Transform eclipse into a dark color theme

All along, I used the Eclipse IDE to be accustomed to the white background, but recently the program started to feel that the white background seemed "too bright". Look at other people using the dark color theme, I also come to exchange it. Front-facing

To swap the Eclipse IDE with a different color theme, your Eclipse IDE needs to be more than 4.2 versions. I'm using Eclipse version Kepler on Mac OS X.

Install Dark color Theme

There's not much of a dark-color theme currently in use, and I'm using this eclipse Color Theme.

After you have downloaded the file, open the Dropins subdirectory of your eclipse catalog, open eclise, and change the subject (theme) to ' Dark ' in Preferences, General, appearance. Juno ', re-activating Eclipse can have a basic dark-color theme.

Install Eclipse Color Theme

Eclipse Color Theme This plugin allows you to change the color theme of the editor (editors) with the dark color theme of the previous installation for best results.

The installation method is simple, first go to Eclipse Marketplace to search and select the installation. Once the installation is complete, you can set the color theme of your liking in color theme, appearance, general, preferences.

Tuning Package/project Browser (explorer)

In the kit/specialist Browser This view may have a color display that does not fit the preferences, for example: the modified file uses a gray background, but the whole background is close to black. Here I adjust the color of my git pin to the modified file/catalog. To Preferences, General, Colors and fonts, modify the ' uncommitted change (Background) ' In the Git group and ' uncommitted Eground) '.

Tuning Groovy Editor

After switching to the dark color theme, the operator and the large parentheses in the Groovy editor are Black, which is difficult to discern in the background of the dark colors. Change the color ' bracket ', ' Operator color ' and ' Annotation color ' to your preferred colour in the Preferences, Groovy--and Editor, I chose to use Gray (CCCCCC).
