Eclipse dark theme bug after uninstalling


I installed the dark theme for Eclipse but since I didn't like it, I uninstalled it. But what happened was this.The background of the text editor remains black after uninstalling the theme

The background of the text editor remains black after uninstalling the theme although the text color is the original from the standard white background again

(If I switch the workspace the background becomes normal, thus, I guess, it does have something to do with the .plugins folder inside the .metadata folder of the workspace)

Any ideas?


Solution

  • What do you mean by installing a theme? You can easily change the theme through the Eclipse preferences by: Preferences > General > Appearance. Inside the Appearance menu should be a place where you can change the theme.
