Zed @programming.dev Doods @infosec.pub Hiding the title bar, I did it.
I hardcoded size and position values in Sway to hide it outside the screen.
Here they are for 1366x768:
undefined
for_window [app_id="dev.zed.Zed"] floating enable, \ resize set width 1387 px, \ resize set height 830 px, \ move position -15 -75 bindsym $mod+2 workspace number 2, \ for_window [app_id="dev.zed.Zed"] floating enable, \ resize set width 1387 px, \ resize set height 810 px, \ move position -8 -60
This won't work unless I keep Zed in workspace 2 though.
If I don't re-run the command when switching workspaces Zed changes position and breaks my hack. There should be a better solution to the workspace problem.
Edit: I know I input different values in both cases, but it doesn't work otherwise.

Zed @programming.dev naeap @sopuli.xyz Multi Window/Monitor?
Hi all!
I'm sorry if this is a stupid question, but I'm somehow stuck to open a file of a project in a separate window (to put it on another monitor)
I'm fed up with CLion and VSCode is too far from my vim past. So zed seemed like a nice choice, where I don't need to put so much work into getting a working dev env, as I would with (neo)vim - and also caring about extension compatibility with updates is a thing here...
So zed really seemed nice, but after getting my toes wet on my laptop, I switched to my workstation with 3 monitors and I can't find a way to have my project files open on my monitors/in different windows.
Am I just stupid or what am I doing wrong?
Googling told me, that other people have the same problem, but I can't really accept that a modern code editor isn't able to show a file in a different window.
Is this still true?
That sadly would be a show killer, as I can't even open up the same project in a separate zed instance - it just switches to the existi -
Zed @programming.dev mke @programming.dev sgoel.dev Trying out Zed after more than a decade of Vim/NeovimAfter 15 years with Neovim, I'm trying out Zed as my daily driver text editor. In this post, I share why I'm switching and what my initial impressions are.
A short user story. Nothing new, but probably relatable to some.

Zed @programming.dev amarok @discuss.tchncs.de silent error in keymap.json, key map not working
I noticed a strange silent error: when having a typo in keymap.json file, for example "ctlr-space" instead of "ctrl-space", the whole keymap is ignored and default key bindings are active instead. Why isn't there any error message? So pay attention to your keymap.json modifications!

Zed @programming.dev amarok @discuss.tchncs.de help with keybinding - open function description
Hi, could someone please help me with this: what is the keybinding to open those pop-up windows which show the function description? See my screenshot. In other editors it's sometimes called "code lense".
I've looked everywhere and I simply cannot find it (if I only knew how the action is called in the settings file...). I'm using a tiling window manager, so I don't want to use the mouse every time. Thanks.
