rubyFeedback created an issue (geany/geany#4346)
Geany has the "Long line marker". This is a visual cue; I use it for primarily
knowing
when the 80 chars per limit I go over. (I sometimes go over it, in particular
via
comments, but also code, so I more use a flexible range between 80 to 100 on my
wide monitor, but by and large whenever possible I try to stay at exactly 80, so
this long line marker is very helpful and useful to me.)
With my bad eyesight though, I'd like that vertical bar to be a specific width
that
is a bit above the current one. It seems 1px right now, yes? Can we adjust this
to 2 or 3px? This could be a small-ish additional entry, defaulting to 1px,
and perhaps a spin-button allowing values down to 1px, and up to 5px. Not sure
if anyone were to need more than that; should probably just fix it at some value
for now, say, 3px or 5 px max, and if people really want more, they can do a
new issue request.
What would be the rationale for allowing this?
Well - my hope is that with a width of, say, 2px or 3px, it becomes visually
even
stronger to notice for me. Right now it is a fairly thin line; I can see it,
but I'd
love to have it a bit more wide. In CSS I typically use a border, such as:
border: 3px solid darkblue;
# and then also; border-radius: 12px; or something like that, but this makes
# no sense for the feature in geany, so I just suggest something like
# border: 3px solid darkblue. Actually it may be nice to use dotted too,
# but I don't want to complicate this request, so just width in px. The
# colour we can already customize via that colour-picker, I set it to
# darkblue on my light theme.
Thanks for reading.
