## What Changed
- compute range-format support from formatter configuration and
language-server capabilities
- show `Format Selections` only when at least one selected buffer has a
range-capable formatter
- keep Prettier-supported range formatting available without depending
on LSP support
- hide the action for formatter modes that cannot honor selections, such
as external-command and code-action formatters
- keep the action handler safe by rechecking support and returning early
when range formatting is unavailable
- restrict capability checks to the servers actually registered for the
current buffer
- add regression coverage for supported, unsupported, and mixed-server
cases
- document when `Format Selections` is available in both action docs and
user docs

Closes#25796
Release Notes:
- Improved `Format Selections` so it is only shown when the active
formatter supports range formatting.
Testing I did:
Here are the formatters I used:

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/cae4a238-277e-4188-873f-189e9f098699"
/>
Note: I've chosen three formatters:
1. Prettier, which supports range formatting
2. clangd (LSP) which also supports range formatting
3. gopls which do not support range formatting

When `editor: format selections` get invoked, the Prettier and external
formatter branches in `format_buffer_locally` ignored the selection
ranges entirely, causing the whole document to be formatted.
- Thread selection ranges as UTF-16 offsets through to Prettier via
`rangeStart/rangeEnd` options in the format request.
- Skip external formatters when ranges are present, since they have no
mechanism for range formatting.
- Create diff edits and apply them for JSON-like languages. For
single-expression languages like JSON, it wasn't respecting the range
commands from Prettier. So, filter the diff edits returned by Prettier
to retain only those overlapping with the user's selection byte ranges,
ensuring changes outside the selection are never applied.

This PR removes Preview callouts from documentation for features that
are now in Stable.
## Files Updated
• docs/src/collaboration/overview.md
• docs/src/debugger.md
• docs/src/configuring-languages.md
• docs/src/troubleshooting.md
• docs/src/outline-panel.md
• docs/src/getting-started.md

• docs/src/ai/edit-prediction.md
• docs/src/ai/llm-providers.md
## What This Does
Removes callouts like:
```markdown
> **Preview:** This feature is available in Zed Preview. It will be included in the next Stable release.
```
And:
```markdown
> **Changed in Preview (v0.XXX).** See [release notes](/releases#0.XXX).
```
These features are now in Stable, so the callouts are no longer needed.
Release Notes:
- N/A
Hi! The `...` entry in the `language_servers` setting was only explained
in a single bullet point, which led users to misconfigure their setup,
particularly when overriding defaults that disable certain servers with
`!`.
Add a detailed explanation of how `...` works and a table of examples
using Ruby's real server configuration to illustrate the override
behavior.

## Summary
Reviewed and updated all 18 files in `docs/src/ai/` to meet Zed's brand
voice standards. Each file was scored against the 8-criterion rubric and
rewritten where needed to achieve 4+ on all criteria.
**Changes include:**
- Remove "Learn how to/about" patterns (8 instances)
- Replace vague phrases ("various types of tasks", "and more") with
specific examples
- Remove taboo words ("seamless", "naturally extends")
- Remove emotional language ("We're excited/thrilled/happy")
- Remove marketing patterns ("Stay tuned!", exclamation points)
- Remove unverifiable claims ("world's fastest")
- Replace hedging with direct statements
- Remove promotional emphasis (`_free_`, `**_for free_**`)
- Fix typo in external-agents.md ("servers" → "serves")
- Fix broken link syntax for Ollama Turbo
## Test plan
- [x] `mdbook build` succeeds
- [x] Grep for remaining taboo phrases (only one "seamless" in MCP
official quote, preserved intentionally)
- [x] All facts preserved (URLs, keybindings, settings keys, prices,
model names)

This PR adds the ability to collapse section in the docs sidebar (which
are persistent until you close the tab), and some design facelift to the
docs, which makes its design close to the site as well as polishing up
many elements and interactions (like moving the search to a modal and
making the table of content visible in smaller breakpoints).

Deals with https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/5259
Highlights brackets with different colors based on their depth.
Uses existing tree-sitter queries from brackets.scm to find brackets,
uses theme's accents to color them.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/cc5f3aba-22fa-446d-9af7-ba6e772029da
1. Adds `colorize_brackets` language setting that allows, per language
or globally for all languages, to configure whether Zed should color the
brackets for a particular language.
Disabled for all languages by default.
2. Any given language can opt-out a certain bracket pair by amending the
brackets.scm like `("\"" @open "\"" @close) ` -> `(("\"" @open "\""
@close) (#set! rainbow.exclude))`
3. Brackets are using colors from theme accents, which can be overridden
as
```jsonc
"theme_overrides": {
"One Dark": {
"accents": ["#ff69b4", "#7fff00", "#ff1493", "#00ffff", "#ff8c00", "#9400d3"]
}
},
```
Release Notes:
- Added bracket colorization (rainbow brackets) support. Use
`colorize_brackets` language setting to enable.

As-salamu alaykum,
[I recently started suffering from the same issue as this
user](https://users.rust-lang.org/t/rust-analyzer-checkonsave-command-works-but-shows-invalid-config-warning/128652),
which is caused by something the docs of Zed promote, so I decided to
help fix it.
>[anutrix](https://users.rust-lang.org/u/anutrix)
> When I add "rust-analyzer.checkOnSave.command": "clippy" I get:
>
> invalid config value: /checkOnSave: invalid type: map, expected a
boolean;
> Extension Info: Version 0.3.2433, Server Version 0.3.2433-standalone
(66e3b5819e 2025-04-21)
> and in Language Server logs:
>
> [Error - 3:26:22 AM] Server process exited with code 0.
> Clippy works fine but these warnings stays and extensions shows
yellow/unstable in VSCode:
>
> Additionally, if I replace
>
> "rust-analyzer.checkOnSave.command": "clippy"
> with
>
> "rust-analyzer.checkOnSave": true,
> "rust-analyzer.checkOnSave.command": "clippy"
> [jplatte](https://users.rust-lang.org/u/jplatte)
> From the documentation, it seems like
rust-analyzer.checkOnSave.command does not exist. It should be
rust-analyzer.check.command.
This PR updates an outdated keybind for opening the extensions page (the
shown keybind opens the project panel instead) on the `Configuring
Languages` page.
It also updates a nearby keybind to use the preprocessor syntax instead.
Release Notes:
- N/A
Release Notes:
- Added `show_completions_on_input` and `show_completion_documentation`
per-language settings. These settings were available before, but were
not configurable per-language.
Fixed [Configuring
Languages](https://zed.dev/docs/configuring-languages) docs using
boolean value for `format_on_save` option although it accepts string
values of `"on"` or `"off"`
Details:
The documentation on [configuring
languages](https://zed.dev/docs/configuring-languages) states the use of
boolean values for the `format_on_save` option although the
[configuration
reference](https://zed.dev/docs/configuring-zed#format-on-save) only
allows the usage of string values `"on"` or `"off"`. In fact using
boolean values will not work and won't translate to `on` or `off`
Release Notes:
- N/A
Zed does not support this, the documentation was added in error. And if it were supported, the key would be `experimental.theme_overrides` not `theme_overrides`.
