Star sign in Eclipse code recommender - eclipse

I did not notice in the previous version of Eclipse but in Eclipse Mars, there is a small yellow star sign left to the recommended thing.
What is the meaning of it?

Both the star and the percentage are added by the Intelligent Code Completion.
Follow this Link for more http://www.eclipse.org/recommenders/manual/#intelligent-code-completion
These suggestions are based on context and code analysis (data mined) of similar situations. The percentage is presumably an indication for the confidence of that suggestion.
Protected methods are in fact indicated by a yellow diamond with rounded corners, similar to the icon in the outline view.

Green and Red arrows with numbers beside in Pycharm code completion window

There are some green upside arrows and red downside arrows with some numbers beside them in code completion window in Pycharm 2020.
I really don't have any clue what these arrows and numbers stand for.
You can see a sample of it in below image.
What is the meaning of the arrows and numbers?
Any help would be appreciated.
I've figured out this option is related to Machine Learning Code Completion plugin that is bundled with pycharm and is available via Settings>Editor>General>Code Completion>Machine Learning-Assisted Completion>Rank completion suggestions based on Machine Learning.
And this numbers are some sort of ranking.
Plugin doc says:
The plugin improves code completion feature by reordering of elements in the completion popup by ranking more relevant items higher using machine learning.
Those green ↑ or red ↓ has similar meaning as arrows used in foreign exchange rates:
but instead of rise / drop in the rate, they show rise / drop in applying them to your code, and – consequently – the change of their position in the completion popup.

Sigasi Eclipse "Codometer" half hidden

I'm using a Sigasi eclipse plug in to program and simulate VHDL through Eclipse. However, at present I'n only using the free version, which supports projects up to a certain size. This size is handily indicated by a provided "codometer" widget in the bottom left hand corner - however, its half hidden and a lot of the time unreadable - see picture!
Despite using the drag bar to move it around - I only ever see half of the number and I can't read it well enough to see how much space I have - is there a setting in Eclipse or Sigasi to fix this ? It doesn't cause any problems itself but has become very irritating!
Thanks,
David
(If anybody else ever has this problem)
Not a complete solution to this (despite spending several hours going through Eclipse settings!), but as an intermediary, I found by chance that if you hover your mouse over the partially displayed widget it gives a breakdown of how much space you have used out of your 32kB project size limit - as shown below.

Subclipse: What is the green bar icon on the top right for?

do you know the meaning behind the green bar icon (5th icon in the image behind the link)? I think it is in dependence with the eclipse plugin subclipse. Maybe some conflicts between versions? And what is to do, to get it away?

I'm sorry guys, I'm not allowed to post images directly, because I have not enough reputation points. But i would be happy, if you can help me anyhow :)
While trying to find out myself, I saw Mark Phippard's comment about the General page for decorations. I went to Preferences > General > Appearance > Label Decorations and began disabling decorations until the green bar went away.
Turns out it was Decorate Classes with Test Case that caused the green bar, which can be unchecked to disable it. Searching for that, I found MoreUnit to be responsible: http://moreunit.sourceforge.net/
Looks like "MoreUnit decorates files which have a test case". I'm guessing it does so by seeing if there is a class starting with the same name and ending in "Test" or whatever the MoreUnit config might include.
Subclipse, and all team providers in general, only decorate the bottom-right corner. I do not know what that is in the top-right but it does not come from Subclipse.

Ecplise color files plugin?

Is there a way in eclipse to assign certain files a colour (much like OSX's Finder):
Such that opened editor's tabs are assigned the same colour - (and maybe even the text editor's background
For instance if I am working with MVC, I could assign all the Models blue, all the Views Green, Mediators Yellow etc...
I can't find one, but it seems so natural/obvious to me I thought I'd better ask.
Else, does anyone else have problems visually grouping th
Kind of...
Please have a look at Andrei Loskutov's Extended VS presentation plugin which, as its name suggests, is a Visual Studio skin for Eclipse. It has some tab colouring features (although may be the one you describe).
On a general note Andrei's eclipse plugins have, since version 2.x, garnered a lot of well deserved praise...

Netbeans Version Control File Color Codes?

I'm trying to find a legend that can help explain the different colors NetBeans uses to describe the state of a file.
Some of my file colors are:
Grey
Blue
Green
Any others I have yet to discover
If it helps, I'm using Netbeans 6.7 with CVS. What are these colors?
Green means new.
Blue means modified.
Grey means ignored and/or deleted. (Documentation contradicts the tooltip hint!)
If you go into the View menu, you can turn on Show Versioning Labels. That will put text next to each file explaining its state (and what each color represents).
Image from Netbeans.org
Using the online help and searching for icon/icons and or badge/badges should give you the information you want.
Alternatively take a look at BadgedIcons which at least explains some of the colors and icons (e.g. for version control)
