More on Flash Builder color themes

Thanks for pointing to eclipsecolorthemes.org in my last post. There are several themes made after solarized light and dark. I made my own theme with more colors.

But the problem is that you have to install both Eclipse Preferences file and plugin XML. And what’s more, not all colors are exported there so you will have to adjust them yourself:

  • The most annoying color is ActionScript Occurrences at Preferences -> General -> Editors -> Text Editors -> Annotations. It’s that color with which similar stuff is highlighted when you select some lexem.
  • Syntax coloring at Preferences -> Flash Builder -> Editors.

Other than that everything looks slim so far.
