 1. ✅ TRAX volume — `LocalGain = GameAudioVolume * 0.2` so TRAX is 20% of the desktop audio slider (was 100%, now quieter)
 2. ✅ TRAX tooltip — replaced `ToolTip` binding with `ToolTipService.ToolTip` + `Placement="Top"` to fix z-order inside Viewbox overlay
 3. ✅ Mic meter boost — `MeterLevel` multiplied by 1.2× before clamping so the bar reads ~20% higher at same input level
-4. ✅ Click-to-position sliders — clicking anywhere on the mic/game volume slider track now jumps the thumb to that position before starting the drag (fixed: RepeatButton no longer overrides click position; Thumb drag still works)
+4. ✅ Click-to-position sliders — clicking anywhere on the mic/game volume slider track now jumps the thumb to that position before starting the drag
 5. ✅ Backdrop visibility — the dedicated `<Image>` now binds `Visibility` to `BackdropVisible` (ViewModel property); compositor checks `IsVisible` before blit
 6. ✅ Rename "Backdrop" → "Game Capture" in `EnsureBackdrop()` + test assertions
 7. ✅ Elements panel — new "ELEMENTS" section beneath Sources list; per-element config with live preview, ✕ revert, ✓ applied indicator
 8. ✅ Webcam border config — color hex input + color swatch picker, border thickness 0–10 slider
-9. ✅ Countdown source — `SourceType.Countdown`, pick list (Starting/BRB scenes only), timer minutes 1–30 default 15, inline slider in source list row
