How to change the folded part color on Vim


I fold some of the functions on my C code. When I fold them, the color becomes gray. Is there any way to change the color of folded part to another color?


Solution

  • You can use the :highlight setting. For instance, to set the background to red, add this to your .vimrc:

    highlight Folded ctermbg=red
    

    You can view a list of supported colour names by running :source $VIMRUNTIME/syntax/colortest.vim. ctermbg updates the console background; ctermfg updates the console foreground; and guibg & guifg update gvim's background and foreground colours. If you're changing gvim's settings, you can use whatever hex code you like (you don't have to restrict yourself to supported colours).
