Code indentation guides can be displayed with

Settings->Editor->General settings->Show indentation guides

However, the default guides are rather dark and can be distracting.

The patch (after an update) allows the user to modify the guides color/shading with

Settings->Editor->Syntax highlighting->Indentation guide->Foreground

For example, the indentation guides can be changed to a very unobtrusive light gray.
