ReText Themes

Configurations

ReText stores all of its configuration in a text file: ~/.config/ReText project/ReText.conf.
See the possible configuration options

You can change

• the theme of the window, using Qt stylesheets.
  Add appStyleSheet=/home/YOUR_USERNAME/.config/ReText project/YOUR_FILE.qss to the configuration file

  Example (retext.qss):

  QTextEdit {
    color: black;
    background-color: white;
  }
  

• the color scheme of the text editor, using a [ColorScheme] section in the configuration file

  Example (ReText.conf):

  [ColorScheme]
  htmlTags=green
  htmlSymbols=#ff8800
  htmlComments=#abc
  

• the color scheme of the preview, using CSS.
  Add styleSheet=/home/YOUR_USERNAME/.config/ReText project/YOUR_FILE.css
  and useWebKit=true to the configuration file

  Example (preview.css):

  body {
    color: black;
    background-color: white;
  }
  

Of course, don't forget to put the files in that directory, then restart ReText to see the changes.
