Incompatibility with Semantic highlighting

Your programming languages

Java & Kotlin

Expected Behavior

Should be able to uncheck semantic highlighting and persist this setting after restart.

Current Behavior

When I uncheck the semantic highlighting (SH) with rainbow brackets (RB) enabled, after restarting Intellij the semantic highlighting appears checked again. If I disable RB and uncheck SH it remains unchecked after restarting IntelliJ.

you can disable Enable rainbow variable to disable the Semantic highlighting option

hi @Eminanza , sorry, I misunderstood your reply, please ignore it. for now, please if you want the “semantic highlighting” works, please make the option “Enable rainbow variables” checked.
