Lightline theme screenshot doesn't reflect the theme #74

I'm using the lightline theme and its appearance is different from the one shown in the screenshot. The screenshot shows triangles at the end of each section (?) whereas the theme, as it is installed now, only uses straight lines for its edges.

Here is what I'm talking about:

Screenshot

scrot-plugin-support-ui-lightline

Theme

screenshot from 2017-11-19 11-14-03

Is this what the theme looks like presently or is something wrong on my end?

The theme only configures the colors which will be used by the plugin to style the different components. The alignment, the shown content and layout must be set in the plugin configuration. Make sure to read the lightline introduction to get to know the features and plugin configurations.

The screenshot is a mainly a preview for the colors, but I have to agree that it can be a bit confusing for new users so I'll add another screenshot using the default/vanilla lightline configurations.

Anyway, if you'd like to get the same layout and design as seen on the screenshot you can check out my Vim configuration in my dotfile repository

The screenshots have been made using the lightline's advanced
configurations (1) which may confuse users when the lighline does not
equal the one seen on the screenshot. This has been clarified now and
a additional screenshot with the default lightline styles has been
added.

Hi. Sorry to bump such an old issue. the link to your dot files isn't working anymore, is there someplace else I can find them? I love the look of your status line

The dotfiles repo is still around, it's just been restructured. Here is what you're looking for: vimrc.
