# 1.5.3: Time delayed progress
Rofi 1.5.3 is another bug-fix release in the 1.5 series.
2019-06-16 17:37:12 +00:00
There is one breaking change in the theme naming and there are a few small new features (tweaks) in this release.
## Sidebar renamed to mode-switcher
The selection buttons to select between the different modi was still called `sidebar` a remnant from the past.
This has now been renamed to `mode-switcher`.
## Icons in dmenu
Just like in window,drun and script modi you can add icons to the list in dmenu mode.
The syntax is similar to the script modi:
```bash
echo -en "Firefox\0icon\x1ffirefox\ngimp\0icon\x1fgimp" | rofi -dmenu -no-config -show-icons
```

The entries are separated by a `\n` newline (normal dmenu behaviour).

The extra parameters can be added after a `\0` null character, the key and value are separated by a `\x1f` unit

separator character.
## Ellipsizing listview entries
If you have very long entries in your view that get ellipsized (cut off at the end indicated by ...) you can now select,
at runtime, where they are cut off (start, middle or end).
You cycle through the options with the `alt+.` keybinding.
