## Summary of the Pull Request
Adds user settings to adjust rendering behavior to mitigate blurry text on some devices.
## References
- #778 introduced this, almost certainly.
## PR Checklist
* [x] Closes#5759, mostly
* [x] I work here.
* [ ] We need community verification that this will help.
* [x] Updated schema and schema doc.
* [x] Am core contributor. Discussed in Monday sync meeting and w/ @DHowett-MSFT.
## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
When we switched from full-screen repaints to incremental rendering, it seems like we exposed a situation where some display drivers and hardware combinations do not handle scroll and/or dirty regions (from `IDXGISwapChain::Present1`) without blurring the data from the previous frame. As we're really close to ship, I'm offering two options to let people in this situation escape it on their own. We hope in the future to figure out what's actually going on here and mitigate it further in software, but until then, these escape hatches are available.
1. `experimental.rendering.forceFullRepaint` - This one restores the pre-778 behavior to the Terminal. On every single frame paint, we'll invalidate the entire screen and repaint it.
2. `experimental.rendering.software` - This one uses the software WARP renderer instead of using the hardware and display driver directly. The theory is that this will sidestep any driver bugs or hardware variations.
One, the other, or both of these may be field-applied by users who are experiencing this behavior.
Reverting #778 completely would also resolve this, but it would give back our largest performance win in the whole Terminal project. We don't believe that's acceptable when seemingly a majority of the users are experiencing the performance benefit with no detriment to graphical display.
## Validation Steps Performed
- [x] Flipped them on and verified with the debugger that they are being applied to the rendering pipeline
- [ ] Gave a private copy to community members in #5759 and had them try whether one, the other, or both resolved their issue.
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR performs a number of miscellaneous clean-up tasks on our schema:
- [X] allow null for some settings
- [X] update some default values to be more useful
- [X] consistently use " instead of '
- [X] remove colorTable
- [X] provide missing description for `backgroundImageOpacity`
- [X] update cursorShape to have options match order displayed in vs code
- [X] if a setting has multiple options, provide a list of those options with a short description on each
- this one I only did a few times
- [X] remove a little bit of ambiguity on some descriptions
## PR Checklist
Closes#5279
## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
Validation was performed for...
- [X] Global Settings
- [X] Profile Settings
- [x] Keybinding Actions
## Validation Steps Performed
I linked VS Code to the my version of the schema. Defined all settings from scratch in settings.json. Anytime I found something off, I updated the schema and saw if it looks right.
Literally just <kbd>ctrl+f</kbd> find-and-replace all the old `profiles.json` that are sitting around in the repo with `settings.json`. I didn't touch the specs, since it seemed better to leave them in the state that they were originally authored in.
* [x] closes#5522
* [x] I work here.
* [x] This is docs.
These were already in the `SettingsSchema.md`, so I just updated the `profiles.schema.json` to have the descriptions as well.
* [x] closes#5520
* [x] I work here.
* [x] This is docs.
It was brought to our attention that shipping a font with ligatures as our default
font could be an accessibility issue for the visually-impaired. Unfortunately, we
don't have a renderer setting to disable ligatures (#759). Fortunately however, we
DO already have a version of Cascadia that doesn't have ligatures.
If we ship that and set it as our default font, we'll at least let people _opt_ to
have ligatures enabled by switching from `Cascadia Mono` to `Cascadia Code`.

## Summary of the Pull Request
Implements `copyFormatting` as a global setting. When enabled, formatting such as font and foreground/background colors are copied to the clipboard on _all_ copy operations.
Also updates the schema and docs.
## References
#5212 - Spec for Formatted Copying
#4191 - Setting to enable/disable formatted copy
#5263 - PR prematurely merged without approval of #5212
This feature will also have an impact on these yet-to-be-implemented features:
- #5262 - copyFormatting Keybinding Arg for Copy
- #1553 - Pointer Bindings
- #4191 - add array support for `copyFormatting`
## Detailed Description of the Pull Request
We already check if the hstring passed into the clipboard is empty before setting it. So the majority of the changes are actually just adding the global setting in.
## Validation Steps Performed
| `copyFormatting` | Mouse Copy | Keyboard Copy |
|--|--|--|
| not set (`false`) | ✔ | ✔ |
| `true` | ✔ | ✔ |
| `false` | ✔ | ✔ |
## Summary of the Pull Request
This updates defaults.json to include the default values for all global and profile settings. Most default keybinding args are added too. This also updates a few outdated items found in the docs.
## PR Checklist
* [X] Closes#5189
## Validation Steps Performed
After making the changes, I made sure all of the settings are deserialized by debugging and stepping through the `LayerJson` code.
- [X] Global Settings
I was mainly looking for two things:
- the key/value pair is found and read
- the value did not change before/after the pair was read

