SB: This should be a guide explaning how to contribute to our documentation. Instead, this appears to be something that should be added to the docs as in "note to self, add this to the documentation later". Leaving as is for now.

Stylesheets

ENLIGHTEN allows users to customize the GUI look-and-feel to a degree. Appearance is governed by Cascading StyleSheets (CSS), which by default are stored in:

C:\Program Files\Wasatch Photonics\ENLIGHTEN\Enlighten\enlighten\assets\stylesheets\default

There are two ways to tweak ENLIGHTEN's appearance:

Edit the files in that directory directly. This will require administrator privileges, risk breaking something if you don't keep a backup, and doesn't support with multiple users on a shared PC (e.g. a classroom lab environment).
Run ENLIGHTEN with the –stylesheet-path option, pointing to a directory of your choosing. You should initially populate this directory with a copy of the contents from the default path listed above, then edit files within your own folder. If you wish to revert a change, just re-copy a file from the default path.
