Python Code Node Syntax Highlighting: color change possible?

Is there a way to change the colors of the syntax highlighting? Overall I like it, but for training classes the commented lines are too dark. I want to change it to green =)

Hi @Thomas_Vogt

As far as I’m aware the syntax highlighter .xshd file is a built-in resource. The file below on github shows where this is done, but the file isn’t exposed from what I can see.
