That means that if you have a pattern with the captures `@second.capture @first.capture`, Zed will first try resolving a highlight from your theme for the code fragment using the first capture, then look for the second capture if no match for the first capture could be found. --------- Co-authored-by: Kirill Bulatov <kirill@zed.dev>
