# V1.3.0: Dan vs. Greg: The never ending story.
|
|
|
|

|
2016-11-24 08:23:14 +00:00
|
|
|
This release mostly focussed on cleaning up, refactoring and more. On of the big changes is that the gui is no longer
|
|
|
|
|
based on hard-coded positions. We introduced a widget system with boxes, scrollbars, separators, listview and textboxes.
|
|
|
|
|
The boxes (vertical and horizontal) allows us to nice structure the layout and have them resize according to rules when
|
|
|
|
|
the window changes size.

|
|
|
|
This allowed us to make changes at run-time. In the future I hope we can use this to improve the theming. The cleanup
|
|
|
|
|
and refactoring is not finished and will continue for the next release.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Beside this we still managed to get some new features in:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Dynamic window size
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
rofi can how resize the window to fit the number of visible entries, so as you type and the list of options becomes
|
|
|
|
|
small, so does the windows (this is disabled by default). Rofi will try to keep the text box at the same place so you
|
|
|
|
|
don't have to move focus. At the bottom of the screen the window layout is reversed so the textbox is at the bottom.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
insert small gif here.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Theme selector
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To make it easier to get a good looking rofi, we included a theme-selector script and ship rofi with a set of themes.
|
|
|
|
|
The script allows you to preview themes, and make them the default theme.
