color code 90 (dark gray) nearly invisible in osx terminal / iterm2
color code 90 (dark gray) is nearly invisible in osx terminal / iterm2.
in a "standard" terminal palette this code shows as dark gray. but in dark solarized it is almost exactly the same as the background color.
That's intended, no? base02 is supposed to have low contrast with base03. I'd suggest comparing with screenshots on the website, checking your display profile, or submitting a screenshot of yours if you really think it looks wrong.
i'm only trying to say that many applications use it as a foreground color (because normally dark gray would be amply visible against either black or white), and so that it should have sufficient contrast against the default background to be legible. as it is now it is not the case.
iTerm2 has the contrast set to the lowest. If you increase this, you can see color code 90. Still not awesome, but works.
@cgarvis That's a pretty good solution - it should be added to the iterm2-solarized README.
After reading for more than 30 mins for solutions this is the best one! +100
This indeed fixes the problem for me, is there any way this could be made the default value or explained somewhere in the README? Took a while to figure this out, nearly stopped using solarized :/
@foxx Unless there's a hidden value for the itermcolors file format, exporting after changing the contrast seems to indicate that the contrast setting is not part of the itermcolors file and cannot be defaulted.
this was fixed in vscode https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/146243
