Rofi 1.7.0 is another bug-fix release that also removes a lot of deprecated features. Even though this might not be
popular, the deprecation of these options is needed to keep **rofi** maintainable.
Beside mostly bug-fixes some changes where made to improve the theming and 'abnormal' use of rofi.
## FileBrowser
TonCherAmi made several very nice usability improvements to the file-browser. His changes allow you to define sorting
and ordering of the entries and chaneg the default start directory.
These options can be set using the new 'nested' configuration format that we are testing in rofi:
```css
configuration {
filebrowser {
/** Directory the file browser starts in. */
directory: "/some/directory";
/**
* Sorting method. Can be set to:
* - "name"
* - "mtime" (modification time)
* - "atime" (access time)
* - "ctime" (change time)
*/
sorting-method: "name";
/** Group directories before files. */
directories-first: true;
}
}
```
## Clickable button and icons
```css
icon-paste {
expand: false;
filename: "gtk-paste";
size: 24;
vertical-align: 0.5;
action: "kb-primary-paste";
}
```
```css
button-paste {
expand: false;
content: "My Clickable Message";
vertical-align: 0.5;
action: "kb-primary-paste";
}
```
## File Completion
## Timeout actions
These options can be set using the new 'nested' configuration format that we are testing in rofi:
```css
configuration {
timeout {
delay: 15;
action: "kb-cancel";
}
}
```
## Background image and gradients
```css
window {
background-image: url("/tmp/i3.png", both);
}
element {
children: [element-icon, element-text];
background-image: linear-gradient(to bottom, black/20%, white/20%, black/10%);
}
```
