Popup not appearing, F8 executes a space command

[wasspds]

As in the title:

• I have checked that both awk and python are available on terminal,
• I have installed the nui plugin as instructed.
• I have syntax on enabled in my config
  Help please, as I have high hopes for this to work :)

• Put syntax on in top of your neovim configuration file. (before hydrovim installation)

[wasspds]

Sorry, that was done as well - I missed to include this part.

@smzm This is not closed :) - what I meant was I had this option enabled in my config, and it still doesn't work - I missed to include that in my original description - I updated it

[smzm]

Ok. :)
This is happening because of lacking syntax on, and sincerely I don't know why!
In init.vim of your nvim configuration directory, you should put syntax on on top of your file.
Also make sure your file has .py extension name to recognize it as python file.

Ok - so:

• I have my neovim config in lua \

local opt = vim.opt
opt.syntax = "ON"

^^ This is the first two lines of my settings file :)
* echo(syntax_on) returns a 1 after opening nvim

• This is the output of :set filetype? command run after opening any python file - so that seems correct 💪 (unless it isn't ;) )

• I tried to play around with nui.nvim first to see if I had any popups come up at all - they seem to work fine 👍

• I also tried to manually call the HydrovimRun() function:
  :call HydrovimRun('normal') - there is no error on the output, it just produces as space and nothing else happens

• I even tried to manually set syntax on with the .py file open and see if that makes any difference - it didn't 👎 😄

• I also tried to reinstall the packages (both hydrovim and nui) just in case I had the order of operations wrong (actually only hydrovim, as I have placed the nui plugin as a dependency)

I am trying to figure out what else I could try and test 🤷

@wasspds Did you ever figure it out? I am seeing exactly the same issue.

@wasspds Did you ever figure it out? I am seeing exactly the same issue.

This problem exists on Neovim configured with Lua. If you want to test plugin, you can use Neovim configured with .vimrc or use vim.
