Windows Terminal Preview 1.13.1098 fixes Windows 11 queue issue, ContentDialog bug, and more

Alongside Windows Terminal v1.12.1098, Microsoft has also released a new pre-release version of Terminal with Terminal Preview v1.13.1098. The latter carries over some of the fixes that are already GA now, plus it adds some more too. For example, a Windows 11 animation queue issue, a stubborn ContentDialog bug, and more, have been fixed in this release.

Find the full changelog below:

Appearance

• Our Maximize/Restore button is now a fine round boi (#12660)

Accessibility

• The profile list in the Settings UI now offers tooltips for long profile names (#12448)
• We'll automatically focus the window renamer textbox when it opens (#12798)
• High contrast will no longer result in a ridiculous and bad titlebar color (#12839)
• When you delete a color scheme, we'll move focus back to the color scheme list (#12841)
• Two instances of huge debug log spam with a screen reader connected have been stamped out (#12698) (#12723)

Usability

• We've added some text to the color schemes page indicating that it is for editing--not setting--color schemes (#12663)
  • We're working to refine how color schemes are set and edited, so stay tuned for future improvements!
• The retro terminal effect (as well as other shaders) will now work on pre-D3D11 hardware! (#12677)
• Terminal will once again render properly when you move between different-DPI displays (#12713) (#12749)
• Resizing the window while a background color or underline is displayed will no longer smear it across the whole screen (#12637) plus a fix for a huge crash that PR introduced (#12853)
• It took us three releases to get it right, but we've finally solved the issue where we'd punch a hole straight through the Terminal when a dialog appeared (#12840)

Reliability

• There was an issue on Windows 11 where Terminal would queue up billions of animations while the screen was off; it will now no longer do so (#12820)
• We've fixed crashes in ProposeCommandline (#12838), Monarch::_GetPID (#12856) and other parts of WT's RPC infrastructure (#12825)
• On Windows 10, the settings UI will no longer sometimes crash on close (we've updated to a new build of WinUI 2 for the fix!) (#12847)

Miscellaneous

• Windows will no longer reject certain Terminal updates/reinstalls due to "differing package content" (#12779)
• Fragments can once again override the names of generated profiles (#12627)
• An issue from the 1073 series, where you could not upgrade the bundle using DISM, has been resolved (#12819)
  • As a result, our bundle version is now over three thousand!
• @dmezh contributed some wording changes to the text about transparency/opacity (#12592) (#12727) (thanks!)
• Some trailing commas that broke the JSON Schema document are no longer trailing, or present at all (#12644) (thanks @sowmya-hub!)
