I like the Dark Color Theme for VS2012 but it really annoys me that it doesn´t apply to the Project Properties.
And I can´t find the Properties to change the Color in the Visual-Studio-ColorTheme Editor...
Is it even possible to change these Colours?
GoTo: Tools -> Options -> Environment (General)
you will get the option to change color, only if you've installed the Visual-Studio Color theme editor

I use Visual Studio 2012 Color Theme Editor (http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/366ad100-0003-4c9a-81a8-337d4e7ace05) "light with dark editor" theme and I have a problem with the quick info color. I want to change the colors because I cannot see it with the current settings.
Which property is for that under Tools->Environment->Fonts and Colors->... ?
Thanks.
Go to Tools > Options > Environment > Fonts and Colors, select "Editor tooltips" and then change the Plain text foreground color.
Just updated to vs2012 update 2 but I noticed that the text colors have changed for any knockout portions in html. they have very light grey background and this makes it very hard to read. I cant find any thing specific that points to knockout js in the fonts and colors section of the visual studio options so I havent been able to make them readable.
does any one know how to fix this?
In Visual Studio -> Tools -> Options -> Environment -> Fonts and Colors, in the Display items:, scroll down to Knockout region and modify the Item background: color.
I had the same issue. I installed this ASP.NET and Web Tools 2012 and then I got the "Knockout Region" and was then able to edit the style
Just install Visual Studio 2012 Color Theme Editor (300KB)
It will automatically fix the problem for all themes. (Dark, Blue, Light)
It is useful especially if you can't find Knockout Region in Visual Studio -> Tools -> Options -> Environment -> Fonts and Colors -> Display items.
I'm not a fan of both the dark and light color themes offered in Visual Studio 2012.
How can I change colors of the title bar, menu bar, tool bars, etc to make them look like the ones in Visual Studio 2010?
The blue theme has been added back in Visual Studio 2012 Update 2, no extensions required.

Download and install the Color Theme Editor Extension 2012 which works with VS2012.
(It allows you to apply a predefined theme or customise the theme for yourself - but you can choose the 'Blue' theme for a VS2010 style)
(edit: Or use the 'Blue' theme that is now built into VS2012 as of Update 2)
I wrote a blog post explaining in detail how to make VS 2012 look like VS 2010 as much as possible. I will summarize it here.
Replace the new monochrome icons with the old ones and make the menu icons lowercase.
For this you need both the 2010 and 2012 versions installed and the Visual Studio Icon Patcher tool. Start the tool (it's a cmd line application) and enter extract, then inject and finally menus.
Change the color theme to blue.
Download the Visual Studio 2012 Color Theme Editor, go to "Tools - Customize Colors" and select the blue theme.
Final result:
It is not exactly like VS2010 but it gets pretty damn close.
I have a problem with colors of code assist. It looks like that: http://ciemborowicz.pl/pub/aptana.png (right bottom corner). I tried to change these colors in General > Appereance > Colors and Fonts, but it doesn't work. How can I change them?
Click
Window -> Pereferences -> (+)Aptana Studio -> Themes
Select the theme:
Aptana Studio 2.x
Click
Apply -> OK
Restart Aptana and you should be good to go after that.
Have a look at
Pereferences >> Aptana Studio >> Themes
and check the Checkbox:
Enable Invasive Themes
I'm having the same problem, the cause is our desktop environment theme. The only solutions I've found so far are:
use a light theme in Aptana
use a gtk2 theme in Gnome or Lxde
I didn't try it on xfce. I'm trying to find another solution.
