Update text in
bufferline-custom-areassection.There is an unexplained issue or nuance with the given custom-area example. It is possible for errors to appear with warning/info/hint (or any diagnostic level under any highlight group) due to the way highlight groups are created.
Highlight groups are created on first pass in L21 of method create_hl It is important to note that they are not unset.
For example, if the first diagnostic is a hint, then highlight group
BufferLineRightCustomAreaText1will be the hint highlight group. Then, if you fix the hint and introduce an error diagnostic, it will appear with the hint highlighting.One solution would be to unset highlight groups and then re-set them during method call. Destroying and creating the highlight groups each time tabline is rendered sounds like an expensive solution.
One workaround is to create the table entries with desired highlights so the
BufferLine[side]CustomAreaTest[number]groups and insert the text if needed.
