# Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

## [0.7.0] - 2026-08-15

### Breaking Changes

- Context Menu was rewritten. It is now an element you attach to a trigger you
  have already built — `context_menu(id, my_element).menu(|menu, window, cx| …)`
  — rather than an `Entity<ContextMenuState>` the view has to own and render.
  `ContextMenuState`, `ContextMenu::trigger` and `menu_separator` are gone;
  `menu_item` takes only a label, and entries are assembled with
  `menu.item(…).separator().header(…)` instead of a `Vec<MenuEntry>`

### Added

- Markdown text selection: drag to select across a whole document, double-click
  for a word, triple-click for a block. `Markdown::selected_text()` returns the
  selection for the embedding app to put on the clipboard, and
  `MarkdownStyle::selection_background` styles it. Selecting inside one document
  clears the selection in its siblings, so a page of separate documents behaves
  like one. Needs the retained `Entity<Markdown>` form — see
  `examples/markdown_selection.rs`
- `MarkdownStyle::soft_break_as_hard_break`, for source where a single newline
  is meant as a line break, as in LLM and GitHub-flavored output
- Context Menu: gpui action support (`menu_item("Rename").action(Box::new(Rename))`),
  which dispatches to whatever was focused before the menu opened and reads the
  item's keyboard shortcut from the keymap instead of hardcoding it
- Context Menu: section headers, checkmark items (`toggled`), keyboard
  navigation that skips separators and disabled items, hover and keyboard focus
  kept in sync, scroll-into-view in long menus, focus restored on dismiss, and
  edge-aware positioning
- `examples/context_menu.rs` and `examples/markdown_selection.rs`

### Fixed

- Markdown inline links and inline code no longer end the paragraph they appear
  in. A link mid-sentence used to flush the run and push the rest of the
  sentence onto its own line

## [0.6.0] - 2026-08-14

### Breaking Changes

- `InputBindings` gained `submit` and `insert_newline` fields; `InputStateEvent` gained a `Submit` variant

### Added

- Input submit events: configure `InputState::submit_on(SubmitOn::Enter)` (enter sends, shift-enter for newlines) or `SubmitOn::CmdEnter` (cmd-enter / ctrl-enter sends). The configured keystroke emits `InputStateEvent::Submit`, leaving content in place for the subscriber to read and clear. Default is `None` — existing inputs are unchanged
- New input actions `Submit` (default `cmd-enter` / `ctrl-enter`) and `InsertNewline` (default `shift-enter`, always a newline regardless of submit mode)

### Fixed

- Input content text now defaults to the theme foreground color; it previously inherited the window text style, which bottoms out at gpui's default black — invisible on dark themes. An explicit `.text_color()` on the element still wins

## [0.4.0] - 2026-04-05

### Breaking Changes

- Switched from gpui git dependency to [gpui-unofficial](https://github.com/iamnbutler/gpui-unofficial) on crates.io
- gpuikit is now published on crates.io

### Changed

- GPUI dependencies now come from crates.io (`gpui-unofficial` v0.230.2) instead of the Zed git repo
- Updated install instructions — use `gpuikit = "0.4"` instead of a git dependency
