I'm using ctags, which I installed in Ubuntu. When I autocomplete something in vim, the autocomplete text is white on a bright pink background. It's quite painful to look at. Is there a way to change these colors? I haven't found a way to do this, and none of the docs mention anything about theme or colors. Thanks!
I figured it out. You can change the color using:
:highlight Pmenu ctermbg=<color> ctermfg=<color>
Pmenu is PopupMenu, the menu tab-completion brings up. To format the currently selected item in the Pmenu, use PmenuSel.
ctermbg is the background color, and ctermfg is the foreground color. These can be named common color names such as red, green, blue, etc.
I set mine like this in vimrc:
hi Pemnu ctermbg=blue ctermfg=white
hi PmenuSel ctermbg=yellow ctermfg=black
Adding to the previous answer by 'mouche' for setting the colors for terminal vim, the following commands can be used to set the color of the pop-up menu for GVim:
:highlight Pmenu guibg=brown guifg=white
:highlight Pmenusel guibg=yellow guifg=black gui=bold

I have recently implemented a JFreeChart library in my program, but I struggle to change some of the colors of the text, so I can use it in my dark theme. The screenshot below highlights the labels I was not able to figure out how to change the color of.
I am using java swing library with the latest version of JFreeChart and JCommon
If there is any way of changing those colors to some brighter colors, I would be really glad.
Thanks everybody for their answers, I really appreciate any kind of help with this problem. This is the image showing which parts of the chart I want to change the color of the text.
Try setTickLabelPaint() on the Axis that you want.
See all Changing color of labels in JFreeChart.
I am using DB-Visualizer 9.2.10 and I want to change the border color of the editor but I don't see any border option to change. Below image shows the options colors and borders but in my pro version I don't see this option. Is there any other way to accomplish the same.
Thanks
You should be able to change the border by going to Tools -> Properties.
You can either select one of the predefined styles or specify a small image file to use for the border.
You should also be able to change it by going to Database -> Connections
I need to know the name of the package which provide the circle with a preview of the CSS color value in Atom,
can any one help
You're referring to Pigments.
The default is to highlight the color declaration with the color. The option to display color as a dot at the end of the line is called "Marker Type" (or, pigments.markerType).
See the doc page for more details.
If I may also add to this:
There is a newer package called Chromo available for atom.
Chromo will put color preview pills in the gutter for css colors similar to what you described and supports hex, rgb, rgba, and ansi color values at the moment.
I'm trying to set the colors of the menu items for the overflow menu. The unselected style works just fine, but the first item shows up pre-selected, which means I get white text with a white icon on a white background. I can make it legible by setting the text color to black, but I still lose the icon, and anyway, I don't want a white background. I'm setting these in the resource editor using the Command UIID, but it seems to be ignoring my settings for selected and/or pressed styles. Am I doing something wrong? Or is this a bug in the code? (I'm using a modified version of the Blue theme.)
In the illustration, I have set a padding of 1 mm top and bottom, and a margin of 0 all the way around.
Try setting the bgTransparency of the CommandFocus UIID to 0.
I really like the Dark Expression theme for the Visual Studio 2010 Color Theme Editor, apart from a few things here and there.
One example is that certain UI elements (such as e.g. Smart Tags) are almost unreadable because they have dark text on dark backgrounds.
I know that I can use the Customize Colors dialog(!) box to edit the colors, but how do I figure out which color to edit?
There's a lot of colors, and it's not very apparent which ones control which UI elements. Is there any way to figure that out?
you can snoop Visual Studio to find out more information about the colors used etc. With Snoop you can even change the colors and look at the results instantly!
So you can just read out wich color is used on wich place and then search the color by name.
