Closed RudolfMan closed 3 months ago
This is a consequence of #9122. We should add an else
clause here: https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/blob/88d455afebb581bc607d12f04448fe6d8a21baa2/helix-term/src/ui/statusline.rs#L124
that fits as much of the left statusline as will fit, or tries to truncate the longest span(s)
I regret merging #9122 so close to the release, there was quite a few regressions. Should we have a patch release for this?
At this point I'm considering reverting the refactor. There are more unforeseen consequences of it than potential benefits.
I've begun working on the autohide feature but the inner view dimensions seem to be quite hard-coded for clipping a space for the statusline, and making that that dynamic might not be worth pursuing for the time being.
@the-mikedavis Should I revert the changes?
I think the changes are still good - with the old render functions we couldn't middle-align the center statusline part like in #9950 or do the truncation I mentioned above.
This is pretty easy to hit but not all that limiting: you can still get the current document path from the %
register or view it in the buffer picker. I would prefer that we do a short release cycle this time (1-2 months) rather than backport a fix for this into a patch release
Started working on a draft PR to address this: #10087.
It needs more work/discussion, though.
I apologize for the mess.
Summary
When current buffer's filename is long and doesn't fit the statusline - everything from there disappears.
Reproduction Steps
I tried this: 1. `hx` 2. Open a file with a name (including path to the file) that's longer than the width of the view/split. For example when split vertically, or resize the terminal window. I tried `:redraw` doesn't help.
