      In short:
      Is there a patch/module I can apply which will change the colour scheme to match that of Chrome Developer Tools?

      Detail:
      I use Chrome developer tools a lot, and in conjunction with Notepad++ they are brilliant. However - I prefer the Chrome theme much more than the color schemes that I can apply in NP++
      eg. All class names are orange when looking at the HTML in Chrome Dev Tools; When I import/write HTML in NP++ (and set the language to html or css or whatever I’m writing) they are a grey colour. When I use the style Configurator it doesn’t allow me to set that level of detail.

        @Scotty-Fitz ,

        You are correct. The codebase that Notepad++ uses for syntax highlighting HTML and related languages applies the same styling to all attributes, so it doesn’t treat the class attribute differently.

        There is an “EnhanceAnyLexer” plugin which can be installed from the Plugins Admin, and it will allow you to define a regex which will look for class="..." and style that text differently than other attributes.
