How to turn off graying out unused usings?

Question

How (supposing it\'s even possible) to turn off the Visual Studio 2015 feature to gray out unused usings (usings in C#, Imports in VB) ?? I like all the other highlight / s

Answer 1

You can disable it on a project-by-project basis. Open your project references > Analyzers and turn off IDE0005. This will disable the 'visual cue' (grayed out hint) but you will still be able to select the quick action 'Remove unnecessary usings' if you put the cursor on one of these. Don't think it's possible to disable this (and you really shouldn't anyway).