## Summary of the Pull Request
Minor cleanup on the schema. Globals isn't accepted anymore,
so the schema should not help you autocomplete anymore.
## Validation Steps Performed
Imported the new schema. You do _not_ get a warning when globals
is in. But, the schema won't suggest things when inside globals.
It's just treated as an unknown item.
However, "defaultProfile" is still required (more of a sanity test)
## Summary of the Pull Request
Added `splitMode` to settings schema JSON and md files.
The definition might need some tweaking.

## Validation Steps Performed
I deleted my profiles.json and built from source. All profiles appeared in Cascadia Code.
The pattern regex now correctly disallows keybindings consisting of only
modifiers, modifiers not separated by "+", and unknown keys. Certain
shift+numpad combinations are also not allowed.
The description lists allowed key names in tabular format (assuming the
client renders \t correctly).
Add the option to set the cursor color as part of the color scheme.
This is very useful for light themes, where the cursor disappears unless its color
is set in the profile.
Related to issue #764, but doesn't fully resolve it.
## Validation
I tested this manually by creating a light color scheme, setting the cursor color
to black and setting the profile color scheme to the newly created color scheme.
I validated the cursor is black, then set the cursor color in the profile (to red)
and saw it trumps the cursor color from the color scheme.
## Summary of the Pull Request
`keys` in `keybindings` now accepts a string value. This assumes that you wanted a keychord of size 1. The schema and user docs were properly updated too.
This means that the following keybinding is now accepted in your profiles.json:
```json
{ "command": "copy", "keys": "ctrl+c" }
```
as opposed to...
```json
{ "command": "copy", "keys": [ "ctrl+c" ] }
```

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
I added a checkbox to the close dialog to set this setting, but I'm not sure how to best go about actually changing the setting from code; am open to suggestions, as to how it should be done, or if I should also just remove it and stick with the profile setting.
<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed
1. Set "confirmCloseAllTabs" to false in my profile.json file.
2. Opened a 2nd tab.
3. Closed the window
4. Observed that there was no confirmation before the window closed.
5. Set "confirmCloseAllTabs" to true
6. Repeat steps 2 and 3
7. Observe that there was a confirmation before the window closed.

The terminal will use the system setting to determine the number of lines to scroll at a time.
This can be overridden by adding rowsToScroll to app global settings file.
terminal will use the system setting if the app setting is 0, or not specified. No restart is needed to reflect setting changes in system or the settings file.
The default was hardcoded to 4 in the code with a todo comment. 1 works better on precision touchpads, where 4 scrolls too fast.

These functionalities are included in the search experience.
1. Search in Terminal text buffer.
2. Automatic wrap-around.
3. Search up or down switch by clicking different buttons.
4. Search case sensitively/insensitively by clicking a button. S. Move the search box to the top/bottom by clicking a button.
6. Close by clicking 'X'.
7. Open search by ctrl + F.
When the searchbox is open, the user could still interact with the terminal by clicking the terminal input area.
While I already have the search functionalities, currently there are still some known to-do works and I will keep updating my PR:
1. Optimize the search box UI, this includes:
1) Theme adaptation. The search box background and font color
should change according to the theme,
2) Add background. Currently the elements in search box are all
transparent. However, we need a background.
3) Move button should be highlighted once clicked.
2. Accessibility: search process should be able to performed without mouse. Once the search box is focused, the user should be able to navigate between all interactive elements on the searchbox using keyboard.
<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
To test:
1. checkout this branch.
2. Build the project.
3. Start Windows Terminal and press Ctrl+F
4. The search box should appear on the top right corner.
## Summary of the Pull Request
The original PR had a few TODOs in it without issue numbers. IMO, this wasn't important enough to block the PR over. _Also I'm impatient and wanted that setting_.
After I merged the PR I created the issues and added the numbers myself.

_This is attempt 2 at this feature_. The original PR can be found at #3369.
These are settings that apply to _every_ profile, before user customizations.
If the user wants to add "default profile settings", they can make the `"profiles"` property an _object_, instead of a list, and add `"defaults"` key underneath that object. The users list of profiles should then be under the `list` property of the `profiles` object.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
~~Discussion in #2325 itself serves as the "spec" for this task. I thought we'd need more discussion on the topic, but it ended up being pretty straightforward.~~
I should not have said that in the original PR. We've had a better spec review now that I think we're happier with.
## Validation Steps Performed
_ran the tests_
## Summary of the Pull Request
This enables the user to set a number of extra settings in the `NewTab` and `SplitPane` `ShortcutAction`s, that enable customizing how a new terminal is created at runtime. The following four properties were added:
* `profile`
* `commandline`
* `tabTitle`
* `startingDirectory`
`profile` can be used with either a GUID or the name of a profile, and the action will launch that profile instead of the default.
`commandline`, `tabTitle`, and `startingDirectory` can all be used to override the profile's values of those settings. This will be more useful for #607.
With this PR, you can make bindings like the following:
```json
{ "keys": ["ctrl+a"], "command": { "action": "splitPane", "split": "vertical" } },
{ "keys": ["ctrl+b"], "command": { "action": "splitPane", "split": "vertical", "profile": "{6239a42c-1111-49a3-80bd-e8fdd045185c}" } },
{ "keys": ["ctrl+c"], "command": { "action": "splitPane", "split": "vertical", "profile": "profile1" } },
{ "keys": ["ctrl+d"], "command": { "action": "splitPane", "split": "vertical", "profile": "profile2" } },
{ "keys": ["ctrl+e"], "command": { "action": "splitPane", "split": "horizontal", "commandline": "foo.exe" } },
{ "keys": ["ctrl+f"], "command": { "action": "splitPane", "split": "horizontal", "profile": "profile1", "commandline": "foo.exe" } },
{ "keys": ["ctrl+g"], "command": { "action": "newTab" } },
{ "keys": ["ctrl+h"], "command": { "action": "newTab", "startingDirectory": "c:\\foo" } },
{ "keys": ["ctrl+i"], "command": { "action": "newTab", "profile": "profile2", "startingDirectory": "c:\\foo" } },
{ "keys": ["ctrl+j"], "command": { "action": "newTab", "tabTitle": "bar" } },
{ "keys": ["ctrl+k"], "command": { "action": "newTab", "profile": "profile2", "tabTitle": "bar" } },
{ "keys": ["ctrl+l"], "command": { "action": "newTab", "profile": "profile1", "tabTitle": "bar", "startingDirectory": "c:\\foo", "commandline":"foo.exe" } }
```
## References
This is a lot of work that was largely started in pursuit of #607. We want people to be able to override these properties straight from the commandline. While they may not make as much sense as keybindings like this, they'll make more sense as commandline arguments.
## PR Checklist
* [x] Closes#998
* [x] I work here
* [x] Tests added/passed
* [x] Requires documentation to be updated
## Validation Steps Performed
There are tests 🎉
Manually added some bindings, they opened the correct profiles in panes/tabs
## Summary of the Pull Request
We already have "splitHorizontal" and "splitVertical", but those will both be deprecated in favor of "splitPane" with arguments.
Currently, there's one argument: "style", which is one of "vertical" or "horizontal."
## References
This is being done in pursuit of supporting #607 and #998. I don't really want to lob #998 in with this one, since both that and this are hefty enough PRs even as they are. (I have a branch for #998, but it needs this first)
This will probably conflict with #3658
## PR Checklist
* [ ] Doesn't actually close anything, only enables #998
* [x] I work here
* [ ] Tests added/passed - yea okay no excuses here
* [x] Requires documentation to be updated
## Validation Steps Performed
Added new keybindings with the args - works
Tried the old keybindings without the args - still works
---------------------------------------
* Add a 'splitPane' keybinding that can be used for splitting a pane either vertically or horizontally
* Update documentation too
* Good lord this is important
* Add a test too, though I have no idea if it works
* "style" -> "split"
* pr comments from carlos
