General

• Added a horizontal scrollbar to project panel (#18513).
• Added new fold actions to toggle folds (cmd-k cmd-l), fold every fold (cmd-k cmd-0) unfold every fold (cmd-k cmd-j) to fold recursively (cmd-k cmd-[) and unfold recursively (cmd-k cmd-]).
• Added snippets: configure snippets command to create and modify snippets (#18453; thanks loczek).
• Added snippets: open folder command for opening the ~/.config/zed/snippets directory (#18453; thanks loczek).

• Added keyboard shortcuts inside tooltips in the project search, buffer search, etc (#18282).

• Improved alignment of rendered tables in Markdown Preview (#18315; thanks andarut).
• Improved consistency and reliability of direnv detection by making direnv integration use direct (direnv export json) mode by default instead of relying on a shell hook (#18536; thanks WeetHet).
• Improved language server log panel split ergonomics (#18527).
• Improved experience of configuring external formatters by making formatter arguments optional (#18340; thanks twz123).
• Improved the git blame gutter to take up only the space required to display the longest git author name in the current file (#18145).
• Changed the behavior of the git gutter so that diff hunk are expanded immediately when clicking the gutter, and hunk controls are displayed above the hunk (#18313).
• Changed the view the release notes button in the update toast to trigger the auto update: view release notes locally action (#18486).
• Changed ui_font_weight and buffer_font_weight settings to require values to be between 100 and 950 (inclusive) (#18594; thanks JunkuiZhang).

SSH Remoting

• Fixed Reveal in Finder/File Manager, Copy Path, Copy Relative Path and Copy file location actions not working with multibuffers (#18626).
• Fixed the behavior of {"terminal": {"blinking": "[on|off|terminal_controlled]"} to work correctly and to work correctly when custom cursor_shape is set (#18538).
  • terminal.cursor_shape only controls the default shape of the terminal, not the blinking.
  • terminal.blinking = on means that it's always blinking, regardless of what terminal programs want
  • terminal.blinking = off means that it's never blinking, regardless of what terminal programs want
  • terminal.blinking = terminal_controlled (default) means that it's blinking depending on what terminal programs want. when a terminal program resets the cursor to default, it sets it back to terminal.cursor_shape if that is set.

• Fixed the cursor shape in the editor not changing back to default when {"cursor_shape": "..."} setting is removed. This does not apply to Vim mode (#18379).
• Fixed sending alt-enter in terminal (#18363).

• Removed automatic reinstallation of language servers (#18318). (It mostly didn't work)
• SSH Remote: Fixed cmd-O to correctly open files on the remote host (#18308).
• Linux: Fixed some cases where Linux X11 mouse scrolling didn't work at all (#18484; thanks mgsloan).

v0.155.2-pre

Bug fixes

  • This setting defaults to false.
  • If enabled, the inlay hint backgrounds will use the hint.background color from the theme.
