 ## 2026-04-20 - Build 2604 (Version 105-LTS - Patch 2) - April 2026
 
+* Resolved [#2132](https://github.com/Krypton-Suite/Standard-Toolkit/issues/2132), Drag feedback artifact: when dragging a dockable page, a small dark artefact appeared in the top-left corner of the screen. The drop feedback window (`DropSolidWindow`) was created at (0,0); it is now positioned off-screen initially and when no drop target is matched.
 * Implemented [#2952](https://github.com/Krypton-Suite/Standard-Toolkit/issues/2962), Set license header via `editorconfig`
 * Resolved [#2935](https://github.com/Krypton-Suite/Standard-Toolkit/issues/2935), Maximized MDI window form border drawn on wrong monitor (secondary monitor); `DropSolidWindow` now uses screen coordinates for `DesktopBounds`; non-client border painting uses a DC compatible with the window's monitor
 * Resolved [#2103](https://github.com/Krypton-Suite/Standard-Toolkit/issues/2103), Ensure that `KryptonForm` properly supports RTL/LTR
