Hi,
How to I change the "view whitespace" character in Geany. The default is too faint. I need a bolder dot. How could I do this?
see filetypes.common. There is a setting 'white_space' and it can change the foreground and background colour of shown whitespace. So you can give the dots a darker foreground colour. Unfortunately, you can't make them bold but maybe using a darker colour is enough. For details about filetypes.common, please read the documentation (http://www.geany.org/manual/current/index.html#filetype-definition-files). In case of further questions, don't hesitate to ask.
There does not seem to be hot keys or toolbar buttons for view whitespace or view line endings. I seem to have to go into the preferences to toggle on/off. Is there a way? I really need to toggle these from the edit window toolbar or hot key combinations.
For a toolbar button we would need an icon. If you have any suggestions, it could be easily added.
