Subject: bug#47574: 'match' face is too bright
Date: Sat, 3 Apr 2021 02:42:43 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <c6d3c542-9b3b-1ded-dadf-caf27062ff59@yandex.ru> (raw)
Split off from the discussion in bug#47012.
I think the current "yellow1" is too bright and in-your-face.
It handles its goal (having the matched substrings noticed) admirably,
but perhaps too well, because we normally don't want to reach each
match, but rather the contents of the line around it. So I think it's
not productive putting so much visual attention on it.
Also, IMHO it doesn't fit the surrounding colors very well,
palette-wise. Too "acidic", or something like that.
Juri suggested #ffff88, and it seems good to me. Both readable and
noticeable, yet not too bright.
My original suggestions were "lemon chiffon" (seems ideally subdued to
me, but it would be a drastic change), "khaki1" or "light goldenrod".
