issues with underline and undercurl

Open postylem opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Hi I've just come over from using MacVim, and wanted a similar experience for neovim. VimR is great!

I noticed that the underline and undercurl highlighting are generally too close to the text. I know this might have something to do with fonts, but it seems to be true across fonts for the undercurl, so I think it's a VimR issue. Also, in some fonts (Courier New) adding undercurl seems to change the size too?

VimR, Fira Mono: vimr-fira_mono VimR, Andale mono: vimr-andale_mono VimR, Courier New (something else odd is happening too, here): vimr-courer_new

Compare this with MacVim with the same settings (it isn't necessarily perfect, but I think these look nicer):

MacVim, Fira Mono: macvim-fira_mono MacVim, Andale mono: macvim-andale_mono MacVim, Courier New: macvim-coureir_new

(Something similar was raised in issue [#817], so I sorry if I'm bringing something up that has been decided against pursuing for a reason, but I didn't see any comments there so thought it may have been resolved, but it doesn't seem so for me)

  • nvim v0.5.0
  • VimR SNAPSHOT-20210220.153052 (20210220.153052)
  • MacVim 8.2.2576 (170)

I agree with the original post:

I'm using the Iosevka font and find that the underline and undercurl are to close to the text and reducing the readability of it.
