Using the <vi - t symbol> command in ctags, it is found that the generated tag list is covered by airline, so that the index list cannot be viewed.

[jianghao0302]

environment

• vim: 8.1
• vim-airline: master
• OS: ubuntu 18.04
• Have you reproduced with a minimal vimrc: ???
• What is your airline configuration:

if you are using terminal:

• terminal: gnome ternimal 3.28.2
• $TERM variable: xterm-256color
• color configuration (:set t_Co?): if you are using Neovim: no
• does it happen in Vim: yes

  actual behavior

  1. Generate tags file in source directory
  2. Mask the airline, and use vi - t atomic set command to query the index list of this function.
  3. Unshield the airline, and query the index list of this function with the VI - t atomic_set command.

expected behavior

2. Index list can be viewed normally
3. Index list can be viewed normally

Actual result

2. Index list can be viewed normally
3. Index list cannot be displayed normally

Mask the airline, and use vi - t atomic set command to query the index list of this function. Unshield the airline, and query the index list of this function with the VI - t atomic_set command.

I am not sure what this means, I suppose you want to disable airline and activate it again and test the query.

Besides that, I cannot reproduce the issue. I suppose your terminal (gnome-terminal) is not really xterm compatible. That is not vim-airlines fault. Please try with an uptodate vim (you did not mention the version you used for testing) and also a different terminal

Thanks，I will provide my VIM version and terminal version。In addition, I use the liuchengxu/space-vim plug-in integration package. I opened a lot of layers, not until it was caused by skin conflict .spacevim file:

[chrisbra]

Please use a minimal vim configuration. I am not going to debug layers of vim plugins.

Using vim-airline alone didn't find this problem. I provided VIM airline that I used alone. I only added a few plug-ins and didn't use the skin in space vim. Here is my separate vimrc file: Plug 'vim-airline/vim-airline' Plug 'vim-airline/vim-airline-themes' Plug 'ryanoasis/vim-devicons' Plug 'liuchengxu/eleline.vim' Plug 'liuchengxu/vim-better-default'

so have you tried another terminal? Or an updated vim?

There is no problem in using VIM alone. I'm not familiar with other terminals, so I can't debug them. There is no problem with the version of vim, and there is no problem with the support of this plug-in.

I don't know if it's caused by multiple theme plug-ins or status plug-ins.

[chrisbra]

I suggested to test another version, to see whether the problem is still present there. Vim 8.0.1453 is 1.5 years old, there have been many patches and updates accumulated. Current version is 8.1.2197 (at the time of writing). Also as I have said, using xterm-256color as your $TERM when you are in fact not using xterm looks suspicious. So please try with a real xterm (or configure $TERM to use the correct term setting for your terminal).

[chrisbra]

closing as configuration issue.
