Zed does not show the minimize and close buttons
Summary
Zed does not show the minimize and close buttons.
Description
Zed does not show the minimize and close buttons:
Steps to reproduce:
- Open the app
Expected Behavior: Zed must show the basic window management buttons (minimize, close, etc). Actual Behavior: No button is shown
My settings.json is very basic:
"features": {
"edit_prediction_provider": "zed"
},
"icon_theme": "Catppuccin Mocha",
"telemetry": {
"metrics": false,
"diagnostics": false
},
"ui_font_size": 16,
"buffer_font_size": 16,
"theme": {
"mode": "system",
"light": "One Light",
"dark": "Catppuccin Mocha"
}
Any help is appreciated!
Zed Version and System Specs
Zed: v0.188.5 (Zed) OS: Linux Wayland fedora 42 Memory: 14.4 GiB Architecture: x86_64 GPU: AMD Radeon Graphics (RADV REMBRANDT) || radv || Mesa 25.0.6
That looks odd. Also looks like the content scale is completely wrong (screenshot only shows what looks like the top right corner of the window contents). What is your monitor setup like, including display scale?
Hello!
Regarding the screenshot, I only captured the top-right corner. My screenshot tool (Gradia) automatically generated all the gradient effects. Sorry about that.
My screen configuration is the following:
Logical monitors:
1) (x, y) = (0, 0)
scale = 1.25
transform = 0
primary = true
monitors:
1) - connector = eDP-1
- monitor mode ID = [email protected]
- underscanning = false
Properties:
layout-mode = 1
Physical displays:
1) - connector = eDP-1
- vendor = LEN
- product = 0x403a
- serial = 0x00000000
Config hash: 449295198
As a guess, there's https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/31836 which might help?
I tried to change the scaling factor, and the error is still happening.
I worked around the issue with the following line in my .zshrc file:
# Zed editor workaround
export ZED_WINDOW_DECORATIONS server
