Changing org-block background with org-src-fontify-natively

Changing org-block background with org-src-fontify-natively

[Karl Voit]

Hi!

,----[ my current settings for org-block ]
| (defface org-block
|   ;; defface org-block-background was removed from org:
|   ;;    http://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/14824/org-block-background-font-not-having-effect
|   '((t (:background "#000000")))
|   "Face used for the source block background.")
|
| (setq org-src-fontify-natively t)
`----

With this, I get the #000000 background for blocks like example,
quote, and src. If I do specify a src type like "sh", I guess that
org-src-fontify-natively overrides my setting. At least I get the
effect that with a given src type, the background is not #000000 but
the pre-defined background of my theme (wombat).

So, is there a way to modify (only) the background colour also for
source blocks with a given type and active org-src-fontify-natively?

Thanks!

Addendum:

https://stackoverflow.com/a/30139612 shows my situation whereas the
setup of John Kitchin https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7AaKHRd9uw
seems to have solved my issue: org-src-fontify-natively combined
with a different background colour.

Hi all

so i have zero technical skills or knowledge, but i have been looking for a
way to have a different background in org-src blocks so that bash
backgrounds will have a black color, lisp a white color etc.
from what i understand (but i may be totally off here) Karl, thats what
your trying to achieve? did you succeed in that?
does any one have this working in his config and willing to share?

thx!

Almost: I want to set the background colour of all source blocks to
the same colour so that I can clearly distinguish non-blocks to
source code.

Not yet.

What do you have org-block-background set to?

I use the leuven theme, which gives this a light yellow background for
me.

There is no org-block-background in my setup: C-h v org-block-<TAB>
only offers org-block-entry-blocking and org-block-regexp.

Org-mode version 8.3.2 (release_8.3.2-200-gc2eeac)

Thought so.

I am using (load-theme 'wombat t) these days which I want to keep.
This is why I tried to accomplish the background colour with
separate commands and not by choosing a theme.

I halso have no org-block-background in my setup: C-h v org-block-<TAB>!

Are faces supposed to show as variable?

in my setup, this is defined in org-faces.

Maybe you can do something as mundane as

(set-face-background 'org-block-background "plum2")

in your init file.

Maybe

I have no clue. Unfortunately, my elisp knowledge is very small.

This results in: "set-face-attribute: Invalid face:
org-block-background"

That is pretty weird. It should be defined in org-faces.el. What org
version are you using?

I don't think so - they are in a different name space - you need e.g.

M-x describe-face RET org-block RET

to see a face.

I guess that gives away I am still using 8.2.10! I have never figured
out how to get a higher version of that through
elpa/melpa/http://orgmode.org/elpa/.

With this, I see that "background" is set to the colour I want to
have.

However, what's the face-variable that defines the background of
blocks with a specified language?

Or does it interfere with my "(setq org-src-fontify-natively t)"?

It would be fine to have both: org-src-fontify-natively *and* a
background colour I can set.

It doesn't sounds like there is a way to do language specific colors.

I'd like to 'back' this feature request.

My Org mode experience would also benefit a lot from having source block
backgrounds again and with per-language configurable background colour.

Andreas

That’s possible with the attache patch.  An example of the horrors you can

How exactly do you get the pencil instead of the #+BEGIN_SRC and

Prettify-symbols-mode, I'm using the version that will be shipped with

It's documented in this patch.

No, prettify-symbols-mode allow you to remove composition whenever point
is within range of the composed symbol.  It does not allow to remove
composition for the whole range of the line.

This is great, thanks a lot!

One thing I don't understand is how I reveal what is hidden by the
burger symbol. I move my cursor around, including on top of the burger,
and nothing changes. Should I run some command to reveal it?

Best,

Alan

Indeed.  That's the main selling point of prettify-symbols-mode.  It might
be in Emacs-25; check if the variable prettify-symbols-unprettify-at-point
is defined.  I use:

    (setq prettify-symbols-unprettify-at-point 'right-edge)

If time allows, I will rewrite it as a separate mode as prettify-symbols
mode is not quite right for this purpose.

It does not exist here (on emacs 24.5.1), so I guess I need to wait till
emacs 25 ships. In the meantime it's fairly easy to temporarily turn off
prettify-symbols-mode (as it really looks good when enabled, so I still
want to use it).

That would be great!

Thanks,
