The “Change Pal’s Information” dialog had inconsistent label/field alignment, and its last control exposed protocol behavior as a single compatibility checkbox. This updates the dialog to use a clearer aligned layout and surfaces protocol selection explicitly as AUTO, IPMSG, or IPTUX.

  • Dialog layout

    • Switch the form body to a grid-based layout so labels and inputs align consistently.
    • Keep the existing fields and interactions intact while improving scanability of the dialog.
  • Protocol selection

    • Replace the trailing compatibility checkbox with a Protocol combo box.
    • Map the UI directly to three modes:
      • AUTO: preserve detected/default compatibility behavior
      • IPMSG: force IP Messenger-compatible behavior
      • IPTUX: force iptux protocol behavior
  • Model behavior

    • Add explicit protocol override state to PalInfo instead of overloading a boolean UI control.
    • Keep existing compatibility checks working by resolving them from the selected protocol mode.
  • Dialog robustness

    • Guard the icon-selection path so applying dialog changes does not fail when no face-picture item is selected.

Example of the new protocol model behavior:

palInfo.setProtocol(PalProtocol::AUTO);   // use detected compatibility
palInfo.setProtocol(PalProtocol::IPMSG);  // force non-iptux behavior
palInfo.setProtocol(PalProtocol::IPTUX);  // force iptux behavior

this part is weird, you should change the Pal model, and the model change trigger the UImodel change

@copilot window stuck after click "OK" in the popup "Change Pal's Information"

Addressed in 1377695. I restored the face-picture button’s combo-box binding in the dialog and added a regression test for that wiring so the Change Pal dialog no longer gets stuck after using the updated form.
