What happened?

I've been customizing the fish theme and according to the docs I installed posh-git since its convinient to use the $ENV:POST_GIT_STRING variable. It renders but on the left leaving a large gap before it (image 1) when using

"alignment" : "right"

it looks like this

"alignment": "left"

produces this

This is where all the omp stuff is in my powershell profile

Import-Module path_to_scoop\\apps\posh-git\1.1.0\posh-git.psd1

function Set-PoshGitStatus {
    $global:GitStatus = Get-GitStatus
    $env:POSH_GIT_STRING = Write-GitStatus -Status $global:GitStatus
}
New-Alias -Name 'Set-PoshContext' -Value 'Set-PoshGitStatus' -Scope Global -Force

oh-my-posh --init --shell pwsh --config 'path_to_omp_themes\fish.omp.json' | Invoke-Expression

Btw, thank you for such a great plugin, been using it for years and has been working very smoothly. Any help is appreciated!
I've specified my config below

@pranavpa8788 I would propose to use native posh-git integration rather than the string created by posh-git as it contains ANSI and will have unwanted side-effects. That's also beyond our control.

@pranavpa8788 what are you trying to achieve because this technically correct. Your first block renders right and the second left without a newline. So if you want the first one on the right, then start left again, add "newline": true to the second block, or make the first block an rprompt. That way it renders on the same line as the first one, but your cursor stays on the first line.

@JanDeDobbeleer Thanks for the reply! well I wanted to achieve similar look to agnoster minimal theme. And also I forgot to mention above is that it works perfectly (without having to add newline/rprompt) for template such as this and only behaves like I showed above when using POST_GIT_STRING

"template": "{{ if and (eq .Ahead 0) (eq .Behind 0) }} \u2261{{end}}{{ if gt .Ahead 0 }} \u2191{{.Ahead}}{{end}}{{ if gt .Behind 0 }} \u2193{{.Behind}}{{end}} {{ if .Working.Changed }}+{{ .Working.Added }} ~{{ .Working.Modified }} -{{ .Working.Deleted }} {{ end }}",

Also the foreground attribute isn't changing the color (background attribute works) I've tried setting variables
$GitPromptSettings.DefaultPromptPrefix.ForegroundColor = [ConsoleColor]::Magenta too as suggested in posh-git docs, but I'm presuming that must be done in my omp theme file, so is there some other way I can modify the POST_GIT_STRING colors?

I've changed the first block to an rprompt and it looks right now. Except it isn't being rendered at the far end (right edge) but more so towards the middle like this. How can I make it "stick" to the right far end

Gotcha, thank you for the quick response. It was just more convinient to use POST_GIT_STRING as it had everything I needed and I was too lazy to modify the template myself
