Dialog not showing in Ubuntu 14.04
Closed this issue · 2 comments
Hi. I am not able to get vCooler to work on Ubuntu 14.04. I installed it with pathogen and it seems to be loaded (':echo g:vcoolor_loaded' prints 1). When I hit any of the shortcuts, nothing happens. I tried the following commands
let g:vcoolor_disable_mappings = 1
let g:vcoolor_map = 'g'
, tried setting g:vcoolor_custom_picker to a zenity command that I tested in a terminal, but nothing happens.
As suggested in the youtube video, I ran it manually with ':VCoolor' and the dialog showed up. I then set the following map ':map g :VCoolor' and it worked.
The problem seems to be with the default mappings of vCoolor.
My Vim version is 7.4.
With g
, the color dialog shoud show up after some time, wait a little. This delay is due to the fact that g
is used by default by a lot of vim commands, so when used vim is waiting for another key to be pressed.
The good way is to map it with another key(s) (e.g. gc
, gco
...).
For the default map keys, as written in the README, if you're using Vim in a terminal the combination Alt-c
may not work (The modifier keys there are handled differently). Let me know which mode are you using.
I close the issue, feel free to open it again if needed.
