v1.12.3472.0

This release brings some assorted top-hitting bug fixes into the preview channel from the main development branch.

For the holiday season, enjoy the following:

Changes

  • This version of Windows Terminal ships with Cascadia Code 2111.01.
    • The hinting on the brace ligatures was incorrect in the Italic style, which looked downright hilarious. See microsoft/cascadia-code#595 for more details.
  • On Windows 11, the Terminal now supports the "snap layouts" feature (#11680)

Bug Fixes

  • The Default Terminal option will now work on machines that do not have the Visual C++ Redistributable (#11610)
  • Splitting a non-focused tab will no longer blast Terminal into outer space (#11635)
  • All of the alternative character set slots have been defaulted to ASCII (#11658) (thanks @j4james!)
    • This is in line with other terminals, and should reduce the incidence of a stray escape character turning your screen into soup.
  • We were seeing some crashes on window painting in the synthetic test lab, which we think we've addressed (#11674)
  • The background image path should once again be displayed in the settings UI (#11580) (thanks @ianjoneill!)
  • AltGr should once again work in the Settings UI (#11808) (#11814)
  • GetConsoleCommandHistoryLengthA will now respond with the correct length (???) (#11897)
  • Fragments that update multiple profiles will no longer confuse and enrage us (#11598)
  • There will once again be a window border when you use Win+↓ in fullscreen mode (#11653) (thanks @serd2011!)
  • Launching additional applications in "default terminal" windows has been made more reliable (#11646)
  • The opacity slider once again appears when it should (and disappears when it shouldn't), rather than the other way around (#11643)
  • Our informational tips will no longer obscure the tabs when showTabsInTitleBar is false (#11609)
  • We made the mistake of printing hex error codes with negative signs (oops); we've fixed that (#11667)
  • Shutdown has been made slightly more reliable (#11857) (thanks @Rosefield!)
  • Detected URLs will no longer be offset by complex unicode characters on the same line (#11915) (thanks @comzyh!)
  • On Windows Server, Terminal will no longer render the display in "ransom note" style (#11764)
