Usability testing is going to be key here. And those advanced settings are not a solution. I wish you could see what a struggle it was to try to get the file list to show up in a usable way. The annoyances should be factored into development.
and the little hints in the right bar are too confusing with the dark background. Sure you can change the theme, but when you realize that two windows with dark background are almost impossible to see as different windows. along the lines of the book "Don't Make Me Think." Watch people with their struggles. Jetbrains staff should do more usability testing. that setting a theme didn't actually change it until I left WebStorm and came back in.) What helped was closing the editor and reopening, testing all the themes, and choosing the only one I could stand to use. In my view, there is really no excuse for this feature not being better developed. So it is possible to effect a change-but it is ridiculously complicated.
Even then, there are weird conflicts between some of the UI theme plugins (such as Material UI) and the default settings, and you have to mess around with the settings quite a bit before you get it to work. There are quite a few, and some affect the UI colors rather than just the editor. What I ended up doing was searching the plugin section (with the IDE settings) for "theme" or "color" and installing all the color schemes that were found. (At least not without installing additional plugins.) We do not have the ability to add a theme there, so if you want to make the non-editor part of the UI anything other than the default light or dark, you can't.

You can install themes that will show up there and can be applied easily to the editor.īut the setting under Settings > Appearance only changes the UI to either light or dark. The setting under Settings > Editor > Appearance changes the colors in the editor part of the IDE. Thanks Leon, but I know about the two areas to change the colors, as mentioned in my original post.
