Using (doom-themes-treemacs-config) also changes the faces configuration for treemacs-icons-dired-mode

[CSRaghunandan]

As the title implies, setting the doom-themes-treemacs-config also change the respective faces in dired when treemacs-iconcs-dired-mode

Can I do something to disable the faces in dired being changed? Because it looks completely off. Attached screenshot below for reference.

I don't think that's something to be fixed here. We just use Tremmacs's API to configure it's icons, and nothing more than that. The real problem here is that you're using treemacs-icons-dired, which grabs the exact same icons from treemacs and puts them in dired (hence the name). A solution would be to use another plugin like all-the-icons-dired instead (that's what I use), to display the same icons, but without the chevrons in the directory icons.

I see, so the problem is with treemacs API then? So, does this issue belong in treemacs issue tracker?

How is the performance of all-the-icons-dired when a directory has many files/folders. If it is acceptable I don't mind using it.

And, what are chevrons in the directory icons?

I don't think that's an issue, the package just does what it's supposed to, and I think the problem really is that treemacs-icons-dired it's supposed to be used with treemacs's default theme. all-the-icons-dired works pretty well and it's easy to configure!

The chevrons are the ">" symbols at the left of the directory icons.

I see, I'll give all-the-icons-dired a try and see how it works.

Thanks

@hlissner I think I found what the problem here is.

The function doom-themes-fix-treemacs-icons-dired-mode in doom-themes-ext-treemacs is supposed to set the tab-width to 1 inside dired-buffers, but for some reason, its failing to do so and you end up the result I showed in screenshot in the first post.

For now, I'm manually setting the local variable for tab-width in dired buffers to 1 as a temporary workaround.

Hope this helps you to fix the problem.

I've fixed doom-themes-fix-treemacs-icons-dired-mode in aa215ed. Let me know if that isn't the case and I'll reopen the issue. Thanks for bringing it to my attention!
