PR #3150 <https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/pull/3150> fixes problems with `@color` and `@font` settings.
Apparently @font settings have not been working for a year or more. In that sense, the changes are minor. However, I have taken care not to require *any* changes to theme files. In that sense the changes could have had major consequences. *Changes to some @font settings* Imo there was no way to get everything to work properly without changing *some* aspect of @font settings. I'll omit the horrendous complications. The new code enforces (assumes) that @font settings *pertaining to syntax coloring* must have one of the forms: @font <tag> @font <language>.<tag> where <tag> is one of the *values* of the default_font_dict in leoColorizer.py. Some examples: @font comment1 @font rest.comment1 The body of such nodes should contain one or more settings. For example, for the @color rest.comment node: # Note: the default font size is 12. rest_comment1_family = None rest_comment1_size = 12pt rest_comment1_slant = italic rest_comment1_weight = None This is all documented in leoSettings.leo, where the context may be clearer. Note that settings whose values are None have no effect: they use reasonable, unsurprising defaults. *Summary* PR #3150 <https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/pull/3150> shouldn't *break* any existing settings, wherever they may be defined (in theme files, myLeoSettings.leo, etc.) @font settings *for syntax coloring* should have one of the forms: @font <tag> @font <language>.<tag> As always, these settings may appear in all the usual places. There should be no *need* to change theme files, but the new @font settings should work in theme files. Please test the new code and report any problems. I'll wait a few days before merging this PR into devel. Edward -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
