Visual Studio Community Mac Change Line Number Bar Color

I am trying to tweak my IDE settings for VS2017 Community Mac. I have download a theme and everything looks good except for the fact that the line numbers & column they are in are white (see below). Is there a way to change this?

Solution

  • You did not specify what type of theme you are using (.json, .vssettings, textmate(?)), so add/update your theme with following and adjust the colors to your preference:

    .vssettings:

    <Item Name="Line Number" Foreground="0x00494E3F" Background="0x00343129" BoldFont="No"/>

    .json:

    {"name": "Line Numbers", "fore":"#BDBDBD", "back":"#2A2A25" },

    textmate (not really sure this is even supported any more):

    <Style name="linenumber" color="#AAAAAA" bgColor="#FDFDFD" />
