Color options of F2 Background (Dark Theme issue)

[ABAP-Pete25]

Hello everyone,

I set up a nice dark color theme and it is really comfortable. the codefont has a light grey.

I have only the big problem to set the background color of F2 screen.

Because the code itself is grey and the background is a very bright color, it is hard to read sections that are collapsed:

It is the same window like F2:

I found an option to change the background for quick assist, but I did not find an option to change to colors for F2.

Can anyone help me or is there really no option to change this colors ?

Hi Peter,

currently the background color of this popups cannot be configured (just the same as it cannot be configured in Eclipses' Java Development Tools).

We will check if we can make this configurable in one of the next versions of ADT.

It is posible by modify Eclipse's CSS but simplest way decide install addon example:

As far as I remember this settings comes from system colors, so you have to update system settings to make it dark like this.

Yes that's true this color definition comes from the operating system. But on MacOS for example there is not way to change this color definiton by the user (at least there is no user interface for this - there might be a way to change this on the comand line).

To make this easier for the user we will provide an ADT-specific setting for the background / foreground color setting that influences these dialogs (code folding hover, element info popup, element info view) in one of our next ADT releases.

That's great Will be easier to maintain.

Sounds great !

I'm looking forward for the ADT-release which provides this new option

Am I doing something wrong or is there anything broken with "Dark" theme in combination with ADT?

For example Logon:

Or breadcrumb:

Hello Patrick,

when I starting ADT I have the same "design". I never saw it different than this.
I could imagine that this comes from windows  system and is not adjustable by ADT/Eclipse.
