Kate 4.8 shows red or green border modifying lines
Well, here's a glitch: you upgraded to Kate 4.8. now suddenly when you type anything on any line, a red line appears (to indicate you have to save it), then when you save it, a green line appears. This is annoying to put it mildly.
You explore the settings trying to find a way to turn it off, but there is now way, finally google sends you to this page where you learn the following: Close Kate, then copy this into a terminal and hit enter. :: Code :: kwriteconfig --file katerc --group "Kate View Defaults" --key "Line Modification" --type bool falseOn the weird chance you might actually want to see that again (no idea why, it's super annoying): :: Code :: kwriteconfig --file katerc --group "Kate View Defaults" --key "Line Modification" --type bool truesigh. All is not lost, Kate 4.9 will have a gui option to turn that off. :: Quote :: On KDE 4.8.0, there is no way to disable the line modification markers.
In KDE >= 4.8.1, you can disable them as follows by first closing Kate and then typing .... In KDE >= 4.9, there is a graphical option in the editor configuration dialog in “Appearance > Borders > [x] Show line modification markers”. Why add in a feature that you probably don't want without a gui method to turn it off? Kids. Back to top |
