      Hello all,
      is it possible to change symbols (or its font) used for whitespace highlighting?
      My problem is, that middle dot (which represent space) is so small that I have sometimes problem to notice it. I would like to have it bigger. And unlike text, it’s size doesn’t seem to change when zooming in.
      Thank you

        if you have a plugin installed, which could manipulate the scintilla editor,
        like python script, lua script, nppexec,… you could use the message
        SCI_SETWHITESPACESIZE(int size) to make it bigger.

        e.g editor.setWhitespaceSize(3) (python)

        Cheers
        Claudia
