Fusion is one of the built-in styles that Qt ships with, and that is
generally supported in all platforms and handles custom color palettes
properly.
The color palettes have been borrowed from the Dolphin Memory Engine
buddy application.
The new styles are:
- **Fusion Light**
- **Fusion Dark Gray**
- **Fusion Dark**
A demo of each style on Windows:
| System | Light | Dark | Fusion Light | Fusion Dark Gray | Fusion Dark |
| ------ | ----- | ---- | ------------ | ---------------- | ----------- |

> [!NOTE]
> Notice that the **Light** and **Dark** styles remain available only on
> Windows due to limitations on how styles in the various platforms
> handle (or mishandle) custom color palettes.
> [!IMPORTANT]
> Due to [`KDE-511547`](https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=511547),
> after having used Breeze (default style in Plasma systems), top tool
> bars in tools areas will lose their correct background color; a
> restart will be required in order to get the updated color in the main
> window.

> UPDATE: The issue has been fixed upstream and should be available in
> KDE Plama 6.5.3 and newer.
This is a hassle-free BBA option intended for local play with multiple
Dolphin instances running *in the same system*. After selecting
**Broadband Adapter (IPC)** in the **SP1** slot in the GameCube section
in the settings, games that support LAN play will be able to discover
each other, without requiring third-party software or relatively complex
TAP setups.
The implementation is based on cpp-ipc, a high-performance inter-process
communication library that uses shared memory as transport layer.
Supported platforms are:
- [x] Linux
- [x] Windows
- [ ] macOS (cpp-ipc does not support this platform)
- [ ] FreeBSD (cpp-ipc does not support this platform)
- [ ] Android (cpp-ipc needs some adjustments; while it could work,
launching two Dolphin instances within the same Android system may be
both challenging and impractical)
Allow loading a custom font by naming it OSD_Font.ttf and placing the file in the User/Load folder, to load that font instead. Useful for future testing.
USBDevicePicker: Modify USBDeviceAddToWhitelistDialog to be more generic, and use it for a new "More Options..." selection in Bluetooth Passthrough adapters
When opening a file dialog to set the location of a custom path, use the
corresponding user path as the starting location instead of the current
custom path.
When no custom path was set the dialog would be opened with a blank path
which causes Windows (not sure about other platforms) to open the dialog
at the same location where the last dialog was closed, or at the current
working directory if no previous dialog had been opened.
If a nonempty custom path has been set then it has also set the
corresponding user path, so the behavior in that case is unchanged.
Dual Core is primarily known as one of the first troubleshooting steps when emulation or NetPlay misbehave.
I believe(?) the original intent with having it on by default was likely to support users with weaker machines. However, I believe it would be a lot more reasonable for users to manually enable dual core if they really need the performance boost, rather than it is for them to have come ask us in support channel why their cleanly-installed Dolphin is not emulating their games properly.
Instead, this creates a fragile first impression where a clean install of Dolphin is already set up in a way that leads to inexplicable crashes, subtle timing bugs, and NetPlay desyncs.
Note: This changes only applies to the Desktop application, since mobile devices *do* really need the performance boost.
Remove window hints clearing the flag Qt::WindowContextHelpButtonHint,
which is already off by default in Qt 6.
In Qt 5 this flag was set by default for QDialogs, and on Windows put a
? button in the corner of the title bar allowing users to activate Qt's
QWhatsThis help system for a given widget. Since we don't set that text
the ? button was useless and so we hid it manually.
