This fixes bugs introduced in the v19.10.0 release.

  • Fix icon names appearing at the end in non-rolling distros (Issue #25). The Rofi version is checked on startup for compatibility. If Rofi v1.5.3+ is detected, icons are enabled. If the next Rofi release (v1.5.5 or v1.6.0) is detected, then shortcuts will be displayed too. Edit ~/.config/plasmahudrc to disable either feature.
  • Call Gtk.init() to prevent segfault in OpenSUSE (Issue #20). Thanks @trmdi for tracking down the solution.

  • Added the ability to change font size and number of lines shown. See https://github.com/Zren/plasma-hud#settings for a full list of settings you can configure in ~/.config/plasmahudrc.
  • Launch rofi as right after keypress and we see it supports global menus, but before we start fetching the menu. This lets rofi capture any keypresses while the menu is populating. We pipe the menu items into rofi as they are discovered. We no longer sort the menu items before sending them to rofi, instead letting rofi sort them if configured to in ~/.config/plasmahudrc.
  • Support displaying the menu item icons. You can change the icon theme in plasmahudrc with [Icons] Theme=breeze-dark. You can disable icons with [Icons] Enabled=false.
  • Remove the GTK Menu parsing code to simplify the code. We now only parse menu items from KDE's GDbusMenuProxy which also provides the menu to Plasma's Global Menu widget.
  • Fetch as many menu items from KDE's GDbusMenuProxy as possible. It would previously fetch a single submenu at a time. Large menus like Firefox (with lots of bookmarks) were very slow (Issue #9) (Pull Request #16 by @ren2r).
  • You can now set the text before the search box (HUD) with [Style] Title=🞜 (Pull Request #21 by @AndydeCleyre). You can use any unicode/emoji, like a geometric shape (https://unicode.org/charts/nameslist/n_1F780.html).
  • You can now set the shortcut color with [Colors] ShortcutForeground should you enable shortcuts. I would not recommend enabling shortcuts however until a rofi ignores pango formatting (See Issue #4 for details).
