24 bit/True color not working in tmux 2.3 #696
Comments

You need to add Tc with terminal-overrides or a custom terminfo entry.

Colors don't look the same inside tmux. Possibly because I am unable to get
256 colors within tmux.
When I run the following script in terminal and inside tmux I see different
results. The gradient isn't smooth inside tmux.
awk 'BEGIN{ s="/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\"; s=s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s
s s s s s s s; for (colnum = 0; colnum<256; colnum++) { r =
255-(colnum*255/255); g = (colnum*510/255); b =
(colnum*255/255); if (g>255) g = 510-g; printf
"\033[48;2;%d;%d;%dm", r,g,b; printf "\033[38;2;%d;%d;%dm",
255-r,255-g,255-b; printf "%s\033[0m", substr(s,colnum+1,1);
} printf "\n";}'

terminal-overrides applies to the TERM outside tmux not inside.

Your TERM outside tmux is not tmux it is xterm so that is what you need in
terminal-overrides.

Hi, This doesn't work for me. My environment:
I have those lines in tmux.conf: And this the output for the awk in original issue: Outside tmux: And I ran What I am doing wrong? |
|
Did you try removing the comma since you only have one entry? |
|
@unphased I removed the comma and the "24-bit-color" is still not working in tmux and I still get missing for "Tc" |
|
You need the comma. Make sure you are restarted tmux entirely after changing .tmux.conf. |
|
@nicm now the Tc flag is true. |
|
You are probably using a script that uses :s for separators in the escape sequence, this is not supported. |

For anyone having trouble with this, you need to ensure that the terminal name in the terminal overrides matches the terminal When you add this override set-option -ga terminal-overrides ",tmux-256color-italic:Tc"to your Run This complete # Use the xterm-256color terminal
set -g default-terminal "xterm-256color"
# Apply Tc
set-option -ga terminal-overrides ",xterm-256color:Tc" |
|
This is wrong, it needs to be the TERM outside tmux not inside. TERM inside
tmux must be screen* or tmux*. Outside should be different, for most X
terminals it is xterm*.

When you add this override
set-option -ga terminal-overrides ",tmux-256color-italic:Tc"
to your .tmux.conf, the terminal in the override (in this case
tmux-256color-italic) must match the terminal tmux is actually using or
else the override won't be applied.
If your tmux term is screen or xterm-256color, the override above *will
not work*.
Run echo $TERM in tmux to determine which terminal tmux is currently
using.
You can change the terminal by adding a set -g default-terminal line to
your .tmux.conf.
This complete .tmux.conf tells tmux to use xterm-256color as the terminal
and then enables Tc
# Use the xterm-256color terminalset -g default-terminal "xterm-256color"
# Apply Tc
set-option -ga terminal-overrides ",xterm-256color:Tc"

For anyone struggling with tmux + true color + italic Nb. |
|
Another really stupid thing I was doing was having a tmux session hanging around detached from everything else. I kept tweaking my config and restarting my terminal emulator, but I kept getting reattached to the same tmux server/daemon/whatever and couldn't work out why nothing was changing. Make sure there's no tmux processes running. |
Works for me |
|
The active tmux server must be stopped and restarted after changing these settings. This can be accomplished with the following commands: Note, this is different than simply quitting and reopening your terminal emulator (i.e. iTerm2, Alacritty). |

alacritty sets $TERM to "alacritty", so no longer matches the wildcard. tmux/tmux#696 (comment)

Hi,
I am on Mac OSX Sierra, and I am struggling to get 24bit color support inside tmux.

Colors don't look the same inside tmux. Possibly because I am unable to get 256 colors within tmux.
