Is there an option to disable output button blinking, either entirely or by type (e.g. don’t blink for info, only errors)? Similar to how you can select for which level it should be switched to automatically.
I want to keep the button because I use it frequently, but I don’t want to be notified about info type events, and the green flashing in the corner is really messing with my ADHD.
Apologies if this has been asked before, couldn’t find an answer in discuss or bugzilla.
i’ve taken just hiding the button since i’m not even sure what i’m looking at in that window.
what are you using the output info for, if i may ask?
This is not possible atm I think. You can open a bug to request this feature.
Several plugins will show their output there, LSPs, external tools etc.
If you’re dealing with a language server that’s not part of the defaults (ansible-language-server in my case) it’s useful to check for returned messages to spot potential issues that might not show up elsewhere.
I also just like to know what’s happening in the background, sometimes a formatter runs even if it shouldn’t or the wrong external tool gets triggered, and the answer is usually somewhere in the output.
I hope kate general was the right category for this.
