Improve object emphasis on key identification attributes #1

Open nicorikken opened 7 years ago

nicorikken commented 7 years ago

Up until now I've tried to put more emphasis on key traits of an object by coloring the property differently. Most importantly this would focus on the name and id attributes, which are mainly used for addressing objects. An initial try using bold syntax seems to be a nice improvement. screenshot from 2016-07-28 08-09-36

Downside: it does require a style to be included with the repo.

Having thought some more on it, I'd like to mainly use it for referral between definitions. So name, from, to, id, and maybe configurations should be highlighted explicitly.

Current WIP is to highlight objects inside other objects using bold attribute. This is intended for easier recognition of other objects involved in the definition. Example: screenshot from 2016-08-07 08-11-29
