## Add relative line numbers on wrapped lines, take 2
This is a rework of https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/39268
that excludes
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/39268/commits/e7096d27a6463f6eb7c2a821637c5773b2460c10.
This commit introduced some line number rendering issues as described in
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/41422.
While @ConradIrwin suggested we try to pass in the buffer rows from the
calling method instead of the snapshot, that
appears to have had unintended consequences and I don't think the two
calculations were intended to do the same thing. Hence, this PR has
removed those changes.
This PR also includes the migration fix originally done by @MrSubidubi
in https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/41351.
## Original PR description and release notes.
**Problem:** Current relative line numbering creates a mismatch with
vim-style navigation when soft wrap is enabled. Users must mentally
calculate whether target lines are wrapped segments or logical lines,
making `<n>j/k` navigation unreliable and cognitively demanding.
**How things work today:**
- Real line navigation (`j/k` moves by logical lines): Requires
determining if visible lines are wrapped segments before jumping. Can't
jump to wrapped lines directly.
- Display line navigation (`j/k` moves by display rows): Line numbers
don't correspond to actual row distances for multi-line jumps.
**Proposed solution:** Count and number each display line (including
wrapped segments) for relative numbering. This creates direct
visual-to-navigational correspondence, where the relative number shown
always matches the `<n>j/k` distance needed.
**Benefits:**
- Eliminates mental overhead of distinguishing wrapped vs. logical lines
- Makes relative line numbers consistently actionable regardless of wrap
state
- Preserves intuitive "what you see is what you navigate" principle
- Maintains vim workflow efficiency in narrow window scenarios
Also explained and discussed in
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/discussions/25733.
Release Notes:
- Added support for counting wrapped lines as relative lines and for
displaying line numbers for wrapped segments. Changes
`relative_line_numbers` from a boolean to an enum: `enabled`,
`disabled`, or `wrapped`.
Closes#41422
This completely broke line numbering as described in the linked issue
and scrolling up does not have the correct numbers any more.
Release Notes:
- NOTE: The `relative_line_numbers` change
(https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/39268) was reverted and did
not make the release cut!
Release Notes:
- Remove Windows/Linux from Getting Started
- Consolidate download & system into new Installation page
- Move Remote Dev out of Windows and into Remote Development
- Add Uninstall page
- Add updates page
- Remove addl learning materials from intro
## Summary
- Document the `stable`/`preview`/`nightly` top-level keys that let
users scope settings overrides per release channel.
- Provide an example `settings.json` snippet and call out that overrides
replace array values rather than merging them.
- Mention that UI-driven changes edit the root config so per-channel
blocks might need manual updates.
## Testing
- Not run (docs only).
Fixes#40458.

Closes#5294
This PR adds a line ending indicator to the status bar, hidden by
default as discussed in
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/5294.
### Changes
- 8b063a22d8700bed9c93989b9e0f6a064b2e86cf add the indicator and
`status_bar.line_endings_button` setting.
- ~~9926237b709dd4e25ce58d558fd385d63b405f3b changes
`status_bar.line_endings_button` from a boolean to an enum:~~
<details> <summary> show details </summary>
- `always` Always show line endings indicator.
- `non_native` Indicate when line endings do not match the current
platform.
- `lf_only` Indicate when using unix-style (LF) line endings only.
- `crlf_only` Indicate when using windows-style (CRLF) line endings
only.
- `never` Do not show line endings indicator.
I know this many options might be overdoing it, but I was torn between
the pleasant default of `non_native` and the simplicity of `lf_only` /
`crlf_only`.
My thinking was if one is developing on a project which exclusively uses
one line-ending style or the other, it would be nice to be able to
configure no-indicator-in-the-happy-case behavior regardless of the
platform zed is running on. But I'm not really familiar with any
projects that use exclusively CRLF line endings in practice. Is this a
scenario worth supporting or just something I dreamed up?

