🦙 So, folks requested Input Validation, eh? Adorners make this work for any input field, and it's super simple... 😅 <NumberBox DataContext="{x:Bind VM}" Value="{x:Bind VM.Age,Mode=TwoWay}"> <ui:AdornerLayer.Xaml> <local:InputValidationAdorner PropertyName="Age" />

Results from a little WinUIEx experiment this weekend. Simple API to create regions and set them: window.SetRegion( Region.CreateRectangle(window.GetBounds()) - Region(rectangle.GetBounds()); Can also be used to clip the outside of the window to a custom shape.

Thoughts on this new trayicon API that isn't linked to the active window? (IE you can have as many as you like). Direct methods on it for update icons and tooltips etc. Not a replacement for the convenient Window one, but an addition
