Ident Guide
IDE: PhpStorm Light 2026.3 EAP (263.6949)
Installation method: Jetbrains Toolbox on Arch Linux installed via jetbrains-toolbox pkg.
I am using the default theme. I have set the Editor>Guides>Indent Guide color to a visible color (deep red).
Power saving mode is turned off.
i am using tabs for indentation, configured via .editorconfig. I have tried disabling/enabling editorconfig support & detect indentation. My editorconfig is the default laravel config with ident type set to ‘tab’.

Hello,
I was not able to reproduce this issue on my PhpStorm Light installation (`263.6949`):
Do you have any custom plugins by chance?
For instance, I can reproduce it with the Rainbow Brackets plugin.
the only plugin i had installed was the Tokyo Dark theme by Junk F. Actory. i had the theme & color scheme disabled. it shouldnt matter as i had the color set to bright red in color scheme anyway. this also happens on regular non-light phpstorm eap
Thank you for the update.
I have no idea how to reproduce it locally, sorry.
Would it be possible to collect & share logs (Help > Collect Logs)?
I doubt that I will find any direct clues there, but hopefully, an overall sight on the installation might help to understand where to dig.

Thanks, it helped!
Looking at:
The chances are high that you are experiencing the following issue:

According to the ticket's details, the fix should be available in the last 2026.3 EAP update (which is Beta now):
that worked! Thank you.
although, now whitespaces seem to not be working.
and enabling leading causes vertical lines to show up:
is this intended behavior?
Not sure if it is intended, never really thought about it, but it looks like tabs count as leading whitespaces.
It is the same for me, and whitespaces (like the one in string value) are rendered:
