|
|
|
|
|
|
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.

## 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.
