StyleScheme

Object Hierarchy:

Description:

[ CCode ( type_id = "gtk_source_style_scheme_get_type ()" ) ]
public sealed class StyleScheme : Object

Controls the appearance of [class@View].

StyleScheme contains all the text styles to be used in [class@View] and [class@Buffer]. For instance, it contains text styles for syntax highlighting, it may contain foreground and background color for non-highlighted text, color for the line numbers, current line highlighting, bracket matching, etc.

Style schemes are stored in XML files. The format of a scheme file is documented in the [style scheme reference](./style-reference.html).

The two style schemes with IDs "classic" and "tango" follow more closely the GTK theme (for example for the background color).
