Can't turn off highlighting matching brackets
Affected version
- Nightly flatpak: Yes
Steps to reproduce
- Make sure highlighting matching brackets is turned off (uncheck Preferences > Text Editor > Highlight Matching Brackets)
- Place cursor adjacent to bracket (parenthesis, etc.)
Current behavior
The bracket (parenthesis, etc.) and its matching counterpart are highlighted
Expected behavior
No bracket highlighting should be occur
Additional information
I observed the problem with Python, XML and JSON code.
I tried turning the setting on and off, but highlighting still occurred. I also tried closing and reopening the application, but again, highlighting.
I tried turning the setting off with gsettings (gsettings set org.gnome.builder.editor highlight-matching-brackets false), but that didn't work either. In fact, the states of Highlight Matching Brackets and org.gnome.builder.editor highlight-matching-brackets were not connected.
