Improper formatting of the questionary.select default choice

[LeoTN]

Describe the problem

Hi, I’ve been experimenting with the selection menu and its default option. For example, consider this code:

import questionary as qy

choices = [
    "Option 1",
    "Default Option",
    "Option 3",
]

style = qy.Style(
    [
        # Better visibility for the selected option
        ("highlighted", "fg:red"),
    ]
)

qy.select(
    message="Selection with a default option:",
    choices=choices,
    default=choices[1],
    style=style,
).ask()

The menu opens with the second option selected by default, which works as intended. However, the selected option is rendered using the inverted style and does not visually update when the focus changes.

Expanding the style parameter does not seem to work either:

style = qy.Style(
    [
        # Better visibility for the selected option
        ("highlighted", "fg:red"),
        ("selected", "noreverse"),
    ]
)

Describe the solution

Changing select.py like this seems to fix the issue, but I am not entirely sure why:

ic = InquirerControl(
        choices,
        # default,
        pointer=pointer,
        use_indicator=use_indicator,
        use_shortcuts=use_shortcuts,
        show_selected=show_selected,
        show_description=show_description,
        use_arrow_keys=use_arrow_keys,
        initial_choice=default,
)
