I'm facing a weird issue. Some of the scrollbars in my Android Studio have a different color than the others and that makes it impossible to use them without guesswork. I'm using the color-scheme Rider Melon Dark with custom colors for the logcat. How do I fix this? I see no options in the Color Scheme section for this.

I use Android Studio with Material Theme, as it makes it look A LOT better. The only problem is that when I initialize a variable, it shows up as dark grey, which is pretty unreadable because I use the dark theme. Is there an option that I can change only that dark grey to some other color, without making any changes to the color of other pieces of code?
Here's a screenshot:
File > Settings > Editor > Color Scheme > The language for which you want to change the color
I'm partially color blind and this causes some usability issues when I'm interacting with software, in this case Android Studio and Intellij. The Color Themes for Intellij website has helped me a lot for customizing the text editor, but there's still one issue.
The right scrollbar on the text editor shows color coded information about the location of errors, warnings and other context aware information.
It's very difficult for me to differentiate the elements of current color scheme for that bar.
Is there a way to customize it?
It seems that changing the Theme of the software doesn't affect said color scheme.
You need to check
Navigate through Setting --> Editor --> colors & Fonts --> General --> Errors and Warnings--> Error --> check Error Stripe mark (choose color you want) to show color code in right scroll
another way that might help you ,
Navigate to setting --> appearance --> check Adjust color of red-green deficiency (under theme)

Also in intelliJ idea, there is an option to enable color-blind mode:
Settings → Appearance & Behavior → Appearance → Adjust colors for red-green vision deficiency
I've installed Android Studio 2.1 and switched to the dark theme. How do I get rid of this background color? I can't seem to find it anywhere. I've changed all the background colors of comments but I can't seem to get rid of this:
The Created by Can... comment has a background like it's selected (of course it's not selected) and it's really disturbing my attention.
That background is actually warning highlight from code inspection. You can disable it by going to Settings -> Editor -> Inspections, where you can search for Default File Template Usage and uncheck it (screenshot for help).
Ok, I am using the Visual Studio 2012 Color Theme Editor extension and I have modified the dark theme a little bit so that it suits my needs.
However I am experiencing an issue with the background color when I am using the Find tool. The issue is that I am setting an exact color for the background of the highlighted string, but it seems that there is some default transparency applied which is not editable even when using the editor mentioned above (VS gives you the option to edit the colors while the custom editor gives you the option to change the opacity as well).
Since I am using the dark theme whichever color I choose it looks like dark grey with a little bit of red/blue/yellow/whatever. I need to set it to something vibrant and not to dark grey with a drop of white for example - I want to easily see what is highlighted when I search.
How do I set it to something vibrant and not to dark grey with a drop of white for example - I want to easily see what is highlighted when I search?
if i use a dark theme then links in Eclipse-"quick fix" or in i.e. Eclipse->Preferences->General->Editor (the three 'see... "File Associaton"|"Content Types"|"Appearance"'-links) are unreadable.
On this image the links i am talking about are cyan on grey:
I found a solution for Windows/XP:
The hover uses the same colors as the on your system. On Windows you
can change that via Display settings > Appearance > Advanced: ToolTip.
The link color is the one used in your browser (IE on Windows).
However, i need a solution for Linux (XFCE 4.8.1/GTK)
I checked/tested all settings of Eclipse and i found no setting for this link-color. It seems to be a system-setting (GTK), so i already tried to add this to gtkrc:
style "default" {
GtkWidget::link-color = "#ffffff"
}
class "GtkWidget" style "default"
but this did not change the link color in Eclipse.
I hope you can help - thanks!

Use the colors menu (the first entry in the picture):
And redefine the tooltip background color:
Then enjoy the readable popups:
Install gnome-color-chooser and customize the tooltip color as described here:

I'll chime in here, since I have the same issue.
There is no fix for this, when running Eclipse on Unix (KDE, Gnome, etc).
The color for links, which is used in the QuickFix list as well as various other places in the UI (such as Preferences panels), is hardcoded.
On Windows, you are luckier, since Eclipse uses the native link widget, which takes its colors from system settings.
On non-Windows, you are stuck with a dark-blue hardcoded color.
What it should do, at least on GTK, is use the GtkWidget::link-color setting. But it doesn't, currently.
If you want to see it fixed, either upvode this bug or fix the code yourself:
