- Task Reference: Task 27: Suppress target window key inputs during transparency modal
- Target Window Input Suppression: Intercepted and swallowed keyboard inputs targeting the active window when the transparency modal is open, to prevent accidental typing from leaking into the background window.
- Pure Swallow Checking Function: Created
should_swallow_keyhelper function insrc/platform/hook.rsto safely decide if keys should be swallowed. Modifier keys (Ctrl, Alt, Win, Shift) and Ctrl/Alt key combinations are preserved and not swallowed, avoiding stuck modifier states (such as stuck Shift keys after releasing the modal hotkey). - Deferred Keyboard Hook Release: Deferred releasing the keyboard hook until all physical keys (arrow keys, Enter, Escape, etc.) are physically released, preventing keys from getting stuck or repeating.
- TDD & Unit Testing: Wrote a set of unit tests in
src/platform/hook.rsandsrc/app/controller.rsverifying modifiers, active states, combination keys, and deferred hook release. All 50 tests pass successfully. - Hook Integration: Integrated
