Hello @nkkko , I have seen some more issues with the filter ('/') command while fixing #592 ..
I find filter input text gets printed twice if there is a match and the duplicated input doesnt goes away even on pressing 'Esc' (this happens everytime in full screen terminal mode). The one you mentioned where '//////...' gets printed in the footer is very rare occurence.

Overall, I have found the fix and will push a MR if its ok to do so..

tui also breaking in the latest version 0.31.0

[Tpuljak]

@bryans-go can you please let us know how to reproduce this?

[bryans-go]

@Tpuljak I used Daytona list on one tab and Daytona create on other tab of the terminal. Which leads to pressure on tui . And the following happened

[idagelic]

@bryans-go

1. Run the Daytona server separately
2. Run daytona list in a new terminal window
3. Run daytona create on a new tab in the same window

These are all the steps for reproduction? I tried it out and found no issues. Also, the list command does not run indefinitely, it executes immediately so I am curious on how that would make a difference.

Can you please try the reproduction once again and update the steps if necessary? I am also testing on Windows Terminal

[bryans-go]

@idagelic So we can conclude that TUI only breaks on custom themes terminal like this terminal app on windows 11. I had a wsl theme which is supplied officially by the windows in order to open wsl instance . also in the start of the issue you said you used Alacritty, along with OMZ . this is a issue with charmbracelet huh or the custom terminals

[abhishek818]

I remember reading few issues on github stating problems with bubbletea tui breaking specifically on alacrity terminal with no apparent fix mentioned. I am guessing it's the problem with the library on certain terminals.

[bryans-go]

@abhishek818 do you mind sharing references or links to those issue here

[idagelic]

The thing is that I have this issue appear on my setup as well, maybe every hundredth open of daytona create - reproducing it is the real problem since that's the first step to solving. If there are already existing issues on charm libs, I'd like to take a look.

[abhishek818]

I found those issues on github the last time I was working on #725.
Cant find them now upon a brief browsing now, but terminal resize/missing output etc. type of issues with bubbletea on alacritty can be found on their official repo - link
