I have successfully created the boxes I want. I'm successfully adding data.

I cannot style the boxes. I just want to add a little padding within the boxes so I don't have to make a ton of size and position adjustments to the boxes.

THE ISSUE is that I get this error: attempt to call method 'setStyleSheet' (a nil value)

Here is the relevant part of the script:

Code: Select all

Comms = Geyser.MiniConsole:new({
  name="Comms",
  x=-390, y="50%",
  autoWrap = true,
  color = "white",
  scrollBar = false,
  fontSize = sidebarFontSize,
  width=390, height="50%",
})

Comms:setStyleSheet([[
  background-color: yellow;
]])

Is the issue that I'm making a miniConsole? If so how do I add padding?

Or is there an entirely different and better approach?

Ok, so that looks like the wrong approach. MiniConsoles are not stylable.

Can you put miniConsoles in containers like labels or other containers? If so, how?

Hey! Yeah, you can put miniconsoles in a container - same way like labels, specify the parent container as the last argument to :new().
