- Changed size references to just state the values without 'final'
- More accurate and less presumptive

UI Scaling:
- Reduce module tiles from 220x110 to 160x80
- Reduce title size from 28 to 20
- Reduce queue tile from 160x60 to 140x50 with smaller text

Header Layout Improvements:
- Use border layout with title on left, controls on right
- Compact button labels: "☰ History" → "☰", "Run Benchmark" → "Benchmark"
- Eliminates wasted space in header
Queue Behavior Fix:
- "Clear Completed" always returns to main menu (not last module)
- "Clear All" always returns to main menu
- Prevents unwanted navigation to convert module after clearing
All changes work together to fit app within 800x600 default window

- Remove Show()/Hide() calls from Layout() method
- These methods must only be called from main UI thread
- Layout() can be called from any thread during resize/redraw
- Show/Hide logic remains in Refresh() which uses DoFromGoroutine

Issue: ICO file had white background instead of transparency
Solution: Regenerated from PNG source using ImageMagick with
-alpha on -background transparent flags
Verification:
- Corner pixels are srgba(0,0,0,0) - fully transparent
- All icon sizes (256, 128, 64, 48, 32, 16) have alpha channel
- Backup saved as VT_Icon.ico.backup
Command used:
magick VT_Icon.png -alpha on -background transparent \
-define icon:auto-resize=256,128,64,48,32,16 VT_Icon.ico
This ensures the app icon displays properly with transparent
background on all platforms.

In Progress Tab Enhancements:
- Added animated striped progress bars to in-progress jobs
- Exported ModuleColor function for reuse across modules
- Shows real-time progress (0-100%) with module-specific colors
- Progress updates automatically as jobs run
- Maintains consistent visual style with queue view
Lossless Quality Preset Improvements:
- H.265 and AV1 now support all bitrate modes with lossless quality
- Lossless with Target Size mode now works for H.265/AV1
- H.264 and MPEG-2 no longer show "Lossless" option (codec limitation)
- Dynamic quality dropdown updates based on selected codec
- Automatic fallback to "Near-Lossless" when switching from lossless-capable
codec to non-lossless codec
Quality Options Logic:
- Base options: Draft, Standard, Balanced, High, Near-Lossless
- "Lossless" only appears for H.265 and AV1
- codecSupportsLossless() helper function checks compatibility
- updateQualityOptions() refreshes dropdown when codec changes
Lossless + Bitrate Mode Combinations:
- Lossless + CRF: Forces CRF 0 for perfect quality
- Lossless + CBR: Constant bitrate with lossless quality
- Lossless + VBR: Variable bitrate with lossless quality
- Lossless + Target Size: Calculates bitrate for exact file size with
best possible quality (now allowed for H.265/AV1)
Technical Implementation:
- Added Progress field to ui.HistoryEntry struct
- Exported StripedProgress widget and ModuleColor function
- updateQualityOptions() function dynamically filters quality presets
- updateEncodingControls() handles lossless modes per codec
- Descriptive hints explain each lossless+bitrate combination
This allows professional workflows where lossless quality is desired
but file size constraints still need to be met using Target Size mode.

Features:
- New "In Progress" tab shows running/pending jobs
- Displays active jobs without opening full queue
- Tab positioned first for quick visibility
- Shows "Running..." or "Pending" status
- No delete button on active jobs (only completed/failed)
Implementation:
- Updated BuildHistorySidebar to accept activeJobs parameter
- Converts queue.Job to ui.HistoryEntry for display
- Filters running/pending jobs from queue
- Conditional delete button (nil check)
- Dynamic status text based on job state
UX Improvements:
- Quick glance at current activity without queue view
- Three-tab layout: In Progress → Completed → Failed
- Consistent styling with existing history entries
- Tappable entries to view full job details
This allows users to monitor active conversions directly
from the history sidebar, reducing the need to constantly
check the full job queue view.

Bitrate Mode Options Now Show:
- CRF (Constant Rate Factor)
- CBR (Constant Bitrate)
- VBR (Variable Bitrate)
- Target Size (Calculate from file size)
Implementation:
- Added bidirectional mapping between short codes and full labels
- Internally still uses short codes (CRF, CBR, VBR, Target Size)
- Preserves compatibility with existing config files
- Maps display label to internal code on selection
- Maps internal code to display label when loading
Makes it immediately clear what each bitrate mode does without
needing to reference documentation or tooltips.

Command Preview Button:
- Disabled when no video source is loaded
- Shows "Show Preview" when preview is hidden
- Shows "Hide Preview" when preview is visible
- Makes it clear when and why the button can be used
Format Options Reorganization:
- Grouped formats by codec family for better readability
- Order: H.264 → H.265 → AV1 → VP9 → ProRes → MPEG-2
- Added comments explaining each codec family
- Makes it easier to find and compare similar codecs
This improves discoverability and reduces user confusion about
when the command preview is available and which format to choose.
