I do not know why but when I change the color scheme of the spyder editor (I have the latest version installed and I do it through preferences -> syntax coloring), the variable explorer's color remains the same:
Since this is very distracting for me I searched it and found something more like a package called QDarkStylesheet
that you can install and import, but it sounds a little tricky as I figured some people have reported several issues with it in GitHub! So, is there a straightforward way for making the variable explorer have the same dark color in spyder?
Go to View/Panes and select Variable Explorer. Show activity on this post. Show activity on this post. You can go to view then in view click on window layout then in that click on reset to spyder default which will give you the default layout of spyder.
The Variable Explorer shows the namespace contents (all global object references, such as variables, functions, modules, etc.) of the currently selected IPython Console session, and allows you to interact with them through a variety of GUI-based editors.
Some of the remarkable features of Spyder are: Customizable Syntax Highlighting. Availability of breakpoints (debugging and conditional breakpoints) Interactive execution which allows you to run line, file, cell, etc.
(Spyder maintainer here) Right now (May/2018) is not possible to make the coloring shown in the Variable Explorer follow the one in the Editor and IPython console.
However, we're working to make this possible for Spyder 4 (to be released in 2019).
