After upgrading from Intellij 2022.2 to 2022.3 and trying to enable the "New UI":
then my solarized theme didn't seem to work as before. The "code window", terminal etc uses solarized, but other windows, such as the "project window", doesn't as you can see in this screenshot:
I've tried disabling the "New UI" again, but Solarized still won't be applied to all windows the way it previously used to. I've tried using both "Solarized Theme" (https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/14920-solarized-theme) and "Solarized Themes 4lex4" (https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/12784-solarized-themes).
Question: How do I get the solarized theme to work in all windows (preferably with the "New UI" if possible)?
The "Main Changes and Known Issues..." link says only to use the Light and Dark themes with the new UI to avoid issues like this.
The new Light and Dark color themes have improved contrast and a
consistent color palette.
Please use only these themes while working with the new UI. Other
themes might look misaligned and have unexpected colors.

I found the answer just as I asked the question 🤦♂️ If anyone else have the same problem, you should go to
Settings > Appearance & Behavior > Appearance
and select the solarized theme. Then all windows will use solarized.
I have a project opened in IntelliJ and Git is also enabled for the project. What is the issue I am facing is, according to the following image, the red "branch pane" is missing from IDE and the only thing I see is the green area.
And also I see the blue area instead of "Git" it is showing "Version Control". So I need to know how I can get the branch pane back like the attached image.
Your IntelliJ IDEA is too old, it does not have this feature. To show the branches pane you need at least IntelliJ IDEA version 2020.1.
I just downloaded the Complete version of IntelliJ,
I imported my settings from the community version.
I checked in the editor tab settings, nothing craz going on.
I tried changing the position but still it had issues...
But my editor tabs are not showing correctly, cany anyone help?
Ahh, this was fixed with an update to the Materials Plugin. Make sure to keep updated!
I'm using a dark theme in IntelliJ 14, the problem is that I have difficulties in distinguish the active tab, because its header's background is not different than the other tabs I have opened (or it is, but very little). I looked all over the place for a method to change the color of the active tab header's background, no luck so far.
Please help?
Please note that this setting has worked for IntelliJ 14 back then, but is no longer applicable for newer versions
Find the comments below for plugins as a great alternative (Material Theme UI, Active IntelliJ Tab Highlighter)
Although, if you are still using IntelliJ 14:
Under File \ Settings \ Appearance & Behavior \ File Colors,
turn off "Use in Editor Tabs", as test tabs background are
dark-green by default, which is similar to the dark-grey non-selected
tabs.
After that, optionally you can set the colors under:
File \ Settings \ Editor \ Colors & Fonts \ File Status
and change the Foreground color of "Modified" status.
Now it will highlight the modified files (in version control).
To me, the solution turned out to be a plugin implementation:
https://github.com/tobszarny/ActiveTabHighlighterPlugin
Feel free to fork it for alteration, or use as is. Now with color customization and with IntelliJ platform IDE's support, such as PhpStorm or RubyMine.
Now also in the plugins repository, for auto update whenever new version is made.
If you are using the latest intellij you can make this customisation through the menu, see the screenshot for the breadcrumb. This is from version: 2020.1.1 Ultimate Edition
The Material Theme UI allows additional settings
like color and thickness of the line below the active tab (pink in the screenshot)
Whilst this solution does not change the colour between tabs, it does change all tab colours so that you can distinguish it from the background tab bar, which in my case was enough. It may still help others.
I used File Colors. The image below shows what I did. Set scope to All and choose the Custom colour (white):
I am using Darcula theme with a background image (simple plain black image). I tried the excellent plugin suggested by Tomasz O. https://stackoverflow.com/users/2479048/tomasz-o, but it did not work. Later on, I realized that when I decreased the opacity of background image, I was actually able to distinguish the color change made by the plugin. I wonder why Android Studio does not provide a convenient setting for changing active tab header color. I'm on AS 3.4.2 already!
Intellij 2019.1 has options for customization.
Besides, it has new themes for different shades of color you can choose from.
Darcula and I are struggling to come to terms. Legibility is poor overall but some things I just have to change:
In this code completion suggestion menu, the selected item is not legible.
Where in the preferences or preferences XML file is the background color of the selected item text set?
You can find the option to change the color of the code auto completion window from the following place.
Open your settings > Editor > Color Scheme > General > Popups and Hints > Completion.
Note: you may also search for the keyword completion in the settings page to find the option fast.
Then adjust the background color and click apply.
You can check the screenshot for a visual reference.
I fixed this 3 days ago. http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-103104
Now it looks like this

I solved this probleme by downloading a new INTELLIJ THEME named Gradianto and it works nice,
Gradianto allows you to chose beetween 3 darcula theme once it's installed in your intellij, and all of this theme will highlight the selected item clearly with code completion.
Yous install the theme with :
IntellijIDEA --> Preferences --> Plugins --> And you search and install Gradianto theme
Here is the youtube tutoriel where i see it:

Hope that will help
Thanks
I got a nice answer to your question.
This is link : java - Changing the font colour in IDEA code-completion window - Stack Overflow
You just need unable this option :
[
Settings —— Editor —— Code Completion
—— Insert selected variant by typing dot , space ,etc .
]
No doubt of it , it works very well for me !
