[PATCH v10 0/11] MR9628: Implement pointer input APIs for multi-touch support
by Hecheng Yu (＠kde-yyds) April 9, 2026

April 9, 2026

These patches implemeted core pointer input APIs required by modern applications with touchscreen support, particularly Chromium and Qt-based applications. Implemented APIs: - GetPointerType: Query pointer input type (touch, pen, mouse) - GetPointerTouchInfo: Retrieve detailed touch pointer information - GetPointerFrameTouchInfo: Get all active touch pointers in current frame Added stubs: - SkipPointerFrameMessages: Used by applications to skip pointer frame processing like Qt - GetPointerFrameTouchInfoHistory: Historical touch frame data (not yet implemented) - GetPointerPenInfoHistory: Historical pen data (not yet implemented) System metrics changes: - SM_DIGITIZER: Reports touch capabilities (NID_INTEGRATED_TOUCH | NID_MULTI_INPUT | NID_READY) - SM_MAXIMUMTOUCHES: Returns maximum simultaneous touch points (10) Limitations: - We explictly set pointer type to PT_TOUCH when storing pointer info to queue, so GetPointerType will always return PT_TOUCH - GetPointerFrameTouchInfo returns 0 pointers after finger lift, while Windows returns 1 pointer with UP flags. And SkipPointerFrameMessages is currently a stub returning TRUE. Qt's pointer message processing uses both of them, but it's just working well Application requirements: - Chromium: Requires GetPointerType and GetPointerTouchInfo for touch input - Qt applications: Need GetPointerFrameTouchInfo and proper system metrics for multi-touch support - Qt5: Additionally checks for presence of all pointer APIs at runtime, requiring stubs to enable pointer messages processing -- v10: user32: Implement GetPointerFrameTouchInfo win32u: Implement NtUserGetPointerFrameTouchInfo user32: Implement GetPointerTouchInfo win32u: Implement NtUserGetPointerTouchInfo user32: Implement GetPointerType win32u: Implement NtUserGetPointerType win32u: Add pointer information cache and storage user32: Stub GetPointerPenInfoHistory user32: Stub GetPointerFrameTouchInfoHistory user32: Stub SkipPointerFrameMessages win32u: Add SM_DIGITIZER and SM_MAXIMUMTOUCHES system metrics https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/9628

[PATCH v7 0/3] MR10025: mshtml/msxml3: Add XMLSerializer, embedded XML declaration handling
by Phiality (＠PhialsBasement) April 7, 2026

April 7, 2026

This patchset adds XMLSerializer support and fixes several compatibility issues for Adobe Creative Cloud installer and similar applications. XMLSerializer implementation (mshtml) - Implements the `IXMLSerializer` interface with `serializeToString()` method - Allows JavaScript to serialize DOM elements to XML strings Embedded XML declaration handling (msxml3) - Adds CDATA wrapping for embedded `<?xml?>` declarations inside elements - Windows MSXML tolerates these nested declarations but libxml2 rejects them - The preprocessing step wraps problematic content in CDATA sections before parsing ~~DISPATCH_METHOD|DISPATCH_PROPERTYGET fixes (jscript/mshtml)~~ This was already done !10004 Also added tests for XMLSerializer (empty elements, text nodes, special characters, nested elements, multiple children), embedded XML declaration handling (multiple declarations, deeply nested, encoding attributes, self-closing elements) and DISPATCH_METHOD|DISPATCH_PROPERTYGET behavior in both quirks and standards modes - Filip Bakreski -- v7: mshtml/msxml3/tests: Add tests for XMLSerializer and embedded XML declarations. libs/xml2: Tolerate embedded XML declarations inside elements. mshtml: Add IXMLSerializer implementation. https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/10025

[PATCH v4 0/1] MR9038: Draft: msi: implement MsiProvideAssembly[AW]()
by Ratchanan Srirattanamet (＠ratchanan.sr) March 31, 2026

March 31, 2026

TODO: - make awstring version of MsiProvideComponent() and use that. - Actually implement MsiProvideAssemblyA() using the above. - Write conformance test? Dependency: - Have ACTION_PublishAssemblies() record feature (https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/9037) - Have MsiEnumFeatures() fixed. Currently it seems to just look for features at the wrong place and thus is useless for this purpose.

Many mod/ASI loaders hijack this DLL to do their work so accommodate this fairly common case by preferring their library. -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/6527

[PATCH v5 0/5] MR10060: Draft: comdlg32: Use XDG Desktop Portal for native file dialogs
by Alexander Wilms (＠Alexander-Wilms) March 28, 2026

March 28, 2026

This adds XDG desktop portal integration for Wine file dialogs, with compatibility fallbacks, and solves https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51134 I used an LLM to create the patches, the wiki does not contain an LLM policy, so I don't know if this is eligible to be merged at all.

[PATCH 0/4] MR10138: Draft: imm32: Only load IME with IME HKLs.
by Rémi Bernon March 26, 2026

March 26, 2026

@mzent @bsjeon I'm thinking about doing something like that, bypassing IME entirely as we should if HKL isn't an IME one, instead of checking whether host IME needs to be fed input in ImeProcessKey, it's a bit untested though. -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/10138

[PATCH v3 0/3] MR2343: Collection of small fixes for Fusion 360
by novenary * (＠novenary) March 22, 2026

March 22, 2026

This fixes various problems I've run into while trying to use Fusion 360 in wine. - stacking issues in unmanaged mode - I also attempted to apply the same fix for managed mode, but it looks difficult to do this in a way that plays well with window managers; I think it's best left up to them to keep override_redirect windows at the top of the stack) - when the window manager sets our state to withdrawn, tell the window that it's been minimized, since the semantics are very similar - the last one is a hack because I don't really know what to do about it, when clicking on the floating popups, they gain focus, which causes wine to incorrectly make them managed and that breaks everything -- v3: winex11: don't let captionless popups be managed winex11: pass ICCCM withdrawn state as minimized winex11: restack a window's owned popups above it https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/2343
