Customisation

You can tweak the rendering of form-feed indicators using your stylesheet:

@import "packages/form-feeds/styles/variables.less";

// Thicker border
@{ff-border} @{ff-selector}::before{
	border-top-width: 2px;
}

// Replace `^L` with a green `FF` when `placeholderStyle` is set to "caret"
@{ff-caret} @{ff-selector}::before{
	content: "FF";
	color: #0f0;
}
