Description: Feature request, be able to control the caret color and width in the code editor window so a dark background and hi-res monitors can be used. The file code_editor.xml contains the Scintilla coloring schema and it also contains three settings that are actually messages sent to scintilla: usetabs, tabwidth, indentation. It would be nice to have a caret_fore setting and a caret_width setting where the foreground color and the width for the caret could be set. How to repeat: Not a bug, a feature request Suggested fix: Add the following code to the code_editor.cpp file at line 655: else if (iterator->first == "caret_fore") { std::string value = iterator->second; Color color = Color::parse(value); int raw_color = (int)(255 * color.red) + ((int)(255 * color.green) << 8) + ((int)(255 * color.blue) << 16); _code_editor_impl->send_editor(this, SCI_SETCARETFORE, raw_color, 0); } else if (iterator->first == "caret_width") { int int_value = base::atoi<int>(iterator->second, 0); _code_editor_impl->send_editor(this, SCI_SETCARETWIDTH, int_value, 0); }
