      How do I disable the highlighting of matching parentheses? It seems that most pairing characters (parentheses, brackets, curly brackets) are highlighted. I could not find the setting to disable this behavior, even after scouring the settings. I would appreciate the answer to this question.

        Hello Sullivan,

        Pretty easy !

        • Select the menu option Settings - Style Configurator…

        • Select your current theme or Default (stylers.xml)

        • Select the Global Styles language

        • Select the Brace highlight style

        • Click on the default red foreground colour

        • Change for the same colour as the Default Style style

        • You may keep the Bold option, in order to notice the matched braces or unckeck it to disable any notification about matched braces

        Best Regards,
