GPUI Kit v0.8.1

GPUI Kit 0.8.1 improves text selection, Markdown rendering, editor layout, scrolling, focus and accessibility. It also adds compatible customization APIs for text rendering, editor scrollbars and Diff parsing and highlighting.

To preserve Kit-owned API compatibility with v0.8.0, this patch defers the MotionTokens field additions from #3616 and the Textarea associated-type change from #2842. Behavior fixes remain included. The default backend is pinned to gpui-pre 0.3.10, and the optional GPUI Fast backend uses 0.1.12. These upstream snapshots change several GPUI APIs re-exported by Kit; see the migration notes below.

Editor and text input

  • Tab stops: code-editor tabs align to the configured tab stops during measurement, wrapping and painting. Horizontal scroll extents follow laid-out text widths. (#3622, #3604)
  • Custom scrollbars: set_scrollbar_renderer lets an application supply its editor scrollbar presentation using EditorScrollbarContext. (#3644)
  • Focused inputs ask surrounding scroll containers to reveal them, taps request the software keyboard, and accessibility semantics follow the actual editor focus. (#3625, #3623, #3585)

Markdown and text rendering

  • Selection: publish selection snapshots once per frame to avoid invalidating unrelated retained views. Double- and triple-click drags and subsequent Shift-clicks extend selections by words, lines or paragraphs, including paragraphs with hard breaks. Drags starting inside a table cell stay in that cell. (#3686, #3681, #3646)
  • Text styles: inline_code_style, list_style and blockquote_style refine the corresponding text presentation while inheriting unspecified properties from the resolved style. (#3663, #3687)
  • Image sources: Component TextView exposes image_source to resolve document images consistently for measurement and rendering. (#3694)
  • Preserve sparse Markdown table rows and release shaped text retained by dropped TextViews on the next frame. (#3673, #3628)

Diff

  • Truncated patches: DiffFile::parse_with and DiffParseOptions::truncated_hunks accept incomplete hunks without relaxing the default parser. DiffFile::is_truncated identifies affected files; unified file boundaries and empty-hunk ordering remain validated. (#3688)
  • Syntax highlighting: with_syntax_highlighter, set_syntax_highlighter and clear_syntax_highlighter let an application provide its own highlighting without resetting selection or scrolling. (#3618)

Scrolling and layout

  • Scrollable regions can scroll content beyond their maximum size. Bounce handling avoids rounding-induced overscroll and false overscroll at large offsets, and release inertia applies only to stretched edges. (#3613, #3632, #3661, #3631)
  • last_horizontal_scroll_claim exposes the last horizontal scroll step consumed by a mask. Resizable dividers read the active drag state when events arrive. (#3621, #3629)
  • on_prepaint reports bounds from the element's corner, aligning geometry callbacks with their intended coordinate origin. (#3689)

Components

  • Dialog: Dialog::centered and AlertDialog::centered center the surface vertically; exit animation matches entrance animation. Sheets and notifications avoid system bars and the software keyboard. (#3635, #3603, #3624)
  • Button: track_focus accepts an application-owned handle. Disabling a focused button preserves the focus binding so Tab can still leave it in either direction. (#3684, #3606)
  • DataTable: honor centered and right-aligned columns; expose table structure and cell labels to assistive technology through TableDelegate::cell_label. (#3617, #3667)
  • Toolbar: grow with taller content and preserve focus when blank toolbar space is clicked. (#3651, #3652)
  • HoverCard: trigger_style applies layout styling to the trigger container. (#3653)
  • ColorPicker: preserve the first hex edit after a programmatic value update and round color channels instead of truncating them. (#3641, #3640)
  • TimeField: pressing outside a segment focuses the first segment. Command applies empty-list padding only while its empty state is visible. (#3655, #3654)
  • Focus trap: stop Tab traversal at the first repeated stop. Dock restores legacy empty StackPanel layouts as empty splits. (#3642, #3610)

Shell and localization

The release also prepares gpui-shell for crates.io publication with matching quickjs-jit, quickjs-jit-runtime and quickjs-jit-stdlib 0.14.1 registry dependencies.

  • Shell Button: accessibility_label supplies an accessible name independently of the visible label. (#3665)
  • Add Brazilian Portuguese translations and preserve valid Portuguese words in spell checking. (#3638, #3664)

Upstream GPUI compatibility

The updated GPUI snapshots change public APIs re-exported at the Kit root. Internal compilation checks and Kit API checks do not preserve these upstream signatures:

  • Modifiers::secondary() and Modifiers::secondary_key() now require &App.
  • Keystroke::parse and KeyBinding::new require static strings. Dynamic strings and secondary modifiers use OS-aware parsing/loading.
  • Keystroke::unparse and KeybindingKeystroke::unparse require an OperatingSystem argument.
  • PlatformInput::ScrollWheel becomes PlatformInput::Scroll; scroll event literals gain a source field.

Use cx.platform_info().os for OS-aware parsing/formatting and pass cx to modifier helpers. Use KeyBinding::load(..., cx) for dynamic keybindings or choose explicit cmd/ctrl literals with KeyBinding::new.

Thank you to everyone who contributed code, documentation, testing, and feedback!
