I have a settings page tab that has 2 fields groups, and I can't see the title of the fields groups that I want to show to have a visual separator between the two groups.

Is it like this the title of the fields group is not visible? Or it's a bug?

Here's the code that I'm using to define one of the groups:

$meta_boxes[] = [
	'title'          => 'Tweets fetching API',
	'id'             => 'settings_admins__breaking_news',
	'settings_pages' => ['settings_admins'],
	'tab'            => 'settings_admins__breaking_news_tab',
	'fields'         => [
		[
			'name'              => 'Enable breaking news Twitter API',
			'id'                => $id = $prefix . 'breaking_news_enable_api',
			'type'              => 'checkbox',
			'label_description' => '<code class="admins-only">' . $id . '',
			'desc'              => 'Check to enable the tweets fetching API • Run now',
		],
		[
			'name'              => 'Breaking news hashtag',
			'id'                => $id = $prefix . 'breaking_news_hashtag',
			'type'              => 'text',
			'label_description' => '<code class="admins-only">' . $id . '',
			'desc'              => 'Capture tweets that only have one of these hashtags (<i>comma separated</i>).',
			'size'              => 32,
		],
		[
			'name'              => 'Default expiry time',
			'id'                => $id = $prefix . 'breaking_news_default_expiry',
			'type'              => 'number',
			'label_description' => '<code class="admins-only">' . $id . '',
			'desc'              => 'The default expiry time (<i>in minutes</i>) for the auto created breaking news posts.',
			'std'               => 30,
			'step'              => 5,
			'size'              => 1,
		],
	],
];

And I'm using the following code to create the settings page:

function register_settings__admins( $settings_pages ) {
	$settings_pages[] = [
		'id'          => 'settings_admins',
		'option_name' => 'settings_admins',
		'menu_title'  => 'Admins Settings',
		'parent'      => 'options-general.php',
		'style'       => 'no-boxes',
		'tabs'        => [
			'settings_admins__general_tab'       => 'General',
			'settings_admins__sticky_posts_tab'  => 'Sticky Posts',
			'settings_admins__breaking_news_tab' => 'Breaking News',
		],
		'tab_style'   => 'top',
		'icon_url'    => 'dashicons-admin-generic',
	];

	return $settings_pages;
}

It seems that the 'style' => 'no-boxes' behind that. Can't we show the titles of the fields groups in this case?

I have resolved this by adding a vale to the 'before' key of the first field of each group, like this:

$meta_boxes[] = [
	'title'          => $title = 'Tweets fetching API',
	'id'             => 'settings_admins__breaking_news_api',
	'settings_pages' => ['settings_admins'],
	'tab'            => 'settings_admins__breaking_news_tab',
	'fields'         => [
		[
			'name'              => 'Enable tweets fetching API',
			'id'                => $id = $prefix . 'breaking_news_enable_api',
			'type'              => 'checkbox',
			'label_description' => '<code class="admins-only">' . $id . '',
			'desc'              => 'Check to enable the tweets fetching API • Run now',
			'before'         => '<h3>' . $title . '</h3><hr>',
		],
		[
			...
		],
		[
			...
		],
	],
];

And here's the result:

Show the title of a fields gruop in a settings page tab
