In nordic theme, when cmp matched some characters, there is no any highlight

But in other theme, we have

We push our formatting and docs changes to the main branch, but it is not protected and we cannot push directly. Should fix this at some time.

Apparently the suggested way is to open a new PR and automatically merge it in with the changes.

Hey, hope you're doing well!

I'm really loving this colorscheme, I'm not really a Nord fan but this variant looks really cool, nice job!

The only thing I would like is to be able to disable the italics in some hl groups like Comment from the setup function so that I don't have to add extra code in my setup to gui=NONE that hl group, would it be possible? :p

Cheers

I think you should probably add a vim.g.colors_name in your colorscheme

Expected:

:lua print(vim.g.colors_name)
nordic

Current:

:lua print(vim.g.colors_name)
nil

Other color schemes do this as well
Example:

:lua print(vim.g.colors_name)
catppuccin

Congrats for the theme, colors are awesome and the setup straightforward (I am mostly using gruvbox-material, which is vimscript so a little less straightforward to use). However, I was expecting that the transparency option would make popup windows bg transparent as well. I am no colorscheme expert, but I'd be glad to help!

Love how the theme is coming along!

Are there any plans to bring the theme to other editors?

Currently only supports Neovim. Not good :(

Hey man, loved your theme. My current favorite theme of nord palette.
I tried to get the classic theme for telescope popup but the theme seems to be in flat.
Do you have any suggestion regarding this ?

Hello

The treesitter context is making the line literally impossible to read, also when i go in insert mode, it anyway stays the same.

Is there a way to disable it?

Or make something like an underline like this, without changing anything but underline ?

Nordic use same color as comment for code in help make them very hard to read. Majority of other theme use string color. See screenshot

Nordic

Tokyonight

I'm using lazy.nvim. I found out that swap_background option is not working. I tried to swap them with on_palette option and figured out that it is called twice and therefore not working. I believe it is a cause why swap_backgrounds is broken.

    {
      'AlexvZyl/nordic.nvim',
      event = 'VeryLazy',
      config = function()
        local counter = 0
        require('nordic').setup({
          on_palette = function(palette)
            counter = counter + 1
            print(counter, palette.gray0, palette.black1)
            local gray0 = palette.gray0
            palette.gray0 = palette.black1
            palette.black1 = gray0
            return palette
          end,
          -- swap_backgrounds = true,
        })
        vim.cmd('colorscheme nordic')
      end,
    },

Hi, thanks for great color scheme!

I'm trying to change NeoTreeGitAdded.

local palette = require 'nordic.colors'

require 'nordic'.setup({
  cursorline = {
    theme = 'light'
  },
  override = {
    NeoTreeGitModified = {
      fg = palette.orange.base, -- works perfect
    },
    NeoTreeGitAdded = {
      fg = palette.orange.base, -- not working
    },
  },
  on_palette = function(nordicPalette)
    nordicPalette.git.add = '#FFFFFF' -- not working
    return nordicPalette
  end,
})

vim.cmd("colorscheme nordic")

How I can to change color?

It's looks like this:

Not everyone will like the default setup.

So that people can modify the base theme.

#49

Looks like so far all buffers are using the same bg. I did a bit hack override to use a little darker bg and it turns out wonderful side effect is that the nonfocused ones are still in the lighter one but the focused is now using my override which is immediately helpful in identifying which one I am editing.

When enabling transparent mode, we should provide an option where only the background is transparent, and other floating windows and components are opaque.

The palette changed slightly in #81

The floating windows and their background don't look that great.

Here is what I mean:

Searchbox,

Telescope,

and Noice.

I'd like to override so that the options match the background of these floating windows to#242933 .

Installed the theme with vim-plug, called colorscheme nordic and everything is plain white
Installed another theme, and switching to the new one, then setting back Nordic make the theme work
Like that :
colorscheme tokyonight colorscheme nordic

I got this error while trying to set the colorscheme.
I'm using the lazy.nvim

Need colors specifically for diff (see #4). It works, but it can definitely look better.

