fa-show overlay display issue

Closed this issue · 5 comments

I'm following the http://tuhdo.github.io/c-ide.html tutorial; I'm at the function-args part and I'm having some issues with getting fa-show to display properly.

The overlay hint is just one line directly above the first function argument, and its a garbled mess of letters (looks like all options are just rendered in the same small space, instead of being spread out in the overlay menu).

I'm using a fresh install of Emacs 24.5, no x toolkit (so, terminal only) with GNU Global 6.4. I've not really modified the 'demo' configuration from that tutorial aside from a few keybindings (nothing that should cause a visual display issue like this).

Just checked: works fine in graphical / inside Gnome terminal / inside tty. Please post a screenshot of your bug, with emacs -Q.

fa-mode-capture

I'm relatively new with emacs, I'm not sure what you mean by emacs -Q (this mode disables all of the installed packages and I can't replicate the issue as there is no function-args-mode at all).

Ok, looks like just the coloring is way off, the actual text is correct for the hint overlay. Additionally, somewhere the keybinds for fa-idx-cycle-up and fa-idx-cycle-down were overridden which explains why the hint navigation wasn't working.

Any tips for getting the coloring to work a little better with solarized-dark?

Updated the faces:

The keybinds should work if function-args-mode is on. You can turn it on with M-x. To have it automatically, add this to ~/.emacs:

(fa-config-default)
