Notification text wrapping

[asmodeus812]

Is there a way to make the notification text wrap since long text at the moment just runs off to the right and is cut off and not visible mostly. It would be great to allow for wrap.

You can set wrap using the on_open config option but wrapping doesn't work well with styles that move the window so you'd have to use static or fade for your stages option (assuming you don't want a buggy appearance)

@rcarriga thanks for the feedback, while setting wrap does work, what does not is autoexpanding the notification popup, after wrapping, i.e the notification window is always 2 or 3 lines high, and wrapping causes some of the text to be hidden, that is why i issued this question, maybe it is something that needs to be handled internally, no idea how to do that in on open however.

Ah so to handle that you'll have to use custom stages. The stages currently use the message height/width to set the window height/width but to handle wrapping you would have to calculate the window width with wrapping taken into account.

I've added the buffer to the arguments passed to the initial stage so you can check the raw text in the buffer and calculate the height.

You can set wrap using the on_open config option

Can you show an example how to do this please?

[rcarriga]

Setting wrap with on_open can be done like this

require("notify").setup({
  on_open = function(win)
     vim.api.nvim_win_set_option(win, "wrap", true)
  end,
})

The stages are documented here https://github.com/rcarriga/nvim-notify#animation-style An example of using custom ones: https://github.com/rcarriga/nvim-notify/issues/94#issuecomment-1146777125
