Error in vim.schedule lua callback

[ginesmoratalla]

Hey, I'm no expert in this and I assume there's some misconfiguration on my part (within my nvim config), perhaps coming from other plugins, but showkeys has been giving me some issues when it times out on an incomplete command combination, i.e., pressing just space on accident and not pressing anything else. The specific error i get is the following:

Error executing vim.schedule lua callback: ...a/.local/share/nvim/lazy/showkeys/lua/showkeys/utils.lua:58: Invalid 'window': Expected Lua number

stack traceback:
        [C]: in function 'nvim_win_set_config'
        ...a/.local/share/nvim/lazy/showkeys/lua/showkeys/utils.lua:58: in function 'update_win_w'
        ...a/.local/share/nvim/lazy/showkeys/lua/showkeys/utils.lua:77: in function 'redraw'
        ...a/.local/share/nvim/lazy/showkeys/lua/showkeys/utils.lua:83: in function ''
        vim/_editor.lua: in function <vim/_editor.lua:0>

The same error used to happen when using borderline, specifically showing when a command was incomplete and showkeys timed out, it just showed the same error in vim schedule lua callback.

Is this frequent on other users or anything?

Thanks :)

I see this issue often. I get this issue mostly when editor enters command mode. But,not always.
Currently, I don't have a video. Let me try to create one.

I think it happens when invalid incorrect key combo's are used like being at the end of a line and y3j is pressed. Probably some vim.api function throws an error and in turn the plugin shows an error and sometimes doesn't clean up the floating windows. I always keep the plugin loaded because I have set vim.cmd([[ set cmdheight=0 ]]) (and cmdline showed key presses for a brief moment) so, I see this error often and it gets annoying.

Easy to reproduce.

1. ShowkeysToggle to enable feature.
2. Press keys hlhl (any keys not these specific keys) which shows window containing key presses.
3. Type a command :Inspect, wait for popup to close, press Enter to dismiss command.
4. Error occurs.
