Make the selection box in the minimap more visible

[jacob-carlborg]

I think it's quite hard to actually see where the selection box is in the minimap.Perhaps adding options for selecting the color of the border of the selection box, the width of border and an overlay color that is transparent. Have a look at Sublime Text: http://www.sublimetext.com/

Hi,

This will not be possible with the plugin as it is working now. It works by calling TM native Draw() method, redirecting it into an external buffer instead of the main view. So it is only able to draw exactly the same image that you see in the main view.

The only practical help I can offer is: use another color scheme ;-)

Sorry that I cannot be of anymore help!

What I was referring to was the selection box in the minimap that has a blue-like color. The box that moves when you click in the minimap and does not exist in the regular window. It has the same color regardless of what color scheme I use.

Oh I see... I misunderstood you. This is actually relatively easy to implement, so I'll reopen this.

Maybe I'll find some time.

Greetings,

That would be great, thanks.
