@@ -27,6 +27,7 @@ Unreleased` header.
 - On Windows, fix consecutive calls to `window.set_fullscreen(Some(Fullscreen::Borderless(None)))` resulting in losing previous window state when eventually exiting fullscreen using `window.set_fullscreen(None)`.
 - On Web, remove queuing fullscreen request in absence of transient activation.
 - On Web, fix setting cursor icon overriding cursor visibility.
+- On Wayland, fix resize being sent on focus change.
