Edit: I that doesnt help:

  • set-option -ga terminal-overrides ",xterm-256color:Tc" in tmux config

solution:

thanks to mazadin for the solution.

im using foo terminal, so setting set-option -ga terminal-overrides ",foot:Tc" in tmux.config fixed it. (yeah im dumb)

Ah shit, that sucks, sorry to hear.

Sorry on that command if you're using lua to configure the correct setting should be

vim.opt.termguicolors = true

Or in your init.vim set termguicolors should work too. Apologies for messing up that last comment

If you're still up to trying some stuff, last thing I can think of is tmux deciding not to take the setting. Forcing tmux to use true color may help with set -ag terminal-overrides ",$TERM:Tc" or launching with tmux -2 may help, you'll have to source the tmux config again of course. Also confirming that your terminal supports true color

I tried that. Not working. Im really sorry, I shouldve mentioned this on the original post itself. I did some searches and tried these already. Im really sorry

Yeah thought you may have done so, still good to check. Hope the best for you but I can't think of anything else myself, unless you have a background set in tmux and a transparent background in neovim

For others who may help, what terminal are you using? What is is the output of echo $TERM?

[–] t0mri@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Foot. It says foot. When I'm in tmux it says tmux-256color

[–] mazadin@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Try this in tmux.conf:

set-option -ga terminal-overrides ",foot:Tc"

These overrides apply to the TERM you are using outside of tmux (where this is running).

man! its fixed. thanks!!

Im really sorry that I couldn't reply soon. I'll try it out

Yeah that's the expected output. I'd see if alacritty or kitty works as expected to rule out foot being the issue, then manually setting term=xterm-256color in your foot.ini if it does work in either

This must be incredibly frustrating
