Colors don't look good for light theme

[hoschi]

I saw that I can configure some colors, but not the main background color, is this correct? Light themes are hard to read at the moment:

peachpuff (built in)

solarized

[pechorin]

Yeah, see what any-jump not looks good in solarizied. I think i fix it in near release, thanks for support. For me it was not obvious moment while i developed current versionn of any-jump cause primarly i used ~5 themes, but now i see i need to test it more on some popular themes, maybe do some special bindings for most popular themes.

But currently you can configure your theme via let g:any_jump_colors = {}. Like this:

let g:any_jump_colors = {
      \"plain_text":         "Comment",
      \"preview":            "Comment",
      \"preview_keyword":    "Operator",
      \"heading_text":       "Function",
      \"heading_keyword":    "Identifier",
      \"group_text":         "Comment",
      \"group_name":         "Function",
      \"more_button":        "Operator",
      \"more_explain":       "Comment",
      \"result_line_number": "Comment",
      \"result_text":        "Statement",
      \"result_path":        "String",
      \"help":               "Comment"
      \}

If you find best combination for your themes please provide them with config and screen :) Thanks.

Sorry for the less knowledge on this,

Can you explain what these individual settings mean,

let g:any_jump_colors = {
      \"plain_text":         "Comment",
      \"preview":            "Comment",
      \"preview_keyword":    "Operator",
      \"heading_text":       "Function",
      \"heading_keyword":    "Identifier",
      \"group_text":         "Comment",
      \"group_name":         "Function",
      \"more_button":        "Operator",
      \"more_explain":       "Comment",
      \"result_line_number": "Comment",
      \"result_text":        "Statement",
      \"result_path":        "String",
      \"help":               "Comment"
      \}

@nrupatunga you can map highlight groups to positions used in the plugin, e.g. "help" text should look like "Comment". @pechorin I can't change the main background color with these settings, can I?

[nrupatunga]

Thank you @hoschi . I got the hang of it.

I'm running into the same issue with illegible text on most of my themes. Can you control the color of the background of the popup box? The bright pink is not the best for most themes.

[alayamanas]

same problem, Can I change the color of the background of the popup box?

[domi91c]

I'm unable to change the background color as well. It seems to be associated with the Pmenu highlight value, but I don't want to change completion menu's background colour if I don't need to.

[ghost]

Yeah same here.

[tengteng]

I'm unable to change the background color as well. It seems to be associated with the Pmenu highlight value, but I don't want to change completion menu's background colour if I don't need to.

domi91c is right. It's Pmenu in vim colorscheme config. e.g, change/add below line in your ~/.vimrc/colors/WHATEVER_COLORSCHEME_U_R_USING.vim

hi Pmenu ctermbg=DarkGray guibg=DarkGray

Will change popup_menu color to DarkGray

[pechorin]

I add section to readme about this problem:

https://github.com/pechorin/any-jump.vim/commit/a3c9ed3ef7f01ed188daf0c64a08bb1e474d3748

You should configure your Pmenu hl group. I try to find some ways to do local hl Pmenu but don't find anything usefull. Maybe nvim winhl can helps in some ways but i'm not sure.

So, thanks to all.
