BUILD 20020212

Set "Window" background color white
  (Control Panel -> Display -> Appearance -> Item:Window)
Start Eclipse
Open an editor
Set the focus to another view
Look at the editor TABs which are not active: white
Change "Window" background color to green 
==> Colors hot switch in Eclipse but the TAB keeps the old color.

Can't do this until we get support from SWT.
Comment 2 Randy Giffen CLA 2002-08-09 12:14:10 EDT
Reopen to investigate
Comment 3 Eduardo Pereira CLA 2002-09-05 16:23:18 EDT
I don't think that the white in the tab was meant to be the same as the 
editor's background.
Comment 4 Michael Van Meekeren CLA 2004-06-25 13:30:22 EDT
The non-focus colour for editors is white intentionally and it not intended to 
match the window background color.
Comment 5 Michael Van Meekeren CLA 2005-10-11 13:43:27 EDT
to investigate for M3
Comment 6 Michael Van Meekeren CLA 2005-11-18 14:23:35 EST
White is the intended colour here.  Leaving as is.
