If you are using [spacemacs ](https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs ), you can put this snippet in your `dotspacemacs/user-init` to override these colors:
2018-11-09 18:11:47 +00:00
```elisp
2017-01-25 05:30:31 +00:00
(custom-set-variables '(spacemacs-theme-custom-colors
'((act1 . "#ff0000")
(act2 . "#0000ff")
(base . "#ffffff"))))
```
This will override `act1` , `act1` and `base` to use the specified colors.

### Use a custom flycheck fringe bitmap
If you don't use spacemacs and want to get the same look of flycheck fringe bitmap, you can put the following snippet into your `init.el` (this assumes you are using `use-package` ):
```elisp
(use-package flycheck
:init
(progn
(define-fringe-bitmap 'my-flycheck-fringe-indicator
(vector #b00000000
#b00000000
#b00000000
#b00000000
#b00000000
#b00000000
#b00000000
#b00011100
#b00111110
#b00111110
#b00111110
#b00011100
#b00000000
#b00000000
#b00000000
#b00000000
#b00000000 ))
(flycheck-define-error-level 'error
:severity 2
:overlay-category 'flycheck-error-overlay
:fringe-bitmap 'my-flycheck-fringe-indicator
:fringe-face 'flycheck-fringe-error)
(flycheck-define-error-level 'warning
:severity 1
:overlay-category 'flycheck-warning-overlay
:fringe-bitmap 'my-flycheck-fringe-indicator
:fringe-face 'flycheck-fringe-warning)
(flycheck-define-error-level 'info
