[Bug] Error when trying hop with a floating window open

[akinsho]

Hi 👋🏿 ,

Firstly, thanks for your work phaazon, it's much appreciated 💯.

On to the issue, since moving over to hop v2. I've been getting errors when trying to trigger HopChar1MW i.e. a hop job with multiwindow set to true. I've narrowed down this issue to an interaction with nvim-treesitter-context but I think it's probably applicable to any other floating windows, e.g. I believe I've seen this also whilst using nvim-lightbulb.

The error is:

E5108: Error executing lua ...re/nvim/site/pack/packer/opt/hop.nvim/lua/hop/window.lua
:7: Failed to switch to window 1004

A minimal init.lua is

vim.cmd("packadd hop.nvim")
vim.cmd("packadd nvim-treesitter-context")

require("hop").setup()
require("treesitter-context").setup()

Then start nvim with v -u ~/minimal.lua --noplugin <path to a large file>

With context enabled, scroll down until the context window appears. With the window in view, press :HopChar1MW and press a character. This will trigger the error.

That’s an interesting use-case. I’m trying to reproduce and will see how to fix the bug.

[hadronized]

Okay it was easy to reproduce, thanks a lot! I will prioritize that one, it’s pretty bad.

That first commit fixes a situation that is not exactly the one you described. Can you switch your Hop setup to use branch = fix-multi-window-floats, update, and tell me whether you still reproduce? I’m continuing looking for your situation but I don’t exactly reproduce it.

Hi, thanks for picking this up. I just tried the latest branch, and it still happens, unfortunately. Scrolled down till there was a context window

Which version of nvim @akinsho are you using? nvim --version should be enough.
