Can't save syntax colouring in Spyder - colors

Downloaded Spyder yesterday with Anaconda like everyone else.
I went preferences - syntax colouring - create new - (changing colors) - save,
then the whole preference window just disappears.
It is the same when I tried to edit existing scheme.
I tried only changing bold, and click save without changing any,
then the whole window doesn't disappear.
Please help me. I want my coloring.

It doesn't disappear. it just goes below other windows.

Mouse scroll wheel causing text selection in VS code

I'm using VS code and by accident I pressed some keys and somehow the scroll wheel of the mouse is selecting text rather than scrolling the page up and down. I feel like the mouse wheel press is acting like pressing the "alt" key.
I've tried deleting VS code and deleting extensions and such and it didn't work.
The problem persists only in VS code.
Is that problem familiar to you?
Do you know how to fix that?
Thank you, Ori Silberman.
The only help I can give is to completely nuke your VS code, and all preferences and support files and start again.
The preferences and support files can be found as follows.
macOS:
~/Library/Application Support/Code
Windows:
%APPDATA%\Code\
Linux:
~/.config/Code/

Sublime sidebar menu right click items are greyed out. How do I resolve this?

When I right click on items in my side bar, in order to modify files, all the options are greyed out like so:
It only happens in Sublime. I have tried Atom and it doesn't have this issue.
The application permissions have not changed and is owned by root:admin.
I have tried reinstalling Sublime to no avail.
I am using Sublime Text 3, on Mac Sierra.
Any idea what would cause this?
Only solution I found was to completely reinstall sublime

Sublime Text Side Bar Activating every time when switching between open files. How can I stop it?

Basically:
Using Sublime Text: build 3114 on Win7
Every time when I move between open files in different tabs the side bar annoyingly keeps activating itself each time and keeps sliding in.
Is this a bug or am I missing some setting somewhere that I have to tweak?
Looked all over the place for an explanation/settings option but no luck.
I have Sublime on another Win7 machine and the sidebar behaves as expected. It doesn't activate itself when I move between open files.
YES!!! finally found what was doing it :)
An obscure plugin I had : AutoHide Sidebar , Uninstalled and all is good..finally...
Hope this helps anyone who gets in my situation.
you can hide side bar from view
i had the same problem.
I did resolve it! just uninstall package AutoHide Sidebar and SyncedSideBar.

Can't change comment color in sublime text editor 3?

I have what I would consider the perfect theme colors for my Sublime Text Editor 3 application; however, the only thing that is very annoying and hard to see is the comment colors. They're the same color as the background but maybe just one shade lighter.
I've seen some other posts on here on editing theme color files within Sublime Text but for some reason it seems like the data isn't taking effect. It's like it's going off of cached data or something.
For example, I'm using the "Monokai" theme. I've edited /opt/sublime_text/Packages/Color Scheme - Default.sublime-package and searched for Monokai. I changed the hex color code under lineHighlight, and restart Sublime. Nothing changes. In fact, I've changed numerous hex color codes under that section and restarted Sublime Text and absolutely nothing has change.d
What am I doing wrong here? I'm running this on Linux Mint 17.3 Cinnamon
I was unable to change comments color by editing Monokai.tmTheme even after purging cache or sublime reinstall.
For Sublime 3.1.1 Build 3176 editing Monokai.sublime-color-scheme works.
1. Open Package Resource Viewer
2. Open Color Scheme
3. Open Monokai color scheme
4. Add you desired color in variables (pick here)
5. Change comment color
6. Enjoy your new comments color!
I've done exactly what you said, changed the value under lineHighlight in Monokai.tmTheme in Color Scheme - Default.sublime-package, restarted Sublime Text and it worked just fine. I'm running Build 3103 on Manjaro Linux.
Sublime Text stores its settings and cache ~/.config/sublime-text-3, I suggest temporarily renaming this folder, which should take you to a freshly installed state. Then make sure Sublime Text really restarts and that your color scheme changes are really in place.
I encountered the same problem. I found the following way solved my problem.
According to #Саша Черных, one can go to
tmtheme-editor.herokuapp.com/#!/editor/theme/Monokai to create and download a customized theme. Then, in Sublime Text 3, from [References -> Browse Packages...], you can find where your Packages folder locates. Just put the downloaded file "Monokai.tmTheme" in that folder, restart app, then it's done.

Sublime Text 3 - Double Tab Issue

I am using Sublime Text 3 and every time I press tab it will add an extra tab. My settings are to display tabs as an actual tab (not spaces) and is equivalent to 4 spaces. My issue causes a single tab to therefore create 2 tabs the length of 8 spaces.
For example, if I am trying to indent it will tab twice and I will have to delete one tab.
If I select a block of text it will indent it twice and result in the text being deleted and I have to undo it once to bring the text back.
Also, when using auto complete I normally hit tab to auto complete the first option. It will select the option and do a tab after it. I am not sure if this is an option or setting but its extremely annoying and I have not found a solution yet.
Sublime Text double tabs on tab key press
Sublime Text deletes/removes text on indentation / tab
Both problems are due to a popup (most often the SFTP free version popup for me) hiding in the background. If you make sure to close the popup windows every time they appear you will not get these issues. You could also pay for Sublime or the plugin to remove the popups.
In OSX you can't focus back on Sublime Text without clicking on the popup, so you will never have these problems.
I just had the same issue. I just restarted Sublime and it worked again, no need to reinstall or change any settings.
I just encountered this problem recently, and it appears to only happen on Windows. In my case, the pop-up "Hello! would you like to purchase sublime?" was open in the background, and that caused this issue for me. Once that pop-up is closed, everything works just fine.
Although the question is three months old at the time of writing, this might help people that are still looking for an answer. After having this issue for a while, it annoyed me so much that I traced back the issue.
The double tab issue only happened after a while, so I figured it was triggered by a certain key combination, being pressed wrongly. I've also noticed that the bug only occurred at Windows, not on Linux (Ubuntu).
After disabling all Sublime Text 3 plugins one by one, I've noticed that, for me, SFTP triggered the bug. This happened upon saving, SFTP started uploading, and displayed a evaluation notice. As I've purchased SFTP (and activated it), the double tab bug never occurred again. Even after enabling all other packages, the double tab never troubled again.
This is only one solution to the problem, your problem might originate from something else. Try to disable packages which might cause the problem and try to find the problem that way. It's a lot of work, but might get you the solution.
This solution worked for me on windows:
Just go to
View -> Layout -> Single
