FAQ

I can't see any vibrancy!

1. Make sure you're using Atom 1.19, currently in Beta.
2. Make sure you use either One Dark UI or One Light UI. Other themes might work too, see next question.

Does it work for other Atom themes too?

Possibly. But only the One themes are maintained.

If there are parts that are not translucent, you can override it in your styles.less file. Find the right selector in the DevTools, then make the background transparent. For example:

.one-vibrancy {
  // <- Add selectors here
  atom-pane,
  atom-panel,
  .tree-view {
    background-color: transparent !important;
  }
}

The font doesn't look sharp!

Yes, sub-pixel aliasing is lost when using a transparent background. A small price for a cool effect in return. 😉

Is performance ok?

Hard to say. Haven't noticed major slowdowns, but an opaque background is probably still better for performance.
