    <p>
	The styler configurator is primarily used to control the appearance of the text in Notepad++, but it also allows you to tweak some of the other aspects that have a user configurable color.</p>
<p>
	<img alt="" src="../../../Images/Screenshots/styler_config.png" /></p>
<p>
	The styler configurator has two lists. The left list (<span class="label">Language</span>) contains all the languages that can be styled, as well as other items with some color setting:</p>
<ul>
<li>
		Global Styles: controls the user interface colors.</li>
<li>
		Search results: The text of the <a href="../searching/search-results.html">Search results window</a>.</li>
<li>
		DOS style: Highlighting text as if displayed on a command.vom/cmd.exe shell window.</li>
</ul>
<p>
	The list on the right (<span class="label">Style</span>) has all the configurable styles for the selected language.</p>
<p>
	For most languages it is straightforward what each property does, so only the global setup and the exceptions are mentioned here.</p>
<p>
	&nbsp;</p>
<dl>
<dt>
		Dialog options:</dt>
<dd>
		<span class="checkbox">Transparency</span> enable transparent dialog. The slider controls the amount of transparency. Note that transparency is only available on Windows 2000 and later.</dd>
<dt>
		Style themes:</dt>
<dd>
		A style theme is a complete collection of style properties (see below), foa all languages and global settings. At any given time, one theme is active, and you can change it at any time using the dropdown list at the top of the dialog. The list is read at startup from the themes\ configuration subfolder, but you can add to it later using the <span class="Menu">Preferences -&gt; Import -&gt; Import theme file(s)</span> command.</dd>
<dt>
		Style properties:</dt>
<dd>
		All styles have some properties assigned to them. Som styles have properties that others do not have, such as a background color. If a property is not available it is simply greyed out.
<dl>
<dt>
				Colors:</dt>
<dd>
				Clicking on the color box shows a popup with a few default colors. Clicking on those will change the color to that. Click <span class="button">More Colours...</span> to manually specify a color. Either color can be rightclicked upon, if enabled, to leave the color property &#39;blank&#39;. The style will then use the default color instead.
<ul>
<li>
						<span class="label">Foreground color</span>: The &#39;main&#39; color. For text this is the color of the characters.</li>
<li>
						<span class="label">Background color</span>: For text this is the background &#39;filler&#39; color.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>
						<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span class="label">Font Name</span>: The font to use when drawing the text. Leave blank to use the default. </span></li>
<li>
						<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span class="label">Font size</span>: Size of the font (in points) to use when drawing text. Leave blank to use the default. </span></li>
<li>
						<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span class="checkbox">Bold</span>: Check if you want to use bold text. </span></li>
<li>
						<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span class="checkbox">Italic</span>: Check if you want to use italic text. </span></li>
<li>
						<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span class="checkbox">Underline</span>: Check if you want to use underlined text. </span></li>
</ul>
</dd>
</dl>
</dd>
</dl>
<p>
	If a regular language is selected, two edit controls are shown:</p>
<ul>
<li>
		<span class="label">Default ext.</span>: default file extensions associated with this language. If a file is opened with that extension, Notepad++ will switch to that language.</li>
<li>
		<span class="label">User ext.</span>: user definable list of extensions (space separated).</li>
</ul>
<p>
	When a style is selected that has special keywords assigned to it, selecting that style will also display two extra edit controls:</p>
<ul>
<li>
		<span class="label">Default keywords</span>: These are the keywords used by default of the given language.</li>
<li>
		<span class="label">User Define keywords</span>: These are (space separated) keywords you can enter yourself to supplement the default ones. The style will then only be applied if a word in the text equals to the keywords (variations can occur depending on the language, because syntax can be different).</li>
</ul>
<p>
	&nbsp;</p>
<h3>
	Special languages:</h3>
<p>
	&nbsp;</p>
<h4>
	Global Styles: (default styles + user interface styles)</h4>

<p>
	&nbsp;</p>
<dl>
<dt>
		Global Override</dt>
<dd>
		This style can override every single other style, and has a few options beside the default style properties. Each checkbox below the default styling options specifies what global property to apply. If a property is blank the style will not be applied (however bold, italic and underline do globally disable those properties if unchecked but enabled).</dd>
