• Disable cursorline

.vimrc

" set cursorline

Result:

• Enable cursorline

.vimrc

highlight CursorLine cterm=none ctermfg=None

Result:

I don't want the white background appear. How could I to hide or make it transparent?

What's the output of :highlight CursorLine and :highlight CursorWord1?

[imuxin]

I am not clear about the .vimrc status what "highlight xxx" commands are based on. I can show you my entire vimrc file content. You can test on your local environment.

I can't still reproduce the issue. Please let me know the output of executing :highlight CursorLine and :highlight CursorWord1 from the command line.

Caused by termguicolors?

[imuxin]

:highlight CursorLine

---

:highlight CursorWord1

[imuxin]

Unset termguicolors

:highlight CursorLine

---

:highlight CursorWord1

[itchyny]

You don't set the guibg of CursorLine in your vimrc but it seems that it is set lazily somewhere. Adding guibg=Grey40 to highlight CursorLine should fix this.

It works! Thanks!
