I observed the following issues related to showing whitespace characters in V18:
- Newline do not seem to be represented
This is correct. Newlines are not represented because when the Editor loads the document, it internally converts the line separators to LF. It also attempts to auto detect the line separator currently being used in the file. When saving the file, the editor will write back the line separators as either all CRLF or LF. In the right-hand side of the status bar, the editor will show the current line separator it will use when saving the file. Because of this behavior, Show Whitespaces does not show newlines.
- Spaces are too small and represented in a very light grey (single pixel maybe). In addition the image doesn't enlarge with the font (the kerning is correct but the image remains 1 pixel).
I have observed this as well. The requested behavior is currently not supported by the editor. We'll evaluate the effort to do this & determine whether we can put it in v18 or not.

Verified in ADS 19 alpha 68 on Windows 8.1 and Ubuntu 16.04
Now on increasing editor font size, whitespace image size also increases.
