Guake: Vim-atom-dark theme Not Work In Guake

[MohammedAl-Mahdawi]

Dear All,

Thank you for this awesome terminal, I really appreciate your hard work.

I use Vim atom-dark-256 theme, this theme looks wonderful in the default Ubuntu 16.04 terminal but in Guake terminal, it doesn't work.

Default Ubuntu terminal

Guake terminal

Can you please tell me what should I do to make this theme work in Guake?

All the best,
Mohammed

look like transparency bugs it.
You can fix the palette youself

@Stibbons Thank you for your help, unfortunately, it didn't work, I've disabled the transparency and tried almost all Guake built-in schemes and every time I change the color scheme the Vim colors changes as well!

It looks like Vim theme gets disabled in Guake terminal, only Vim syntax work.

Stumbled upon this issue and I can confirm both Guake (visor) and Terminator (right) are not rendering any vim color scheme I'm testing while the default Ubuntu (left) terminal works well.

This solved it for me:

Put set t_Co=256 in your ~/.vimrc, e.g.

set t_Co=256
colorscheme molokai
syntax on
hi Normal ctermbg=none
