      This is correct, because these are defined as indicators with the roundbox style and therefore do not support changes to the foreground color of the text.

          not with standard functions of Npp, but yes, such a thing can be realized with a plugin. The fastest solution would probably be to use one of the existing scripting language plugins.
          Can I ask you what your actual goal is? Do you want it to be saved so that when you open a file that you colored in a previous session, those colors are still there? If so, then that’s not how Npp works. Npp is, normally, used with plain text data. So it is not really a replacement for existing software like MS Word etc…, meaning the formattings are not saved.

            @ekopalypse well thanks for taking time to anwser, and yes i wanted to make of npp a replacement for ms word, cause it is faster to exacute and its more customisable for a minimalist look.
