# V1.5.0: The Hoff uses it.
2017-11-05 15:04:46 -05:00
After the large previous release, we are hopefully back to more regular smaller releases.
This release is focused on squashing some bugs and hopefully improving the user experience.
2017-12-24 05:22:59 -05:00
But to satisfy people hunkering for new things, we also included a few new features.
2017-11-05 15:04:46 -05:00
## New features
### Specify matching field
2017-12-24 05:22:59 -05:00
What field rofi should match on the drun view has been a source of long discussions. Some people only want to match the
name, others want to include the field with the tooltip text. In this release you can now set what fields are used for
matching for both the drun as window browser.

### Pass extra properties in script mode
2017-12-24 05:22:59 -05:00
As a first step in improving script mode, support for passing properties where added.
You can now, from the script, set the `prompt`, a `message`, if the row contain `markup` and `active`, `urgent`.

### Negated matching
2017-12-24 05:22:59 -05:00
The matching engine has been extended so, part of, queries can be negated. Searching for `terminal -vim` will list all
fields that match `terminal` but do not contain `vim`.

### Hashtag rofi?
We have updated the theme format so that the '#' prefix before the element name is now optional.
Beside being unneeded, it made the multi-selector look weird.
```css
entry,prompt {
background-color: DarkRed;
text-color: White;
}
```

## Bug fixes
2017-11-05 15:04:46 -05:00
### Prompt colon
2017-12-24 05:22:59 -05:00
This is a controversial one, being the cause of heated issues in the past. The prompt string of rofi is now left
unmodified. Themes, like the default theme, can re-add the colon if desired.
2017-11-05 15:04:46 -05:00
### History size
2017-12-24 05:22:59 -05:00
On frequent request, you can now tweak the size of the history each modi keeps. While not recommended to change as it
can cause performance issues, this allows power users to tweak it to their liking.
