change qm editor background and foreground

[Kevin]

i am trying to change the background and foreground colors in qm. i would prefer to have a dark background as its easier on the eyes .
i can change the background and foreground colors but any code shows the default style still.

Code:

Copy      Help

int h=id(2210 _hwndqm)
SendMessage h SCI.SCI_STYLESETBACK SCI.STYLE_DEFAULT 0x464646
SendMessage h SCI.SCI_STYLESETFORE SCI.STYLE_DEFAULT 0xC0C0C0
10
SendMessage h SCI.SCI_STYLERESETDEFAULT 0 0

  clear all is no help as i want to keep everything but the background and foreground colors


   
what am i missing?
in future qm versions would love to see the ability to fully style qm and create a vs dark theme for qm
