How to exclude Hydra windows and Ivy/Counsel minibuffer interface? #19

Closed alienbogart closed 4 years ago

alienbogart commented 5 years ago

Runtime Environment

I guess I could add my Ivy/Counsel minibuffer and Hydra windows to dimmer-exclusion-regexp, but I don't know which terms to use. Hydras and minibuffer don't appear the buffer list. Any idea on how to accomplish that? Thanks!

@mrbig033 have you find a solution ? I faced the same problem with Hydra

azzamsa commented 5 years ago

Solved. Adding "*LV*" to dimmer-exclusion-regexp-list solved the problem.

@azzamsa Thank you for the solve. It's working flawlessly! Could to explain why does it work, though? ;)

In the meantime, not to be a choosing beggar, but may I suggest you share your solutions as text and not images? I had to take a screenshot of your GIF just to make sense of it.

If you don't track your configurations on Git, you can always post it on this field as formatted as code, or use https://gist.github.com/ and similar services if it is too long.

Anyway: I'm happy to be able to use this very useful package once again. Cheers!

I think I've explained it in my previous comment:

Solved. Adding "LV" to dimmer-exclusion-regexp-list solved the problem.

(use-package dimmer
  :defer 1
  :load-path "~/emacs-packages/dimmer.el/"
  :config
  (setq dimmer-exclusion-predicates '(helm--alive-p window-minibuffer-p))
  (setq dimmer-exclusion-regexp-list
        '("^\\*[h|H]elm.*\\*" "^\\*Minibuf-[0-9]+\\*"
          "^.\\*which-key\\*$" "^*Messages*" "*LV*"
          "transient"))
  (setq dimmer-fraction 0.50)
  (dimmer-mode t))
