+## [2.1.4] - 2026-07-20
+
+### Added
+- **Data broker launcher**: EasyFind now publishes a launcher for display bars that host data broker objects, so it can be opened from one instead of the minimap button. Left-click toggles the search bar, right-click opens the options. Nothing changes if no such display is installed.
+

 ## [2.1.3] - 2026-07-19
 
 ### Fixed
