The Avalonia port had placed the UI app in an ILSpy.* namespace tree,
while the csproj RootNamespace and every prior release (through 10.1)
use ICSharpCode.ILSpy.*. Restoring the historical namespace reduces the
public API diff against release/10.1 for plugin authors and removes the
shadowing that forced global:: qualifiers in the test project. The
Images class and AccessOverlayIcon enum move back into the root
namespace (as in 10.1), since an ICSharpCode.ILSpy.Images namespace
would shadow the Images class for all code inside ICSharpCode.ILSpy.

Reference links navigated on pointer-press, which meant a press-drag
over a link could never select its text -- the press fired navigation
and handled the event before a selection could start. Move navigation
to pointer-release and only follow the link when the pointer did not
drag past the click threshold, matching the WPF view's mouse-up
handling. A press-drag now selects link text like any other span.

Selecting text inside the popup closed it: the selection drag captures
the pointer, so sweeping past the popup edge fired the content's
PointerExited with IsPointerOver already false. The close veto now
covers pointer-over, keyboard-focus-within (so a finished selection
survives for Ctrl+C, as the WPF tooltip did), and pointer capture held
inside the popup; only a document change force-closes.

Doc-comment crefs in hover tooltips rendered as link-styled but inert
text, and cref resolution was never wired up. Crefs now resolve against
the current tab's assembly list and navigate through the same
NavigateToReferenceEventArgs channel the analyzer uses; href links open
via the TopLevel launcher. Avalonia inlines are not input elements, so
links are hit-testable TextBlocks embedded via InlineUIContainer.
Interactive content also requires the popup to survive the pointer
travelling onto it: the editor's exit handler now tolerates the
overlay-popup enter/exit ordering via the distance corridor, and the
popup closes when the pointer leaves its own content instead.

The WPF app showed the disassembled IL header when hovering a member
reference in IL view, and the opcode's XML documentation when hovering
an instruction. The Avalonia port lost both: ILLanguage fell back to
the base ambience one-liner and the opcode tooltip carried only the
name and encoding. Opcode docs additionally need a modern-.NET source:
the WPF code read the .NET Framework reference-assembly docs, which do
not exist on modern .NET, so MscorlibDocumentation now falls back to
the ref pack parallel to the hosting runtime.

CaretHighlightAdornerTests waited on the wall clock (3s budget) for the
adorner's 1s real-time DispatcherTimer to remove it. Avalonia.Headless has no
simulated clock, so under a loaded CI runner the dispatcher-thread timer plus
the poll loop slipped past the tight budget and the test timed out
intermittently.
Extract the teardown the lifetime timer runs into Dismiss(); the test grabs the
live adorner and calls it directly, verifying the unregister half without any
timing dependency. Registration is still exercised through the real
OnReferenceClicked path, and production behaviour is unchanged.

Keep the headless UI tests from timing out on the slow Windows runner:
decompile a small CoreLib type (System.Object) in the folding and
token-history tests instead of a large one, and raise the shared
decompile-wait timeout so a cold first decompile (JIT plus building a
CoreLib-scale type system) finishes in time.

AvaloniaEdit's copy puts only plain text on the clipboard, so pasting into
an HTML-aware target (a document, mail, chat) lost the colours the previous
version preserved. Build a coloured HTML fragment from the selection that
merges BOTH the xshd syntax highlighter and ILSpy's semantic RichTextModel
(the decompiler's reference / theme colours the xshd alone doesn't carry),
and place it alongside the text under the native HTML format -- text/html on
Linux/macOS, CF_HTML on Windows. Wired to Ctrl+C (tunnel, so it pre-empts
the plain-text copy) and the right-click Copy entry.

The decompiler text-view context menu was missing the navigation and folding entries the previous version had. Add Decompile (go to definition) on a right-clicked symbol -- it navigates the tree to the entity's definition via the existing NavigateToReference bus message -- and Toggle folding / Toggle all folding, which reuse the editor's existing Ctrl+M logic (extracted into public DecompilerTextView methods). The folding entries only show when the document has foldings.
Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-8:Claude Code
The Display-options "Expand using declarations / member definitions after decompilation" checkboxes had no effect: the live decompile cloned DecompilerSettings and baked in the language version but never copied these two flags from DisplaySettings. TextTokenWriter reads settings.ExpandUsingDeclarations / ExpandMemberDefinitions to decide each fold's DefaultClosed, so without the bridge both defaulted false and every using / member fold came back collapsed regardless of the setting.
This fixture was missed by both the helper-extraction and visual-breakpoint
sweeps, so it still carried 16 copies of the boot prologue and no captures.
Route it through TestHarness.BootAsync / TreeNavigation and add a Step after
each decompile, matching every other headless fixture.

WPF's CSharpLanguage doesn't override DecompileNamespace -- clicking
a namespace falls through to the base Language.DecompileNamespace,
which writes just the namespace name as a `// Foo.Bar` comment.
The avalonia port's override decompiled every top-level type in the
namespace, which on a large assembly turned a single click into a
multi-second blocking decompile of hundreds of types.
Remove the override so clicking a namespace lands the same cheap
comment-only output the WPF app shows. Users who do want the full
namespace decompiled can still get it via right-click > Save Code,
which routes through a separate path that constructs the project
explicitly.
ILLanguage's override is intentionally preserved -- IL mode in WPF
does disassemble the namespace; we match that.

