I'm using confluence from atlassian and I need a way to modify the text size, family, and color by using a user macro. I defined my macro as follows:
## #param 0:title=forecolor|type=string|desc=Text foreground color. Enter colors such as: red / blue / green / etc.
## #param 1:title=backcolor|type=string|desc=Text background color. Enter colors such as: red / blue / green / etc.
## #param 2:title=size|type=string|desc=Enter size in px, for example, 20px.
## #param 3:title=family|type=string|desc=Enter the font family (listing can be found here: http://www.w3.org/Style/Examples/007/fonts.en.html) (example: serif).
<span style="color: $param0; background-color: $param1; font-size: $param2; font-family: $param3;">$body</span>
Now the user can choose this macro 'Stylish' as such:
However confluence automatically adds a new line tag with content I want to appear next to it. Assume I had the text:
The brown fox jumped over the cow.
And I wanted to set the background color of the word fox as red and its forecolor to yellow. If I apply this macro to that word I end up with something like this:
So it automatically puts a new line in on the word that has the macro assigned to it. I want to keep it inline the entire sentence and apply the formatting to a single word. Even If I select inline in the options it still puts it in a new line.
The result comes out to this:
Here is a screen shot in edit mode:
I have selected it inline, and published the page still the result shows the brown on one line fox on another line and finally jumped over the cow on yet another line. Atlassian Confluence 5.4.4 This macro should work like the <span> tag so that the item doesn't appear as a block style element.
There is no good way of doing this. There's a JIRA issue you can track: CONF-15860.

My team wants to highlight a certain word by using a yellow background, as a reminder that this value needs to be edited manually.
Desired result:
I try to make this happen (inspired by this answer). I format a line of text in my reference text as Times New roman with font size 12, with bold text and a yellow background. I then save the format as a "character"-type style and I save it under "boldyellow" in order to avoid underscores.
In my r markdown document I write:
<span custom-style=“boldyellow”>SKRIV IN ANTAL</span> av **21** regioner moretext moretext.
With no obvious result:
Am I missing one or more steps I haven't tought of? Is this possible at all using this method?
I write content in VSC and I use handlebars to write content.
{{#jan}} Hello my name is Tony {{else}} Hi my name is Bob {{/if}}
Is there any way I can get the content inside the {{}} to highlight something like bright yellow? when I have loads of these in the docs, its hard to spot them when scrolling.
I've tried messing around with the workspace settings.js file but have had no luck. Thanks
The title of your question asks how to change the color of the brackets themselves, while the body asks for how to change the content in the middle.
here's a solution for the title part: the extension bracket pair colorizer will give you full control over curly brace colors. by default, it colors nested braces differently, but as per its documentation, you can configure it however you want. so if you choose only one brace color, they can both be yellow or whatever color you want

I'm converting some documentation from HTML to github-flavored markdown. I have lots of reddish/pink warning boxes in the old documentation.
e.g.
div.warnbox { background-color:#fcc; border-left: 3px solid #f00; }
~~~~~~
<div class="warnbox">
If you pass null as a parameter the world will end.
</div>
Is there any way to do something similar in (github) markdown? So far I've been using quote boxes which don't come in assertive red:
> If you pass null as a parameter the world will end
I also saw an interesting solution where someone suggested using diff syntax code blocks:
```diff
- If you pass null as a parameter the world will end
```
But that has multiple problems (gray outline, fixed width font, '-' at the beginning of the line, etc)
Is there any way (even if hacky like the diff thing) to do this?
Changing colour is not possible at this time.
If you want to create info or warning boxes, you can do so as of May 2022.
You can use the accessible note or warning blockquote in Markdown
Input:
> **Note**
> This is a note
> **Warning**
> This is a warning

You can create color text or background in a GitHub markdown file by using diff, to create red and green colors, as in the example:
+ Green Text
- Red Text
Where GitHub markdown file does not support color, even though HTML.
In the picture below how can I
change the color of comments between /** and */ ( entire thing including *)
remove that single black space that I marked in red (before */)
1) Look on the appropriate Syntax Coloring preference page.
2) It's part of the vertical ruler, space reserved for the folding controls.
In Visio 2013, I have a connector that is in a container that has a gray background color. I successfully changed the background color of the text block by following these steps:
Double-click the connector
Expand the font options by clicking on the icon in the lower-right portion of the 'Home > Font' ribbon area
Click on 'Text Block' tab in the 'Text' dialog
Select 'Solid color' and choose the background color that matches the gray container background color
That works as expected - my text background color is no longer the default white; it now matches the background color of the container.
However, I want to add spacing to the left and right of the text. I tried increasing the margins in the same 'Text Block' tab of the 'Text' dialog mentioned above. This increased the margins but did not extend the background color of the text. A also tried manually adding spaces to the left and right of the text. The leading spaces worked, but the trailing spaces where truncated. Is there any way to add left and right padding to the text (similar to css padding)?
Modifying the text block location/size may give you what you want, combined with text margins.
To modify the text block location, you have to click the text block tool, which is on a dropdown with the text tool (at least in Visio 2003).
I know this is an old question, but I had the same question myself and wasn't able to (quickly) find an answer out there either. I finally hit upon a trick that'll get the result we're looking for:
Instead of spaces, add leading and trailing characters to the longest line in the text box. (I use ".")
Change the color of ONLY those added characters so it matches the text box's background.
The text box's background reaches to the furthest edge of the text within, and we're just using that to get what we want. Since it's just moving the edge indirectly, I consider it a "trick" that we can use instead of a "fix".
Quick list of Cons:
The text box background color has to be solid, or close to it.
The "invisible" text will still exist, so it'll show up in a copy/paste of the text.
Similarly, it may make Searching/CTRL+F for things within the document/file more difficult.
You can use No-Break Space. Insert it from Insert > Symbol.
