Ignored files in project explorer only colored after editing .gitignore file

[kiview]

I'm running Ubuntu 16.04 and IntelliJ 2016.2 and the .ignore plugin version 1.5.

When I open an existing project, ignored files are only colored grey inside the project explorer once I edit the .gitignore file.

Before editing:

After inserting a whitspace:

looks like you mean the VCS coloring. if you use VCS (like git) in phpstorm, the files are

• light-gray if they are unmodified
• blue if they are modified
• red if they are new
• green if they are freshly added
• gray if they are ignored

you can change the color here ("Editor > Colors & Fonts > VCS" "Editor > Color & Fonts > File Status"):

Yes I know, the problem seems to be, that these coloring is only correctly updated/rendered, after I've edited the .gitignore file. I'm not sure if this is a bug of the plugin or an IDEA bug?

Thanks for reporting. I've fixed it and it will be available in the next release - v1.6.
