Here is an MRE:

from textual.app import App, ComposeResult
from textual.containers import Horizontal
from textual.widgets import Label


class MyApp(App):
    DEFAULT_CSS = """
    Screen {
        &> Horizontal {
            width: 1fr;
            align: center middle;

            &> Label {
                width: 10;
                height: 5;
                }

            &> Label:last-of-type {
                background: red;
            }
        }
    }
    """

    def compose(self) -> ComposeResult:
        with Horizontal():
            yield Label("Start")
            yield Label("Middle")
            yield Label("End")


app = MyApp()
app.run()

When the app loads, it is as expected:

However, when the app loses focus, the styling is no longer applied, and when the app regains focus it is also not applied.

I beieve there is also an issue with hot reload with these styles, as they wern't being applied when I was running with textual --dev until I restarted the app.

On a side note, I'm not sure if this is Iterm doing this but I think it's textual... lately when I ctrl +c some of my key combinations no longer work. I am an avid ctrl + r, ctrl + w, ctrl + a etc etc user.

However, when I ctrl + c textual apps, the ctrl + combos are no longer interpreted until I reset the terminal. See here:

This had me scratching my head for a while until I spotted the fix!

I think the other issue you mention with ctrl+c is specific to iTerm as discussed in #5251 (comment) - you might want to raise a separate issue if you're experiencing this with the latest versions.
