Syntax highlight edit

Hi,
In Options>Interface>Themes/Colors I see I can edit the colors of Elements, but where do I edit the syntax highlight colors please?

Thanks,
Jozsef

In each lexer's properties. In the "Lexer props" dialog for each lexer. "Styles" tab.
CudaText is better: it has themes, and no need to open "lex props" dialog.

Thank you. Great!
CudaText is good but SynWrite is faster on older systems it seems to me, and SynWrite got Total Commander plugin as well.
Another thing I like about SynWrite is that Search Bar on top. It jumps to the result as I type! That's great, I like that

Best,
Jozsef

- Cudatext loads big files faster
- on totalcmd.net see plugin CudaLister - based on Cudatext
- search bar - you can write a plugin.

Alright. I will look at it again then.
What would be the main reason to have two different editors? I see CudaText is more often updated though.

Is there some repository with plugins? Maybe somebody wrote the plugin for instant search already

Thanks,
Jozsef

Main reason: outdated and not nice Synwrite engine, not mine, i cannot change it.
+Cross platform

Yes, Plugins/ AddonManager menu in CudaText.

Plugins part of the menu is grayed out here. Can't do anything with it.
What happened?

I attached the screenshot.
