Sorry to say that, but I'm really disappointed about the popup advertising another product. It breaks the flow of mind and It's really annoying, if not abusive. I'm going to uninstall the plugin if this won't be corrected.
Francesco, as I stated earlier in the comments, this is the first popup in 14 months of DevStyle, sent to our users because we strongly believe CodeMix will improve their Eclipse dev experience.
Now typically, a user would see the notification just once, but I realize (from our Twitter conversation) that you are seeing it far more frequently, and I agree this can be frustrating. We will be releasing an update in the next couple of days that will correct this behavior. Thank you for letting us know, and we appreciate your patience.

Thank you for your answer. I hope that the correction will aim to get rid of popups altogether. I don't think than an IDE could be considered a good place for this kind of notifications. It's disturbing, as we already struggle to avoid popups on web pages.
Rohith, do you have macOS's "Show scroll bars" setting set to "Always"? You can change it to "When scrolling" to resolve this issue. Do let us know if that does not fix it.
and I like the color of my Eclipse layout, much easier on the eyes. But after getting a popup pushing other products, I uninstalled. Sorry, I have no tolerance for this type of advertising. This should be listed in the product description and feels somewhat deceptive.

I imported the Solarized light color, it works for the syntax. But if I want to use its background color, I need to check background color in Devstyle setting. This will change the background color at the beginning. But it will change back to default(white/black) color if I change to a different program's window. I am using Eclipse Oxygen at mac High Sierra. Thanks!
Sorry that you're seeing a problem, Jun Zhao. I tried to replicate the problem, from your description and couldn't. Could you please raise the issue on our support forums? The support forum is here: https://www.genuitec.com/forums/topics/devstyle/theme-problems/
We'd need to know exactly what settings were used on the DevStyle preferences pages and how you imported the Solarized theme, as well as specific release information for eclipse Oxygen and DevStyle. Some screenshots of the problem would be a big help, too.
Thanks for your comment, Miki. It is much appreciated.

Thanks for the comments, Naveen. I'm glad you're enjoying the theme and the other DevStyle features. Unfortunately, the start-up quotes are not accessible by users. Sorry!
Thanks for making such an awesome theme experience free to the community. I hate the default dark theme Eclipse provides since not everything is properly dark and the icons look awful.
However, DevStyle cleanly replaces all icons and impart an excellent themed experience. I use it for C/C++ development. One suggestion I have is you could make the syntax coloring better. This is an area where the eclipse default dark theme does a good job. e.g. I manually set the color of function to be green for easy identification and skimming of the code. You can take cues from editors like Sublime text as well.
I really like this, however I have one problem with it: In my package explorer, some entries do not get styled. The font is black and the background white instead of the other way around, which makes working with the package explorer unpleasant.
Thanks for using Darkest Dark, Daniel. I'm glad you like it. Regarding your problem with Package Explorer, could you provide more information, as I don't see the same issue at my end? What is the OS, the version of eclipse and a screenshot would help. Is it a certain type of entry that is causing the problem (a certain project type or file type, for example)? For problem investigation, our support forums are probably a better platform for investigating. If you could use the forums, rather than this MarketPlace listing page, then that would be awesome, but we can help here too (though sometimes with more of a delay).

Using Windows, When a list is opened, (i.e. with CTRL+SHIFT+T) the first element in the list is always highlighted with a lightgray color that makes it impossible to read the underlaying white text. Please fix, I love everything else about this theme!!
Glad you like the theme, DB! Sorry about the bad color scheme though I don't see that when I tried with the Darkest Dark theme on Windows 10, here. In my case, the highlight is a medium gray, not a light gray. Can you please report this on our forum with a screenshot of the problem and a note to say which version of DevStyle you have installed (you can get this from Help>Installation Details, Installed Software tab) and what your theme settings are in the DevStyle>Color Themes preferences page? Apologies for the inconvenience.
I don't know why Devstyle always erases the formatting of SYNTAX COLORING settings.
Once you close your Eclipse, all the format setting in syntax coloring will be reset to a fixed normal style, like italic of static items, of bold for keywords.
No matter how I saved the configuration it didn't change. Even importing a preferences file(.epf) can't overwrite the format
It seems like happened only in Dark series theme, Light series theme works fine.(But every one dose need the Darkest Dark)
For all the users seeing this problem, note that the fix is in the new update which is available now. Please check for updates to get the latest release of DevStyle. New installs of DevStyle will not see this issue. Sorry to all who've seen the issue for the inconvenience and thanks for installing the plug-in.
Charles, sorry you're also hitting this problem. As I've mentioned here, the fix for this will be in the next release which is due quite soon (sorry, no definite schedule). In the meantime, the only workaround, which appears to work for some people, is to reinstall eclipse and the DevStyle plug-in.
Again, really sorry that you're seeing this but, hopefully, we'll sort it out soon.
Same here: kept getting "Given how DevStyle intercepts certain components of this IDE, it is recommended to restart now." message on start and IDE was super unstable (e.g., TreeViews showed wrong node labels).
Wasted half a day on this; ended up installing Eclipse from scratch.
Many apologies for your wasted time, Martin. We've been investigating this for some time but have been unable to replicate consistently (we managed replication once but it's unclear whether it's an identical situation). We continue to try to track down the cause but I'm glad you eventually managed to get round it with a re-install (though that, obvioiusly, shouldn't have been necessary). Can you please let us know whether this started to occur after updating to CI 11, or after some other event? Also, which version of eclipse were you using? That mlight help us establish a pattern.
Again, sorry that you had this experience and thanks for using DevStyle.
After upgrading DevStyle yesterday, I have also met this problem. When I start up Eclipse, It keeps telling me to restart with the message of "Given how DevStyle intercepts certain components of this IDE, it is recommended to restart now. Continue with restart?". Needs help.
Wang Guojin, sorry you're seeing this. We've had a small number of users report the same problem but had been unable to replicate it consistently, making it difficult to debug. However, we've recently been able to replicate it consistently and have fixed the bug internally. Hopefully, it will make the next update.

