How to disable fading effect?

[MunifTanjim]

Sorry if it's already documented somewhere.

I tried to look into #227 but couldn't find/understand how to disable the fading effect.

Is there any way I can do it?

Asking because sometimes I navigate the file tree like a normal buffer and press $ to go to the end of line to see the whole filename.

@MunifTanjim Might be jumping a gun here, but try resize_timer_interval = -1.

Close. that will prevent it from updating on resize but it won't skip the initial fading.

You'll need to override the renderer with your own layout that does not include any containers.

neo-tree.nvim/lua/neo-tree/defaults.lua

Lines 114 to 163 in d8aa8ea

	renderers = {
	directory = {
	{ "indent" },
	{ "icon" },
	{ "current_filter" },
	{
	"container",
	width = "100%",
	right_padding = 1,
	--max_width = 60,
	content = {
	{ "name", zindex = 10 },
	-- {
	-- "symlink_target",
	-- zindex = 10,
	-- highlight = "NeoTreeSymbolicLinkTarget",
	-- },
	{ "clipboard", zindex = 10 },
	{ "diagnostics", errors_only = true, zindex = 20, align = "right" },
	},
	},
	},
	file = {
	{ "indent" },
	{ "icon" },
	{
	"container",
	width = "100%",
	right_padding = 1,
	--max_width = 60,
	content = {
	{
	"name",
	use_git_status_colors = true,
	zindex = 10
	},
	-- {
	-- "symlink_target",
	-- zindex = 10,
	-- highlight = "NeoTreeSymbolicLinkTarget",
	-- },
	{ "clipboard", zindex = 10 },
	{ "bufnr", zindex = 10 },
	{ "modified", zindex = 20, align = "right" },
	{ "diagnostics", zindex = 20, align = "right" },
	{ "git_status", zindex = 20, align = "right" },
	},
	},
	},
	},

Here is how to have the default layout with the container parts deleted:

require("neo-tree").setup({
  renderers = {
    directory = {
      { "indent" },
      { "icon" },
      { "current_filter" },
      { "name" },
      { "clipboard" },
      { "diagnostics", errors_only = true },
    },
    file = {
      { "indent" },
      { "icon" },
      {
        "name",
        use_git_status_colors = true,
        zindex = 10
      },
      { "clipboard" },
      { "bufnr" },
      { "modified" },
      { "diagnostics" },
      { "git_status" },
    },
  },
})

This does mean that you'll lose the right aligned symbols.

There seems to be a bug where setting renderers at the global level is not working. If you move that key up into the filesystem config it will work though.

I created an issue for this bug: #291

[nyngwang]

@cseickel Could you also explain the purpose of current_filter here?

[cseickel]

@nyngwang When you are filtering the tree, that will display the search term being used. Otherwise it does nothing.

[nyngwang]

@cseickel It seems that a missing { is needed below the { "current_filter" } on the code above?

[cseickel]

@nyngwang They actually had the wrong indentation and an extra dangling } at teh end of each renderer from where I deleted the container components. I fixed the code snippets.
