Also to help the user, manpages are further split up into sub-pages +and are expanded + +A massif speedup has been implemented in the async input reading of dmenu. +It turned out glib's GInputStream async functions where very slow, so a custom +implementation has been made. Background loading is now close to the same speed +as loading at start before displaying. A million item list is now near instant. +On very large lists, the instant filtering automatically changes to be +postponed until the user stops typing. This severely reduces system load. + +On the new feature front, you can now change the flow in the listview from +vertical first to horizontal first. Making it mimic tables. + +{screenshot vertical } { screenshot horizontal } + +You can now set a fallback icon individual for each mode. + +You can now add a separate icon or textbox widget to the UI that displays the +current selected item. + +In dmenu mode (and script) you can now make (some) changes to the theme, for +example modifying the background color of the entry box. + +You can now put users scripts (for script mode) into +`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/rofi/scripts` directory and those are automatically available +in rofi. + + +Below is a more complete list of changes: # Changelog |
