# Objective
- Currently, the file preview pane in pickers forces line numbers and
the editor gutter to always be visible, ignoring user-configured
preferences. This PR ensures the preview component respects the user's
global editor layout settings.
## Solution
- Modified `EditorPreview::new` within `crates/picker/src/preview.rs`.
- Imported `EditorSettings` from the `editor` crate.
- Replaced the hardcoded `true` values for `set_show_gutter` and
`set_show_line_numbers` with the user's active global configuration
retrieved via `EditorSettings::get_global(cx).gutter.line_numbers`.
## Testing
- Did you test these changes? If so, how?
- Yes, manually verified that toggling line numbers off or using
relative line numbers in `settings.json` is accurately reflected inside
the picker's file preview pane.
- Are there any parts that need more testing?
- No, using the global context lookup seamlessly integrates with Zed's
existing configuration lifecycle.
- How can other people (reviewers) test your changes? Is there anything
specific they need to know?
- Open your `settings.json` and change your line number preferences
(e.g., set `"line_numbers": false`).
- Bring up a picker that renders a file preview (like the project search
or file finder).
- Confirm that the preview pane's gutter and line number layout
perfectly matches your active configuration.
- If relevant, what platforms did you test these changes on, and are
there any important ones you can't test?
- Tested on Linux.
