Eclipse Javadoc Background Overrides Default

Question

My default workspace on Eclipse set the Javadoc Background color to black and it is impossible to read the text:

Javadoc black background

I have already tried to "restore defaults" at Window -> Preferences -> General -> Appearance -> Colors and Fonts, but it works until I close the workspace. Next time I open it again, the problem returns:

Preferences Javadoc Background overrides default

I have tried to find the file inside workspace\.metadata\.plugins folder that set this configuration, but I didn't find. I also tried to find other solutions, but I only found solutions for Ubuntu OS, and I am on Windows 7 with an Oxygen.3A Eclipse.

Has anyone faced this problem?

Thanks in advance.

PS1.: New workspaces comes without the error.

PS2.: I work with lots of workspaces at work, so creating new ones is not an option, because it will take hours to reorganize them.

Answer 1

I solved this problem on Eclipse 2018-12 by changing to a theme other than "Classic." Once I did that and restarted Eclipse, it looked like it should.

Preferences->General->Appearance.

Make sure Enable theming is checked.

Select a different theme from Classic and restart Eclipse.
