Program settings - Syntax highlighting

A category called "Syntax Highlighting" allows you to customize the syntax highlighting in documents edited in Spider.

Coloring scheme settings

This window allows you to customize the individual coloring schemes to your own needs and preferences. To adjust the properties of a schema, select it from the list and then use the buttons on the right side of the list:

Features of the coloring scheme
Click to open the Highlighting Scheme Properties window for changing the settings of the coloring scheme selected from the list. It is possible to adjust the colors and text styles, as well as the file name extensions for which the highlighting scheme will be used by default and to assign the scheme to a group of highlighting schemes.

Set the scheme as the default
Click to select the schema data as the default for new documents.

After saving the document, the Spider will try to change the default coloring scheme to the one that best suits the given type of document. For this purpose, the file name extensions assigned to the coloring schemes and the name extension of a given document will be taken into account.

Edit coloring scheme
Click to open the'Highlighting scheme editor'. This tool allows you to create new and edit existing coloring schemes. Changes made with the 'Highlighting Scheme Editor' are irreversible, so it is recommended to save the changes in a new file while leaving the original scheme unchanged!

Always use the default scheme regardless of the extension
Check if you want the program to always apply only the default highlighting scheme to all documents opened and created, regardless of their extension and the highlighting scheme assigned to it in the list.

Display grouped schemes
If you enable this switch, the coloring schemes in the scheme list in the main window (on the mini button bar and in the editor's pop-up menu) of the program will be displayed grouped according to the types selected for the coloring schemes.
