Colors not working in iTerm2 with Solarized Dark about vim-signify

[mhinz]

Hey!

I double-checked with someone on IRC. He uses the exact same settings and experiences the same issue. But it worked for him when he used a iTerm2 theme other than dark-solarized.

Sadly I have no access to OSX. But I'll dig into it.

Thanks for reporting!

Thanks for taking a look! Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help.

@Raimondi figured it out for us. 👍

Whatever this iTerm2 theme is doing, it works if you use a normal weight font.

let g:signify_sign_weight = 'none'

EDIT: I just learned from @Osse that you're probably using the font Monaco which doesn't feature a bold typeface.

On another note.. I just looked at the screenshots again.. in case you want the signs to use the same background color than your line number column:

let g:signify_sign_color_inherit_from_linenr = 1

Thanks @mhinz! I can get the colors to show up on initial load now, nice. However, if I save the file they go back to gray. Odd. Would you like me to file a separate issue for that faulty save behavior?

Indeed, I am using Monaco. Actually, Monaco for Powerline (with the added glyphs).

Try with 'NONE' in capitals:

     let signify_sign_weight = 'NONE'

That's what I have and I don't see that issue with saving.

Yea, it actually works fine now. It just wasn't working in my .vimrc (which is version controlled), but in my normal projects it works great. Thanks!

Check you contrast level. Make it to minimum. :)
