Updates: Status: Accepted Comment #1 on issue 295 by coreyoconnor: Strange overlay behavior (Vty frontend on OS X) http://code.google.com/p/yi-editor/issues/detail?id=295
There are two underlying causes of this bug. First: Terminal.app does not support the "bright_black" color. Which is what Yi.UI.Vty maps "grey" to. This should work as expected with iTerm and vty 4 since iTerm supports 256 color mode. With vty 4 iTerm.app is always treated as a terminal that supports 256 color mode. Previously it was up to the user to have set the TERM env variable correctly for iTerm.app. Second: If bright colors are not supported then vty will map the color to the non-bright variant. If the background color is black and grey (bright_black) is mapped to black, well, you won't see anything. This is still an issue with vty 4. I suppose vty could be more clever about the map from unsupported to supported colors. With vty 3 the color was actually mapped to the terminal's default color. Which could of been anything. In conclusion: It'll work just fine for you now with iTerm. Depending on your yi theme Terminal.app may also work just fine. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
