Python segment not displayed in home folder

Description

In version 3.137.3 the Python segment is not showing in my home folder, even though display_mode is set to "always" in the respective part of the configuration. This seems to only affect the home folder, because when changing e.g. to an empty folder the segment shows up (see screenshot).

My configuration

```json { "$schema": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JanDeDobbeleer/oh-my-posh/main/themes/schema.json", "blocks": [ { "type": "prompt", "alignment": "left", "segments": [ { "type": "root", "style": "powerline", "powerline_symbol": "\uE0B0", "foreground": "#100e23", "background": "#ffe9aa" }, { "type": "session", "style": "powerline", "powerline_symbol": "\uE0B0", "foreground": "#100e23", "background": "#ffffff" }, { "type": "path", "style": "powerline", "powerline_symbol": "\uE0B0", "foreground": "#100e23", "background": "#91ddff", "properties": { "folder_icon": "\uF115", "folder_separator_icon": " \uE0B1 ", "style": "full" } }, { "type": "git", "style": "powerline", "powerline_symbol": "\uE0B0", "foreground": "#193549", "background": "#95ffa4" }, { "type": "python", "style": "powerline", "powerline_symbol": "\uE0B0", "foreground": "#100e23", "background": "#906cff", "properties": { "prefix": " \uE235 ", "display_virtual_env": true, "display_default": true, "display_version": true, "display_mode": "always" } }, { "type": "exit", "style": "powerline", "powerline_symbol": "\uE0B0", "foreground": "#ffffff", "background": "#ff8080", "properties": { "prefix": " \uE20F" } } ] }, { "type": "newline" }, { "type": "prompt", "alignment": "left", "segments": [ { "type": "text", "style": "plain", "foreground": "#007ACC", "properties": { "prefix": "", "text": "\u276F" } } ] } ], "final_space": false } ```

Environment

• Oh my Posh version: 3.137.3
• Theme: paradox
• Operating System: Windows 10 (Version 10.0.18363 Build 18363)
• Shell: Powershell 7.1.3
• Terminal: Windows Terminal 1.7.1033.0

Steps to Reproduce

1. Set display_mode: "always in the "python" segment of the configuration
2. Open Powershell in Windows Terminal

Expected behavior: Python segment showing in all folders when display_mode: "always

Actual behavior: Python segment not showing in home folder

That's actually by design as the home folder is generally excluded. Maybe it's indeed a better idea to also allow that for always enabled.

[sobayed]

Ah, thanks for the clarification. I was just not expecting this for display_mode: "always" so maybe updating the docs might also be an option.

@sobayed you have a valid point I didn't consider so allow me to adjust how that works.

Which posh themes actually have a python segment? How can I find this out?

[JanDeDobbeleer]

You can do a quick search here. Or create your own config as it's rather trivial to add it.
