highlight_on_key = true has no effect on default AstroNvim config

[davis-jordan]

Hi, I have recently based my nvim config off of this project: https://github.com/AstroNvim/AstroNvim

With a fresh pull of AstroNvim, the highlight_on_key option has no effect. By this, I mean that even though I have set Eyeliner only to show the highlights when pressing f,F,t,T, the highlights are showing up all the time.

Here is the user-defined plugins block of AstroNvim that I have:

Despite this, every file that I open has highlights on every line by default, like this: (f was not pressed here)

I have also tried adding this autocmd in the Eyeliner Documentation:

vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('ColorScheme', {
  pattern = '*',
  callback = function()
    vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, 'EyelinerPrimary', { bold = true, underline = true })
  end,
})

Any ideas on how to rectify this would be very appreciated!

Hi @davis-jordan , were you able to solve the issue? What was the solution?

Would like to know how this was solved as well. I'm experiencing the same issue right now after switching to lazy.nvim as my plugin manager, from packer.nvim.
