Hi, this may have been asked before but i found the solutions in those issues are not working for me, maybe something has changed since v2. When a word is illuminated it is still quite difficult for me to see. See screenshot below.

How do i change the background color of all words which become illuminated under my cursor.

I have tried the following from other issues and i could not get the color to change at all:

  1. https://github.com/RRethy/vim-illuminate/issues/41#issuecomment-782265824 (:hi illuminatedWord guibg=#1f4087)
  2. https://github.com/RRethy/vim-illuminate/issues/7#issuecomment-408697136 (:hi illuminatedWord cterm=underline gui=underline)

vim.cmd("hi IlluminatedWordRead guibg=#525252")
