How to change the color of comments

[vastray]

How to change comment color of multiline comments python? They are green by default. I want to change it to gray

class Tets:
    """
    multiline comment
    """

totes, i thought maybe i had solved the defining comments by overriding the defaults with my init.lua but it seems that using TSPlaygroundToggle on a random python file that i added a multiline comment to. i get the same results that you mention above. if i'm reading output correctly it looks like maybe the treesitter parser is reading the multiline comment as a expression_statement

and apparently doing a little more reading on this subject, those multiline comments are what i believe the python language refers to as docstrings

there does seem to be a workaround to label them as "code comments" to adjust the color if you choose to go that route.

I hade the same problem but in reverse. Tried to change comments to dark green to not be the same color as whitespace. (not python-specific)

This worked for me:

Snippet from init.lua

  {

    'navarasu/onedark.nvim',
    priority = 1000,
    config = function()
      require('onedark').setup {

        style = 'warmer', -- Default theme style. Choose between 'dark', 'darker', 'cool', 'deep', 'warm', 'warmer' and 'light'
        transparent = false,  -- Show/hide background
        term_colors = true, -- Change terminal color as per the selected theme style
        ending_tildes = true, -- Show the end-of-buffer tildes. By default they are hidden
        cmp_itemkind_reverse = false, -- reverse item kind highlights in cmp menu

        -- toggle theme style ---
        toggle_style_key = nil, -- keybind to toggle theme style. Leave it nil to disable it, or set it to a string, for example "<leader>ts"

        -- Change code style ---
        -- Options are italic, bold, underline, none
        -- You can configure multiple style with comma separated, For e.g., keywords = 'italic,bold'
        code_style = {
            comments = 'none',
            keywords = 'none',
            functions = 'none',

        },

      }
      require('onedark').load()
    end,
  },
