status line issue with strings with attributes

[stefanofornari]

Hello,
I am quite happy to work with the new status functionality, but I may have incurred into a bug. This is the code I use:

String statusLine = msg + "\t| ";

        for(Future f: tasks) {
            if (!f.isDone()) {
                statusLine +=
                    new AttributedString(
                        " T" + f.hashCode() + " ",
                        AttributedStyle.INVERSE.foreground(2).background(AttributedStyle.WHITE)
                    ).toAnsi();
            }
        }

Fundamentally I am creating the final string with attributes and then:

lines.add(new AttributedString(statusLine));
status.update(lines);
status.redraw();

The problem is that when the string growth the output breaks like in the attached screenshot. Is it a bug, or am I doing anything wrong?

At this point, the Status helper does not cut strings to ensure the length is less than the terminal width.
You need to ensure the strings are not too long using:

        lines = lines.stream().map(l -> l.columnSubSequence(0, terminal.getWidth())).collect(Collectors.toList());

I will give it a try, but this happens far before the end of the terminal. maybe control chars are counted as normal chars?

Did you solve the problem ?
