SCI_SETLEXER does not work for me.

[Martin Rotter]

I use scintilla in my hobby qt project.

I created new ScintillaEdit instance in my qt project and call

setLexerLanguage("cpp");
clearDocumentStyle();

on it. But it just seems that no lexer gets "activated" at all. I see no syntax highlightinga nd no folding. When I call lexerLanguage() afterwards, I get "cpp" which is expected.

Am I missing anything obvious here?

Assign visual attributes, like colours, to styles.

So, yes, your suggestion helped me.
