HDR and Dolby Vision Support

We are happy to announce HDR and Dolby Vision support in PlexyDesk. With a compatible display, PlexyDesk delivers richer colours, deeper contrast, and a more immersive visual experience than ever before.

Improved Dark theme

We have improved dark mode in PlexyDesk to make it feel more polished and easier to adjust. The compositor now includes more options for fine tuning individual visual properties, giving users more control over how the desktop looks and behaves. The result is a dark theme that feels cleaner, more consistent, and more flexible than before.

Changelog

fix wayland vk error and buffer issues
clipboard support across plexyshell and wayland and x11
XQuadro was updated to support new plexyshell protocols changes
faster desktop rendering with compositor optimizations

Current status summary

PlexyDesk includes a functioning compositor shell with integrated dock and menubar components.
The runtime supports shell-owned composition, visual presentation, and client-submitted surfaces.
Public toolkit headers are documented through the generated PlexyUI API reference.
The wiki now includes architectural, subsystem, example, gallery, and contribution pages intended to track the codebase.

Tracking pages

Development Status for implementation notes and subsystem coverage
Development for engineering-facing references
Special:RecentChanges for the latest wiki edits
Gallery for visual captures of running PlexyDesk sessions
