I have a dark theme in IntelliJ Idea and a super annoying white title bar, how do I change my title bar's color without messing with system wide settings?
I use Windows 10.
I found the answer. On the desktop right click, then select Personalize, then click Colors on the right sidebar, then in the "Show accent color in the fallowing surfaces" section select title bars.
After that go into InteliJ, in File > Settings, click on plug-ins, select "browse repositories", search for Material Theme, and you install the plug-in. After you restart your IDE, in the Material Theme Wizzard you'll find a setting for the themed title bar.
As of version 2018.3 IntelliJ IDEA does not support a dark title bar on Windows. There's an open issue tracking this.
now IntelliJ supports this check Appearance -> Use dark window headers.

I just installed the "Darkest Dark Theme" for Eclipse, which uses DevStyle. It works great, except the title bar at the top of the window is bright white.
Here's an example.
How can I change the color of Eclipse's title bar in Windows?
You should change your windows theme.
This part of the window is under windows responsibility and not the program.
Instruction to change to dark theme
I don't think that is any theme available for that feature in eclipse as most themes focus on the menubar and coding area look&feel. Try changing your windows theme if necessary.
Although I can change the theme and colour of Xcode text edit area, I cant't find how to change Xcode navigator area? Hope to get a solution.
I dont think so it is possible.
I havn't came through any such customisation for xcode, though you can change font and color or editor area and console.
How can one make Xcode's UI completely dark?
There must be a way to have a dark theme for Xcode (like Visual Studio has it for example). I'm not only talking about a way of styling the editor, but a full-on dark theme. Dark menus, dark console, dark file browser, dark menu bar, etc.
Xcode's bright UI hurts at night and I can't be the only one who's really searching for this ;) (please don't recommand f.lux to me now, that's not a solution)
Xcode's UI can be changed to completely dark with Xcode 10 running on macOS Mojave. Just go into System Preferences -> General -> Under Appearance -> Click the dark mode
You can reference to this article:
https://medium.com/#guilhermerambo/how-to-enable-real-dark-mode-on-os-x-macos-14966f9f7d24
Install a dark mode in system service,it make Xcode most control dark,it's not perfect, but works.
Hope Apple implement it someday.
In Preferences → Accessibility there is a checkbox Invert colors. Of course, it doesn't give a nice dark theme, but I found it quite useful when working in darkness. The whole system interface with this checkbox on looks funny.
System wide dark mode is announced in macOS 10.14 Mojave in WWDC 18. You can also enable dark mode for XCode 10. Dark mode in interface builder.
Here is the link for XCode 10 beta
In Xcode 9 or below you can include the last the theme Dark,
https://gist.github.com/andresilvagomez/94854ed5320fac2b3b5790e63efc516e
Execute this command
open ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/UserData/FontAndColorThemes/
and create this file there
Default (Dark).xccolortheme
and paste the content inside of URL
Don't think Xcode can do that. You might want to consider the excellent Appcode IDE though.
If you need Dark theme for the whole UI, Here is how you what you can do:
1: Open Xcode settigns
2: Click Appearance and select Dark
Done!
This works in Xcode 9:
Xcode --> Preferences.. --> Fonts & Colors tab --> Choose your them (Dusk / Midnight)
I want to change the webIDE theme in Mozilla Firefox. I want the editor to be dark colored. I googled it but couldn't find anything.
WebIDE? Did you mean Mozilla Developer Edition?
You want to revert to it's original theme but the editor still remain dark?
I think it's impossible because the editor is dependent with the themes you used.
if you want to change the color of your Toolbar (I don't know what it is called) just go to Open Menu (the burger icon) ->Add-ons*( If you installed MDE it's theme will be available)* -> Appearance. then Enabled it.
To enter to Dev mode (MDE)just press F12 and your editor is not really black. There a link below, hope it helps you.

Is there a dark theme for eclipse for windows which changes the color of scroll bars and menu bar to dark as well?
In this post, we can see pretty themes but those are for Mac OS. For Windows, the dark themes look pretty ugly, because of those white scroll bars and title bars etc. really!
There is a dark theme that also changes the color of the scroll bars.
Darkest Dark Theme
https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/darkest-dark-theme
In addition it said it provides nicer icons than the common ones of dark themes.
Note that it worked fine on Windows 10 64bits with Neon.3 Release (4.6.3). I do not know if it works well in other versions.
-
The Syntax highlighting I am using is not the native of the theme, but the RainbowDrops.epf. Download RainbowDrops.epf (right click on the link and select Save link as...) and import it with Eclipse built-in Preferences Import (go to File > Import... then select General > Preferences).
I think that the scrollbars are native OS and we can't change it.
As for the console you can edit it this way:
Preferences > General > Editors > Text Editors: Background colour
Then just choose the colors you want.
Hope this information was helpful.
Have a nice day.
I understand the original question was for Windows, but this is seen on Linux also and was frustrating to figure out so posting here.
If having to use the SWT_GTK3=0 workaround on Linux for Eclipse, then it will use Gtk2 and you will see the same problem Solace described.
Here is the Gtk2 theme that worked well for me:
https://github.com/horst3180/Vertex-theme
Best is to pull down the git repo to '~/opt/vertex-theme', checkout stable, and then install it by hand. (Don't delete directory so can uninstall later if needed. That's why I say to put it in your user's opt directory.) The .deb version didn't have an updated key and now apt whines about that. *glare
After install then run 'gtk-chtheme' (the Gtk2 theme changer) and you can select it there. That will fix both the bright menu bar at the top and scrollbars in Linux. If Gtk3 works for you with Eclipse, then you probably won't see the theme problem.
