Protecting vision for the revolution---change colors for visual Studio

"For the revolution, to protect eyesight, prevent myopia, eye exercises began ..." This should be the oldest version of eye exercises, have you heard?

A bunch of crap.

And do not say above this eye exercises in the end there is wood useful, let the eyes relax under or is very necessary, especially now every day is not mobile phone, tablet is a computer, the former also heard that someone because of long time to play mobile phones, leading to blindness. So, comrades, hurry up and relax your eyes.

As a yard farmer, often need to stare at the screen for a few hours a day to hit the keyboard, Time long eyes will be very tired, work efficiency will be affected, you know why easy fatigue?

Kaji Tianya, dean of Ophthalmic Hospital, Kaji-ku, Tokyo, Japan, explains that the focus is on one of the two eye muscles, the ciliary muscle that regulates the thickness of the lens and the extraocular muscles that control the direction of eye rotation. The closer the sight, the heavier the burden of the two eye muscles, the more fatigue.

This is the best time to look at the distance, let the ciliary muscle relax, so as to alleviate the eye fatigue. If the time is tight, not even this time, it is recommended to adjust the Visual Studio color configuration, the glare of the color (such as white) all removed, changed to a more gentle color. Several tools are recommended to help you adjust and manage colors.

Say a small episode, once mother said eyes tired, look at the distant green plants. Later, there is a businessman brainwave, on the use of this statement launched a green writing paper, and then later on the "Red bean paste Green" to protect the vision, so many friends will be their Windows system color set to "red bean paste green." But I have to say, the truth is not so ....

It is not so much the green of the plant that relaxes the eyes as the distance between the plant and the human eye is far greater than the distance between the book and the human eye, and the movement toward the distance makes the ciliary muscle in a state of relaxation, straining it to get a rest. Believe that the green exercise can be a good protection of eyesight, it is better to look out of the window to be reliable.

As mentioned earlier, the ability to protect eyesight in green is unreliable. Set the computer to red bean paste Green The only thing you can do is make the screen brightness less dazzling. For the dry eye caused by the small blink of the tears, the posture, and the screen distance and other problems caused by visual fatigue, upper body pain, "red bean paste Green" is no effect.

--"Setting the computer screen background into red bean paste green can effectively protect eye vision"

Using Visaul Studio Color Theme Editor

From "A pile of crap", you can see as long as the color of Visual studio is not too dazzling on the line, as for is not "red bean paste Green", not important ~ This section will introduce the Microsoft Official launch of the VS theme editor, can help us to achieve color modification, how to change how to change, and can switch at any time. For example, day and night can use two sets of completely different themes, all you have to do is mouse click, so easy~~~

This article is mainly based on Visual Studio 2012.

Install extensions

This is Microsoft's official extension, which is now available in Visual Studio version 2010, version 2012, and 2013, and is installed according to the correct version of Visual Studio that you actually installed.

After installation, you will see the following interface in the "Extensions and Updates" screen.

The Change Color Theme submenu and the Customize Colors submenu are found under the Tools menu.

New menu in the tool

Themes that have been installed

Toggle Theme

As you can see, after installation, there are 9 styles available by default (light, black, and blue have become native theme styles for Visual Studio 2012), and you can quickly switch topics by clicking directly.

Edit Style

The default theme does not meet our goal of slowing eye fatigue, where only 2 of the themes modify the style of the editor, and the other only modifies the colors of the Visual Studio IDE. Therefore, you need to modify these topics. Now suppose what we need is "Blue with Dark Editor" and see how it's implemented.

1. Select Tool/customize Colors to open the edit entry

2. Select the benchmark template in the "New Theme" section on the left, then fill in "Blue with Dark Editor" and click "Create".

Edit interface

3, according to their own ideas to modify these colors, after the completion of the modification, as long as the save can be applied immediately, if you do not like, you can Ctrl + Z undo.

4. Copy and paste

This is a useful feature that works exactly the same as in the editor. You can choose what you want to copy into your own theme. I think some of the children's shoes may be the same as I do not know exactly which color suits their eyes, this function will help you. Below is a demonstration of how to copy the Black editor style from the Dark theme to the Blue with Dark editor.

The perfect match for colors with Studio Styles

Find your favorite editor color scheme

If you can't find the editor's color scheme at once, it is now recommended that you "Studiostyles" the site, which offers many color styles.

I believe many children's shoes have already used them, do not know what your favorite is the one of them? I personally prefer "selenitic". The color is not so exciting, very harmonious ~ ~

Blend the editor color scheme with the IDE colors.

First, create a new blue with selenitic theme with blue as the base tone, and apply the theme directly.

The downloaded "selenitic" style is then imported into Visual Studio.
