Re: no way to stop helpful modeline color tinkering

2006-12-08 Thread Richard Stallman
It looks like you just happened to use a background that looks very
much like a color by default used in the face `mode-line-inactive'.
You need to customize that face too, for good results.

So I think there is no bug here.

no way to stop helpful modeline color tinkering

2006-12-07 Thread Dan Jacobson
Big let down versus emacs21.
$ emacs -Q /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL #or any file with lots of text
C-x 2 C-x o
The mode line running across the middle of the screen is the same
color as my emacs background color set in ~/.Xresources,
Emacs*Background: DarkSlateGray

Instead of two windows, it looks very much like one big window!

And it seems there is no variable to restore the former emacs21 style
behavior. Thanks for trying to show me what buffer is current via
changing the modeline, but it turns out that was too helpful.

Dude... just set mode-line-in-non-selected-windows to nil.

Or customize the mode-line-inactive face...

While that might eliminate the problem, this could still be a bug.
When mode-line-in-non-selected-windows is t, the nonselected window
mode lines display in face `mode-line-inactive'.  Is that face being
set up in a suboptimal way in a certain situation?
