Elpy: highlight indentation can't be disabled

[valignatev]

Hi, I try to disable highlight indentation which came from elpy-module-highlight-indentation and I can't do that.
I tried to disable it through elpy-config or manually delete it from elpy-modules but indentation is still highlighted.

The only way I can disable it is to issue M-x highlight-indentation-mode manually in current buffer.
For some reason even putting (highlight-indentation-mode 0) in config doesn't work. I think that elpy initialize it's module after that.

P.S. I feel like it's a very newbie question :/

No, it's a very big concern for me as well. This highlight mode quite "misbehaves". I'd be very interested to see someone with a nice setup, because it just looks very ugly in my experience. But I'd still like a nice version!

In your case, you could just simply disable it.

Try:

1. elpy-config
2. On the bottom, it says "Group Elpy", click on it
3. Go to "Elpy Modules". You can untick Display indentation markers (highlight-indentation). Save state for future sessions.

Now try reloading.

@kootenpv I did this and it didn't help me. Indentation still showing up until I completely switch off highlight-indentation-mode

Do you have any other places were you might be using highlihght-indentation? I only added this line to my init.el, restarted emacs, and it works.

(delete `elpy-module-highlight-indentation elpy-modules)

@gopar I don't think so, putting (deleteelpy-module-highlight-indentation elpy-modules)didn't helped either :( I haven't even mention highlight-indentation in myinit.el`. Here is it just in case: https://github.com/valentjedi/emacsd/blob/master/init.el

What's the value of elpy-modules (C-h v elpy-modules) after restarting Emacs? It should not include highlight-indentation-mode. Also, make sure to restart Emacs, changing Elpy's config won't affect already opened Python buffers.

So it means that there must be something else enabled highlighting?

[jorgenschaefer]

Yes – elpy does only enable those modules when it starts up.

Hmm. yeah, I just remove elpy and nothing changed. So I guess problem in something else. I think I'll close this issue. Thank you all for help and suggestions.
