* fix(ui): clamp the font metrics to the config's own range, and stop buckets mislabeling a hand-set value (#550) The settings steppers and the Ctrl+=/Ctrl+- keys clamped font size to 6-48 and line height to 1.0-2.0, while `sanitize` allows 4-256 and 0.5-4.0. A value inside the config range but outside the GUI's got pushed the wrong way by a single step — `font_size: 50` shrank to 48 on "+" — and `set_font_size` writes the result back to the file, so one misclick permanently changed a value it only meant to nudge. The bounds move into tty7-core beside `sanitize` (the `ui_font_size` precedent), one shared range for validation, the steppers, and the keyboard path. The scrollback and notify-threshold preset rows had the matching display bug: the highlight matched a *range*, so a hand-set 5000 lit up "10,000" and 20s lit up "30s", and clicking that cell silently overwrote the real value with the bucket's. The segmented control now highlights a bucket only on an exact match and otherwise shows a "Custom (N)" cell that names the live value and is not a button. * fix(ui): name a custom preset the way the cells beside it are written Review follow-up on #550. The "Custom (N)" cell rendered the raw integer, so a documented `scrollback_limit: 50000` read "Custom (50000)" between cells reading "10,000" and "100,000" — the one number on the row not written like a count. It is grouped now, and the presets and their labels are one pair of lists each, checked against each other, so a cell cannot come to show one number and write another. The bucket match moves out of the render bodies into `preset_choice`, which is what makes the exact-match rule the issue asked for testable: the presets the default lands on, the 50,000 the example config in `docs/reference/configuration.mdx` carries, and 20s on the notify row. The core test claimed to pin "the GUI steps within the range sanitize allows", but only asserted that sanitize agrees with the constants it is written in terms of — true by construction, and its line-height case took the reset path rather than the clamp, so it passed without touching LINE_HEIGHT_MIN at all. It now pins the published numbers themselves, the clamp in both directions, and the two values the issue was reported with. --------- Co-authored-by: l0ng-ai <24760907+l0ng-ai@users.noreply.github.com>
tty7
A terminal workbench: persistent sessions, remote work, agents.
Pure Rust · GPU rendering on Zed's gpui · VT core from Alacritty
English · 简体中文
Why
- Performance — ~2× the throughput of Alacritty, Ghostty, or Kitty (benchmarks)
- Persistent sessions — quit or reboot; your shells and supported agent sessions keep running, no tmux
- Editor-grade input — suggestions, completion, highlighting, history search
- Remote development — files, repos, panes, and git data stay on the remote machine
- Native SSH — profiles, SFTP, port forwarding, and jump hosts
- Agent-aware — Claude Code, Codex & co.: status, notifications, git context
- CLI + Skills — agents create panes, run commands, and inspect output
