Where is the option to disable IntelliJ's syntax highlighting?

I can't find the option on IntelliJ 2016.2, nor I can find anything via Google searches.

I just want to turn off syntax highlighting. Is it possible?

I found the way to easily disable syntax highlighting for the whole file. In the project inspector, right click the file and choose "Mark as Plain text" that will tell IntelJ to disable all language specific features. Very helpful, if you have a lot of errors/warnings and don't have time to figure out how to fix it, just disable it to save your eyes:)

You can go to Settings >> Editor >> Colors & Fonts. You have to create another Scheme or copy an existing one with the Save As button.

Then, you can edit your new Scheme with the different language category under Colors & Fonts. Now disable the hightlighting that you want.
