Configurable appearance of code editor

Post by Rado1 »

I would really appreciate the possibility to configure font and colors of syntax highlighting used in code editor.

This feature would fix the current problem with "invisible" keywords in dark ZGE skins and also would allow to override, sometimes incorrect, settings of Windows themes, which cannot be changed by ordinary users.

Hi Rado,

Being able to override the code editor colors would be nice yes ( even when the following will be resolved ).

However, keep in mind that the current behavior is directly related to the "Code editor uses always native scrollbars" bug you mentioned in your post. Once that problem is fixed, the code editor ( just like the scroll-bars ) should use the colors as defined in the used skin.

This would also be fine if skins provide visible colors. But setting of font (typeface, size, ...) can be provided independently on used skins. My personal preference is, eg., to use larger fonts for editors than normal.
