Display opening bracket

(1/1)

Markstar:
Hi,
I just started using Code::Blocks and it seems to be a nice program. But one thing is bothering me very much right now:
When I enter an opening bracket (, { or [ , it is not displayed right away; only when I enter a second character.

Is there any way to disable this feature? I looked in the settings but couldn't find it.  :(

Thank you in advance!

Kind regards

I had a similar problem when I started with codeblocks, but it was only a problem of the colours set in syntax highlighting.

For fixing that, only go to "Settings->Editor...->Syntax highlighting", select the programing language and then the highlighting type that is going wrong for you, probably "Matching brace highlight" and change the background or the foreground colour.

Markstar:
Ahh, thank you for your answer! Your solution was perfect (except that it was "No maching brace highlight"), now back to coding.  :P

Cheers!