1. PHP file and open folder icons are the old icons.
2. How can I change workbench color to the black? Custom color 0,0,0 showing somthing like gray color. I also want to change tab border color to same as the workbench color.

I just experiences a couple of problems maybe you could improve.
I'm using Eclipse Oxigen 4.7.1a on Windows 10.
1. The icons have no difference when they are selected or not (i.e. the "Skip all Breackpoints" is exactly the same if selected or not. No borders no icon change, so I don't know if it is enabled).
2. When a list is opened, (i.e. with CTRL+SHIFT+T) the first element in the list is always highlighted with a lightgray color that makes hard to read the underlaying white text.
Thanks for the compliments Davide. I've done some checking on Oxygen and don't see the issues you mentioned. Could you provide us with more information, please? It would be better to deal with this on our support forum, if you can. We'd need to know the theme you're using (I checked with Darkest Dark) and whether you've altered any of the settings. Our DevStyle forums can be reached at https://www.genuitec.com/forums/topics/devstyle/
Dear Developer , I like the icon , Is`s beautiful. But I can not set a dark editor with a light workbench. Can you relieve the limit? Thank you very much for such a wonderful plug-in!
I'm afraid that editor themes optimized for a dark workspace theme cannot be imported with DevStyle. The only option you have is to use a classic eclipse theme and then import a dark editor theme as an epf file (using Filel>Import>General>Preferences). I'm afraid you you won't have DevStyle theme icons in this case.
I have raised an enhancement request to allow a dark editor theme with a light DevStyle theme but it may not be possible due to the optimizations DevStyle makes.
I have been having trouble getting Eclipse colors for everything just right with the Default Dark Theme. This utility fixed most of the issues. It isn't perfect but resolved the major ones I had. The only problem is that now Eclipse keeps crashing. I'm going to have to uninstall it.
Jake - we're glad you like the theme. We haven't had reports of the theme causing crashes - can you help us by telling us what OS you're on, and what distribution, exactly, of Eclipse you are using? Do you have any additional third party plugins installed?
I'm on Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, Service Pack 1.
Eclipse Oxygen.2 Release (4.7.2)
My Other plug-ins were all working for quite sometime with no crashes of Eclipse.
Other Plug-ins:
dev environment proprietary language tools (not public)
Oomph
Webclipse
emacs plus
I ended up leaving it installed because I like it and I figured out that I only end up seeing crashes after saving preferences. Not immediately afterward, but usually not long after.
In general I was trying to figure out what controlled the hover help text, which is being fed from a wiki. It's a very tough to read which background with very light gray text. I've worked around it by just highlighing all the popup text or launching the full wiki page.
I'm using the following settings in DevStyle
workbench Theme: Dark Gray (Darkest Dark)
Icon colors: Primary Colors
Editor Theme: Retta
Theme Background: unchecked
Force Colors: unchecked
Enable Breadcrumb: unchecked
Allow Oomph to track...: unchecked
Thanks for that. It may be that the proprietary plug-in is conflicting with something. We'd like to track this down but our standard support channels are a better place to do that. If possible, can you post to our DevStyle support forum at https://www.genuitec.com/forums/topics/devstyle/theme-problems/ or send an email to our ticket system (support at genuitec.com)? If you can clear the error log, then replicate the problem, please attach the eclipse error log to the forum post or your email (note that the error log can be exported to a text file from the error log view).
Sorry for the late reply, Kyle; looks like your comment only just got allowed through. We did have some technical issues at the time but they were quickly resolved. I hope you've been able to install DevStyle now. If you have problem, please report them on our forums at https://www.genuitec.com/forums/topics/devstyle/
So first of all, this is a very nice theme. There are however some elements that seem to have gone unnoticed (i.e. they are still bright). I'm using Eclipse Oxygen.2 64bit on Windows 10.
The border of the "quick access" search bar in the top-right of the UI is still near-white and visually pops out.
The "find" bar in the Task List view has the same issue as 1). Maybe they use the same widget in the background?
The Preferences menu has white separator lines (honestly I would drop them entirely they have always been ugly)
All plain buttons (e.g. Preferences "Apply" button) look awkward with their white border and hard corners, don't really fit in with the rest of the elegant theme. Also, focused buttons have a really weird double-outline (white from the button plus blue from the focus state).
The margins of the "tree view" in the Preferences window are off. The tree view has a darker background than the window, that would be fine but it doesn't cover all available space, creating strange-looking areas.
Group panes should use a darker outline, currently it's almost white.
Checkboxes could use some dark love, too.
Dropdown-menus have nice styling on the overlay that pops up, but the dropdown-button itself looks untouched compared to the regular eclipse theme.
Finally, I know that this is an odd question to ask, but could you include an option to keep the regular eclipse icons? They aren't perfect, but I'm just too used to them by now, I can't find anything without them.
Thanks for the comments, Alan. We're always looking to improve the theme and you make a lot of great points. I'll pass your comments on to the development team; I'm sure they'll take many or all of them on board.

