Eclipse Neon 2 tool tip texts are in white and barely readable in Ubuntu 16.04

I did the fix given by kayahr in here long time ago and it worked fine. But now it is not working. As you can see in the attached image the texts in the tool tip are barely readable as the texts are in white colour and I couldn't find any place for setting the tool tip text color in Eclipse Peferences. I recently updated Ubuntu perhaps it may be the reason for this error. I tried gnome color chooser too but it also does not have a option to change the tool tip text color. How to fix it? Thanks in advance
Eclipse neon uses GTK+3 by default so refer this solution https://askubuntu.com/a/70665/112794 [Editing /usr/share/themes/Ambiance/gtk-2.0/gtkrc file is not required].
You can get your current by executing
gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme

Eclipse text render issue

I am using Eclipse Neon2 on Mac. Text in code editor has render problem and overlaps on scroll. When I select all the text (cmd+a) it re renders and solves the problem. But when I re scroll it overlaps again.
I couldn't find a solution on internet.
How can I solve this.
Please check the screenshot.
I think it is a bug in Eclipse 489383. There are plenty of similar issues were reported and closed as duplicated, but this one is still open and, as I understand, targeted for version 4.6. There is a simple workaround that has helped in some cases (in mine it did help): export GTK3=0 before starting eclipse.

Code overlay in Eclipse like in Sublime text editor [duplicate]

I wonder, if there is an Eclipse plugin for code birdview (preview, visualization, minimap, however it may be called)? I mean, when you see your code in a small preview window and may scroll using this window. Wait, I'll show you...
Like this. (See the column, where the white rectangle is).
Here is "Overview" plugin from a deleted by a mod answer that provides a minimap view.
(I don't see a reason for deletion, it's exactly what OP asked for).
I saw this question again today, and found someone working on such a plugin on github. I have no idea how far progressed this project is, but it may be worth checking out:

Hope this helps!
Minimap is now present in Eclipse starting version 4.9

The unreadable tool tip in eclipse [Windows]

As you can see the tip select is unreadable becase the font color is the same as the background color of the select field. I have no idea how to fix it. I found here the resolution for Linux only :( [Im using the windows 7]. I tried to reinstall the eclipse etc but nothing helped me.
Can someone tell me how fix it?
Whats more everything is good i mean readable when im using the white [classic] theme but i really prefer the dark theme i think its better for my eyes.
Thanks for help.
I founded that changing the composition from Windows setting may help me. But what is it possible to change only the one atribute [font or highlight color] without changing the whole composition? :/

Issue with editor highlighting in Eclipse

I have an issue after switching to running Ubuntu when developing instead of Windows.
When I ran Eclipse in Windows, I could find the software market thing and get good and easy-to-use color themes from there to install. Since I couldn't find anything of this on my Ubuntu version, I decided to edit it all manually.
Here is my issue: I was able to adjust the color of the 'mark occurrences'-function that highlights all the all the places where a code piece occurs, but my program does something else to the place where variables are first declared. I took a simple screen shot that displays the problem:
http://www.freeimagehosting.net/19e90
When I disable 'mark occurrences', the super-bright highlighting on variable declarations do not go away, so it's not part of the same setting. I also can't find where I change the color of this, because it's quite annoying not to be able to read what's written due to the coloring of that highlight.
Do you know how I can disable this extra-marking of declarations? Or at least change the color of it? I can't find anything when googling it, but maybe I'm just searching for the wrong things.
Thanks in advance and sorry for this very long post!
I would recommend installing a new version of Eclipse on Ubuntu.
I'm developing on Kubuntu and have no issues. Make sure you delete all previous settings before reinstalling. Default settings should have them enabled.
