Eclipse Color Theme

You can make it work. Install the plugin in Eclipse using Marketplace (Help -> Eclipse Market place -> search Color Theme and click on the install of the select item of the results.

Now, download these xml files from my google drive ( h t t p s ://drive.google (dot) com/folderview?id=0B-AMLyxKCEq-YjVPeFpkT1AtYXM&usp=sharing ). On Eclipse go to Windows -> Preference -> Appearance -> Color Theme. In the bottom of the screen click on the ""IMPORT THEME"" and navigate to the files downloaded. Once you do that, select any of the imported themes and it will work.

I also shared many of those XML files with my name and the original XML theme name.

Enjoy!

I really like the plug in but it has not been available for a while. When is it going to be available again?

Eclipse color theme plugin settings are not saved in last few milestones versions of eclipse (Luna, Mars RC.. ), including latest official Mars. Where is actually problem? In Eclipse or plugin?

Installation was so easy, did it by dragging. Went to Window→Preferences→General→Appereance->Color Theme and selected a new theme. On apply or restart, the editor screen blips and comes back to the same theme I have. Any idea how can I get it working ?

Version Info:
Eclipse Java EE IDE for Web Developers.

Version: Kepler Service Release 2

I was really missing this feature in my eclipse installation. Thanks a lot for this plugin, it works like a charm.

Thanks

always a same error ...
Cannot satisfy dependency:
From: Eclipse Color Theme 0.13.0.201311210852 (com.github.eclipsecolortheme.feature.feature.group 0.13.0.201311210852)

I think it's a great plug-in but I can not try it

I really like this app. It makes it easier to see my code. Favorite is a dark theme, which is RecognEyes. As previous reviewer mentioned, you need to tweak the colors a bit in the Window->Preferences->General->Editor->TextEditors->Annotations -> Write Occurences / Occurences -> Change to Text from Highlighted to Box, or simply change the color to Bright Blue.

I started by a theme offered in the website, but had to change few things to make it right for C (dark theme).
Among few things needed to change the tooltip, Annotation (Make it box instead of highlight) , and inactive highlight color. Then I wanted to publish it in the website, but realized they do not get tweaked.

When i installed this plugin, changing tabs gets slower, about 2 seconds to load tab. Really irritating...

The plugin allows to change color scheme only in editor window.
The rest still hurt my eyes (Navigator, Package Explorer, consoles etc)
Pretty disappointing.

Now when I double click on a string in python source code
eclipse juno osx fails to select string as highlighted

This functionallity was missing from Eclipse for a long time. This plugin does the job and should be included by default in future eclipse releases.

This a much needed feature but i can't install it. When i drag the install icon onto my workspace it just pastes the url of installbutton.png.

Is there another way to install this?

It looks like the update site URL is not working with Eclipse 4.2 Juno. Does somebody can confirm?

I am so happy you made this plugin. It saved me a ton of time.

I like black background with colored text.

I would like the whole program to change with the theme someday, so all the tabs surrounding the editor have a black background.

Congratulation to the developer of this plugin, by now it's the 4th most downloaded plugin of the month, even more downloaded than other important plugins such as PyDev and Google Plugin!

IMHO this highlights the necessities of many developers and the importance of having light and dark color schemes directly supported by Eclipse.

This plugin is great! IMO, this should be integrated into Eclipse! Code highlighting themes aren't simply vanity, a nice theme makes it more pleasurable to read code thus makes me more productive.

A little issue: after installing this plugin and restarting Eclipse, then configuring a theme, restarting the editors does not suffice to apply the theme correctly. I had to restart Eclipse another time. Not a great deal, but the initial tweak before restarting had black on grey background, which scared me :)

Also, in C++ with a dark theme you might want to change the "General -> Annotations -> C/C++ Occurences" background color. Otherwise, you get unreadable light on light color on the currently selected keyword/definition. You might also want to change the backgrounds in "Preferences->C/C++->Editor->Appearance Color Options->Inactive Code Hightlight"

great idea and a very handy website to create and publish your own themes. Only thing I would like to see is the ability to add a theme per content type

You almost saved my life, and for sure you have saved my eyes! THIS IS THE BEST ECLIPSE PLUGIN EVER !!!!!
I have only a problem: now the debug output text appears in gray with a white background, so it's almost unreadable... I have taken a screenshot of it here (I'm using "oblivion" theme):

Could you fix that please? And if you could, please add more styles and support for Python/PyDev syntax in a next update. Thank you very much.

Great stuff on this plugin. I love the vibrant ink theme. There are still sometimes some color conflicts (dark on dark, light on light) on things like mark occurrences and the such that users will have to adjust to their liking. Otherwise, awesome and much needed. BIG THANKS!

Especially twilight-ish, the existing ones are to colorful for me :P. Anyway, I really love this, thanks.
