>From here <http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26505729/how-to-display-non-printable-symbols-in-qtextedit-pyqt4> I found a little snippet of code which makes tabs and spaces visible:
doc = QtGui.QTextDocument() option = QtGui.QTextOption() option.setFlags(QtGui.QTextOption.ShowTabsAndSpaces) doc.setDefaultTextOption(option) textEdit = QtGui.QTextEdit() textEdit.setDocument(doc) >From a different post <http://stackoverflow.com/questions/32147592/color-whitespace-and-paragraph-separators-in-qtextedit-with-qsyntaxhighlighter> (although it is a C++ example) it shows that a custom highlighter can be used to colorize these visible tabs and spaces. I have for a while wanted to make this change because the way Leo currently handles "invisibles" is too conspicuous to keep on all the time. I'm looking for some direction on how this might be integrated into Leo? Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
