Change 'fixes' background color in eclipse

Question

I've been trying to change the background color for the 'quick-fixes' pop-up (the pop up that lists ways to fix an error) in eclipse juno. Currently the color is black and the text is blue which makes it very hard to read.

I cant find the correct way to change the color. Please help. Its really annoying to squint and have to read blue text on a black background.

Answer 1

This was driving me nuts as well, here is the fix.

• Go to preferences.

• Search for "Annotations"

  for each Annotation Type:
  
     if "Text as" == "Highlighted" and Color == black:
  
         Set the color to light or uncheck "Text As"
  

In this screen shot, I am fixing Occurrences.

The problem I show to the left is the "Matching Tags" annotation which had the same problem.

Answer 2

You can change the color of the text in the pop-up.

In windows you can go Control Panel, search for colors and metrics and then select Change window colors and metrics. In the item menu select Hyperlinks and change the Color.

EDIT: This fix is valid for Windows 7. Windows 10 does not have the option to change Hyperlinks color.
