-### 5.xxi. How can I change the borders for floating preview windows?
-
-Borders for floating preview windows are enabled by default. You can use the
-`g:ale_floating_window_border` setting to configure them.
-
-You could disable the border with an empty list.
-
-```vim
-let g:ale_floating_window_border = []
-```
-
-If the terminal supports Unicode, you might try setting the value like below, to
-make it look nicer.
-
-```vim
-let g:ale_floating_window_border = ['│', '─', '╭', '╮', '╯', '╰']
