Return index in -show window mode in result

[kohnish]

A dmenu command likes this works as expected and I can get the index.

selected_index=$(echo "${titles[@]}" | rofi -dmenu -cycle -cache-dir ~/.local/share/rofi/cache -format i -theme material -width 30 -p "Windows:")

But this also show entries with icons by default for some reasons. $titles are just strings obtained via xtitle. But selected_index is empty. It'd be great if -show window returned the selected index.

selected_index=$(echo "${titles[@]}" | rofi -cycle -show window -cache-dir ~/.local/share/rofi/cache -format i -theme material -width 30 -p "Windows:")

Not an issue, intended behavior.. window mode is not dmenu.

It does not read options from input, it gets the options from the Xserver/wayland and same for its actions.

But this also show entries with icons by default for some reasons.

yes, this is it intended function.
