"draw_shadows": false Fuck yes. I run into this as a (minor) problem all the time. Should be exposed by default. What a cool exercise in general.

Yah the work day before I did this I actually was using Sublime on a portrait monitor where the line length limit in our source guidelines fit at my font size, but since the shadow kicks in slightly before the line actually goes off screen, it created a shadow. So I was pleased to find that as well.

I don't understand what the 'shadow effect' is, I'm staring at my unmodified ST window, and am not sure what to look for. What I really want is to make ST3 sidebar menu look like it did in ST2!

  `draw_shadows` effects the shadow cast by the Sublime "minimap" -- the code shape outline on the right side of the window. You can see the effect of turning it off by comparing the right sides of the single pair of (before/after) screenshots in the article. before: http://thume.ca/assets/postassets/sublimesecrets/debug_render.png http://thume.ca/assets/postassets/sublimesecrets/debug_rende... after: http://thume.ca/assets/postassets/sublimesecrets/configs.png http://thume.ca/assets/postassets/sublimesecrets/configs.png

    Aha, the first thing I do in ST is turn off the minimap completely, so that explains that! Thanks!

  You need a file with a line longer than your window is wide. Then whichever side(s) of your window have content scrolled off the side of them will have a slight shadow effect on them. It's actually quite cool and I think indicative of the kind of polish present in Sublime but not other editors. But I can see some finding it annoying in some circumstances. Also, after discovering this I Googled it and saw that some other people mentioning it (no hits for the other settings) in connection to the Soda theme, so maybe if you are using that it might already be disabled? I'm not sure.
