Hi, you can disable it here:

and make sure two of these options not checked, then this plugin will keep your variables not touched.

Thanks for your reply!

I think this is a problem with your deactivate/uninstall hook (I am not accustomed to writing IDEA plugins, but I guess there is some kind of hook to clean things up):

After I have disabled your plugin, the Rainbow Variables reappear - even if I have configured everything as you proposed above.

Rainbow Variables even works after you disable the Semantic Highlighting option?

[habizzle]

Well, I just wanted to check and disabled the plugin again completely - this time the code colors did not switch back to the Rainbow Variables style...I don't know, what was different this time.

I am pretty sure, that I was experiencing some kind of bug when I disabled your plugin for the first 3 times and the code color changed back to the Rainbow Variables style (as described in first post) - but I am glad disabling worked now :).

So I keep this ticket open (as I think there is a bug) but my problem is resolved, so feel free to close.

Thanks for your support!
