Match count label about selecta HOT 4 CLOSED

Why?

from selecta.

I'm sorry if I came off wrong in the original issue, that was not my intention.

Is there any major use case for this feature that I don't see? While I can see that it might have uses, I cannot come up with a practical example my self.

It does not provide any value for the use cases I have, as I'm primarily using it for file selection within vim, and I will just type parts of the filename I want, until it's on top. When the number of matches decrease, it will cause the left side of the prompt to jump and that is a bit disturbing.

What if you change the rjust to an ljust?

Sorry for the late response.

I tried changing the rjust to an ljust as you suggested - rjust is definitely better. :-) I guess it's not jumping - as the prompt itself doesn't change.

I still feel that the changing number prepended the prompt is disturbing. I generally do not care about the number of matches - I just write until I have the file I need at the top and then move on. So I'd like to be able to turn it off.

If you don't agree, feel free to close this issue. I just wanted to leave the feedback as a happy user of selecta.
