invisible timestamp

Open vdclouis opened this issue 8 years ago • 8 comments

Hello!

I'm using the latest .itermcolors file from this repo together with iTerm 2.9.x

When running, for example, gulp, the timestamp is not visible. When highlighting the timestamp I can see the text though... Any idea?

Are you using the default colors in iterm2? It looks like you are using solarized dark but I could be wrong.

Whatever the answer is go into the theme settings in iterm2 and play with the blacks. most none default schemes change the semantic meanings of the colors and will require an appropriate change to item colors.

yep, Solarized Dark. Apparently it's the ANSI Colors > Black > Bright that was causing trouble. Might be an idea to update it in the .itermcolors file?

The issue is that solarized changes the ANSI colors quite significantly, so any color scheme that asks for 'bright black' is not expecting to get black. My want to modify the itemcolors for your own needs, I am not sure if Mathias uses solarized dark so I don't think he would want his dotfiles modified for them.

I use Solarized Dark, but haven’t run into this issue.

Hmm, what iTerm version are you running? I didn't had this issue in older iTerm builds.

vdclouis avatar Feb 01 '16 15:02 vdclouis

v2.1.4

yeah, so version specific...

I'm running into the same issue when running Mocha tests:

I'm on [email protected] and using the latest version of the dotfiles.

Update: it looks like this is a known issue with Mocha and the Solarized Dark theme. The solution is to set the contrast to "Minimum Contrast".
