Painpoints with Zed right now

This is my issue tracker for the personal painpoints I have on Zed. And I want to know if they're already done.

Markdown Preview

  • Image width overflowing width (It works now)
    • Issue: ??
    • PR: ??
  • Using <img />
  • Using Gifs
  • Animated gifs
  • Weird codeblock spacing when using > inside it.
  • Extension for auto table headings?? Is this maybe possible to make?
  • Preview for Callouts in GH-flavored MD.
  • Cursor should stay in-place when previewing.

Editor

  • πŸ™ Color Highlight
  • Anchor tags Highlight - zed-industries/zed#11895
  • πŸ™ Fuzzy Search Cmd + P order of tokens.
  • When I multi-cursor highlight two quotes (like end to end): " ' or a backtick. When I press a different type of quote, it shouldn't WRAP that quote with the new quote. e.g. ('"' hello world '"') - it becomes like this. (Maybe not that important)
    • Alternative vim motion cs" (but doesnt work perfect)
    • Or just F " r ` f " r ` - can attach a keymap or just do it manually.
      {
         "context": "vim_mode == normal && !menu",
         "bindings": {
           // Replace quotes with `
           "space r `": ["workspace::SendKeystrokes", "F \" r ` f \" r `"],
           // Replace ` with quotes
           "space r \"": ["workspace::SendKeystrokes", "F ` r \" f ` r \""],
           // "space \"": [
           //   "workspace::SendKeystrokes",
           //   "v a q Escape r \" v a q o Escape r \""
           // ]
           "space o a": "assistant::InlineAssist"
         }
      }
  • Copy-Pasting File on File-Tree from one Zed window to another Zed window.
  • Copy-Pasting Images from Browser to a Zed Window.
  • VSCode-compatible Snippets (scope so no need to repeat). (I made a workaround: https://vscode-to-zed-snippets.pages.dev/)
  • Jank Pasting in Vim-Mode + Svelte
  • Svelte Icon in Catppucin
  • Svelte import labels not shown autoimport

Git

There's a lot of limitations right now, but I just use lazygit I prefer it over anything else.

  • Viewing currently staged, added, etc.
  • Viewing files from old branches, commits, etc.
  • Git Graph-like old commits viewer/search.

πŸ™ - means I really want this feature PLEASE
