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)

Huh, that is quite odd. Have you set tmux to true colour? If not that may be the issue, though I don't see why it would select those specific colours.

Incase you haven't, here's the configuration to do so. Place the following in your tmux.conf located at ~/.config/tmux/tmux.conf or ~/tmux.conf

set -g default-terminal "screen-256color"

you should have to run tmux source ~/.config/tmux/tmux.conf to get it to reload

You may also have to add the following to your nvim config:
set termguicolors

or set TERM to xterm-256color in your shell (example: export TERM="xterm-256color" for bash)

Though I doubt either are your problem.

Edit: fixed neovim configuration

Thanks for helping. But No luck with those. Tried them all. vim said there's no option like "term". Other two doesnt work :(

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 1 year ago (2 children)

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

[–] mazadin@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year 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!!

[–] t0mri@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

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
