status indicator gone? #41

is the mode indicator (copy, prefix held, etc) gone?

Hi @elig0n :wave: Unfortunately, this is a little too little information to help you 😐

The actual theme code wasn't updated for a long time so no changes could actively break it. Anyway, could you please check if this is related to #34 or #42. It looks like the tmux maintainers added some breaking changes in the 2.9.x version ranges instead of publishing v3.

I started with the tmux.conf in the igloo repository and added the prefix highlight like this. If I include the prefix highlight plugin before the nord theme, the prefix plugin does not show when pressing the prefix keys. However, if I reorder the plugins, it works for some reason. Hope this helps!

@nilsbore Thanks for testing and sharing your findings :+1: Looks like this is the same problem that apply to other custom plugin system like e.g. for Vim or ZSH. It's a bit strange that the order of plugins is still a pitfall. Maybe this hasn't been changed by the maintainers because it might be too much effort to refactor it or there are legacy reasons, but it would prevent a lot of usage issues when the loading mechanism could handle ordering internally.

Anyway, good to see that this solved your problem @elig0n. I've reopened the issue in order to add some information to the project documentation & FAQ to guide users that face the same issue.

I too had this same issue with tmux 3.0a version as at time of posting this comment. Re-ordering to put tmux-prefix-highlight after nord-tmux still works as a reasonable workaround for now.

Not entirely broken, not entirely great.
