Galaxyline changing mode colors for all buffers

[Sethen Maleno]

Having an issue that when I change a mode for one buffer all of them change. Here is a video for context:

As you can see when I go into insert mode and then press ESC it changes the mode on the next buffer, which is not what I want. Here is the code for context:

require('galaxyline').section.left[1] = {
	ViMode = {
		provider = function()
			local mode = vim.fn.mode()

			NVIM_MODES = {
				n = 'NORMAL',
				i = 'INSERT',
				c = 'COMMAND',
				v = 'VISUAL LINE',
				V = 'VISUAL',
				R = 'REPLACE',
			}

			NVIM_MODE_BACKGROUNDS = {
				n = colors.blue,
				i = colors.green,
				c = colors.yellow,
				v = colors.purple,
				V = colors.purple,
				R = colors.red
			}

			local modeColor = constants.NVIM_MODE_BACKGROUNDS[mode]
			local modeDisplay = constants.NVIM_MODES[mode]

			vim.api.nvim_command('hi GalaxyViMode gui=bold guibg=' .. modeColor .. ' guifg=' .. colors.grey3)

			return '  ' .. modeDisplay .. ' '
		end
	}
}

Is there something I am missing here?

I think you should create a short_line_left version of ViMode, like

('galaxyline').section.short_line_left[1] = {
	SViMode = { ... }

This way it will be a different object and will not be updated with the mode of the current window, I think.

however, I don't really see the point of having ViMode indicators in inactive windows.
