How to Disable Emacs elpy Vertical Guide Lines for Indentation?

Question

I am setting Emacs for python development.

So I installed elpy.

But I do not like vertical guide lines for indentation.

How can I disable it or change its color?

Answer 1

You can disable highlight-indentation-mode for elpy-mode, by adding the following code to your emacs initialization.

(add-hook 'elpy-mode-hook (lambda () (highlight-indentation-mode -1)))

EDIT: changed nil to -1

Answer 2

M-x customize-face

In the minibuffer enter: highlight-indentation-face

Now you can disable or change as you see fit.

Alternatively, place the cursor into any of the highlighted indentation bars then

M-x customize-face

The argument in the minibuffer should default to the proper value

Answer 3

You can customize the variable elpy-modules to disable the "display indentation markers" module.
