magit disappeared from mode-line

[wangyuehong]

i am using the dotfiles form https://github.com/purcell/emacs.d after installing smart-mode-line, i found that magit menu disappeared from the mode-line, and the other mode name has no reponse when i click them with mouse. emacs 24.1 windows 7 64bit

is it a feature other than a bug.

Ok, I'm working on it. Magit menu bug is fixed. All major modes are also clickable now (it brings up the menu as expected).

Minor mode names are not fully clickable yet (only mouse-1 isn't working). Not sure how to fix it yet, but I'll get to it in the next few days.

For now, I'm submitting this partial patch so that Magit will work.

[Malabarba]

Ok, everything should be working now. Could you check if it's working for you?

If you installed from melpa, the new version should be up in a few hours. If you installed manually, just download the current file right here.

You'll know you have the right version if the sml/version variable is set to "1.6.2".

[wangyuehong]

thank yout for your fix and sorry for my late reply. i am using the current version of sml but the magit menu still disappeared in the mode line.

[Malabarba]

Ok. Before I dive into it again, let me know something. Are you using the version from this github, from marmalade, or from melpa?

[wangyuehong]

i am using the version from melpa, it shows ' smart-mode-line 20120713 ' in the packages menu.

[Malabarba]

I'm sorry, but I can't reproduce this bug with my configs.

• Are you using any other packages that change de mode-line?
• Are you using the melpa version of Magit (20120714)? If not, what version is it?
• Are you using any packages that augment magit?

I'm downloaded the current version(from github). The major mode is on modeline and working(shows menu on mouse click), but there is no minor modes list.

emacs --version  
GNU Emacs 24.1.50.3

(message "%s" sml/version)  
"1.6.2"

In *Messages* buffer:

Maybe it'l help:

something about semantic-minor-modes-format:

semantic-minor-modes-format is a variable defined in `util-modes.el'.
Its value is ((:eval
  (if
      (or semantic-highlight-edits-mode semantic-show-unmatched-syntax-mode semantic-idle-scheduler-mode)
      #(" S" 1 2
        (face bold)))))

  This variable is potentially risky when used as a file local variable.

Documentation:
Mode line format showing Semantic minor modes which are locally enabled.
It is displayed in the mode line.

Magit is still not shown to me, I am using latest version from melpa.

[Malabarba]

Ok, version 1.7 changed a lot of things.

Is this still happening in 1.7?

[Malabarba]

I'll just file this as closed for now (if it happens to anyone just create a new issue).
