Gutter turns opaque when changing/editing content

thomasmerz opened this issue · 11 comments

What is the latest commit SHA in your installed vim-gitgutter?

e2056e5 <-- this version turns opaque when changing content
2ee9568 <-- this is an older version on a different computer, but everything is ok

What vim/nvim version are you on?

I don't know if this is related to this old (and solved) issue #596? But this didn't fix my problem:

let g:gitgutter_override_sign_column_highlight = 0

Is the problem that the buffer's background changes colour? (The sign column's background looks wrong to me, in that its colour doesn't match the buffer's background, but that's the same in every screenshot so I presume you issue is about the buffer's background.)

What colorscheme do you use? In fact, is your vimrc online anywhere?

Is there any chance you could try the different gitgutter versions on the same computer? Then we could separate vim's changes from gitgutter's.

I'm running the same versions of gitgutter (e2056e5) and vim (MacVim 9.0 p1-1276) as your problematic ones, without trouble, so there's something else going on.

I updated vim-gitgutter on my Linux Desktop to e2056e5 - also no problem. I will investigate what's different/wrong with my vim on MacOS and vim-gitgutter and give feedback when I found something helpful for this… 🤔

Does :verbose highlight Normal tell you anything useful?

BTW:
I'm using colorscheme desert and this is my complete ~/.vimrc:

Just a guess, but you could try moving set background=dark to before colorscheme ....

I see also some current updates in these plugins that I use:

https://github.com/vim-airline/vim-airline/commits/master
https://github.com/tpope/vim-fugitive/commits/master
https://github.com/eth-p/vim-it2-touchbar/commits/master
https://github.com/tribela/vim-transparent/commits/master (!?)

Trying to disable all and enable one-by-one to find a "faulty" situation… Some minutes later: Found it!!!! vim-it2-touchbar makes me "trouble"… not your plugin. So we can all now sleep (or work) well again using your fancy and lovely vim-plugin. I will close this issue. Thanks for your help ❤️

My Problem with vim-it2-touchbar will soon be history when my new Macbook won't have a touch bar anymore… 🤔

Glad you fixed it!

Glad you helped me! Sometime it's sooooo simple, but someone needs a little "push" into the right direction which you gave me perfectly dosed well.
