pane_frame_style "none" doesn't work when pane_frames is true
Author: glapa-grossklagCreated Sep 15, 2026Updated Sep 15, 2026
To reproduce:
- Set
pane_frames true - Set
pane_frame_style "none" - Start zellij
- Panes still render with a title line, same as
pane_frame_style "titles"(the default) -"none"has no effect
This can be fixed by adding a Some(PaneFrameStyle::None) => PaneFrameStyle::None arm to the match in PaneFrameStyle::from_options (zellij-utils/src/input/options.rs) - it currently only special-cases Full and falls through to Titles for everything else, including an explicit None. pane_frames false works fine since it's handled by an early return above the match.
Introduced in #5318, first released in v0.45.0. I'll open a PR with the fix.
