Hi,
I like Dark theme, but the highlighting color is changed frequently between gray to yellow when typing.That is a bad experience for eyes, especially for Dark theme.
So, how to disable syntax checking when typing?

Hi,
You could change the color in Windows/Preferences/Lua/Editor/Syntax Coloring, the color you want to change should be "core/local variable" and "core/global variable".
If you find better default color, tell us Very Happy

. We will probably change that for the next release.
(If you want to disable it, set the same color than "Core/Others")

Hi, other code editor (e.g. IntelliJ IDEA) will not change whole highlighting color in a function while typing.
I have not seen a editor like Koneki does.

Hi,

Happy you find Koneki different than editors. We have try hard to bring IDE features in Koneki, the counterpart of that are things such as blinking syntax coloration but workaround exists as Simon explain to you.

Workaround are not perfect and in your case the solution should be to have partial AST generation that can work even if the code contains errors. Doing this on a dynamic language is kind of tricky. We haven't find a solution so far but if you have any clue about that, you are welcome.
