# looqs: Release notes
## 2022-09-10 - v0.7
CHANGES:
- GUI: Add vertical scroll option, default to it. Most feedback considered horizontal scrolling unnatural.
- GUI: Previews: Improve plaintext preview snippet selection by prioritizing those which contain the most search terms
- GUI: Previews: Only highlight whole words, not parts in words.
- GUI: Previews: Don't treat text wrapped inside '<' '>' in plaintext files as HTMl tags which caused such text to get lost in previews.
- GUI: Avoid triggering preview generation in some cases even when previews tab is not the active one
- GUI: Implement a search history. Allow going up/down with arrow keys in the search field.
- GUI: Previews: Allow CTRL + mouse wheel to zoom in on previews
- General: Fix an incorrect sqlite query which caused the ranking information of search results to be lost. "All files" filter in the previews tab therefore now orders by the seemingly most relevant pages, across all documents.
- General: Fix handling of content search queries with prefix terms (those ending in '*').
- GUI: Show how many results are previewable.
- GUI: Refactor to improve stability of sandboxed IPC worker in order to avoid rare segfaults.

**CTRL + W**: Removes the last filter. If we take above's example "p:(docs) c:(invoice credit card)" again, then CTRL + W kills "c:(invoice credit card)".
The arrow keys (up and down) can be used to go back and forward in the search history.
### Configuring PDF viewer
It's most convenient if, when you click on a preview, the PDF reader opens the page you clicked. For that, looqs needs to know which viewer you want to launch.
It tries to auto detect some common viewers. You must set the value in the "Settings" tab yourself if the
default does not work for you. In the command line options, "%f" represents the filepath, "%p" the page number.
### Preview tab
The preview tab shows previews. It marks your search keywords too. Click on a preview to open the file.
### Previews tab
The 'previews' tab shows previews. It marks your search keywords too. Click on a preview to open the file.
A right click on a preview allows you to copy the file path, or to open the containing folder.
When the combobox is set to "All previews", the previews are ordered by relevance from all documents/pages.
By default, a vertical scrolling is active. In the settings, it can be changed to horizontal scroll, which may be
preferred by users of (larger) wide screen monitors.
### Syncing index
Over time, files get deleted or their content changes. Go to **looqs** -> **Sync index**. looqs will reindex the content of files which have been changed. Files that cannot be found anymore will be removed from the index.
