…is got so brboken" This reverts commit 103beb4.
This hooks up the defterm interface to pass more info along in the startup. It's notably not the actual link title, but it does work from a plumbing standpoint This is for #9458

Huh, I never added real notes as to why we held this one out. IIRC it was something like the fact that this would consistently work for the first window I'd make but not subsequent ones, which is w e i r d And now that I'm 6 months removed from that code, that makes me thing it might have something to do with summoning peasant windows after creation, that the monarch wouldn't do. That's at least something that would be obviously different between the N=0 and N>=1 windows. |

@nirgranth if you'd like to help out, I'd start here. Or possibly even further back in the past, to the original version of this PR, #12979. The original idea was that we shouldn't call That original PR had some issue about getting the initial sizing just a little wrong, so we reverted that. This PR attempted to fix that sizing issue (and definitely did figure the sizing thing out). But somewhere between there (#12979) and now, this PR doesn't seem to work at all anymore. Probably an incoming merge from Anyways, that's my notes. I'd doubt I'll have time to loop back on this one soon, so any help would be appreciated. I'm guessing there's a rogue |

Magically, this works again after 6a99f25. We needed another jiggle the handle to let XAML paint |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I'm a bit worried that (1) we used to Summon from here and (2) now we aren't. Will this result in new terminal windows not coming to the front when they are the second window in the process? Will this result in us missing some activations somehow?
…ute (#13838) Original description, pre-process model v3: > This is just the `SHOWDEFAULT` bit from #12979. This seems to also work now, but I'm PR'ing it separately so it can be a separate revert from #13811, if it is problematic. More accurately: This PR enables terminal windows to use the `wShowCmd` from the STARTUPINFO passed to `windowsterminal.exe` to set the initial visibility of the window. We can't just use `SW_SHOWDEFAULT`, because all the windows are running in the initial process! After the first window, the subsequent ones would ignore any params passed to their originating `windowsterminal.exe` processes. To mitigate, we pass that `wShowCmd` info from the source process, to the actual running terminal process. That accounts for most of the delta here. Closes #9053 This doesn't do the same for defterm-initiated connections. This is because we don't need to! Defterm very explicitly rejects handoff for minimized console apps. This is probably for the best! I put an attempt in 66f8b25 before I forgot that it was filtered long before the Terminal. NOT doing this for /min saves us all sorts of "what happens if `start /min cmd` tries to glom?" or "what if someone does `start /min cmd && start /max cmd` and they glom together?". <hr> Also closes #15193, which was introduced as a part of this. --------- Co-authored-by: Dustin L.

This is a revert of the revert of #12979. We mainly reverted that PR because of an issue where restored windows would grow/shrink slightly on external displays. It was too close to the ship date for that release, so we backed it out wholesale (in #13098). I think I've found the real root of the problem, and fixed it here.
The money diff here from the original PR: 4c08b9a...c34495d. Basically, I had put the part where we actually handle the creation of the window into
_AppInitializedHandler, when we should have left the window to be created in_HandleCreateWindowWe create it there, hidden, and then should only show it in_AppInitializedHandler.I'm NOT incorporating the change for #9053. I reverted that bit in 1fac403. I am too worried about that messing with the phwnd that I wanted to get that reviewed and committed atomically, separately.
