[cross-project-issues-dev] Contribute project styling for the dark theme

[Lars Vogel <lars.vogel@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

in the recent integration builds (or M7) the platform team supports styling of UI related properties. This allows projects to contribute reasonable defaults for syntax highlighting for the integrated dark theme.

See the attached files. xml-editor.png shows how a not styled editor would look like and colorsyntaxhightlighs.png shows the styled Java editor.

I could like to encourage projects to contribute their settings to the dark theme. 

See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=433475 for the general discussion and https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=433605 for an example how to style JDT (which I plan to contribute for RC1, via 433605).

For several projects I created already bugs to contribute that.  If you are interested, please create a bug and add it to 433475.

Best regards, Lars
