Pane (active) border style changes are ignored

Is there an existing issue outlining your problem?

• [X] I have searched the existing issues and they do not solve my problem.

Describe your problem.

The (active) pane border style keeps its default appearance of gray and orange despite being overridden in the configuration.

Paste your configuration.

set -g @plugin 'catppuccin/tmux#latest'
set -g @catppuccin_pane_border_style "fg=#{thm_green}"
set -g @catppuccin_pane_active_border_style "fg=#{thm_blue}"
set -g @plugin 'tmux-plugins/tpm'

Attach screenshots.

What tmux version are you seeing the issue on?

tmux 3.2a

Any additional comments?

After digging, I believe the root cause is catppuccin.tmux is missing the following lines:

add_tmux_batch_option "@catppuccin_pane_border_style"
add_tmux_batch_option "@catppuccin_pane_active_border_style"

The get_interpolated_tmux_batch_option function does not see the two options in tmux_batch_options and returns the default value no matter what.

Thank you for the issue.

I have 1 question are u using set -g @plugin 'catppuccin/tmux#latest' or set -g @plugin 'catppuccin/tmux'? set -g @plugin 'catppuccin/tmux#latest' normally shouldn't have the batching yet. Changes nothing about the issue just something for future issues and releases I might need to check.

Thank you for the quick turnaround!

I was using set -g @plugin 'catppuccin/tmux#latest', but I now realize that I used to use set -g @plugin 'catppuccin/tmux' and just recently switched over, but I did not manually remove the repo and reinstall it with tpm, so I think I've been at HEAD all along.

I just manually removed the repo and reinstalled catppuccin/tmux#latest, and I can confirm that the issue does not arise at the latest release.

Thank you, just something to document that changing releases/tags/branches requires you to manually uninstall the plugin and update.