User-reported: editor hover tooltips were not wide enough to show full
method signatures. Root cause was a three-way layout interaction —
DocumentationRenderer.AddSignatureBlock created the signature
SelectableTextBlock with TextWrapping.NoWrap, the outer Border capped
MaxWidth at 600px, and the wrapping ScrollViewer disabled horizontal
scrolling. So anything past 600px was simply clipped, with no way to
reveal the rest.

The three editor-command tests (Copy_Entry_Reflects, Copy_Execute, SelectAll_Execute)
selected `System.Linq.Enumerable` (the whole type, 300+ LINQ methods) and waited
on `view.Editor.Document.TextLength > 0` — a 15s `WaitForAsync` poll. In suite
context this was sloppy: it could latch on stale editor content from a previous
test, and in isolation it occasionally raced past 15s on a slow system,
producing the intermittent `failed: 1` we saw earlier.

Ctrl+M toggles the innermost fold containing the caret. Ctrl+Shift+M collapses
all when any fold is open and expands all otherwise (parity-based toggle).

Mirrors WPF's ZoomScrollViewer behaviour without templating AvaloniaEdit's
TextEditor. The Avalonia path scales the editor's FontSize (which feeds
DisplaySettings.SelectedFontSize) on Ctrl+Wheel; AvaloniaEdit lays out at the
new size on the next render. WPF's full-content-tree LayoutTransform approach
doesn't fit AvaloniaEdit's architecture, but the font-scale result is what
users actually expect from "editor zoom".

Foldings persistence rounds out the view-state work that landed in 185e0551d
(caret + scroll). Mirrors WPF's DecompilerTextViewState.SaveFoldingsState /
RestoreFoldings semantics verbatim — including the layout-checksum gate that
refuses restoration when the new document's foldings don't match the captured
layout, so a stale snapshot can't accidentally expand random regions of a
shifted document.

Promotes the modern .NET XML-doc lookup from the Avalonia port into the
shared ICSharpCode.Decompiler library so every host (WPF, Avalonia, any
third-party consumer of XmlDocLoader) gets hover/tooltip documentation
for system entities without per-host fallback wiring.
The decompiler-view hover tooltip's XML-documentation lookup goes through
the shared ICSharpCode.Decompiler.Documentation.XmlDocLoader. That helper
only knows two layouts: .xml beside the .dll, and the .NET Framework
reference-assemblies paths (Program Files (x86)\Reference Assemblies\
Microsoft\Framework\v1.0 … v4.8.1). Modern .NET runtime DLLs
(System.Private.CoreLib.dll, System.Linq.dll, …) ship without any .xml
beside them — the XML files live in the parallel reference pack at
The Reload/Remove/SearchMSDN/OpenContainingFolder/DecompileInNewView
tests used to call `entry.Execute(synthetic TextViewContext)` against
a hand-built context. They now select via the assembly-tree model,
build the context menu through `BuildContextMenuForCurrentState`
(the same call the live `Opening` event makes), and fire the menu
item's `Click` routed event — the same handler the user's click
invokes. This widens the coverage to the menu-build → click-handler
attachment pipeline.

Mirrors WPF's TextView/EditorCommands.cs: CopyContextMenuEntry and
SelectAllContextMenuEntry are [ExportContextMenuEntry] MEF exports
gated by TextViewContext.TextView, with Category=Editor and low Order
so they appear at the top of the editor right-click menu. The
hand-rolled MenuItem fallback in DecompilerTextView.OnContextMenuOpening
is removed — the MEF entries replace it.

CaretHighlightAdorner is an IBackgroundRenderer on KnownLayer.Caret with a
hand-rolled animation curve (Stopwatch + DispatcherTimer at ~60fps invalidating
the layer) instead of WPF's RectAnimation/BeginAnimation, since AvaloniaEdit
has no XAML-style animation primitive for ad-hoc visuals. Same timing as WPF
(300ms grow, 300ms shrink, opacity fade 450-650ms, 1s lifetime).

Tree-node selection now updates the inner Content of one persistent
ContentTabPage instead of swapping the dockable in the dock. The
wrapper view (ContentTabPageView) keeps both inner views — the
decompiler text editor and the metadata grid — pre-realised in the
visual tree from construction time and toggles which is visible based
on Content's runtime type.

Replaces the brittle root.GetVisualDescendants().OfType<T>().Single() / .First()
pattern with a new WaitForComponent<T>() extension that polls until the requested
control is in the visual tree, then returns it. Avalonia.Headless tests routinely
queried the visual tree before lazily-templated panes (DataGrid, dock content)
had materialised, surfacing as intermittent 'Sequence contains no elements'
failures across the suite.

Each tree-expansion, selection change, command execution, async wait and
key/mouse injection inside an [AvaloniaTest] now carries a short imperative
comment on the line above (e.g. "// expand typeNode", "// select methodA",
"// wait for assemblies to load", "// execute aboutCmd"). The comments are
the same scaffolding the manual debug-with-screenshot workflow uses to
follow what's happening at each breakpoint, surfaced into the committed
source so the tests are readable without the breakpoint markers attached.

XML / XSD / XSLT / XAML resources don't go through the C# decompiler so the
DecompilerTabPageModel has no pre-collected foldings — only HighlightingService
was kicking in. Run AvaloniaEdit's bundled XmlFoldingStrategy when the active
syntax extension is .xml so multi-line elements collapse from the gutter.
