In Android Studio, how do I change the background color of the left-hand gutter? - android-studio

In Android Studio (version 2.0), the background color of the left-hand gutter is the same background color as my editor. This causes me to erroneously think that my indentions are off.
If I could simply change the background color of the gutter, it will look like a separate area to my eyes, and I won't stop second-guessing the indent levels.
But I can't find the setting (not surprising--there are thousands of settings!). And as you can see, I only turn line-numbers on while debugging.
In my current settings, you can see how difficult it is to tell the gutter apart from the editor:

Finally found it!
Open up the Preferences according to your Operating System.
Editor -> Colors & Fonts -> General -> Gutter -> Background. Check the background box on the far right, then click on the rectangle to the right of the checkbox. A color picker will pop up, allowing you to change the background color of the gutter.

Android Studio changed to Ugly Font [duplicate]

Right now I am using the Darcula theme. I want to change the default font to something else. I go into Editor > Colors & Fonts > Font but all the options are greyed out. For Editor Font it shows Show only monospaced fonts as checked with Primary font as Monospaced, but neither of these can be changed. I tried changing the font under Appearance but that just changes the font used around AS and not inside the editor.
All you have to do is click the "Save As" button to create a new profile. You can't change the font because you can't overwrite the default profile
Android Studio The defaultEditor(Editor)TheScheme(Scheme)Is the font cannot be modified,you canSave as,
Save as a new scheme (Scheme),and then change the font size;
Location: File->Settings->Editor->Fonts -> Font & (for Mac : Android Studio -> Preferences)
We can change the font size according to CTRL + mouse wheel which is really easy to use it !!!
To use this feature select File -> Settings -> Editor -> General -> select the checkbox of Change the font size (Zoom) with Ctrl + Mouse Wheel
I hope it's helpful.
After Spending a good quality of time on this issue i finally fixed it...
In Latest Android Studio 3.2 version
Follow it will work for sure...

point 5 select the font size of your wish.
Click on the Apply and Ok...
Step 5: Work 100 percentage...sure...
Find Setting icon from top toolbar and follow the steps accordingly in image attached.
I was able to increase the font, using the follow strategy.
If creating a custom setting doesn't help:
Click on File -> Settings ->Editor and check the field: "Change font-size with CRTL + Mouse Wheel"
Worked for me.
We have to be more careful when doing this. For the first time I have changed the font size of menu by mistake instead of font. First create your own scheme by going to File-->Settings-->Colors & Fonts and then you can make changes to your own scheme. The final procedure is to go to settings(File-->Settings) and then select Editor and Colors & Fontsin the left bar menu. Then select the arrow on the left side of Colors & Fonts and then select Font in the left menu bar. You will get options to change your values. Remember you can only change values to your own sheme.
Android Studio 3.3
Preferences>Editor>Color Scheme Font Select the cog next to the Scheme:and choose Duplicate. On the same screen, choose your desired font and select Apply to preview or OK to store and exit preferences.
For Android Studio 3.4.1 Go to File -> Settings -> Collapse Editor -> Font -> Select the required font -> Click OK.
Done.

Flutter Android Studio Color Palette not showing

Recently I started learning flutter, I am trying to change the color. The Tutor on her screen when typing Colors. The IDE automatically shows color palettes whereas in my case it doesn't.
I tried the following options:
Settings -> Editor -> General -> [checkbox]Show quick documentation on mouse
move
Settings -> Editor -> General -> Code Completion -> [checkbox]Insert selected
suggestion by pressing space, dot or other content-dependent keys &
[checkbox]Show the documentation popup in .... ms
It doesn't work on any of those.
I've attached the screenshot.
Tutor Screenshot:
My Screenshot:
Color palette is part of Quick Documentation.
So, put the mouse cursor over the Colors class or the color name as bellow:
And then, go to View -> Quick Documentation, or use the shorthand key
Windows - CTRL+Q
MacOS - F1
When the help panel has been shown, you can scroll down and see all available colors.

Visual Studio 2019 Color Theme Editor - How to make background color of Solution Explorer transparent?

Goal: I'm using a VS extension called "ClaudiaIDE" that enables you to set an image as a background to Visual Studio 2019. I set the background to a wood grain wallpaper (it looks amazing). It makes the code editor background and main window background transparent so you can see the image, but not anything else. I then started using Color Theme Editor to add transparency to other sections of the VS IDE so it's mostly showing the background image. I want the right side windows (like solution explorer) to be transparent as well.
Two stackoverflow answers say the color value is stored under "treeview". I changed the "treeview" background using the wizard but it made no difference (despite other SO comments saying it worked). Likely due to the old answers being for VS 2017 or earlier.
I then changed the "treeview" color manually in the CustomTheme.vstheme file and I successfully made the grey color transparent, but now there is an absolute black blackground, which was perhaps there to give a shadow effect. The code I edited is below (The opacity is intentional):
<Category Name="TreeView" GUID="{92ecf08e-8b13-4cf4-99e9-ae2692382185}">
<Color Name="Background">
<Background Type="CT_RAW" Source="00252526" />
<Foreground Type="CT_RAW" Source="FFF1F1F1" />
</Color>
I searched for every reference of "#FF000000" and for testing made them all fully transparent: "#00000000". This made no difference, solution explorer retained its "#FF000000" (by observation only, I don't know where the code is). I know the hex is right because I copied a screenshot into paint.net and grabbed the color.
I then changed my Microsoft Windows settings so that it didn't use the dark background, in case it was applying that to the VS windows. No change.
If anyone has any ideas on how to access the black underlying background for windows like "solution explorer" i would greatly appreciate it. It must be getting that value from somewhere.
Install this:
https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=VisualStudioPlatformTeam.VisualStudio2019ColorThemeEditor
Top menu:
Tool=>Customize Colors => choose theme
Show All Elements button (same row with save icon)
Search for (there is search box):
Environment → ToolWindowFloatingFrameInactive

change background colour of notepad++ editor

I knew that colour can be set through
Settings->Style Configurator
but when the line that I am editing has a different font and background colour which I don't know how to set.
Also when I am selecting an block of code, I can't control the colour of the selection.
Basically I just want to set the editor to have the same color as the typical console, green on black background (which is friendly to eyes, not straining).
Is it possible to customise the color in the notepad++ editor ?
Or anyone knows of an editor that can meet this requirement ?
Thanks
For me it works fine to do the following:
Go to "Settings" Menu and choose "Style Configurator".
There you choose "Global Styles" (language list) and "Default Style" (style list) and set the colors you want.
You can also try to use the "Global override" style and check the different checkboxes.
In Notepad++ there is quick option without change color setting. In Notepad++ have many themes with different color option.
Notepad++ has many themes which you can select in a dropdown box in the Style Configurator window. Many of these themes (e.g. Bespin, Black board, Twilight) have dark background and different colors for different kinds of text for programming languages.
After Click “Save & Close” Button then Background and Font Color will change, like in the below image.
