Entering the yazi window, navigation breaks

[raoulg]

I start up nvim, and enter yazi.
I can see the files, but doing jk i go up and down, but fully left aligned.

The hl keys dont work for sideways navigation, enter does not select.

yazi works fine outside nvim.

Can you reproduce the error with these instructions? https://github.com/mikavilpas/yazi.nvim/blob/main/documentation/reproducing-issues.md

I can reproduce this too with following config

-- You can use this file to reproduce an issue with your configuration.

---@module "yazi"
---@module "lazy"

-- DO NOT change the paths and don't remove the colorscheme
local root = vim.fn.fnamemodify("./.repro", ":p")

-- set stdpaths to use .repro
for _, name in ipairs({ "config", "data", "state", "cache" }) do
	vim.env[("XDG_%s_HOME"):format(name:upper())] = root .. "/" .. name
end

-- bootstrap lazy
local lazypath = root .. "/plugins/lazy.nvim"
if not vim.loop.fs_stat(lazypath) then
	vim.fn.system({
		"git",
		"clone",
		"--filter=blob:none",
		"https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim.git",
		lazypath,
	})
end
vim.opt.runtimepath:prepend(lazypath)
vim.g.mapleader = " "

-- install the following plugins
---@type LazySpec
local plugins = {
	{ "catppuccin/nvim", name = "catppuccin", opts = { flavour = "macchiato" } },
	{
		"mikavilpas/yazi.nvim",
		event = "VeryLazy",
		keys = {
			{
				"<leader>-",
				"<cmd>Yazi<cr>",
				desc = "Open yazi at the current file",
			},
			{
				-- Open in the current working directory
				"<leader>cw",
				"<cmd>Yazi cwd<cr>",
				desc = "Open the file manager in nvim's working directory",
			},
			{
				-- NOTE: this requires a version of yazi that includes
				-- https://github.com/sxyazi/yazi/pull/1305 from 2024-07-18
				"<leader>e",
				"<cmd>Yazi toggle<cr>",
				desc = "Resume the last yazi session",
			},
		},
		---@type YaziConfig
		opts = {
			open_for_directories = false,
			log_level = vim.log.levels.DEBUG,
		},
	},
	{
		"max397574/better-escape.nvim",
		config = function()
			require("better_escape").setup()
		end,
	}

	
}
require("lazy").setup(plugins, {
	root = root .. "/plugins",
	install = { colorscheme = { "catppuccin" } },
})

vim.cmd.colorscheme("catppuccin")
-- add anything else here

[mikavilpas]

It looks like adding better-escape causes some issues. You could see e.g. max397574/better-escape.nvim#48 and disable all/some/??? mappings when vim.bo.filetype == "yazi", which is how yazi.nvim buffers should be recognizable.

I will try to reproduce it later, too busy now; but i already know that I dont have better-escape installed, without testing, so that might not be the only cause.
