The monotone colors are specified in L*a*b* -colorspace for perceptually uniform contrast, even when the palette is -inverted from dark to light background mode. Accent colors are selected based -on specific color-wheel relationships to the base monotone series -(complement, triad, tetrad, split-complement, etc). - -INVERSION: Solarized can easily switch from light to dark background mode and -yet maintains L* (lightness) relationships in the entire base monotone -palette set. Accent colors retain excellent readability on both light and -dark backgrounds. Thus the vim solarized colorscheme, for example, can be -easily modified and extended without any effort spent on maintaining the -light/dark modes separately; the mode switch is the simple inversion of four -color values. - -READABILITY: Solarized has been designed as a "selective contrast" -colorscheme (versus the more common high or low contrast schemes). Elements -which are secondary in importance, or which should minimize their visual -intrusiveness (e.g. line numbers and comments in vim) use the lower contrast -base color values, while high value content (e.g. code) uses higher contrast -base values as well as accent colors. - -SCALABILITY: Solarized has been designed to be used both in the full palette -mode (in text editors where many colors are useful for syntax highlighting) -as well as in a scaled down five color mode for graphic design purposes (web -pages). - -PERSONALITY: Solarized aims to be flexible in many contexts and as such it -maintains the common primary and secondary named colors (red, blue, yellow, -green, etc.). Despite the common nature of these hues, each color has been -carefully tuned in terms of saturation, luminosity (more accurately, L* -lightness) so that the entire palette has a rich, warm feel in the accent -range as evidenced by the ochre yellow and oxygenated blood red, -complementing the deep-sea blue-greens of the base monotone colors. - -On the name: "Solarized" refers to the dual light/dark mode of the palette, -somewhat analogous to the photographic effect of solarization. The Ian Brown -album "Solarized" is also on regular rotation in my playlist. - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -COLOR VALUES ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - -Download palettes and files from: http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized - -Solarized HEX 16/8 TERMCOL XTERM/HEX L*A*B RGB HSB -base03 #00141b 8/4 brblack 233 #121212 05 -06 -07 0 20 27 194 100 10 -base02 #13242a 0/4 black 234 #1c1c1c 13 -06 -06 19 36 42 194 54 16 -base01 #3f4e53 10/7 brgreen 237 #3a3a3a 32 -05 -05 63 78 83 195 24 33 -base00 #5e6d73 11/7 bryellow 240 #585858 45 -05 -05 94 109 115 197 18 45 -base0 #77878c 12/6 brblue 242 #6c6c6c 55 -05 -05 119 135 140 194 15 55 -base1 #9ba9a7 14/4 brcyan 246 #949494 68 -05 -01 155 169 167 174 8 66 -base2 #d8dbd4 7/7 white 252 #d0d0d0 87 -02 03 216 219 212 87 3 86 -base3 #f7f0dd 15/7 brwhite 230 #ffffd7 95 00 10 247 240 221 44 11 97 -yellow #b58900 3/3 yellow 136 #af8700 60 10 65 181 137 0 45 100 71 -orange #bb3e07 9/3 brred 130 #af5f00 45 50 55 187 62 7 18 96 73 -red #bd000f 1/1 red 124 #af0000 40 65 50 189 0 15 355 100 74 -magenta #c42376 5/5 magenta 125 #af005f 45 65 -05 196 35 118 329 82 77 -violet #6c71c4 13/5 brmagenta 61 #5f5faf 50 15 -45 108 113 196 237 45 77 -blue #007fc4 4/4 blue 32 #0087d7 50 -10 -45 0 127 196 201 100 77 -cyan #2aa198 6/6 cyan 37 #00afaf 60 -35 -05 42 161 152 175 74 63 -green #859900 2/2 green 64 #5f8700 60 -20 65 133 153 0 68 100 60 - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -OPTIONS ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - -Set these in your vimrc file prior to calling the colorscheme. - -option name default optional - ------------------------------------------------- -g:solarized_style = "dark" | "light" ------------------------------------------------- -If "solarized_style" isn't set, Solarized will use the value set by -"background" in your vimrc. I recommend using "background" for simplicity. -Thus in your vimrc file, the following sequences would set Solarized to -either dark or light mode, respectively: - - set background=dark - colorscheme solarized - - set background=light - colorscheme solarized - -The above is equivalent to: - - let g:solarized_style = "dark" - colorscheme solarized - - let g:solarized_style = "light" - colorscheme solarized - -Note that, if set, g:solarized_style overrides the setting for "background". - ------------------------------------------------- -g:solarized_contrast = "normal"| "high" ------------------------------------------------- -Solarized has been designed to keep contrast of less critical elements low -(e.g. comments are lower contrast). Solarized has also been tested on devices -with a wide variety of gamma values and should perform well on most displays. -If you find you want to increase contrast for the low contrast items -(comments, etc.) you can set this value to "high" (default is "normal"). -I encourage you to use it in normal mode first. - ------------------------------------------------- -g:solarized_termtrans = 0 | 1 ------------------------------------------------- -On some terminals (urxvt in my tests) Vim colorthemes may override -transparency settings of the terminal. Setting this to "1" changes the -background value in terminal Vim mode to "NONE" allowing your terminal -background color/transparency to be used for Vim's background. This shouldn't -be necessary in OSX terminal applications such as Terminal and iTerm2. - ------------------------------------------------- -g:solarized_termcolors= 16 | 256 ------------------------------------------------- -A very important setting if you are using Vim in terminals and want accurate -colors. There are two options: -16 - Use the named 16 colors of the terminal (red, blue, etc.). In order for -the colors to be accurately reproduced for this colorscheme, you must set -your terminal's 16 colors to match Solarized.
