CURRENT LINE COLOR

Post by tim_crouse »

Is there a way other than the "current line highlight color" to define the font color of the current line?

In addition to defining the current line color is there a setting to define the current line maker in the left column to have a unique color?

I tried changing it in the Window Blue Whale XML file but there are five Windows Blue Whale XML files in the directory
Windows 10 Blue Whale #1.xml
Windows 10 Blue Whale #2.xml
Windows 10 Blue Whale #3.xml
Windows 10 Blue Whale.xml >> added edit here
Windows10 Blue Whale.xml >> added edit here

<!-- <LineHighlight color="536870911" backgroundcolor="6308925"/> -->
<LineHighlight color="16776960" backgroundcolor="6308925"/>

No luck with editing the theme file to get the current line color to change to yellow

Thanks in Advance

I believe that this setting relates to the color of top and bottom borders of the current line highlight; this line is displayed using the current highlighter.

None that I would know of (which means nothing :wink: ) but it seems like a good thing to have.

I guess these are related to color profiles, plus maybe some cruft.

Do you mean background of the current line? That can be easily changed at Environment > Themes > Customize... > Line highlight.
