Question

Hello,

I've been shopping around for a plugin that will let me zoom into a buffer, like mini.misc.zoom() does! Of course I should have expected that mini would have what I was looking for :D

I also use dropbar.nvim, and I'm wondering if there is any way to zoom into the buffer but maintain my custom winbar? It really helps me to have it there to remember what file I'm working in. I will add that it reappears if I hit space.

Thanks in advance!
Joe

here Misc.zoom() I'm not sure if you're looking for sample code, but you can search for that x.

I also use dropbar.nvim, and I'm wondering if there is any way to zoom into the buffer but maintain my custom winbar? It really helps me to have it there to remember what file I'm working in. I will add that it reappears if I hit space.

If you already have a plan for that X, or you can also use it like this: vim.opt.winbar=“%{%v:lua.vim.fn.expand(”%“)%}”

Of course, it requires writing a custom function wrapper. Something like this:

local zoom_with_winbar = function()
  MiniMisc.zoom()
  -- Set local winbar only if zoomed in
  if vim.api.nvim_win_get_config(0).relative == '' then return end
  vim.wo.winbar = 'my winbar'
end
vim.keymap.set('n', '<Leader>oz', zoom_with_winbar, { desc = 'Zoom window' })

As this is not the first time I had to check if zoom() actually zoomed in or out, I wonder if it should return a boolean indicating so... 🤔

I would be nice to have :D (previously I asked for similar features)

I'll accept a PR, if you want to:

• Make zoom() return true if zoomed in, false is zoomed out.
• Document return type.
• Add test.
• Update 'CHANGELOG.md'.