When highlighting in visual mode the background of what is being highlighted is impossible to see. In the screenshot the ASCI art is highlighted in visual mode its almost impossible to distinguish from the background. Could the highlighting color be changed? If so, what is the procedure to do so?

I will edit this and add items to the list as I run into them

Here is a list of things I would like to do:

1. all colors have separate values in the palette we don't change these just make new ones.

2. all configuration happens in extend_palette that way its safe to use colors in the default configuration.

3. All configuration options are reversible so if I load it with one config and then another there will be no issues. this builds on point 1.

Currently one black color was chosen (quickly generated using a random tool) and the others generated by blending existing colors. I would prefer that these colors are more carefully chosen.

Combine the format and docs job into one.

@5-pebbles I will do this, just tagging you. I see main failed because they are separate.

Haven't really had time to look at what might be causing this . But it looks like telescope settings doesn't extend to the opts table.
I will look into this tonight.

Hey, hope you are doing well.
As you know, I love your color scheme and have been using it for over 2 months now. I switched to LunarVim recently due to lsp config for tex and cpp ( i couldnt get it done even after seeing a lot of tutorials and dotfiles(including yours :p)). I want to use your colorscheme there as well. However, its only possible if your scheme is TreeSitter supported and listed here
https://github.com/rockerBOO/awesome-neovim#colorscheme
It is strange cause I see a nice color with tree sitter, but it breaks when I add yours theme in lunar vim. Can you look into this ?

First off, beautiful theme! I'm coming from using Gruvebox & wanting to change it for a while, this gives a great fresh vibe & similar soothing color pallets 🌈

I use Alacritty as my terminal & ended up porting the theme using 🤖 chatgpt by inputting iterm2 nordic theme

This is what it gave me & with minor tweaks to selection colors, it looks pretty decent.

colors:
  # Default colors
  primary:
    background: '#242626'
    foreground: '#BBBDAF'

  # Normal colors
  normal:
    black: '#191C1D'
    red: '#BD6062'
    green: '#A3D6A9'
    yellow: '#F0DFAF'
    blue: '#8FB4D8'
    magenta: '#C7A9D9'
    cyan: '#B6D7A8'
    white: '#BDC5BD'

  # Bright colors
  bright:
    black: '#727C7C'
    red: '#D18FAF'
    green: '#B7CEB0'
    yellow: '#BCBCBC'
    blue: '#E0CF9F'
    magenta: '#C7A9D9'
    cyan: '#BBDA97'
    white: '#BDC5BD'


  # Selection color
  selection:
    text: '#000000'
    background: '#F0DFAF'

I'll wait for an "official" port to arrive, but meanwhile, others can use this as an alternative.

The official port whenever comes, can also be optionally added to: https://github.com/alacritty/alacritty-theme

I cant find an option to set the color to be used for visual selections.

Is the a way to set the color for visual selection, I can change the highlight group, but it would be nice to still be able to use the cursorline settings.

I think it would be better to have a option to set the bg color in cursorline which would then be used in the blend.
Instead of having a theme option.

If there is not something like that implemented and you are interested, I could make a pr for it?

I just pulled the latest a couple of days ago, and it looks like the visual selection background color has been updated to darken the background, whereas it used to lighten the background.

I feel like there's no longer enough contrast to see the difference between selected / non-selected text.

This also causes problems when I'm sharing my screen for zoom calls, because the video compression reduces the contrast even further so no one can tell what I have selected.

Screenshot of how it looks now:

Currently, the plugin loads all the colors for all the integrations. This is not strictly necessary, and it would be cool to allow the user to explicitly load specific plugins. Some people love to reduce their startup times...

The border brightness can now be toggled (#53), however this has not been implemented for all of the integrations.

