Weird highlight issue after upgrading Nvim to 0.9.0

[Hanaasagi]

Problem

Colors are re-rendered after lsp setup. Nvim 0.8.3 does not have this problem.

simplescreenrecorder-2023-04-13_11.50.35.mp4

Actually I'm using other theme, but nvim's default theme also doesn't work.

Minimal, Reproducible Example

The exmaple code only installs two plugins, nvim-lspconfig and nvim-treesitter.

local _M = {}

function _M.setup()
  -- load builtin configs
  require('builtin')

  -- load plugin manager
  local lazypath = vim.fn.stdpath("data") .. "/lazy/lazy.nvim"
  if not vim.loop.fs_stat(lazypath) then
    print('installing lazy.nvim...')
    vim.fn.system({
      "git",
      "clone",
      "--filter=blob:none",
      "https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim.git",
      "--branch=stable", -- latest stable release
      lazypath,
    })
    print('installing lazy.nvim...done')
  end
  vim.opt.rtp:prepend(lazypath)

  -- load plugins, auto import lua/plugins files
  -- require("lazy").setup({ { import = "plugins" } })
  require("lazy").setup({
    {
      "neovim/nvim-lspconfig",
      config = function()
        local lspconfig = require('lspconfig')
        lspconfig.tsserver.setup {}
      end,
    },
    {
      "nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter",
      config = function()
        require'nvim-treesitter.configs'.setup {
          -- A list of parser names, or "all" (the five listed parsers should always be installed)
          ensure_installed = { "c", "lua", "vim", "vimdoc", "query", "typescript" },

          -- Install parsers synchronously (only applied to `ensure_installed`)
          sync_install = false,

          -- Automatically install missing parsers when entering buffer
          -- Recommendation: set to false if you don't have `tree-sitter` CLI installed locally
          auto_install = true,

          -- List of parsers to ignore installing (for "all")
          ignore_install = { "javascript" },

          ---- If you need to change the installation directory of the parsers (see -> Advanced Setup)
          -- parser_install_dir = "/some/path/to/store/parsers", -- Remember to run vim.opt.runtimepath:append("/some/path/to/store/parsers")!

          highlight = {
            enable = true,

            -- NOTE: these are the names of the parsers and not the filetype. (for example if you want to
            -- disable highlighting for the `tex` filetype, you need to include `latex` in this list as this is
            -- the name of the parser)
            -- list of language that will be disabled
            disable = { "c", "rust" },
            -- Or use a function for more flexibility, e.g. to disable slow treesitter highlight for large files
            disable = function(lang, buf)
              local max_filesize = 100 * 1024 -- 100 KB
              local ok, stats = pcall(vim.loop.fs_stat, vim.api.nvim_buf_get_name(buf))
              if ok and stats and stats.size > max_filesize then
                return true
              end
            end,

            -- Setting this to true will run `:h syntax` and tree-sitter at the same time.
            -- Set this to `true` if you depend on 'syntax' being enabled (like for indentation).
            -- Using this option may slow down your editor, and you may see some duplicate highlights.
            -- Instead of true it can also be a list of languages
            additional_vim_regex_highlighting = false,
          },
        }
      end,
    },

  })
end

_M.setup()

better lsp semantic tokens support was added in 0.9.0, this is expected.

[Hanaasagi]

Thanks for you relply. Should I open an issue on the repo of the theme to seek support? Is there any documentation available on this change?

:h lsp-semantic-highlighting

I know this is already answered, but I was slow to update to neovim 0.9.0, so I wanted to add that I ran into this with a Dockerfile.

What helped a lot was to use move your cursor to the word you want to check the highlight for, and run :Inspect

Then you don't have to run :TSHighlightCapturesUnderCursor which means you might not need nvim-treesitter/playground for basic highlight inspecting work, provided you don't need to open a bug with nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter :)
