Developing in Aptana 3 I get some whitespace colored brighter than the regular background, as if I have it selected. This is really annoying and makes it difficult to read the code.
Any thoughts on how to get rid of this?
Other themes provide this sort of white space reveal so it must be possible. Might try exporting one of the themes that does, peering into that export and seeing if you can reverse engineer.
Otherwise, grab a theme that does and tweak it to suit your needs.
Unless you've found another solution - this is a bit late.
Pick a different theme. Window > Preferences > Aptana Studio > Themes.

I have troubles finding settings for these two things, as I just want them removed.
I'm using WebStorm 2017.3 EAP, but afaik, this would be the same in the other IntelliJ products.
Both issues are on both themes, however the default theme, be bounding box is not as apparent.
The white bounding box that appears on matching words (around services in the screenshot. I just want it dimmed a bit.
This looks like this is only Material UI, but could be related settings.
Far right green border. It's there in some files not in others, and I can't figure out what it actually represents. Some times it's blue. I just want it removed.
Note: This is not the no the hard wrap guide line, as I removed that already.
I've really tried looking through all settings, but I think I might not be using the correct terminology.
Thank you on beforehand, this is driving me nuts.
Edit: Updated images and with default theme + material theme eap.
Edit: Solved problem number 1. It's `Editor -> Color Scheme -> General -> Code -> Identifier under caret
I don't know, it may be off topic question. I am using Darcula theme in PhpStorm. I need to add more contrast (darker background, brighter text) in PhpStorm.
I googled a lot but I could not find appropriate answer for changing that. Is there any way to do that?
While this post is dated, searching for an answer to what I believe to be a similar problem brought me here. In my case I could not easily read the line numbers on my display. The contrast was too weak.
I will answer this with the steps I took as it may help others who stumble onto this:
To configure it I opened Settings/Preferences dialog, and under the Editor node, clicked Colors & Fonts and then the General section. In this section I was able to find Code => Line number (in my case). In the case of the OP the section will be Text => Default text.
There you can change the colors and contrast directly to your liking.
#Dom: Thx for your answer. It helped me to enhance the contrast.
In the IntelliJ IDEA 2018 Version you can find this under:
File > Settings > Editor > Color Scheme > General
From there choose:
Text > Default Text
I can change the indentation guide line colour as shown in this image (the green lines):
I'd like to have the colour be different per indentation level, to help with code inspection and reading. Similar to this poor edit. Alternatively if it was per scope that'd be even better, i.e. the 2 for loops at the same indenation level would have different colour indentation lines.
Anybody know if this is possible in IntelliJ/Android Studio?
Thanks!
The color of the vertical indent guide can be changed in IntelliJ IDEA when you go to Preferences > Editor > Colors & Fonts > General, then select the list item “Vertical indent guide”. See this Screenshot. Tested on Mac OS X with IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate 14.1.4.

Is there a text editor that will let me shade certain code blocks with specific colors so I can easily find them later? Bookmarks are great, but I also wanted to shade with the same color all code blocks which are somehow related to each other.
and
When my current text editors autocreate curly braces or parentheses for me and I type what I want in between them, are there any that let me either jump to the end of the line to put a semicolon there, or "return" to type the next line, or do I always have to use the arrow key to get out of the curly braces? Perhaps there is a shortcut I'm missing?
I think about every code editor, including Notepad++, has bookmarks. If you're looking for a more complete IDE, it probably depends on the language you're using. For .NET languages that is Visual Studio, but you probably would have known that. For PHP, Javascript and HTML/CSS, you can use Netbeans for PHP. Netbeans is also available for Java. It is a rich editor, and I think one of the best free general purpose IDE's available.
Marking pieces of code in colors is unknown to me. I've never seen an editor that supports this. You would also need a project in which to store the start and end points of these blocks, unless you would save them as comments or so in the file itself.
Visual Studio knows regions which you can define by a start tag and an end tag. You can collapse and unfold an entire region at once, making it quite easy to navigate through larger files.
But these regions are actually part of the code file, so you cannot use this for any file, because those region markers will probably make the file invalid.
I'm still wondering why any other shortcut key would be easier or more convenient than 'arrow down'..
I am customizing a NetBeans themes to find set up the right colour balance for my eyes.
I would like to change the colour of the default PHP functions in the suggestion (auto-complete box) to something different as I find the dark blue is hard to read.
I haven't had much like finding the name of the property to do so.
To explain further. I know where to change the colours. I just can't find this particular one.
Tools > Options > Fonts & Colours.
I am using 7.4 nightly build version (2013-06-19_17-09-51/ that I got here: http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/nightly/)
I have changed my look & feel and using Dark Metal theme for the Tool itself.
(Tools > Options > Misc. > Windows (tab)
If I find the answer myself, I'll post it here.
Thanks!
edit:
It seems like it's not actually the Fonts&Colour theme that sets the colour.
Changing the theme from my custom one to e.g. Desert theme doesnt change the colour of the auto-completion box. So I was looking at the wrong place... nevertheless, I would still like to change the default colour of the text depicted below.
If anyone knows how, please share! :)
It turns out that this is a bug.
I asked about the same issue on the NetBeans forum and got a reply.
