Request: Colorless Match #397

Open Caraamon opened 2 months ago

Caraamon commented 2 months ago

Sometimes I want to edit something using base program's code coloring, which the colors used in difference highlighting can make difficult to see, so I'd like to request an option to have it match without colors, so it still synchronizes scrolling.

@Caraamon , Let me see if I understand you correctly - You would like to have an option that disables all diffs coloring so only the diff symbols in the margin remain?

Caraamon commented 2 months ago

I wouldn't mind the symbols, but the main thing I'd like is the simultaneous scrolling, so if something breaks in the new code, I can look at what was there previously, rather than having to manually scroll the original or do a find.

I understand and will consider your request but I need to find the best way to implement that. Meanwhile you could change the coloring from the plugin settings so it does not mask your source text highlighting.
