When changing the background for the editor the background for the code folding area doesn't change. This looks especially awkward when using a dark background with light text color. In this case -that is if the background is turned dark- the folding markers should be changeable to an appropriate color, too.
Are you talking about the java portion of the editor?
I don't have the Java portion installed, I'm only using CDT. I thought this was a general editor problem.
Can somebody please provide some direction on this bug in terms of where it would appear. It's an annoying bug and one that I'd like to fix to allow for darker backgrounds in Eclipse...

I was going to upload a screen shot when i got a chance. Is there an issue to allow import and export of syntax highlighter settings do you know? The issue tracker is really really dreadful, puts me off creating issues. Also to be able to keep all imported highlighter settings that you could switch anytime you wanted to would be great.
Created attachment 140302 [details] Eclipse Preferences File There's an Eclipse preferences file here also demonstrating the issue, it needs to be imported through File -> Import: Preferences -> Next: Import All.
Has it been any progress on this? Can you give me a hint on where to look in the Eclipse's codebase? Does it still happen? We are having (maybe) a related issue in the Counterclockwise plugin.
We are still having issue about this, even on Mars: https://github.com/laurentpetit/ccw/issues/799#issuecomment-126024708
No problems in Java but I have a white background clashing with my dark theme when switching to a C++ project.
Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Developers Version: Oxygen.1a Release (4.7.1a) Build id: 20171005-1200 OS: Linux, v.4.13.0-32-generic, x86_64 / gtk 3.22.25 is still affected
Build id: 20180405-1200 still affected. Eleven years old bug. New unneeded features keep popping up all the time but even the most annoying 10 year old bugs won't be fixed. Are the developers actually using their product themselves or have they abandoned it already?
It seems like bug is still actual. At least for Eclipse CDT. Mode info on bug is also present in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1041760/is-it-possible-to-make-eclipses-code-folding-gutter-black Here is also some workaround to a bug, which would imply, that such feature actually is working, but for some reason when enabling over `Preferences -> C/C++ -> Editor -> Folding -> Enable folding...` it turns ugly, white in black theme. But if it is disabled and turned on for each file with `ctrl + /` or over left click menu - it does match theme color scheme.