Thanks for the compliments Davide. I've done some checking on Oxygen and don't see the issues you mentioned. Could you provide us with more information, please? It would be better to deal with this on our support forum, if you can. We'd need to know the theme you're using (I checked with Darkest Dark) and whether you've altered any of the settings.

Light workbench with dark editor
Submitted by xwangkbm on Thu, 2018-02-01 02:58
Dear Developer , I like the icon , Is`s beautiful. But I can not set a dark editor with a light workbench. Can you relieve the limit? Thank you very much for such a wonderful plug-in!

I'm afraid that editor themes optimized for a dark workspace theme cannot be imported with DevStyle. The only option you have is to use a classic eclipse theme and then import a dark editor theme as an epf file (using Filel>Import>General>Preferences). I'm afraid you you won't have DevStyle theme icons in this case.
I have raised an enhancement request to allow a dark editor theme with a light DevStyle theme but it may not be possible due to the optimizations DevStyle makes.
Looks Really Good; but crashes too often

I have been having trouble getting Eclipse colors for everything just right with the Default Dark Theme. This utility fixed most of the issues. It isn't perfect but resolved the major ones I had. The only problem is that now Eclipse keeps crashing. I'm going to have to uninstall it.

Jake - we're glad you like the theme. We haven't had reports of the theme causing crashes - can you help us by telling us what OS you're on, and what distribution, exactly, of Eclipse you are using? Do you have any additional third party plugins installed?

Submitted by jdugas on Fri, 2018-01-26 12:41
I'm on Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, Service Pack 1.
Eclipse Oxygen.2 Release (4.7.2)
My Other plug-ins were all working for quite sometime with no crashes of Eclipse.
Other Plug-ins:
I ended up leaving it installed because I like it and I figured out that I only end up seeing crashes after saving preferences. Not immediately afterward, but usually not long after.
In general I was trying to figure out what controlled the hover help text, which is being fed from a wiki. It's a very tough to read which background with very light gray text. I've worked around it by just highlighing all the popup text or launching the full wiki page.
I'm using the following settings in DevStyle
workbench Theme: Dark Gray (Darkest Dark)
Icon colors: Primary Colors
Editor Theme: Retta
Theme Background: unchecked
Force Colors: unchecked
Enable Breadcrumb: unchecked
Allow Oomph to track...: unchecked

Jake,
Thanks for that. It may be that the proprietary plug-in is conflicting with something. We'd like to track this down but our standard support channels are a better place to do that. If possible, can you post to our DevStyle support forum at https://www.genuitec.com/forums/topics/devstyle/theme-problems/ or send an email to our ticket system (support at genuitec.com)? If you can clear the error log, then replicate the problem, please attach the eclipse error log to the forum post or your email (note that the error log can be exported to a text file from the error log view).
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Sorry for the late reply, Kyle; looks like your comment only just got allowed through. We did have some technical issues at the time but they were quickly resolved. I hope you've been able to install DevStyle now. If you have problem, please report them on our forums at https://www.genuitec.com/forums/topics/devstyle/
Nice theme, with some minor issues
Submitted by alandarkworld on Thu, 2017-12-28 14:00
So first of all, this is a very nice theme. There are however some elements that seem to have gone unnoticed (i.e. they are still bright). I'm using Eclipse Oxygen.2 64bit on Windows 10.
Finally, I know that this is an odd question to ask, but could you include an option to keep the regular eclipse icons? They aren't perfect, but I'm just too used to them by now, I can't find anything without them.

Thanks for the comments, Alan. We're always looking to improve the theme and you make a lot of great points. I'll pass your comments on to the development team; I'm sure they'll take many or all of them on board.
Thanks again.
