The Zed Plex fonts were found to violate the OFL by using the word Plex
in the name.
Lilex has better ligatures and box-drawing characters than Zed Plex
Mono, but Zed Plex Sans should be identical
to IBM Plex Sans.
Closes#15542Closeszed-industries/zed-fonts#31
Release Notes:
- The "Zed Plex Sans" and "Zed Plex Mono" fonts have been replaced with
"IBM Plex Sans" and "Lilex". The old names still work for backward
compatibility. Other than fixing line-drawing characters, and improving
the ligatures, there should be little visual change as the fonts are all
of the same family.
- Introduced ".ZedSans" and ".ZedMono" as aliases to allow us to easily
change the default fonts in the future. These currently default to "IBM
Plex Sans" and "Lilex" respectively.
Closes#32538
This PR adjusts the defaults for splitting panes along the horizontal
and vertical actions. Based upon user feedback, the adjusted values seem
more reasonable as default settings, hence, go with these instead.
Release Notes:
- Changed the default split directions for the `pane: split horizontal`
and `pane: split vertical` actions. You can restore the old behavior by
modifying the `pane_split_direction_horizontal` and
`pane_split_direction_vertical` values in your settings.
Release Notes:
- Added settings status_bar.show_active_language_button to show/hide the
language button in the status bar.
The motivation for this is visual, I have had zero issues with its
functionality.
The language switcher can still be accessed by the command palette,
menu, or a keyboard shortcut.
------
This is my first Zed and first Rust PR, so criticism is very welcome.
I know there has been discussion around how the status bar settings are
structured and named, and I am happy to change it to whatever is best. I
was also not sure what order to put it in in the settings default.json.
Feedback welcome.
Here is a picture of it in action:

This mirrors VSCode setting that inspired `snippet_sort_order` to begin
with; VSCode supports inline/top/bottom/none, with none completely
disabling snippet completion. See
https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editing/intellisense#_snippets-in-suggestions
This is helpful for LSPs that do not allow configuring snippets via
configuration such as clangd.
Release Notes:
- Added `none` as one of the values for `snippet_sort_order` to
completely disable snippet completion.
Closes#22869
Release Notes:
- Added `show_menus` setting to always show menu bar for Linux and
Windows.

When [`drag_and_drop_selection` is
true](https://zed.dev/docs/configuring-zed#drag-and-drop-selection),
users can make a selection in the buffer and then drag and drop it to a
new location. However, the editor forces users to wait 300ms after mouse
down before dragging. If users try to drag before this delay has
elapsed, they will create a new text selection instead, which can create
the impression that drag and drop does not work.
I made two changes to improve the UX of this feature:
* If users do not want a delay before drag and drop is enabled, they can
set the `drag_and_drop_selection.delay_ms` setting to 0.
* If the user has done a mouse down on a text selection, the cursor
changes to a copy affordance as soon as the configured delay has
elapsed, rather than waiting for them to start dragging. This way they
don't need to guess at when the delay has elapsed.
The default settings for this feature are now:
```
"drag_and_drop_selection": {
"enabled": true,
"delay_ms": 300
}
```
Closes#33915

After:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/726d0dbf-e58b-41ad-93d2-1a758640b422
Release Notes:
- Migrate `drag_and_drop_selection` setting to
`drag_and_drop_selection.enabled`.
- Add `drag_and_drop_selection.delay_ms` setting to configure the delay
that must elapse before drag and drop is allowed.
- Show a ready to drag cursor affordance as soon as the delay has
elapsed

This disables word based completions in Plain Text and Markdown buffers
by default.
Word-based completion when typing natural language can be quite
disruptive, in particular at the end of a line (e.g. markdown style
lists) where `enter` will accept word completions rather than insert a
newline (see screenshot). I think the default, empty buffer experience
in Zed should be closer to a zed-mode experience -- just an editor
getting out of your way to let you type and not having to mash
escape/cmd-z repeatedly to undo a over-aggressive completion.

Re-enable the existing behavior with:
```json
"languages": {
"Plain Text": { "completions": { "words": "fallback" } },
"Markdown": { "completions": { "words": "fallback" } },
},
```
Or disable Word based completions everywhere with:

