64 with transparent rows; on HiDPI the downscale + compositor upscale caused color bleeding at transparency edges; now crops transparent padding before downscale and uses premultiplied alpha (B8g8r8a8Premultiplied) to prevent bleed; R↔B channel swap moved from session layer to cursor handler to avoid double-swap
