This there a way to change the color of spelling errors in Eclipse (Galileo)? The default red underlining is indistinguishable from the normal error underlining.
I'm trying to change the text color in Eclipse (version 3.7). From what I've read about this it seems I should be able to change the java editor text by going to window > preferences > general > appearance > colors and fonts, selecting java > java editor text and clicking "edit".
These fonts can be set via the General > Appearance > Colors and Fonts preference page. As well as these 4 fonts there are several other secondary font settings. These default to the text font. They can be found on the Colors and Fonts preference page: Eclipse uses colors as an information enhancement in many places.
All of these colors can be adjusted via the following preference pages: General > Appearance > Colors and Fonts > Basic (Error text, hyperlink text, active hyperlink text) General > Editors > Text Editors (Foreground, background and other appearance colors) General > Editors > Text Editors > Annotations (Text editors annotation colors)
You’ll be using The Eclipse Color Theme for this purpose. Just follow the steps below to change the theme of Eclipse. Open Eclipse and in the top menu go to Help->Install New Software. You’ll see a screen like the one below. Click on Add.
As mentioned in bug 157283, you can change the spelling error link:
Editors > Text Editors > Annotations, line "Spelling Errors"
The color you will choose for the "Native Problem Underline" will be different from the one used for regular "Errors".
