Closes#4533 (partly at least)
Release Notes:
- Added `project_panel.sort_mode` option to control explorer file sort
(directories first, mixed, files first)
## Summary
Adds three sorting modes for the project panel to give users more
control over how files and directories are displayed:
- **`directories_first`** (default): Current behaviour - directories
grouped before files
- **`mixed`**: Files and directories sorted together alphabetically
- **`files_first`**: filed grouped before directories
## Motivation
Users coming from different editors and file managers have different
expectations for file sorting. Some prefer directories grouped at the
top (traditional), while others prefer the macOS Finder-style mixed
sorting where "Apple1/", "apple2.tsx" and "Apple3/" appear
alphabetically mixed together.
### Screenshots
New sort options in settings:

### Agent usage
Copilot-cli/claude-code/codex-cli helped out a lot. I'm not from a rust
background, but really wanted this solved, and it gave me a chance to
play with some of the coding agents I'm not permitted to use for work
stuff

## Add relative line numbers on wrapped lines, take 2
This is a rework of https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/39268
that excludes
e7096d27a6.
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`.
A user on Discord requested this feature:
https://discord.com/channels/869392257814519848/1434188637389717556/1434188637389717556
I added a scrollbar setting called `completion_menu_scrollbar` to the
completion menu and defaulted it to "Never" to match past behavior.
Release Notes:
- editor: Add `editor.completion_menu_scrollbar` setting to show a
scrollbar in the completion menu
Some housekeeping updates:
- Update hardcoded actions/keybindings so they're pulled from the repo
- Mention settings window when useful
- Add more info about agent panel's font size
- Break sentences in individual lines
Release Notes:
- N/A
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!

The suggested `→` appears tiny, and almost looks like just a dot on my
monitor, and I got quite confused for a while thinking the
`whitespace_map.tab` setting wasn't working properly.

I think it would be really helpful if `⟶` was suggested instead since
that displays properly.

I am using `Fira Code` as my font on windows, however when I remove that
config to get the default font, it also still appears the same size. So
I don't believe this is just a font issue on my machine.
Thought I am using Windows, so I would be willing to believe this a
render issue specific to windows

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?
</details>
- 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`)
Closes#5185
Release Notes:
- Added an option to hide hidden files in the project panel by setting
`hide_hidden` in the project panel settings.

Just install Zed for the first time and got a warning from the first
config example i copied from docs.
Great design btw, immediately able to see that this is a well thought
out app. seems like i'll stick with zed and make it my new dev
'sanctuary'.

Closes #ISSUE
Adds handling for Enums with fields (i.e. not `enum Foo { Yes, No }`) in
Settings UI. Accomplished by creating default values for each element
with fields (in the derive macro), and rendering a toggle button group
with a button for each variant where switching the active variant sets
the value in the settings JSON to the default for the new active
variant.

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!)
Closes #ISSUE
Adds a dependency on `serde_path_to_error` to the workspace allowing us
to include the path to the setting that failed to parse on settings
parse failure.
Release Notes:
- N/A *or* Added/Fixed/Improved ...
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:

I was on the [Visual Customiztions - Editor
Scrollbar](https://zed.dev/docs/visual-customization#editor-scrollbar)
section of the docs, and copy and pasted the code block into my personal
Zed settings and saw there was a syntax error.
This is a PR to add a missing comma and fix the syntax error in the
docs.
First time contributing, please let me know if I missed any
steps/important info.

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.
