# Adopt an already displayed peek without another restore transition

The user confirmed the previous click-restoration fix keeps the window visible, but reported flicker. The inspected code still sent a WINDOWPOS transition in PeekSession.Commit, called ShowWindow(SW_SHOW) because the logical entry remained minimized during peek, then ran managed Focus, peer-by-peer group restacking and another native activation. These redundant operations are concrete source findings; their exact pixel-level contribution was not measured.

Changes: Commit now removes the temporary input subclass without repositioning, hiding or showing the existing window. The lease coordinator returns whether a live peek was adopted. Both immediate and deferred card-click paths carry this flag into Restore. An adopted window skips ShowWindow and group restacking. Native foreground activation is requested only if it is not already foreground; ordinary restore and its peer-order behavior are unchanged. Managed Focus is a fallback if the minimal native activation fails. Hover delay, card click target coverage and mouse-leave persistence are retained.

Validation: final .NET build against Unity 6000.0.83f1 assemblies passed with zero warnings/errors; 77 hover/ownership checks, 153 overflow and 92 status-layout checks passed (322 total). The deferred-adoption regression verifies the adoption result survives cleared temporary ownership, so queued restoration need not re-show the same window. git diff --check passed.

Actual Windows/Unity rendering, native focus/keyboard behavior and click-time flicker elimination remain unverified for this patch. A manual retry question was sent. No computer-use automation, screenshot capture, native mouse injection or foreground-window manipulation was executed by tools. Documentation descriptions remain accurate; capture/source-hash verification continues to report pending/stale captures rather than passing visual QA. Historical records and screenshot hashes were preserved.

XERJ: project MCP search for ActivateDocument, then current source inspection of commit, deferred restore and activation paths.
