Unfortunately nobody has really written a "how to" for the styling system for the edit window works (you will notice I keep calling it "colour scheme" to avoid confusion with the GTK theme that applies outside the edit window). I can understand how it is confusing, I keep having to re-check it all the time too.
Its complicated because it has to do a complicated job, map styles to the many different lexical entities from all the 60+ programming languages Geany supports, but do it in a way that colour schemes can make changes when they are loaded. Its even more confusing because it has evolved over time, not been designed at once in a consistent way. As I said before, there are some changes in the git version that make the editing process more consistent. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/geany/issues/3514#issuecomment-1585641789 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
