Editor Font Selection

Hi,  I have a few font setting questions:

1  I like to see alot of code at one time so I want to set my font to calibri 11 point.  My problem is that the code spacing seems to use the Line Number font, which I can’t change…

Is there a way to size down the font spacing?? (Yes I have manually set all the fonts from the Options / Fonts and Colors Tab)

  1. Corona SDK function colorization.   Is there a way to assign a color to corona SDK functions?

3.  Where do you set the main font for the ‘Inherit’ button?

Thanks and looking forward to learning your IDE!

Greg

To recap:

 - With all the functions Glider has, there is no easy way to change its base font and spacing in the Glider editor???

  • Why does Glider not have corona SDK function coloring when glider is being sold to Corona developers?

Hello Greg,

1  I like to see alot of code at one time so I want to set my font to calibri 11 point.  My problem is that the code spacing seems to use the Line Number font, which I can’t change… Is there a way to size down the font spacing??

I am not aware of a way to size down the font spacing. The system is optimized to use mono-spaced fonts.

  1. Corona SDK function colorization.   Is there a way to assign a color to corona SDK functions?

At this time there is no way to do this. We can push out an update to do this soon.

3.  Where do you set the main font for the ‘Inherit’ button?

You can use the “All languages” and “default” selection as shown here:

HI,

Thanks for information about the ‘Default’ setting.  That let me change the top level overall font and also changed the font spacing so that I can now see alot more code in the editor, just what I was looking for.

Hopefully you can get the corona functions list in Glide soon!
