These are forks/alternate versions of Solarized, without many of the
dynamic elements or the extensive terminal support.
[flattened](https://github.com/romainl/flattened) is a basic, totally
static version of Solarized with only ansi and GUI support.
[NeoSolarized](https://github.com/iCyMind/NeoSolarized) is a version
focusing on true/24-bit color support and NeoVim support, with limited
dynamic options.
[solarized8](https://github.com/lifepillar/vim-solarized8) is a version
focusing on vim/neovim true color support and limited dynamics. It is
already supported (`match()` matches it), but it is at least worth
noting.
Many users, including myself, use these themes over the original
Solarized for performance or technical reasons. Many users believe they
are incompatible with airline because automatic theming no longer
functions. While they can manually override the theme, most people seem
to miss this option in the documentation and give up.
It would be a nice quality of live improvement if airline detected these
themes and enabled its own Solarized theme automatically to match.
This makes it so if the whitespace symbol (g:airline#extensions#whitespace#symbol) is an empty string, we don't end up wth two characters at the beginning of the message.
commit #3d667c32d3ac04 fixed a bug, that a section was not considered
empty for the statusline, also g:airline_skip_empty was set.
However unfortunately, this lead to a regression, makeing the tabline
ugly, because sections, that contained a single highlighting group would
be considered empty and would therefore be skipped. Since this is not
what is expected, make s:section_is_empty() return zero, when it notices
we are looking at a tabline.
fixes#1273
airline_c (which contains the filename) usually is used together with
the buffer number, so that several windows showing the a different
buffer do not share the same highlighting group.
This was fixed in 73aea86a, but unfortunately it was forgotten to not
only add this to the current group, but also modify the previous group
accordingly. This is what this patch does.
fixes#1268
When cacheing the values of buffer number, window number per tabpage, we
might forget to update the statusline when it is actually needed, e.g.
on `:tab help h | norm! gt` which would then still display "Help" also
we are not in a help window anymore.
Therefore cache those values (including current tabpage number)
globally.
fixes#1253
consider a window with these splits:
,----
| file1
| ---
| file2
| ---
| file1
`----
If the top buffer is the active one and you start modifying this buffer,
this will also reset the highlighting for the inactive buffer2, since
the highlighting group 'airline_c_inactive' is used for both windows
(one having the unmodified buffer 'file2' and one having the modified
'file1').
This lead to the incorrect highlighting of the buffer name of file2.
Airline basically already created different airline_c<bufnr>_inactive
highlighting groups, but unfortunately did not use them.
Therefore, make the builder aware of this and always append the buffer
number to the group 'airline_c' if it is in an inactive window.
2) we need to make sure, the highlighting won't get overwritten, so
make the highlighter aware of this situation as well, by appending the
buffer number to the group name, if it creates the 'inactive' mode
groups and a buffer number has been given.
this fixes#1233
Using let g:airline_section_y = airline#section#create_right(['ffenc','%{strftime("%H:%M")}'])
will result in an output string of `utf-8[unix] < < 00:00`
This happens, because the function util#prepend() will eventually add an
extra separator, if the width is zero. Therefore, when building the
string, remember, if the last section added an extra separator and only
add one, if there hasn't been added one before.
fixes#1220
If active buffer is modified, `:AirlineRefresh` apply `normal` highlight
instead of `normal_modified` highlight.
No particular config is requiered to reproduce this bug.
I see this bug with option `g:airline_skip_empty_sections` set.
Add any modification at the active buffer return to normal mode,
**do not save** and wait a few seconds, you can see highlight change to
normal but file is modified.
Without option `g:airline_skip_empty_sections`, add any modification at
the active buffer return to normal mode and type `:AirlineRefresh` you
can see change to bad highlight .
The syntastic plugin recommends to adjust the statusline.
This does not apply for vim-airline for obvious reasons. Therefore
mention that this recommendation does not apply for us.
