Feature Request: Expose an argument to specify what the dimmed color or amount should be. #9

It would be really great if there was a way to be able to specify a given color (or level of shading) to be used when the panes are inactive (rather than the default pink color that appears on my vim setup).

It uses the ColorColumn highlighting definition.

I agree that there could be some mechanism to fix this with the default theme, or when a theme does not adjust it.

What colorscheme are you using? What does :hi ColorColumn give you?

For the time being, you could try this (or some variant):

:hi ColorColumn ctermbg=0 guibg=#eee8d5

ah, i see...makes sense. and i'm using my own colorscheme, where I didn't have ColorColumn defined. thanks for the pointer here.

I've added a section to the README about it.

Thanks for your report.