(a nil value)

I do have config block (copy-pasted from readme)

	use({
		"AlexvZyl/nordic.nvim",
		config = function()
			require("nordic").setup({
				telescope = {
					style = "flat",
				},
			})
		end,
	})

I think user should opt-in to use this old style like the lightspeed. Personally it break my flow with it enabled.

And I think the previous yellow #D9B263 is better than this new red.

Using Aurora colors in Nord for more contrast looks like a great idea, by your screenshots!

I would appreciate if you drafted a generalized color palette/list of colors, which I and other people could use to develop themes for other applications like VSCode or terminals.

As a beginner I'm having trouble setting Floats to transparent background. Is it possible to add a config option to set it easier?

I have the same error that is seen here on shaunsingh/nord.nvim.

Package does not seem to work with nvim <0.7 and packer, but upgrading to nvim >0.7 started getting this issue.

shaunsingh/nord.nvim#113

regular ( nordic )

bold (other colorscheme)

currenty visual selection is really hard to distinguish from general background. would be good to have it be a lighter color, so it contrasts with the backround more:

i'm sure one can configure it but I'm opening this issue in the name of having defaults be as good as they possibly can. thanks in advance.

Hey, thank you for this amazing theme. I just wish it had many official ports (like Catppuccin and Dracula), maybe in the future.

For now, I think there should be a colour palette preview available to view in the README.md for easy acces to the palette. This might also help others in making ports.

So, I made one :)

Hello, thank you for such great theme!
I used it in vim, but now I switched to helix editor and I would love to use nordic there too.
Do you have plans for migrating theme for helix?

Hi, i am using this theme almost half a year and everything was fine, but a couple weeks ago, after updating plugins - this strange bug appeared. I cannot find any similar issues (but there is a chance, that i'm just blind :) ), so have to create one.

Problem definition
There is no text highlight below selection in visual mode (no matter which mode is it: regular/line/block). Such behaviour appears only if the transparent_bg is set to true, otherwise everything works as it should be.

Environment details

• OS: EndeavourOS Linux / MacOS 14 Sonoma
• Terminals: alacritty / wezTerm
• nvim 0.9.5

Nordic setup is pretty much same as default, just added few mods.

Related notes to which I would like to draw attention
On previous installed version (unfortunately I can't remember which one), even with enabled transparent background, floating windows (such as Lazy or Mason) kept their non-transparent bg, which in my opinion, was much more convenient than now. Perhaps it would be worth (if it is possible) making a separate switch to leave opaque color for them or at least change it?

P.S. Also want to thank you for creating and maintaining this marvelous theme!

We need a better way to reliably override the palette and extended palette.

We should take inspiration from how tokyonight does it:

https://github.com/folke/tokyonight.nvim/blob/fbe3a27378fdd51a8ddd04f57012455436916a62/lua/tokyonight/theme.lua#L873
https://github.com/folke/tokyonight.nvim/blob/fbe3a27378fdd51a8ddd04f57012455436916a62/lua/tokyonight/colors.lua#L158

lspsaga.nvim has made some changes to the highlight groups.

Pretty much unusable with neogit & diffview

I would like to make it so you can use the palette for default values.

The rest of this issue assumes you are okay with that...

To avoid a circular import, I would need to move all option related values to a function… extend_palette makes the most sense, they will all be in the same place to which I like.

The only part that's not straight forward is the reduced blue option.
I don't like how it works currently, (you can't change it back once it's set to reduced).

To fix that, I would need to save a reduced and normal option, I can't think of a clean way of doing that.

My best idea so far:

extend_colors could take the options as an argument, and it could then be call in config, there by setting the defaults.

I could then have something like palette.white_normal and palette.white_reduced_blue in colors/nordic.

However palette.white0 would not have a value until config is run (seems like a bad idea), unless I added something like palette.white0 = palette.white_normal which is setting two defaults (also feels like a bad idea).

Does anyone have any ideas or does that work?
