How do you change the explorer and picker background colors?

[nickjj]

I checked the docs and you can run :lua Snacks.picker.highlights({pattern = "hl_group:^Snacks"}) to view a list of all of the highlights but I can't find the associated highlights for the explorer and picker background colors.

For example I'm using Gruvbox this is what it looks like:

I'd like the picker background colors to be darker but I'm having trouble finding which highlight to edit.

When I try to right click inspect (I am using LazyVim), usually that provides which highlight is being used but it doesn't apply to these windows so I cannot tell.

In theory in the highlights list, there should be a color that looks invisible because the text would be the same color as the background but it does not exist.

Turns out, it's this:

vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, "SnacksPicker", { link = "GruvboxBg0" })

It is not something important, but if you change the category of a discussion from 'General' to 'Q&A,' you will be able to mark any answer as the solution.

Thank you, I was wondering why I couldn't mark things as an answer. I adjusted it.

That works for me for picker but not explorer when it's using the sidebar, if I change `preset = "telescope" for explorer it works fine. There's something about the sidebar that handles the background differently

edit: It uses NormalFloat which is why I was unable to find a Snacks* highlight that was applying to it. Change your NormalFloat highlight to change the background
