Code Fold Ruler Color?

#1

I’m looking for a way to change the color of the “rulers” that appear under code folding points. You can see them faintly here:

Now keep in mine these are NOT the regular “ruler” lines you’ll find in the “Settings - Default” file. Sublime’s rulers go up and down the whole length of the document. These “fold rulers” appear at code fold points and disappear accordingly (for instance, between { } on different lines).

Basically, I want them to be more noticable. Is this possible?

Thanks!

You’ll want to modify your theme’s .tmTheme file. Look for something like the following code snippet at the top of the theme file.

        <key>activeGuide</key>
        <string>#FF0099AA</string>
        <key>stackGuide</key>
        <string>#FF9900AA</string>
      </dict>
    </dict>

Then add a key for activeGuide and stackGuide. The color values are in hex format with the last 2 digits (optional) representing the opacity of the color (00-FF).
