Remove underline highlighting #38

Closed TheBaronHimself closed 7 years ago

TheBaronHimself commented 7 years ago

Hey Folks,

I'm reasonably new to Emacs (using Spacemacs) and was wondering whether it's possible to remove the underline highlighting the packages in this theme add (see screenshot).

Any ideas?

Best wishes, Simon-Claudius

In cases like these, where it's more about personal preference than an objective improvement to the theme package, you can put the point where you're trying to change the face (face is emacs' word for "font customization", so to speak), and then invoke M-x describe-face. The default value should be the currently active face at point.

You will see the face name, any current values, and a link to customize this face. There you can fiddle with it to your heart's content. Don't forget to click Apply & Save at the top of the customize window.

You can skip the describe-face step if you want, by invoking M-x customize-face instead. As above, it will default to the active face at point.

Hey mkaito,

Thanks for your swift reply. I apologise for not making clear that this wasn't a request to change the whole package, but merely a question how to customise my configuration.

I'm not sure I understand entirely. Which face do I have to change to disable underlines globally?

mkaito commented 7 years ago

I'm not sure you can do that globally. You can customize each face. The face in the screenshot is called widget-button, and is stylized with an underline with that theme. Unless I'm mistaken (/ping @belak), you'll have to customize each face as you encounter it, I'm afraid.

Okay, that's great. I managed to remove the underline highlights from the widget-button face and Markdown links.

If @belak could enlighten us about the global removal of underlines, that wound be great. Other than that: Thanks a bunch, this has been very helpful :).
