buffer name square around

[mashu]

Hi,

Attached screen shows that buffer name "emacs-init.org" has not consistent orange color when not in focus. The square around it looks ugly.

My config you can also see in the attached screenshot or here

Thanks for help!

I guess (setq moe-theme-mode-line-color 'orange) and (moe-dark) are the reason.

Try to remove the two lines, just use (load-theme 'moe-dark).

[mashu]

I try this

As suggested I removed those lines and use only what you state on your website. Theme looks good when in focus (except of white strip which I dont like) but when buffer is not active see attached picture rectangle around buffer name.

[kuanyui]

If you want to use (powerline-moe-theme), use (moe-dark). If you don't want to use (powerline-mode-them), use (load-them 'moe-dark)

I also feel this is so annoying...

[mashu]

Thanks, however my problem is still present. (first inactive, second active buffer)

Here is config

(use-package powerline
  :ensure t
  ;;:init (powerline-default-theme)
  :config
  ;; (setq powerline-default-separator 'wave)
  (use-package moe-theme
    :ensure t
    :config
    ;;(setq moe-theme-mode-line-color 'orange)
    (moe-dark)
    ;;(load-theme 'moe-dark)
    (powerline-moe-theme)
    ;; Highlight block with matching parens
    (show-paren-mode t)
    (setq show-paren-style 'expression)
    )
  )

Sorry, I cannot reproduce your issue on my system. (Both console & GUI Emacs. Emacs 25.1, latest moe-theme & powerline) with only two lines of settings:

(moe-dark)
(powerline-moe-theme)

BTW, There are a lot of implements of powerline, are you sure the powerline you're using is this one?

Hi, Looks like i have exactly the same version.

Steps to reproduce.

1. Start emacs
2. C-x 2 to split window in two
3. Click other application window (i.e browser but not emacs window) to lose focus on Emacs
4. Use Alt+Tab to select Emacs window again
5. Active buffer is not blue entirely, just the buffer name

When I click inside Emacs on each buffer, it selects blue correctly and inactive is also correct. But when I lose focus on Emacs window and come back with Alt+Tab, previously active buffer is not highlighted correctly.

I made a short 57 sec screencast of the problem seen at the end of movie https://vimeo.com/189513267

Ugh! If the issue involve the WM/DE on your system...It seems beyond the range which I can handle.

Your screencast looks indeed very bizarre, it looks you're using GNOME3 + GUI version Emacs. I just tested on KDE5 & OS X + GUI Emacs, but both cannot reproduce the phenomenon you encountered.

I'm not sure this issue is due to Emacs itself or moe-theme... Because I still cannot reproduce what you've encountered, maybe you can try to take a look of the code of the related part and modifying by yourself until it solve the problem, L475~482 handle powerline faces. If really solved, feel free to share your patch. ;)

(BTW, your issue only occurs when Emacs losing its focus, I don't think that's a unacceptable problem. :sweat: . But about Helm... I also encountered. It may be unsolveable, or more precisely --- I have no patience and free time to see what Helm have done on mode-line for such a subtle flaw.)

[choma]

I can confirm the issue. I'm using emacs 24. M-x emacs-version shows :

GNU Emacs 24.5.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.21.5) of 2016-09-05 on trouble, modified by Debian

I'm on gnome 3 (version 3.22.1).

@kuanyui in your screenshot you have the same problem as me and @choma The scratch has grey right triangle which should be forest green color.

I disabled loading of helm completely, and problem persists, so it's not Helm fault I think. Then I disabled loading of every package except for powerline and moe-theme, same problem.

@choma I am also using Debian, would it be possible to try on Ubuntu by someone ?

[kuanyui]

This issue should not be related to distro, window manager instead, I guess.

@kuanyui in your screenshot you have the same problem as me and @choma The scratch has grey right triangle which should be forest green color.

You were misunderstood. At lease on KDE5 & OSX 10.11, I don't have any problem you've encountered, except for Helm.

I disabled loading of helm completely, and problem persists, so it's not Helm fault I think. Then I disabled loading of every package except for powerline and moe-theme, same problem.

Sorry, I don't have any idea.

Take a look:

[choma]

I guess this is not a moe-theme issue, but a powerline one, see:

• focus-out-hook causing wrong colors on Mac, and
• powerline does not detect the "active" modeline correctly

I think this should be closed.

[angelovalderrama]

Same issue, it's a powerline problem, close this issue...
