Background transparent

[kamalkech]

option in readme not working, have u another idea how fixe it ?

[Mofiqul]

If its not working then its a bug. for time being you can do workaround like

overrides = {
    Normal = { fg = dracula.colors().white, bg='None' }
},

overrides ??? i an not using nvchad

[Mario-SO]

@kamalkech he is referring to the overrides section in the dracula config file shown in the README

Still tried what @Mofiqul said and still not working unless I source the settings.lua file where I have vim.cmd[[colorscheme dracula]] I did the loading of the config before that command executes but still nothing until I source wherever the vim.cmd command is found

Like @Mario-SO mentioned, the background sadly is not transparent, even if you set transparent_bg = true before executing vim.cmd[[colorscheme dracula]]. Transparency works fine in my terminal when using e.g. catppuccin/nvim 🤔

[Mario-SO]

Yep I also switched to catppuccin/nvim 😁 like @graves501

Any plans on fixing this?

Out of curiosity, which terminal are using and what is its background color set to?

Some terminals (I know kitty does at least) doesn't render transparency correctly if both neovim and the terminal have the exact same RGB value. It took many hours of banging my head against the wall to finally figure it out, as the only colorscheme that didn't work was the one that I wanted to use to match my primary terminal colors. I ended up just changing the color value of one them by a single unit to fix it.
