@node Standard Faces
@subsection Standard Faces
This table lists all the standard faces and their uses. Most of them
are used for displaying certain parts of the frames or certain kinds of
text; you can control how those places look by customizing these faces.
@table @code
@item default
@kindex default @r{(face name)}
This face is used for ordinary text.
@item mode-line
@kindex mode-line @r{(face name)}
This face is used for the mode line of the selected window, and for
menu bars when toolkit menus are not used.
@item modeline
@kindex modeline @r{(face name)}
This is an alias for the @code{mode-line} face, for compatibility with
old Emacs versions.
@item mode-line-inactive
@kindex mode-line-inactive @r{(face name)}
This face is used for mode lines of non-selected windows.
This face inherits from @code{mode-line}, so changes
in that face affect all windows.
@item header-line
@kindex header-line @r{(face name)}
This face is used for the header lines of windows that have them.
@item menu
This face controls the display of menus, both their colors and their
font. (This works only on certain systems.)
@item fringe
@kindex fringe @r{(face name)}
This face controls the default colors of window fringes, the thin
areas on either side that are used to display continuation and
truncation glyphs. Other faces used to display bitmaps in the fringe
are implicitly merged with this face.
@item minibuffer-prompt
@kindex minibuffer-prompt @r{(face name)}
@vindex minibuffer-prompt-properties
This face is used for the text of minibuffer prompts. By default,
Emacs automatically adds this face to the value of
@code{minibuffer-prompt-properties}, which is a list of text
properties used to display the prompt text.
@item scroll-bar
@kindex scroll-bar @r{(face name)}
This face controls the colors for display of scroll bars.
@item tool-bar
@kindex tool-bar @r{(face name)}
This face is used for display of the tool bar, if any.
@item region
@kindex region @r{(face name)}
This face is used for highlighting the region in Transient Mark mode.
@item secondary-selection
@kindex secondary-selection @r{(face name)}
This face is used to show any secondary selection you have made.
@item highlight
@kindex highlight @r{(face name)}
This face is meant to be used for highlighting for various purposes.
@item mode-line-highlight
@kindex mode-line-highlight @r{(face name)}
This face is used for highlighting something on @code{mode-line} or
@code{header-line} for various purposes.
@item trailing-whitespace
@kindex trailing-whitespace @r{(face name)}
This face is used to display excess whitespace at the end of a line,
if @code{show-trailing-whitespace} is non-@code{nil}.
@item escape-glyph
@kindex escape-glyph @r{(face name)}
This face is used to display control characters and escape glyphs.
@end table
In contrast, these faces are provided to change the appearance of text
in specific ways. You can use them on specific text, when you want
the effects they produce.
@table @code
@item bold
@kindex bold @r{(face name)}
This face uses a bold font, if possible. It uses the bold variant of
the frame's font, if it has one. It's up to you to choose a default
font that has a bold variant, if you want to use one.
@item italic
@kindex italic @r{(face name)}
This face uses the italic variant of the frame's font, if it has one.
@item bold-italic
@kindex bold-italic @r{(face name)}
This face uses the bold italic variant of the frame's font, if it has
one.
@item underline
@kindex underline @r{(face name)}
This face underlines text.
@item fixed-pitch
@kindex fixed-pitch @r{(face name)}
This face forces use of a particular fixed-width font.
@item variable-pitch
@kindex variable-pitch @r{(face name)}
This face forces use of a particular variable-width font. It's
reasonable to customize this to use a different variable-width font, if
you like, but you should not make it a fixed-width font.
@item shadow
@kindex shadow @r{(face name)}
This face is used for making the text less noticeable than the
surrounding ordinary text.
@end table
@defvar show-trailing-whitespace
@tindex show-trailing-whitespace
If this variable is non-@code{nil}, Emacs uses the
@code{trailing-whitespace} face to display any spaces and tabs at the
end of a line.
