# 1.5.2: Procrastination in progress
Rofi 1.5.2 is another bug-fix release in the 1.5 series.
## Fix border drawing
Issue: #792, #783
There turned out to be a bug in how borders are drawn. It would overlap parts of the border on corners, screwing up
transparency.
This is now fixed.
## Improve Icon handling
Issue: #860
Several bugs around Icon handling have been fixed:
* Failing to load multiple (identical icons) on initial load.
* Preload user-set icon theme.
* Use the common threadpool in rofi for the icon fetching, instead of spawning a custom one.
## New sort syntax
Because of all the changes to the sorting methods in rofi, the command-line options for it where very confusing.
To fix this they have been changed.
The `sort` option is now used to enable/disable sorting. (This can also be changed at run-time using the hotkey)
The `sort-method` allows you to set the sorting method. Currently it supports **normal** (levenshtein) and **fzf**.
## Documentation updates
Issue: #879, #867, #837, #831, #804
Thanks to all the people highlighting or providing fixes to the documentation.
## Improving the ssh known hosts file parser
Issue: #820
The original known hosts parser was very limited. The parser has been extended to a bit more robust.
## Additions
For some reason I can never make a release without adding more features to it. (Feature creep?).
### Option to change the negate character
Issue: #877
The option to negate a query: `foo -bar` e.g. search for all items matching `foo` but not `bar` caused a lot of
confusion. It seems people often use rofi to also add arguments to applications (that start with a -).
To help with this, the negate character (`-`) can be changed, or disabled.
To disable:
```
rofi -matching-negate-char '\0'
```
### Modify the DRUN display string
Issue: #858
An often requested feature is the ability to change the display string for the drun modi.
The `-drun-display-format` option is added that allows just this.
> -drun-display-format
>
> The format string for the drun dialog:
> * name: the application's name
> * generic: the application's generic name
> * exec: the application's executable
> * categories: the application's categories
> * comment: the application comment
>
> Default: {name} [({generic})]
Items between `[]` are only displayed when the field within is set. So in the above example, the `()` are omitted when
`{generic}` is not set.
### Theme format now supports environment variables
You can use environment variables as part of your theme/configuration file property value.
Environment variables start with `$` and the name is surrounded by `{}`.
So to query the environment `FOO` you can do:
```css
#window {
background: ${FOO};
}
```
The environment is then parsed as a normal value.
