change background color highlight for errors detected by pylint with ropevim and ropemode installed

Question

It changes the background to red, I can't read the text to correct the error!

How can I configure a different highlight? Does it have a setting?

Answer 1

Have you looked in the file of your colorscheme? You can look for these lines in your colorscheme file and change guibg=COLOR or ctermbg=COLOR where you see

hi Error        guibg=Firebrick2 guifg=White
hi ErrorMsg     guibg=Firebrick2 guifg=White

Answer 2

I e-mailed the author directly and he gave me a helpful response. The highlight pyflakes uses for errors is SpellBad. He also gave me a couple of examples which I will share:

highlight SpellBad term=reverse ctermbg=1

Or for gvim users:

if has("gui_running")
    highlight SpellBad term=underline gui=undercurl guisp=Orange
