I wanted to reply your last thread. But it was closed.
I felt so... I absolutely donot know what scintella is, nor do I want to! I need to resume my work.. so I hope someone undertakes my request!
FYI, wxScintilla (A derivative of Scintilla) is one of the core components of Code::Blocks (C::B). This is
NOT Developed or Maintained by C::B team. We'll take up and fix a problem, iff the problem is in implementation of wxScintilla in C::B. We're not bothered about fixing any bugs or adding any new features in Scintilla or wxScintilla. It's beyond our scope.
So if you don't want to understand the problem and just yell on us that it sucks!!, any moderator will close your threads as the threads are very aggressive in nature.
Personally, i only look at the minus/plus sign; it is enough. The black lines are an annoyance; in fact, they are one of the reasons why i use another IDE (2 in fact) in parallel with CB, because they have not these lines.
Most commercial editors (MSVC, Borland Editors) do not use Scintilla and it could be one of the reasons that you don't see them.
If you are talking about wxDevC++, it's not using Scintilla (AFAIK). They use JVCL.
1) Do you really like the DARK BLACK lines after folded blocks, Aren't they distracting?
2) Can really focus on what you do?
3) Doesn't it make the interface cluttery?
To sum up, AFAIK, it's a problem in Scintilla. There's no such easily accessible function which can allow us to change it easily. So if it really bothers you, do the following.
1. First,
request Scintilla team to add this feature in their upcoming releases.
2. Once they add it, then make a
request to wxScintilla team to update their release.
3. After wxScintilla has been updated, put a post here.
Try some other Scintilla based Text Editors and IDE, the behaviour would be same; you'll see the black lines.
