will Proton touch my custom Atom stylesheet, or is there a way to customise that within .proton
?
(I'm new to Atom and Proton btw)
Proton does not touch your stylesheet
SPC f e s
will get you to your stylesheet
awesome, thank you
No problem. Keep in mind that it does overwrite your config.cson
unless you set ["proton.core.wipeUserConfigs" false]
in your .proton
file
Shouldn't be a problem for you since you're new to Atom
Yeah, I'm not touching any Atom config files, aiming to have a fully portable Proton config all in the .proton
file
but it's no problem to add the styles.css
to my dotfile repo too :simple_smile:
Yep, that's what I do 😄
If you want to check it out
oh nice
lots of options I didn't know about in here
Btw, my styles(win).less
file is just one I use on Windows because fonts suck on Windows.
my dotfiles repo is a bit of a mess atm as i'm trying out different editors but here's my current config https://github.com/kmoe/dotfiles/blob/master/.proton
I use it to keep track of themes I've tried - still haven't found one I like
going to have to write some CSS 😢
Another tip for finding a packages settings names. You can open up dev tools and type atom.packages.config.defaultSettings
to get a list of the default settings for all installed packages
I should probably write document that somewhere in the proton repo. 😛
awesome
my workflow is currently: set options in Atom GUI to my liking, look at generated config file, copy settings over to .proton
Ah, that's probably better :simple_smile:
As for themes, I've found it's beneficial to get accustomed to solarized-dark because it's available damn-near everywhere
I've yet to find an editor that doesn't support it
good point, I was spoilt for choice a bit with Sublime and went very custom
I need high contrast though
and most Atom themes are really low contrast
I can't read comments in the default theme!
Yeah, comments aren't quite as readable in solarized either
So now I'm trying to get rid of the file icons in the tab bar. I understand file-icons
is part of the core layer - is there a way of disabling it in my config?
You don't like file icons??
Let me look
So in atom there are ways to disable packages that are installed
Atom Settings -> Packages -> File Icons Then press the "Disable" button
Now to find if there's an option to do that in the .proton
file icons take up valuable horizontal space - I tend to have lots of tabs open at once...
thank you btw :simple_smile:
["core.disabledPackages" ["file-icons"]]
yes!!!!!
awesome
how did you find that option, btw? is it documented somewhere?
Oh, but you can just disable the file-icons on the tab
I tried that
so to just disable them on the tab, I would assume it would be ["file-icons.tabPaneIcon" false]
yeah, that didn't work for some reason
but it's pretty much perfect with the package disabled
I'm glad that option exists as proton would have been a bit inflexible without it
I opened dev-tools and typed atom.packages.config.defaultSettings
, browsed the core
structure and saw that there was a disabledPackages
array
That's one of the few settings that isn't available on the Core Settings
page of Atom, presumably because you disable them from the Packages
page
hmm, ["core.disabledPackages" ["file-icons"]]
seems to have broken my config
lines after that are getting ignored
oh no, it's just relative line numbers
You mean that the relative line numbers are being messed up? Mine still works with that line in my .proton
it seems I was wrong - other stuff does work. but I tried turning relative line numbers off and it seems to have no effect
I'm still investigating though
sorry for rubber-ducking 😛
No problem, I'm happy to help
Who created your github icon, btw?
it's from my previous job at Kahoot! (http://getkahoot.com) - they have an artist who does avatars of all the employees
they very kindly let me keep it after I left
unfortunately I don't have the artist's name
okay so I've found that if you reload Atom using SPC _ R
the core.disabledPackages
setting sometimes doesn't get applied
possibly happens for other settings too - trying to reproduce consistently
That's such a cool idea!
I've also noticed that after three or four reloads that way, I'm no longer able to go into sub-menus. I have to restart Atom entirely.
I've noticed the same thing when using the autoreload on save for proton
I've looked into this briefly, but not enough to figure anything out
