Feature/dynamic title update

[ShreyanshK1103]

Summary

This pull request fixes the desktop application's window title synchronization behavior.
Previously, the title did not always update when opening, editing, saving, or closing a model, and it was not reset when navigating back to the dashboard via the navbar logo.

What Was Changed

Removed the unused updateTitle IPC bridge as requested in review

Reused existing IPC channels (modelOpened, modelClosed) instead of adding new preload functions

Corrected title handling in desktop.js to properly call setTitle / setRepresentedFilename

Ensured the title updates when:

• opening a model

• editing a model

• saving a model

navigating between ThreatModel and ThreatModelEdit

Added title reset when clicking the Threat Dragon logo (navigating home)

Cleaned up inconsistent naming and removed accidental typos introduced in prior iterations

How Threat Dragon Worked Before

Titles were sometimes stale or incorrect

Returning to the dashboard did not reset the window title

A new IPC (updateTitle) was added but was unnecessary and removed during review

The existing flow used modelOpened for title updates, but the implementation was incomplete and inconsistent

How It Works Now

All title changes pass through existing IPC methods

The title always reflects the current model’s name

Returning to the dashboard resets to the default title

Behavior is now consistent across all pages

Testing

Functional behavior verified manually across:

model open

model edit + save

model close

navigation back to dashboard

No changes to unit tests were required as functionality was restored, not extended

@ShreyanshK1103 do not worry about the failed pipeline test, issue #1380

Hello, I’m following up to see if any changes are needed on this PR. Please let me know. Thank you.

Hello @ShreyanshK1103 , good to see new functionality being added
There are some points to consider:

• does there need to be a new function in the context bridge? The (relevant) existing functions already inform electron and the renderer of the filename after on file save
• you have not used the pull request template, which contains checkboxes for stating that you have created tests and also that you have declared any use of AI
• we have a contributors guide that sets out the acceptable use of AI here:
  https://github.com/OWASP/threat-dragon/blob/main/contributing.md#use-of-ai

@jgadsden
Thank you for the review.

I’ll update the PR based on your points:

I will remove the new contextBridge function and instead use the existing IPC events such as model-opened to update the window title.

I will revise the Electron side to update the title within the existing handlers instead of introducing a new channel.

I will update the PR to follow the pull request template and include the required AI use declaration.

I’ll push the revised changes shortly.

@ShreyanshK1103 please follow the restrictions on the use of (generative) AI that all our contributors to pull requests + issues + comments are required to follow

Hello @ShreyanshK1103

• did you use AI for this implementation ? You must use the PR template and provide the declarations
• the electron server is made aware of changes to the file name and when the file is closed, and is able to change the title bar
• the window title is only to be changed for the desktop app using electron, so there does not seem to be any reason for the renderer to change the title
• test cases should be provided for this new feature

Hello @jgadsden,

Apologies for the delay — I’ve had final exams this week.

Thanks for the feedback. I understand that the title update should rely on the existing Electron flow and remain desktop-only. I’ll revise the implementation accordingly, rebase onto the latest main branch, and add the required tests before updating the PR.

Actually the tests failed due to a small mistake from my side I did not pull the latest changes while coding the solution which neglected the latest tests.

And for the template I will use the mentioned one where the use of AI is stated , as I used AI only for writing of the PR template.

I will quickly look onto it as my exams are over now.

Thank you for your patience.
