Breaks telescope

[Ascyii]

I have a minimal config with lazy.nvim as the package manger that just loads undotree and telescope without any further configurations. Now when I toggle undotree followed by telescope the telescope menu breaks. Breaking here means that the cursor is in the telescope preview and the floating window cannot be focussed or closed anymore. Please help me to fix this problem as it makes undotree unusable for me.

try adding TelescopePrompt to undotree_DisabledFiletypes

The fix

I put this in my undotree.lua in my .config/nvim

vim.g.undotree_DisabledFiletypes = { 'TelescopePrompt' }

@AshishBhattarai Thank you so much. this helps a lot. This should be the default it fixes it and it's acting exactly how it should be. even when I'm inside the undo tree buffer it works too

[OLD] Adding more detail to the problem. still a bug

yes I have the same issue too

when undotree is open if you try to bring a telescope window it does this.

but if you toggle undo tree back

then hit the window

it works

so it's a problem with the undotree, I'm just toggling undo tree on and off a lot lately. another alternative I found is telescope undotree extentsion

the extension surprisinly works fine with undo tree

but I can't exist the telescope window well... here.... I did :q and I got this because I couldn't hit escape or my C-q to remove telescope window

if I hit :q to exit undotree window

the telescope window is stuck on the screen.

to fix it I have to toggle the telescope window again then hit escape

There is a problem with undotree

@mbbill https://github.com/mbbill/undotree/pull/204 this should make things a bit better with neovim

Hello @mbbill in addition to telescope I noticed the same issue with toggleterm.

currently I have

vim.g.undotree_DisabledFiletypes = { 'TelescopePrompt', 'toggleterm' }

toggleterm pop up when exiiting it steals focus from undo tree.

[Notice] without that , toggleterm }` section it will always steal focus and give that 0 master thing and move your cursor to undotree.

@gitdexgit try updating undotree, it should ignore terminal buffers by default now.
