Thank you for the PR! This is something I've been meaning to look into for a while but haven't had the time to get to it. |

Can you elaborate on why defer_fn is needed?
Would this not work?

Unfortunately, if you try it out, the position/size after resizing would be messed up, I think it is some race between the event and when the new size detail gets updated
It causes the contents of the window to shift too much left
There is probably a better solution

Without defering, this is how it looks - I'm pretty sure it looked worse for me yesterday, but maybe it was during playing around with parameters. Without the delay it's still a bit wonky - notice how LG expands outside the border window

Also honestly this is the first time I've played around with nvim floating windows, perhaps there is a more reliable way to do this, which involves checking a condition and not using an arbitrary amount of time, but I wouldn't know what to check against (e.g. some boolean that says the ui updates are ready), so any ideas would be appreciated and I would love to play around with it and update the PR :)

Actually on another computer, the defer doesn't fix the problem, and it really jumps around much. See:

Don't know why this happens or how to solve it :(

Hey, I was just facing this issue and just saw they are already a fix for it, thanks @chenasraf. |
It's pretty much working, the problem is it's kind of wonky and isn't very consistent. You can see the discussion here - something about the resizing logic between the 2 systems is not aligning right. Honestly I have no idea why this happens, if you want to give it a go, please be my guest :) I am currently using my own fork which is exactly only this PR added, so I am using it daily myself, but I'm not sure it's good enough quality to have for everyone yet. |
Fixes #116

The
deferis a bit of a hack, but otherwise the new size doesn't get enough time to be properly registered. It still sometimes messes up and positions itself slightly off sometimes if I try to do it several times fast, so maybe the delay needs to be adjusted, some debounce added, or we might want to find a different method for ensuring the window has the correct size.
