Description

Based on https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/447381/24770

The color for whitespace markers is currently hard-coded to Qt::lightGray (look for QT::lightGray in QDocumentLineHandle::draw()).

The color should be adaptable in order to allow full customization of the color scheme. I don't think it's feasible to reuse an existing format. Therefore, options are

  1. Create a separate format 'whitespace'.
  2. Or use mediumLightColor() on the text color to shade the whitespace marker.

I tend to go for 1).

TeXstudio: 2.12.10
