Ability to disable highlight on file_rec match. about denite.nvim HOT 19 CLOSED

Thanks, interesting. I ended up with this after talking to @Shougo:

call denite#custom#option('_', 'highlight_mode_insert', 'CursorLine')
call denite#custom#option('_', 'highlight_matched_range', 'None')
call denite#custom#option('_', 'highlight_matched_char', 'None')

from denite.nvim.

I'd like to add that it appears that Denite highlights the entire match from the first matched char to the last, instead of just highlighting the individual chars that caused the match to occur.
For example, today if i searched for dte and an option called denite was available denite will highlight the entire word (like this denite) but it would be better if the only highlighted chars were d, t ande (like this denite).
Is there a way to highlight just the chars instead of the whole substring?

Nothing.

I want to upgrade Denite to the master branch but I'm uncomfortable with glaring highlight on the matched file names. Is there any way to disable this highlight on file_rec matches? Thanks.

Please change deniteMatched highlight.

And I think highlight on the matched file names with file_rec should be disabled by default.

I don't think so. It is just your opinion.

@Shougo How do I change deniteMatched? It would be nice if you add some documentation about it. Some scenarios on the top of my head:

1. completely disable the highlight,
2. change it to color of cursorline,
3. any color.

Thanks.

Not the highlight of the whole application, I want to change only deniteMatched. Currently, there's no documentation about deniteMatched.

Have you read the documentation properly?

:hi[ghlight] [default] {group-name} {key}={arg} ..
			Add a highlight group, or change the highlighting for
			an existing group.
			See |highlight-args| for the {key}={arg} arguments.
			See |:highlight-default| for the optional [default]
			argument.

Is deniteMatched a group name?

from denite.nvim.

Yes.

@Shougo Regarding the chars highlighting, are there plans to implement it in Denite?

If possilble. But it is not easy.

What is the main difficulty, computing the match or making vim highlight it correctly?

from denite.nvim.

I have improved the default highlight.

from denite.nvim.

It's not perfect but it's a lot better. Thanks.

from denite.nvim.

I don't get it. How do I completely disable the highlighting?

from denite.nvim.

@languitar Here's my current setup:

highlight default link deniteMatchedChar CursorLine
highlight default link deniteMatchedRange None

To completely disable highlighting you have to set deniteMatchedChar to None as well.

Using denite#custom#option() is better.
