Pyqt4: how to add Margins in Qscintilla properly

Question

I want to make my margin look like this:-

and i have made like this till now:-

with the following code:-

self.setMarginType(1,Qsci.QsciScintilla.NumberMargin)
self.setMarginWidth(1,40)
self.setMarginsForegroundColor(QtGui.QColor(120, 128, 120))
self.setMarginLineNumbers(1,True)

Please tell is there any mistake in this code, and what code should be added to display markers or margin containing markers(like blue dots at right side of numbers.)

Answer 1

you should define the marker style before you use it. here is the code :

class SimplePythonEditor(QsciScintilla):
    CIRCLE_MARKER_NUM = 0
    ......
    def __init__(self, parent=None):
       super(SimplePythonEditor, self).__init__(parent)
       self.markerDefine(QsciScintilla.Circle,self.CIRCLE_MARKER_NUM)
       self.setMarkerBackgroundColor(QColor(66, 66, 255),self.CIRCLE_MARKER_NUM)
       ......

    def on_margin_clicked(self, nmargin, nline, modifiers):
        # Toggle marker for the line the margin was clicked on
        if self.markersAtLine(nline) != 0:
            self.markerDelete(nline, self.CIRCLE_MARKER_NUM)
        else:
            self.markerAdd(nline, self.CIRCLE_MARKER_NUM)
