Eclipse - Change Console background color


I applied a theme for eclipse, where the Console's background color is to dark.

If I want to change it by right clicking on the Console -> preferences -> background color the new Color doesnt get applied. Is there a way to apply a new BG Color even when using a theme?

Thanks!


Solution

  • I had a similar problem with luna. Didn't work with the dark 'theme' and similar dark 'color and font theme' - had to reset to classic under main preferences. Then right clicking from within the console does change to the selected colour. Maybe related to this recurring bug in eclipse.