"words": "fallback"
},
```
Release Notes:
- Disable word-completions by default in Plain Text and Markdown Buffers
Similar to https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/34040, this PR
allows to control via settings whether the terminal card in the agent
panel should be expanded. It is set to true by default.
Release Notes:
- agent: Added a setting to control whether terminal cards are expanded
in the agent panel, thus showing or hiding the full command output.
This PR adds the `expand_edit_card` setting, which controls whether edit
cards in the agent panel are expanded, thus showing or not the full diff
of a given file's AI-driven change. I personally prefer to have these
cards collapsed by default as I am mostly reviewing diffs using either
the review multibuffer or the diffs within the file's buffer itself.
Didn't want to change the default behavior as that was intentionally
chosen, so here we are! :)
Open to feedback about the setting name; I've iterated between a few
options and don't necessarily feel like the current one is the best.
Release Notes:
- agent: Added a setting to control whether edit cards are expanded in
the agent panel, thus showing or hiding the full diff of a file's
changes.
Closes#33253 in a way that doesn't regress #32175 - namely,
automatically adjusts the contrast between the foreground and background
text in the terminal such that it's above a certain threshold. The
threshold is configurable in settings, and can be set to 0 to turn off
this feature and use exactly the colors the theme specifies even if they
are illegible.
## One Light Theme Before

/>
(Last row is highlighted because otherwise the text is unreadable; the
foreground and background are the same color.)
## One Light Theme After
(This is with the new default contrast adjustment setting.)

This approach was inspired by @mitchellh's use of automatic contrast
adjustment in [Ghostty](https://ghostty.org/) - thanks, Mitchell! The
main difference is that we're using APCA's formula instead of WCAG for
[these
reasons](https://khan-tw.medium.com/wcag2-are-you-still-using-it-ui-contrast-visibility-standard-readability-contrast-f34eb73e89ee).
Release Notes:
- Added automatic dynamic contrast adjustment for terminal foreground
and background colors
This commit introduces the `project_notifications` tool, which
proactively pushes notifications to the agent.
Unlike other tools, `Thread` automatically invokes this tool on every
turn, even when the LLM doesn't ask for it. When notifications are
available, the tool use and results are inserted into the thread,
simulating an LLM tool call.
As with other tools, users can disable `project_notifications` in
Profiles if they do not want them.
Currently, the tool only notifies users about stale files: that is,
files that have been edited by the user while the agent is also working
on them. In the future, notifications may be expanded to include
compiler diagnostics, long-running processes, and more.
Release Notes:
- Added `project_notifications` tool
Closes#7243
- Adds `top_slot_items` to `uniform_list` component to offset list
items.
- Adds `ToPosition` scroll strategy to `uniform_list` to scroll list to
specified index.
- Adds `sticky_items` component which can be used along with
`uniform_list` to add sticky functionality to any view that implements
uniform list.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/eb508fa4-167e-4595-911b-52651537284c
Release Notes:
- Added sticky scroll to the project panel, which keeps parent
directories visible while scrolling. This feature is enabled by default.
To disable it, toggle `sticky_scroll` in settings.
Closes#21262
Introduces a new setting `keep_selection_on_copy`, which controls
whether the current text selection is preserved after copying in the
terminal. The default behavior remains the same (`true`), but setting it
to `false` will clear the selection after the copy operation, matching
VSCode's behavior.
Additionally, the terminal context now exposes a `selection` flag
whenever text is selected.
This allows users to match VSCode and other terminal's smart copy
behavior.
Release Notes:
- Expose `selection` to terminal context when there is text selected in
the terminal
- Add `keep_selection_on_copy` terminal setting. Can be set to false to
clear the text selection when copying text.
**VSCode Behavior Example:**
**settings.json:**
```json
"terminal": {
"keep_selection_on_copy": false
},
```
**keymap.json:**
```json
{
"context": "Terminal && selection",
"bindings": {
"ctrl-c": "terminal::Copy"
}
}
```
Closes#22991
Release Notes:
- Added support for respecting the NO_PROXY environment variable when
any HTTP proxy is configured. For the exact NO_PROXY env var strings
that are supported, see [NoProxy in the reqwest
docs](https://docs.rs/reqwest/latest/reqwest/struct.NoProxy.html#method.from_env).

In helix the `f`, `F`, `t`, `T`, left and right motions wrap lines. I
added that by default.
Release Notes:
- vim: The `use_multiline_find` setting is replaced by binding to the
correct action in the keymap:
```
"f": ["vim::PushFindForward", { "before": false, "multiline": true }],
"t": ["vim::PushFindForward", { "before": true, "multiline": true }],
"shift-f": ["vim::PushFindBackward", { "after": false, "multiline": true
}],
"shift-t": ["vim::PushFindBackward", { "after": true, "multiline": true
}],
```
- helix: `f`/`t`/`shift-f`/`shift-t`/`h`/`l`/`left`/`right` are now
multiline by default (like helix)
Closes#31728
This PR introduced new setting `"helix_mode"`. Enabling which will
enable the `vim_mode` along with `helix` behavior.
This solves issue where `vim`'s `default_mode` was being used to switch
between mode instead of opening in `default_mode`.
When `helix_mode` is enabled switcing to `Normal mode` will now switch
to `HelixNormal`
Release Notes:
- Fixed - escape key not switching to normal mode when default_mode is
insert
- Added - `helix_mode` setting to enable/disable helix key bindings

Closes https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/4678
Also adds the code to support `textDocument/colorPresentation`
counterpart that serves as a resolve mechanism for the document colors.
The resolve itself is not run though, and the editor does not
accommodate color presentations in the editor yet — until a well
described use case is provided.
Use `lsp_document_colors` editor settings to alter the presentation and
turn the feature off.
Release Notes:
- Start showing inline previews for LSP document colors
Release Notes:
- Add a setting to show the minimap only on the current active editor
(file)
- This can be configured on `settings.json`:
```json
{
"minimap": {
"display_in": "active_editor", // defaults to "all_editors"
}
}
```
- The minimap won't hide if you go from an editor pane to the terminal,
the project panel, the search bar, etc. It will only hide if you go from
one editor pane to another.
Preview:

Only the active editor (left) displays the minimap.
Closes https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/12091
Use `"save_non_dirty_buffers": false` editor settings to disable this
behavior.
Release Notes:
- Fixed formatting effects not triggered when saving unmodified
singleton buffers
Closes#7334
# Changes
This PR makes the minimum width allocated for line numbers in the side
gutter configurable in units of character width via the
`"line_number_base_width"` attribute in `gutter` settings. Set the
previously hard coded value of `4` as default.
Together with other settings (`"folds"`, `"breakpoints"`,...) this gives
the user control over the gutter width.
If the number of lines exceedes the base width, the number of digits in
the largest line number is chosen instead. This is consistent with
previous behaviour.
Screenshot for reference:
