⚠️ Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where mouse gesture settings were being reset.

When we revised the mouse gesture sensitivity-related settings in v12.9.0, an issue occurred where the settings would be unintentionally reset. This problem caused users' configured mouse gesture settings to be unexpectedly lost.

In v12.9.2, this issue has been fixed and mouse gesture settings are now properly preserved.

This fix was contributed by @Nyanrus. For more details, see PR #2212.
