No information window shown using neovim

[jkunlin]

After using ":GrammarousCheck" command, it highlights the errors. But there is not information window when I move cursor on the locations.

Let me confirm one thing. After errors are highlighted, does moving cursor to the highlighted area open information window?

[jkunlin]

Sometimes It will and sometimes will not.

For example, if I select one line from head to tail in visual mode, and run ":GrammarousCheck", then moving cursor to the highlighted area doesn't open information window. But when I select this line from tail to head, and run the command again, the information window will be shown.

Got the same issue. While I now know that selecting from tail to head is a little workaround.

I noticed that this is current expected behavior. To see the first error, we need to jump the cursor to first error position.

However, I agree that showing information window automatically is also useful. I think adding a new variable to control the behavior is a good way to do that.

I implemented the feature in f02ce8e. Please try the latest with below config:

let g:grammarous#show_first_error = 1

Default value of the variable is 0 because of compatibility.

As @rhysd said,

I noticed that this is current expected behavior....

I got little confused by this behaviour. As a user who was new to vim-grammarous, I just did what README told me, and

let g:grammarous#move_to_first_error = 0
let g:grammarous#show_first_error = 1

Now, sometimes I got the information window, sometimes didn't. I've tried to sum up some rules. When the first time I opened a text file, the vim cursor has been located at the beginning, and if I just type :GrammarousCheck, information window will never show up. If I move the cursor down to at least the end of the first error before do :GrammarousCheck, the window shows.

And I'm using MacVIM,

Hi, has there been any progress on this issue? I am experiencing it myself using neovim v.05.

This issue still exists. The proposed fix doesn't help. The curser moves to the first error, but the information windows still doesn't show up.
