Fullscreen indicator for compact-bar #2513

Open sashomasho opened 1 year ago

sashomasho commented 1 year ago

Hello, thank you for zellij, since I started using it my daily tasks workflow performance has increased significantly.

The start of my zellij journey was rough because I didn't like the default keybindings (until I found alt-centered configuration) and the other thing that bothered me was the default layout, too much wasted space, especially when you open nvim inside which adds several other statuslines and winbars.

Long story short, I switched to default_layout "compact" and have been really happy with it since then. One problem I have is that with this layout I don't see any indicator for fullscreen windows and I keep losing track of where I have hidden ones. Then I saw that there is a 'Sync' indicator next to the tab name when this mode is turned on, so I think the same should be used also for Fullsreen mode.

I really would like to reuse the tab (similar to tmux) to indicate hidden windows or any other unusual modes.

I've created a simple PR #2514 just to show how I imagine it, but any other idea is welcome.

Great. Can be similar to status bar . Full scream text em panes behind.
