Background colour

[djensenius]

Hello-

When using lualine the background colour doesn't match.

I made this change to make it work.

local M = {}
local utils = require("lualine.utils.utils")

---@param colors TmuxStatusComponentColors
function M.create_hightlights(colors)
  local lualine_bg = utils.extract_highlight_colors("statusline", "bg")
  for name, value in pairs(colors) do
    vim.cmd.highlight('tmux_status_' .. name .. ' guifg=' .. value .. ' guibg=' .. lualine_bg)
  end
end

---@param name string
---@return string
function M.get_highlight(name)
  return "%#" .. name .. "#"
end

return M

Nice one. Looks like you'd like the ability to set the BG color, so that it's retained. Perhaps this is better passed down in the config object. Do you mind sharing a couple of screenshots, 1 without the change above, and one with it?

Sure thing!

With:

Using theme = "catppuccin" in lualine

Makes sense. Perhaps the way to go is expanding the properties in colors to take an object defining both fg and bg, as opposed to a string. Do you think that could work?

That could work. :)
