Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=5205846 By: bwa324 How the heck do I change the background color? I have wasted hours Googling, looking in the preferences, etc. I see that 1.3.20 claims to have this rather obvious feature, but I cannot find it. I am running 1.3.20 on Fedora 8. With a white background, I cannot use pydev. :-( I don't care if there's a GUI or if I have to go edit a file to do this. ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=5205870 By: bwa324 Ah, finally found it in Prefs > General > Editors > Text Editors. Too bad the search box at the top of the screen doesn't point to this when searching for background. Not pydev's fault though. ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=5256615 By: wzinsmey Thanks for the post, I never would have found it. Color change was always very hard to find in Eclipse, and frustrating because settings are split into multiple places. ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=5374731 By: tim042849 I'm using pydev as a eclipse plugin on Kubuntu 7.10 I do not see a configuration path as bwa describes above. I can set colors for aptana/javascript as follows: Window->Preferences->Aptana->Editors->Javascript->Colors If I use this path: Window->Preferences->Pydev I see no references to colors. If I use this path: Window->Preferences->General->Editors->Text Editors, there are no references to colors. Currently comments in python files are pretty much unreadable. Any other ideas? thanks tim ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=5374865 By: tim042849 Hello Fabio: Thank you for the quick reply. Following your directions: (quote Fabio) Colors for code, strings, etc. are in window > preferences > pydev (/quot) On my setup, the top-level items under window > preferences > pydev are as follows: Builders, Code Completion, Code Folding, Code Style, Debug, Interactive Console, Interpreter - Python, Interpreter - Jython, Logging, pylint, pyunit, scripting pydev, task tags,typing Of those above, Completion, Code Style and Debug have lower-level items, but I don't see any item that gives me an action to change code syntax coloring. Sorry to be so dense.... regards Tim ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=5375351 By: tim042849 I do not understand. That is what I'm doing. I select _Window_ from the Top-Level Menu of the Eclipse SDK window. I then select _Preferences_ from the Drop-Down Menu. I then select _Pydev_ from the left side. The available items under this selection are as I stated above: """ Builders, Code Completion, Code Folding, Code Style, Debug, Interactive Console, Interpreter - Python, Interpreter - Jython, Logging, pylint, pyunit, scripting pydev, task tags,typing """ Again, I do not understand. ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=5376827 By: fabioz Take a look at: http://pydev.sourceforge.net/editor.html (selecting the pydev item itself should give you the choice to choose the colors on the right panel) Cheers, Fabio ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=5378277 By: tim042849 Hello Fabio: I am looking at that link now. I do not know how to invoke the screen that is depicted there. On my installation there is no top-level item in the Eclipse SDK menu bar called "Preferences". The top-level items when a python file is opened are: File, Edit, Navigate, Source, Refactoring, Search, Project, Run, Scripts, Window, Help There is a screen dump at: http://www.johnsons-web.com/demo/aptanascreen3.png Thank you for being so patient with me. I know that we can make this work, and with my eyesight, :-) I must be able to (at least) darken those comments! regards Tim ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=5378315 By: fabioz You should go from the toolbar: window > preferences (to open that dialog) and in the preferences dialog, select the 'pydev' item in the tree.

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=5378328 By: tim042849 And if I right - click in the Editor pane, I get a pop-up menu with "Preferences" as an item. If I choose it, I do get another Preferences Screen. You can see it at http://www.johnsons-web.com/demo/aptanascreen5.png and in my configuration, it looks nothing like the one at http://pydev.sourceforge.net/editor.html regards tim ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=5378355 By: fabioz Yes, if you use the right-click, it's not the same as doing window > preferences from the toolbar (that's an action added by the eclipse core plugin that should really not exist... that way it'll just show the preferences filtered for the text-editor).

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=5378754 By: tim042849 Oh I get it! When I clicked on "Pydev" in the Window->Preferences I _did not_ expect an action in the right pane and simply looked at the items below. I see it now, right in front of me. I was going too far. Here we have it... http://www.johnsons-web.com/demo/aptanascreen6.png Life is good. Pydev rocks.

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=5617672 By: timblacktu Ok, but after you set your colors in your python editor window, you probably want to make an analogous color change in all the other eclipse windows (PyDev Package Explorer, Outline, Console, etc...) I have only been able to successfully change the colors in the Console, via Window->Preferences->Run/Debug[+]->Console. However the others completely elude me. There are no (obvious) settings for these in Window->Preferences->General[+]->Appearance[+]->Colors and Fonts. I did notice that Window->Preferences->General[+]->Appearance[+]->Colors and Fonts[+]->View and Editor Folders has some settings that do affect the background colors of the active and inactive tabs (e.g. PyDev explorer and Outline). However there is no setting that affects the background color of the body of those tabs/windows. Please help me stop pulling my hair out.

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=5617768 By: timblacktu Another thing... does anyone know how to change the color of the "code folding" column? I changed the Text Editor background color to black but there is still a white column at the left which contains the code folding controls. I haven't been able to do anything about this except for turn off code folding. Any ideas?

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=5651829 By: fabioz Not really... aside from the syntax highlighting colors, I think all other colors are controlled by Eclipse itself, so, it might be worth asking in the forums at eclipse.org how to customize that.
