Frequently Asked Questions
Why are the :Gui commands missing? You need the Neovim Qt runtime to use commands like :GuiFont.
You can manually specify the path with NVIM_QT_RUNTIME_PATH.
Alternatively, you can install the Neovim Qt plugin separately:
Plugin 'equalsraf/neovim-gui-shim
On recent releases, you can check if the runtime is loaded with nvim-qt --version:
$ nvim-qt --version
NVIM-QT v0.2.16.1
Build type: Release
Compilation:-march=native -O2 -pipe -Wall -Wextra -Wno-unused-parameter -Wunused-variable -std=c++11
Qt Version: 5.15.2
Environment:
nvim: nvim
args: --cmd let &rtp.=',/usr/share/nvim-qt/runtime' --cmd set termguicolors
runtime: /usr/share/nvim-qt/runtime
...
Notice that runtime: is non-empty and points to a folder with nvim_gui_shim.vim.
Why does :Gui not work in init.vim? The :Gui... commands are not loaded when init.vim runs.
These options must be configured from ginit.vim. The file should be placed in the same directory as init.vim.
Alternatively, Neovim Qt responds to some vim options. You can :set guifont=... directly in init.vim.
How do I disable the GUI Tabs? Try :GuiTabline 0. This option can be added to ginit.vim.
Why does the popup menu look different? Try :GuiPopupmenu 0. This option can be added to ginit.vim.
The menu looks different because it is a widget rendered via Qt. Many users expect the nvim TUI (Terminal UI) menu instead.
How do I change the font? Use the :GuiFont command or the 'guifont' setting. For example, :GuiFont Fira Code:h12, or :set guifont=Hack:h12.
Why does :GuiFont throw an error? You may see these errors:
{Font Name} is not a fixed pitch Font Warning: Font {Font Name} reports bad fixed pitch metrics You can override this warning with :GuiFont! {Font Name}.
These warnings display for fonts containing variable-width characters.
They are safe to ignore, but you might notice font spacing and clipping issues.
Why is Neovim unable to start? The nvim binary must be in your $PATH. You can manually provide a path to Neovim:
$ nvim-qt --nvim {path_to_nvim}
In recent versions, nvim-qt --version reports the nvim binary path:
$ nvim-qt --version
...
Environment:
nvim: nvim
...
