Change match brackets underline to border for html&xml

#1

// Set to false to disable underlining the brackets surrounding the caret
“match_brackets”: true,
The underlining is not so clear, can it change the underline to border or background color?
PS: I mean the matched whole tag like when my cursor click in tag, itself and the matched

tag will be both outlined or change background color not just be underlining.
THX!

i propose that matched brackets change color! this is the only thing i am missing from notepad++. selecting one bracket turns both it and it closing partner, red, which i find very easy to It is dead simple to see. the little tiny underline is impossible for me to see, so the matching feature isn’t especially helpful to me.

It has the same functionality as Notepad++ with the"tag_style" : "solid" option. It does various other things as well and it’s worth exploring its configuration options. (You can turn off the functionality you don’t like/use.)

Hope this helps,
Alex

Really, if Jon just adds the ability to change foreground color of fonts in a region, BracketHighlighter could be updated to change the bracket font color as an option opposed to drawing underlines, outlines, blocks etc. That is really the feature that I think should be added, then it could be applied directly to this request by Jon and other plugins could tap into it as well.

What @facelessuser said.

I was thinking of tags rather than brackets when I replied to the first two posts. Sorry.

P.S. I now understand why BracketHighlighter looks like the circus has come to town :smiley:
