Editing the layout of Rstudio - (inspect)

[Zarathustran]

I would like some changes to the rstudio normal layout and I know I can make changes using inspect and changing the CSS. However, this disappears everytime Rstudio restarts. Is there any way to make these changes permanent or any file I can edit externally to set this?

Thanks!

Yes, see "Making and Sharing Themes" here:

Using Themes in the RStudio IDE

You can make your own RStudio theme file (.rstheme); this file is plain text CSS that you can edit as you wish. Since the CSS in that file is applied to RStudio when your theme is applied, you can use it to make your CSS customizations permanent without altering any of RStudio's internal files.

Hope that does what you want!
