Ruler color customization

#1

Is it possible to customize the color of the ruler? It looks like it’s taking on the “foreground” color specified in the current theme, but that also controls other UI elements as well…

Same here, looking to customize the color and the pixel size for the rulers.
I’ve got 3 rulers, i.e. 80, 100 and 120 columns and it would be nicer to be able to customize it.

Iirc I managed to change ruler transparency once, but I don’t remember how. Probably alpha channel in foreground?

Regarding width, you can’t really do that directly, but the ruler positions accept floating point numbers, so you can do this:

Actual values highly dependant on your font size, I suppose.

With “3 rulers”, do you mean that you can activate more than one ruler at the same time?

Yes, you can have as many rulers active at the same time as you want. You can’t do that from the menu though, you need to set the ruler setting manually. Either in your preferences file or with this package: packagecontrol.io/packages/QuickRulers
