Vim-devicons: Small bugs

[daedric]

Hi,
I've two small bugs:

• First, when I re-source my vimrc, I've bracket appearing. I'd expect them to appear on startup or not at all. Maybe it is some kind of conflict with the nerdtree-git-plugin but I respected the order:

" here because of webdevicons
NeoBundle 'bling/vim-airline'

NeoBundle 'scrooloose/nerdtree'
NeoBundle 'Xuyuanp/nerdtree-git-plugin'
NeoBundle 'jistr/vim-nerdtree-tabs'

NeoBundle 'ryanoasis/vim-webdevicons'
"NeoBundle 'ryanoasis/nerd-filetype-glyphs-fonts-patcher'

I've a vim file by type of plugins and I moved vim-airline into the nerdtree.git as well as yours.
Here are some images: before: before and after: after

• second bug is best shown: bug2

Please let me know what information you need :)

Thanks

• per bug 1 - I have confirmed it as well on my end. re-sourcing causes the brackets to appear
• per bug 2 - Not quite sure I see what you think the bug is here? the misalignment due to having both this plugin and git-nerdtree-plugin ? Can you please elaborate?

[daedric]

About the second but I've no idea. Could it be that nerdtree-git-plugin uses too wide characters ?
Could it be some padding added by your plugin that should not be added because git-nerdtree-plugin display something itself ?

[ryanoasis]

@daedric I dont _think_ the second issue is a bug but it could be the default setting isn't good enough.

You can adjust the padding:

let g:WebDevIconsNerdTreeAfterGlyphPadding = ''

Let me know if that helps with the 2nd issue, I might need to look into the default setting for true mono fonts.

As for the 1st issue I am looking into it.

[ryanoasis]

@daedric Okay I think I have something that will _at least_ help.

Can you pull the latest and then add this to your vimrc (after any setting of syntax):

" after a re-source, fix syntax matching issues (concealing brackets):
if exists("webdevicons#refresh")
    call webdevicons#refresh()
endif

[daedric]

Still no luck ! I added your snippet at the end of my vimrc.
If it helps, I can create a tarball of my vim config so you can test if you're not able to reproduce the problem...

[daedric]

BTW, the padding stuff did not really improve. There is still some misalignment issue.

[ryanoasis]

@daedric Yes if you could send me your vimrc I can try to see if it works for me.

The misalignment I think I will try to add a filler character if the node has a git related flag, hopefully not too hard to do.

[ryanoasis]

@daedric For the misalignment how does this look to you:

[daedric]

Yep.
I prepare a tarball with my vim configuration (it is split in several files)

[ryanoasis]

@daedric Okay let me know when and where to download it and I will test out the re-sourcing :+1:

[ryanoasis]

@daedric Thanks I'll let you know!

[ryanoasis]

@daedric can you try this at the bottom instead:

if exists("g:loaded_webdevicons")
    call webdevicons#refresh()
endif

Note: I did try to use your vimrc but I don't use neobundle and had some errors but I did see that the fix I gave you actually was _not_ working for me as well but this version seems to work

[daedric]

You should maybe disable YouCompleteMe, it requires a CMake, a c++ compiler, and python development libraries.
I tried your new fix. It does not work for me :(

Thanks for trying !

[ryanoasis]

I actually use YouCompleteMe

What if you call webdevicons#refresh() directly after re-sourcing?

[daedric]

No luck :(

[ryanoasis]

Hmm that should at least do something. Does it open and close nerdtree if it is open (it should at least do that) ?

Do you have any errors in :messages after executing?

You are up to date with the lastest code in master?

[ryanoasis]

@daedric I am considering closing this for now, I cannot replicate. I added some of the notes to the readme. We can open a new issue if it persists :smile:

[daedric]

no problem :) good luck !
