How to edit and save my theme?
-
Hello,
I am trying to find how to create my own theme. I would like to use one that is already in Notepad++ but make changes here. And then back it up somewhere for further use after reinstalling PC to put it into the new Notepad++ installation. Can someone give me a simple step-by-step guide how to make a copy of existing style and after making changes what file(s) to back up?
Thanks! -
- Copy
themes\original.xmltothemes\your.xml, and change the name inside the XML toYour Theme Name - Open Notepad++
- Settings > Style Configurator > Select Theme:
Your Theme Name - Use Style Configurator to edit your theme
- When you exit Notepad++, it will save your theme
You would then save a copy of
themes\your.xmland then put it on any new computer / new installation where you want that theme.(Clarification:
original.xml,your.xmlandYour Theme Nameare intended as placeholders: use reasonable values, not literally what I put.) - Copy
