> 1) Make the margin a different colour to the editing screen sc.StyleSetBack(33,colour) > 2) Display a folding margin and manage folding This takes some work. Look at ScintillaEx.boo in the sciboo source, around line 400. You will have to catch notifications from the folding margin as well. > 3) Implement some form of auto-indenting ditto - you have to look for line feeds. >4) Show indentation guides >5) Optionally, show whitespace characters sc.IsIndentationGuides = true sc.ViewWhitespace = true >6) Be able to highlight lines This makes the cursor line a different colour. sc.CaretLineBack = colour To highlight lines arbitrarily, you create a marker with MarkerSymbol.background. >7) Know what all the different Style numbers are for. The scintilla documentation remains your best bet, it's all there. at the risk of plugging my own stuff once too many, have a look at the annotated ScintillaNET source in Sciboo: http://mysite.mweb.co.za/residents/sdonovan/sciboo.zip The methods and properties have comments inserted with the orginal Scintilla IDS, e.g the StyleSetFore() function has a comment SCI_STYLESETFORE, which you can use to look up in the regular Scintilla reference. steve d. -- This message is subject to the CSIR's copyright, terms and conditions and e-mail legal notice.
