How to turn off text highlighting/ variable usage counting in 2023a

When I select a variable, Matlab highlights all of the usages of that variable and counts how many there are.

How can I turn this feature off?

You can turn off the highlights by pressing "Ctrl + Shift + H".

But when you will do so, the message at bottom left will say - "xyz occurences of "variable" found (Ctrl + Shift + H to highlight)". So, just a heads up.

I don't think that the count feature can be turned off. The bar at the bottom does not seem to be customizable.

Thank you. I am having an issue when I highlight the index of a variable, Matlab hangs for 16 seconds. I thought turning this highlighting off would prevent matlab from highlighting and counting the variable index in 54,000 places thus prevent the hang but it did not work.

When i say index, I mean the "(Ti, Hi)" portion in somevariable(Ti, Hi).

This hang doesnt happen in 2019b

Yeah, as I highlighted above, that does not seem to be possible.

Does your PC have enough physical resources to run R2023a smoothly?
