Eclipse IDE 4.15，white
This should be related to bug 551462. The theme has changed and Console View use this changed color if nothing is to be displayed. I have not tested any possible combinations but you should find the same behavior with Outline View and Call Hierarchy View when those views have no data to show. If the Console View has a console to show the background color does not change in my 4.16 IDE. I prefer white background. Indeed related to Bug 551462. Previously, inactive parts were inconsistent: sash, borders, headers and folder background colors were all different from one another. There was a gradient for inactive tab headers in an attempt to make the colour transition smooth, but it didn't quite work, there was still a clear cut between the blue-ish header and the rest of the white folder. The background of the tab folder is now consistent with that of the tab headers, both when the folder is active and inactive, which I feel is an improvement, especially given that this is the case nowadays on Windows. There are ongoing discussions about enabling more subtle visual indicators of which part is focused, see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=563496#c6 for example. They will make this issue obsolete, given that we would be able to keep the same light tab header and folder background colors when active and inactive. |
