Hi Karan,
This is painted by
com.intellij.openapi.fileEditor.impl.EditorEmptyTextPainter.There is no open API for changing this and it is not recommended to do this in a hacky way, as it is a core IDE feature and changing it could destroy user experience.What is your use case. Why do you want to change it?
