I have trouble using color theme in eclipse neon.1 - eclipse

I use eclipse neon.1 on a macbook and I cannot change the color theme
I have installed the color theme from the marketplace but when I choose a theme from the appearance it cannot be seen in the small screen on the right and I cannot apply it.
I did the same job on my windows computer and it works just fine.
Thanks for your time!

How to darken the menubar in Eclipse 2019-09

I recently wanted to change the theme of my Eclipse IDE (Version 2019-09) to a dark theme. While the famous Moonrise UI was not compatible with my IDE, I was satisfied with the standard dark theme provided by Eclipse as well as by the DevStyle Dark theme. Unfortunaly the menubar of the IDE is still white, which bothers me a lot. I run Eclipse on Windows10. Is it somehow possible to alter this?
Here is a screenshot of what I am talking about: http://prntscr.com/pa6pft

Eclipse dark theme bug after uninstalling

I installed the dark theme for Eclipse but since I didn't like it, I uninstalled it. But what happened was this.The background of the text editor remains black after uninstalling the theme
The background of the text editor remains black after uninstalling the theme although the text color is the original from the standard white background again
(If I switch the workspace the background becomes normal, thus, I guess, it does have something to do with the .plugins folder inside the .metadata folder of the workspace)
Any ideas?
What do you mean by installing a theme? You can easily change the theme through the Eclipse preferences by: Preferences > General > Appearance. Inside the Appearance menu should be a place where you can change the theme.

Change theme background color for eclipse luna

For luna, I have downloaded eclipse color theme and changed my text editor color to 'Solarized Dark'. How can I change my project explorer background color and other windows other than the editor? I have picked Dark Theme but I can't seem to customize dark theme to match the text editor background color. Any help is appreciated.

You need to change some CSS files,
You will find them here :
C:...\eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.ui.themes_1.0.1.v20141126-1957\css\
The next step is to find the right file and the right color to change (this is your part, i'm to lazy for it ^^ But it works)
You need to restart eclipse to see the changes.
Enjoy your customisation ! ;)

Eclipse color theme plugin issue

I just installed the Eclipse color theme plugin and when I go to "Preferences-General-Appearance-Color Theme" and choose a new theme it does not change my colors. I am testing this in both the "Web" and "JavaScript" perspectives.
Currently my background color is black (which it was not before, and I in fact have no idea how it got switched). I just want to switch it back to a typical white theme.
Ok, I figured this out. I also have Aptana Studio installed in my Eclipse. Under the settings for Aptana Studio is a category called "Themes". When I changed the theme here my colors finally changed. This also explains why my screen switched to a black background. It must have been the default color theme for Aptana when I installed it. I guess the Aptana Studio themes override the default Eclipse color settings and also the "Color Theme" plugin I installed.
