I’m trying to use Rapidweaver as a text editor for a special project and even that the html plugin works great I don’t like working with too much white around the code. Is there a way to change the colors? as with other html editors? thanks

@Albertkinng, I don’t think so, not even in 6.3.6GM, however, it would be a nice feature request for RapidWeaver 7, you can add your request [here](http://forums.realmacsoftware.com/t/what-would-you-like-to-see-in-rapidweaver-7/1047/225)

C’mon! The same XML file that give those codes color can be alter, right? Somebody can come up with a innocent hack to work around this need.

😂 I wish! Oh well… I can’t believe that option is not there by default. Seriously.
