Customizing GCodeDisplay was created by phillc54

Is there a way to change colors, fonts, backgrounds etc. with stylesheets for the GCodeDisplay?

After playing around I managed to change the ScrollBars with a qss file but I couldn't change anything else.

I did manage to change some of the margin stuff from the handler file but I don't seem to be able to get any further.

This is what I did manage to do:

AFAIK there is no way to change colors of the actual editor with stylesheets.
There is not a lot of info on scintilla/Qscintilla.
The best reference links are in the gcode_editor.py file

I could add a hook to catch when the styling changes and call a function in the handler file so you can parce it and decide what to do.

I see you have now added the ability to style the gcodeDisplay via .qss file but none of them seem to apply to the line numbers in the left margin. The default black is hard to see with a dark background. Can this be added or should I set a lighter background? Thanks.

I think I could - I'll look into it.

ok pushed to master, here is the full deal - note background color setting has changed from previous:

Code:

EditorBase{
qproperty-styleColorBackground: lightblue;
qproperty-styleColor0: black;
qproperty-styleColor1: #000000; /* black */
qproperty-styleColor2: red;
qproperty-styleColor3: black;
qproperty-styleColor4: yellow;
qproperty-styleColorMarginText: White;
qproperty-styleColorMarginBackground: blue;
qproperty-styleFont0: "Times,12,-1,0,90,0,0,0,0,0";
qproperty-styleFont1: "Times,18,-1,0,90,1,0,0,0,0";
qproperty-styleFont2: "Times,12,-1,0,90,0,0,0,0,0";
qproperty-styleFont3: "Times,12,-1,0,90,0,0,0,0,0";
qproperty-styleFont4: "Times,12,-1,0,90,0,0,0,0,0";
qproperty-styleFontMargin: "Times,14,-1,0,90,0,0,0,0,0";
}
