SublimeText encloses lines in white rectangles

Question

It\'s rather annoying and I can\'t seem to figure out why.

Answer 1

If you don't want to disable SublimeLinter completely, you can set Syntax Specific Preferences. Preferences -> Package Settings -> Sublime Linter -> Settings Syntax Specific User

The preferences is evaluated similar to CSS, it cascades. Think about the most user-specific, syntax-specific rules evaluated last.

E.g: I also do not like the white rectangle, so I opted for fills.

 {
  /*
        Selects the way the lines with errors or warnings are marked; "outline"
        (default) draws outline boxes around the lines, "fill" fills the lines
        with the outline color, and "none" disables all outline styles
        (useful if "sublimelinter_gutter_marks" is set).
    */
    "sublimelinter_mark_style" : "fill",

    /*
        If true, lines with errors or warnings will be filled in with the
        outline color.

        This setting is DEPRECATED and will be ignored in future
        versions. Use "sublimelinter_mark_style" instead. For backwards
        compatibility reasons, this setting overrides "sublimelinter_mark_style"
        if that one is set to "outline", but has no effect if it's set to "none".
    */
    "sublimelinter_fill_outlines": false,

    // If true, lines with errors or warnings will have a gutter mark.
    "sublimelinter_gutter_marks": false,

    // If true, the find next/previous error commands will wrap.
    "sublimelinter_wrap_find": false,
}
