window_current_{left,right}_separator does not seem to work.

[AllergicMushroom]

I'm trying to create a config similar to the following one.

I had defined window_{left,right}_separator options, and they seemed to work before I changed to window_current_{left,right}_separator options. However, the window_current_middle_separator works fine.

Below is an image of what I have right now. As you can see, the left and right separators are not displayed.

Note that there is no error related to those options.

I am unsure if I am missing something or if this is a bug. I did have a look at the open issues / PRs and discussions but found nothing related to this.

Why are you using catppuccin at all? If you don't want the colors then don't use a color scheme.

Also you only need a few lines:

%hidden blue="#005f87"
%hidden gray="#303030"
%hidden yellow="#f0c674"
%hidden black="#080808"

set -g status-style "bg=white"
set -g window-status-style "bg=white,fg=${black},bold"
set -g window-status-current-style "bg=${yellow},fg=white,bold"
set -g window-status-format " #I:#W "
set -g window-status-current-format " #I:#W "
set -g status-justify "absolute-centre"

Because I imported it from the first tmux conf I had which used the colors, but that doesn't change the fact that the separators don't work.

Also your lines don't do what I described at all:

Works fine for me:

Not sure how you're configuring tmux, but your changes aren't being applied at all. I'm assuming you're putting those lines above TPM, which means they will be overwritten.

There are lots of options you are setting which do nothing, so I'm unsurprised that things aren't working as expected.

Failing that, can you upload the debug logs? Instructions are here: https://github.com/tmux/tmux/blob/master/.github/CONTRIBUTING.md#how-do-i-get-logs-from-tmux
