Can I Get Rid of the Foldcolumn?

[ilesm]

I've just started using this plugin for my Markdown notes and it seems nice, but I really dislike the behaviour where the foldcolumn is visible in normal mode but disappears in insert mode which makes my document constantly jump two or three columns left and right -- I find this jarring. I've tried all sorts of :set nofoldenable, :set foldcolumn=0, etc. to no effect and I think the plugin is turning those back on all the time. Or it's just a vim thing. In any case, I don't ever use folds and I would like to completely disable it if possible, or maybe force the foldcolumn to always be visible just so that it doesn't jump around. Any advice? (Neovim, in case that matters.)

I don't think this has to do with folds. I'm pretty sure you're referring to the statuscolumn / sign behavior.

Try adding the following option to your neovim options: vim.o.signcolumn = 'yes'.

Alternatively you can disable signs added by this plugin:

require('render-markdown').setup({
    sign = { enabled = false },
})

Yes, that fixes it... thanks for this!
