[wxPython-users] STC coloring

[Ben Kaplan]

Neither of those worked.

>From what I can tell, if I call stc.StartStyling before I try changing the style, the text I add flashes red before reverting to the lexer style. If I don't call StartStyling, then everything from the current styling position down appears red. Could StartStyling be adding another event handler for the style events?

The

are 
applied 
after 
I 
set

Is 
there 
any 
way 
to 
have 
the 
lexer 
ignore 
specific 
areas?

The 
Scintilla 
docs 
hint 
that 
it 
is 
possible 
to 
do 
custom 
styling 
in 
addition 
to 
the 
styling 
that 
a 
lexer 
does, 
but 
it 
doesn't 
give 
any 
details 
that 
I 
can 
see.  
You 
might 
try 
doing 
your 
custom 
styling 
in 
a 
delayed 
fashion 
(via 
wx.CallAfter 
or 
even 
EVT_IDLE) 
so 
it 
will 
be 
done 
after 
the 
lexer 
has 
processed 
that 
part 
of 
the 
text, 
and 
see 
if 
that 
takes 
care 
of 
it 
for 
you.
