StyleScheme#

class StyleScheme(**properties: Any)#

Superclasses: Object

Controls the appearance of View.

StyleScheme contains all the text styles to be used in View and 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.

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