Is there any alternative way to change Eclipse color theme. I found a lot of articles, following the direction step-by-step. However, I could not able to change the color theme because the reason shows as below.
and
As a result, I have waited for weeks. but now I still can't change it. I used to Vibrant Ink for a long while and I really love it. May anyone give me some ideas?
The website that displays the preview has been down for awhile, however you are still able to select a theme from the list then click "Apply" to apply the theme.
"Download more themes" will not work.

I was use vs code for a while, I was happy to see my decorator colors and color picker outline the code, but someday I just update the vs code, I don't know when that is happen, so I saw the box color between my code, I did not like it at all, so I tried so hard to make as old, I did research and googled it but not lucky to find out how to make it as old again.
see my screenshot so you can understand what I want. Thank you.
I tried to change the settings but if I uncheck this open option that color box is disappear,
I resently switched to Visual Studio Code as my editor. I installed my favorite theme "Material Theme Palenight High Contrast". I'm in love with it. There is just on problem, that really hinders me when coding on my laptop.
The squiggly lines of the linting error are super dark, because they have opacity.
As you can see here, one can barely see the error below item. Is there a way to change the opacity of linting errors?
EDIT: I tried setting workbench.colorCustomizations but that caused my theme to disappear.
Edit 2: I tried setting the theme specific settings like this:
"workbench.colorCustomizations": {
"[Material Theme Ocean High Contrast]": {
"editorError.foreground": "#ff0000"
}
},
but it didn't work. The color of the squiggly stayed the same.
The instructions on the theme page you linked say to use editor.colorCustomizations, not workbench.colorCustomizations. Have you tried that?
There's also a bit above the link I gave that talks about setting the accent color. They don't define what "accent color" means, so I'm not sure if that color is the thing you're trying to change, but you might try it.
I was able to find a fix. Go to the place where your extensions are installed:
/Users/user-name/.vscode/extensions/extension-name/themes/theme-name.json
In that file find the values for editorError.foreground and editorWarning.foreground. Here you can overwrite their values and it will work.
I'm just asking myself, whether this should be an issue for the VSCode repository? Since setting the settings in the user settings should overwrite this. One shouldn't have to change this .json file. Especially since this will change back again, if you re-install the theme.
Dummy Edit 🤦🏻♂️:
Damn, I accidently wrote Oceaning insteand of Palenight. The color customizations work... My bad. No need to do this hacky trick I described above.
I just installed Dart, and the hints(of the autocomplete feature) had black text over dark grey background, nearly unredeable.
How can I fix this?
I already tried to change the theme of the IDE but that didn't work.
Check the image to see what I'm talking about:

I can't understand why changing the theme shouldn't help.
Beside from that you can take a look at Themes for Dart Editor (links to a tools to customize the colors)
So I downloaded the Eclipse Dark Theme and got the syntax highlighting worked out, but I am having issues when using content assist feature. The blue text on the dark background makes the text very hard to change, and I have tried digging around looking for settings to change this but I could not find any. Can someone give me some advice here?
I was looking at this dark theme post and applied Moonrise theme on Eclipse Juno. I love everything it lays out except for the expandable arrow color. It's barely visible when my mouse isn't hovered. Does anyone know if this is possible to change?
As Spyros has mentioned, the author noted that the arrows color is impossible to change which is unfortunate.
Regardless, if you don't mind working under old graphic properties (yay!), the system arrow is replaced with a white box plus sign which makes everything visible. The drawback is, of course, the Windows 7 theme is gone. Found this by accident when trying to solve the performance issue: Look at Pyree's solution
I am afraid that is not possible due to the limitation of the css engine used to theme eclipse, according to the theme's author. (github)
