Notes

UI

• Bring back the title bar widget, a small element that provides information and quick media actions for windows that don't have the focus.
• Don't reduce the size of the window when we go to fullscreen, which used to happen in some cases.

Input

• Add the hand interaction input profile, via OpenXR's XR_EXT_hand_interaction extension. This allows us to use the OpenXR input model for hand tracking and gestures, instead of relying on vendor-specific extensions.
• Support eye-tracking navigation via OpenXR's XR_EXT_eye_gaze_interaction extension. Users are able to navigate with their gaze while using their hands or controllers for other input actions. Wolvic will ask for permission before enabling this feature.
• Clean up and polish a lot of our input-related code.

Content

• Update the Gecko version to v128. This required updating some GeckoView APIs, as well as Mozilla's Android Components to the new version.
• Support OpenXR's XR_EXT_view_configuration_depth_range extension, which provides additional graphical information which will help us improve Wolvic's performance.
• Fix layout errors when YouTube and other pages are displayed on a very large screen.

Huawei Vision Glass

• Voice input can be triggered from the phone UI. If the user is editing a text field, the spoken words will be added to it. Otherwise, the words will be used to launch a search.
• The phone UI can be used for seeking backward and forward in the currently playing media, even if it is not in fullscreen.
• Back button works as expected if used before we have entered immersive mode.
• Multiple improvements in stability and functionality.

Others
