How to make a used variable not turn white in Webstorm


I was wondering if anyone knows how to disable the feature in WebStorm when a function is called the variable doesn't turn white. I've set the default color to green but when I call that function it turns white.

I've look around in the preference area but I'm kind of stuck now...Thanks

Solution

  • Go to Settings -> Editor -> Color & Fonts -> General.

    On the right in Errors and Warnings find Unused symbol and uncheck the Foreground (and Effects if you don't want the unused variables to be underlined).

    Note: if you are using one of the default Color Schemes, you will have to copy it to be able to edit it. Just press a Save As... button on the top of the same section.

    Settings -> Editor -> Color & Fonts -> General

    Warning: this will also affect unused parameters, functions, classes and private member declarations. But after checking the other question you asked it seems like that is what you want.