- 01174191e4cf337069e7a31b0f0432ae94c52515 rename the action context for
`line ending: Toggle` -> `line ending selector: Toggle`.
When running the action in the command palette with the old name I felt
surprised to be greeted with an additional menu, with the new name it
feels more predictable (plus now it matches
`language_selector::Toggle`!)
### Future work
Hidden status bar items still get padding, creating inconsistent spacing
(and it kind of stands out where I placed the line-endings button):
<img alt="the gap after the indicator is larger than for other buttons"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/24a346d4-3ff6-4f7f-bd87-64d453c2441a"
/>
I started a new follow-up PR to address that:
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/39992
Release Notes:
- Added line ending indicator to the status bar (disabled by default;
enabled by setting `status_bar.line_endings_button` to `true`)
Release Notes:
- Fixed misplaced comma in the autoclose description from:
"when you type (, Zed will ...)"
to
"when you type, (Zed will ...)"

Closes https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/38547
Release Notes:
- Reverted the ability to show/hide the titlebar. This caused rendering
bugs on
macOS, and we're preparing for the redesign which requires the toolbar
being present.

Closes#37829
This PR introduces and exposes `REPLSettings` to control the number of
lines and columns in the REPL. These settings are integrated into the
existing configuration system, allowing for customization and management
through the standard settings interface.
#### Changes
- Added `REPLSettings` struct with `max_number_of_lines` and
`max_number_of_columns` fields.
- Integrated `REPLSettings` with the settings system by implementing the
`Settings` trait.
- Ensured compatibility with the workspace and existing settings
infrastructure.
Release Notes:
- Add configuration "repl" to settings to configure max lines and
columns for repl.

It was previously copied incorrectly from `Terminal: Copy On Select`.
Release Notes:
- Fixed wrong description in `Terminal: Cursor Shape` in `Configuring
Zed` document
At RustConf we were demo'ing zed, and it continually popped open the
chat panel.
We're usually inured to this because the Chat panel doesn't open unless
a Guest
is in the channel, but it made me sad that we were showing a long stream
of
vacuous comments and unresponded to questions on every demo screen.
We may bring chat back in the future, but we need more thought on the
UX, and
we need to rebuild the backend to not use the existing collab server
that we're
trying to move off of.
Release Notes:
- Removed the chat feature from Zed (Sorry to the 5 of you who use this
on the regular!)
Within our hosted docs, we are missing documentation for quite a lot of
settings - sometimes for newer settings, sometimes for settings that are
more than two years old. This leads (amongst other things) to feature
requests for features that are already supported, false issue reports
(because people couldn't find the setting for what caused the issue
within the documentation) and generally just takes time for for both
these affected by the missing documentation as well as these handling
the questions around it.
This change here takes a stab at the problem by adding more
documentation for a lot supported setting (not all of it) as well as
reorganizing some settings so that some stuff can (hopefully) be found
more easily. Eventually, we should find a better method for this, but
it's still better than informing people for the n-th time that we e.g.
have `agent_font_size` for the agent panel. Manually audited twice but
I'll take another thorough look before merging.
Release Notes:
- N/A
Introduce `min_words_query_len` threshold for automatic word completion
display, and set it to 3 by default.
Re-enable word completions in Markdown and Plaintext.
Release Notes:
- Introduced `min_words_query_len` threshold for automatic word
completion display, and set it to 3 by default to make them less
intrusive
Release Notes:
- Added an option for the status_bar.cursor_position_button. Setting to
`false` will hide the button. It defaults to `true`.
This builds off the recent work to hide the language selection button
(https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/33977). I tried to follow
that pattern, and to pick a clear name for the option, but any
feedback/change is welcome.

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.
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 change adds documentation for the `terminal.minimum_contrast`
setting to the docs as we've had a lot of reports regarding the contrast
adjustments, yet are missing proper documentation (aside from that in
the `defaults.json`) for it.
