Change IDE Tab Colors

Post by kenmo »

(Sorry if this has been asked/answered before; I searched but didn't find anything.)

Is there an IDE setting somewhere to change the colors of the new (4.60) IDE tabs?

Or could it be added in the next version?

I started creating a new custom color scheme for the first time since 4.60 B1, and I couldn't find a way to change the default black-on-white (active) and black-on-gray (inactive) tabs. (PB 4.60 x86)

EDIT: clarified colors

.....hmm, strange, I have black-on-grey tabs as the default. They highlight nicely in blue on mouse-over. PB4.60x86 WinXP

If it sounds simple, you have not grasped the complexity.

Oh, to clarify I meant the active tab. The rest are gray.

Also, I double checked, the active tab is pure white, not a subtle yellow like I always thought for some reason :shock: (maybe seemed yellowish from the context of surrounding colors...?)

Indeed, it would be nice if we could edit those colors. These parts are really bright compared to the rest if e.g. the black color scheme is in use... And I don't like that at all.

By the way: This would be great in combination with a fullscreen mode or something like that: http://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtop ... =3&t=47180
