As you can see the colour of status bar and the title bar has turned to Reddish-Brown.
I haven't made any changes and it automatically got changed.
How to I bring it back to its DEFAULT MODE.
My settings.json file
Go to Preferences -> Color Theme and select one of the standard VS code themes (Dark, Dark+, Light, Light+).
Maybe you have the Window Colors extension installed? If so, try disabling it.
Are you using a workspace? If so, maybe there is a .vscode/settings.json file in the workspace containing the color settings?

I was using STS and decided to give it a try to the dark theme, but the color of the tooltip window, was black and the font also black hence impossible to read, so I restored the appearance to the default settings hoping that the tooltip window color would change as well but it didn't. I haven't found a way to customize the colors of it. Does anyone knows how to do that? Thanks in advance.

I've been changing thousands of different preferences on Eclipse and I still cannot change hover window background while debugging on Eclipse.
Here is a photo of the black background I want to change the color to: http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/7126/blackbackgrounds.png
Thanks in advance.
In Fedora 18 using KDE as desktop you have by default a oxygen-gtk for GTK applications.
You can also change the setting of this color under the following file:
/usr/share/themes/oxygen-gtk/gtk-2.0/kdeglobals
[Colors:Tooltip]
BackgroundNormal=
Hope this helps
Windows->Preferences.
Java->Editor->Appearance color options->Source hover background. I have check-box System default set and it is working fine for me.
For Fedora18 KDE, go to System Settings -> Application Appearance -> Color
Select the tab "Colors" and edit the entry "Tooltip Background"
If you're using gnome, change the system wide tooltip background color:
System > Preferences > Appearance
Theme > Customize…
Colors > Tooltips
(source)
I changed the background color that is visible when hovering code (to black). For example when you hover over a method, you see its signature in a box; I mean the background color of that box.
I want to rechange it but I don't find the property anywhere. Do you know which property it is?
(It should be a global property, because other boxes use the same background color, even the heap status box).
It might be too late. But I think you need to change this from your OS.
System->Preference->Appearance->Customise->Colors->Tooltips
solved my problem.
I am using Ubuntu 10.04.
Preferences -> Java -> Editor -> "Source hover background"?
Edit: OK, do you mean the tooltip type popup window? The background color of the View to show Javadoc can be set in Preferences "General -> Appearance -> Colrs and Fonts -> Javadoc view background" but if you mean a tooltip type popup then you might have to set this in your OS.
In KDE 11.10, System Settings->Application Appearance->Colors(on left)->Colors(tab)->Color Set->Tooltop->Normal Background. Mine was set to black, resulting in black on black in Eclipse.
If you want to change the colour of the hover over for a method that indicates you can click through to its declaration:
Preferences > General > Editors > Text Editors
There is a list of options in 'Appearance Color Options' in the right panel. Select the 'Hyperlink' option and change its colour.
In ubuntu (software center) find and Install GNOME Color Chooser application and set Tool Tip Background color (yellow). Set foreground color to black if you find color viewing problem on other tooltips.
Just go to:
Preferences -> Appearance
and choose a Theme other than GTK
There is no setting for this within Eclipse that works for all cases. You will have to set this on an OS level as recommended by several other answers and it will vary depending on your OS and desktop environment.
However, on some versions of Ubuntu (specifically 14.04), none of the methods mentioned in the answers so far work correctly.
In that case, refer to this this answer on AskUbuntu, which lists the files that need to be edited in order to change the tooltip foreground/background colors to black and white OS wide for the built-in themes. In addition to those, I had to edit one more file (gtk-main.css).
The files that need to be edited are:
/usr/share/themes/Ambiance/gtk-3.0/settings.ini
/usr/share/themes/Ambiance/gtk-3.0/gtk.css
/usr/share/themes/Ambiance/gtk-3.0/gtk-main.css
/usr/share/themes/Ambiance/gtk-2.0/gtkrc
Set all instances of tooltip bg colors to #ffffff (white) and tooltip bg colors to #000000 or any other color combination you like. If you use the Radiance (light) theme instead of the default Ambiance theme edit the files in the corresponding Radiance folder.
For me, no proposed solution did work.
I ended up adding the following to eclipse.ini:
--launcher.GTK_version
2
Preferences -> General -> Appearance -> Colors and Fonts -> Java -> Colored labels (or anything in here)
As you can see in the picture, I don't want the blue color suggestions. How do I change that?
Also I don't want that black color background.
You can use this guide to change the tooltip colours just for Eclipse, rather than changing them for the whole desktop environment.
Ach. Unfortunately that's pretty difficult. The background color of that pop-up is set by the operating system. It looks like you're running on Ubuntu with a darker theme. You have two choices:
Choose a different theme.
Live with the semi-illegible colors. If you click on the error marker on the left, it'll show up with a more tollerable black-on-white window.
Select "Change Desktop Background"
Select "Theme" from the tabs.
Click
"Customize"
Select "Colors" from the
tabs.
Change the "Background" of the
"Tooltips" as you like .
The change
will be visible at eclipse.
(On basis
of Ubuntu 10.10)
eclipse Preferences
-> General
-> Appereance
-> "Colors and Fonts"
-> Java
-> "Javadoc background"
go to sourcehover foreground and change the color
to windows
Click on Editor tab
you will see source hover background, parameter hint foreground change the color
Eclipse is a default, and a background color is white,
but many developers uses the dark color (black) and thinks whether it is used the letter color with white or green.
I can't find tools which the color template can change an editor color of Eclipse by a blow very much.
Do you know featured WEB sites.?
If get possible to choose dark color among a beginning like MIFES, makes me Happy
I don't fully understand your question but for changing Eclipse's editor background color just go to menu: Window > Preferences, and in the dialog go to General > Text Editors. In that form just select Background color from the list Appearance color options and use the color picker in the right to change it. For other formatting options go to General > Colors and Fonts in the same dialog.
NOTE: All these formatting changes are saved in your workspace if you create a new one it'll start with the default settings
As a very late follow-up (just found this via search), there is now Eclipse Color Theme, a plugin you can grab from the marketplace. It enables you to use color themes from various sites and load them directly.
They even got a few relatively close Netbeans-lookalikes (that's why I was looking for one).
If you mean "themes" as Netbeans has "Dark pastels" theme - then Eclipse currently doesn't have this feature.
In the newer version of eclipse, we have an option Switch to Theme...
This should resolve the issue.
