Beta 694 - Web Browser, Toolbar Customization, Keyboard Optimizations

Changes

• Wrist Toolbar Customization:

  You can now customize the buttons that show up on the wrist toolbar. This is in a very simple state for now, but will be expanded in the future. You can customize this at Settings / Wrist, and scroll down.

• Built in Web Browser:

  By default, the web browser now lives where the grid button did on the toolbar. You may opt to disable the web browser and re-enable the grid button as per the toolbar customization.

• Cursor Smoothing:

  Cursor smoothing has yet again been tweaked. This should feel much more responsive when moving quickly, but better smoothed when moving slowly. This is a trial at a middle ground between the new and old smoothing behaviors.

• Removed Keyboard Speech Language dropdown, as the auto detection works well without it.

• Added HMD battery life to OSC parameter outputs as `hmdBattery`

• General optimizations to texture life cycle handling.

Fixes

• Fixed an issue that caused the cursor smoothing slider to not do anything.

• Fixed an issue that caused a regression in how layouts were loaded, resulting in windows being dropped.

• Fixed an issue that would prevent the desktop positioning of windows from being restored properly when loading a layout that had a window saved that was positioned with Powertoys.

• Fixed an issue that could cause settings to be corrupt by .NET runtime.

• Fixed an issue that would cause the Hardware Monitor to not report information about the GPU / CPU.

• Fixed an issue with OpenXR applications or OpenVR applications running in Uncalibrated Playspace mode that prevented interaction with overlays.

• Tentatively fixed an issue that could cause stuttering when typing on the keyboard, resulting in multiple presses.
