With the introduction of neovim 0.11, the lualine is not anymore transparent even with the option enabled

I just updated my neovim install and encountered the exact same issue. Has there been any progress on this or do I just have to live with this for now?😭

Had a similar problem, solved with this:

vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, "StatusLine", {reverse = false})
vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, "StatusLineNC", {reverse = false})

That fixed it for me, thanks a ton.

Fixed in the latest commit! 🎉

The issue was that in Neovim 0.11, the StatusLine and StatusLineNC highlight groups were getting a reverse attribute applied by default, which broke lualine transparency.

The fix explicitly sets fmt = "NONE" for these highlight groups to prevent the reverse attribute:

  • StatusLine
  • StatusLineTerm
  • StatusLineNC
  • StatusLineTermNC

This should resolve the transparency issues with lualine in Neovim 0.11+. Thank you @leandreaux for identifying the workaround!

Please update to the latest version and let me know if you still experience any issues.
