    I really really like this theme! Thank you!
    I can’t figure out how I can customize the highlighting of class & id values to look like the other attribute values magenta too?
    Do you have a hint?
    Cheers

    @conrad

    I’m glad that you like it. Unfortunately I haven’t been play around the theme config for a while so I can’t give you an immediate answer, but I will look into it.

    Just to clarify, when you talk about class & id you do you refer to stylesheet coloring right?

    Thanks Vincent, the only thing that always fetches my attention is the different color & background *inside* the values of id and class attributes. the css color itself is really nice :)

    href and onclick (and any other attribute value I) is magenta and fits very nice inside the code, only class and id values have a dark purple background and yellow fonts – I just can’t figure out where to set those colors.. (I recognized a special highlighting of those values in other themes too). for me, these two attributes don’t need extra highlighting..

    I will look into it, should let you know tomorrow if I can (or cannot) figure it out.

  7. 7 Conrad said at 22:29 on June 25th, 2010:

    Thanks a lot

  8. 8 Vincent Lu said at 01:48 on June 26th, 2010:

    Ok here is what you can do to change it:

    Fonts & Colors tab -> Profile: Oblivion Revival -> Syntax tab -> Language: Cascading Style Sheet -> Category: Selector -> (righthand) Foreground: Custom Red: 255 Green: 111 Blue: 242 -> Background: Custom Red: 46 Green: 52 Blue: 54

    The change will also impact your stylesheet coloring making all css selectors to be colored in magenta-ish color (255/111/242) which is the same color to css value (e.g. background-image: url value will be color the same).

    The root of this coloring problem is that Oblivion Revival theme tries to make everything that is a “value” in magenta-ish color: stylesheet class/id in a html file is a value, but in the actual css file they are really only a selector. Netbeans doesn’t offer a method to distinguish this. So the choice is either treat them in both html and css as value, or treat them as something different (which is what Oblivion Revival theme does).

    Thanks!
    Great theme!

    What font do you use?

  13. 13 Vincent Lu said at 09:20 on September 17th, 2010:

    The one you see in the screenshot is consolas which should come with Windows Vista and 7. The font rendering is a bit different on different OS too: it looks smoothier on Windows Vista and 7 compared to Linux.

    I also recommend trying Droid Sans (Mono) font which is free from Android Project.

    Thx for the colors.
    One issue; in java Mark Occurences background is light-yellow which makes it impossible to see what you’re working with, I have it as 70,70,35

  15. 15 Vincent Lu said at 21:05 on October 26th, 2010:

    @tusam

    Yes in Netbeans each language requires its own color scheme (e.g. java php ruby python etc) and my scheme at this point as provide color profile for PHP/CSS/Javascript/HTML.

    If you have come up your own color profile for Java (in the same color scheme to this color profile) please upload it somewhere and I will merge them together.

    Thanks for this nice theme !

    I can not figure how you changed the whole background color for Javascript in php file but I would like to do the same for HTML/CSS (having a background color for each language in php file). Could you tell me how to do that ?

  17. 17 Vincent Lu said at 20:05 on November 3rd, 2010:

    @phw
    In syntax tab select HTML language, and there is an item called “Css Embedded in HTML” and “Javascript Embedded in HTML”.

    Don’t think you can color the background for the HTML itself in PHP though.

  18. 18 phw said at 20:44 on November 3rd, 2010:

    @vincent
    Thank you for your answer.
    You succeed to color javascript background in php file but not html background in php ? Is it a kind of lack in the configuration module ? (maybe we could color php background in php file :-) ?)

  19. 19 Vincent Lu said at 21:07 on November 3rd, 2010:

    @phw

    yes netbeans doesn’t seem to provide the option to color html background in php.

    thank you so much for this great theme.
    i just changed the yellow color to be less bright. used this one [213,216,0]

    i would like to use this theme on aptana 3. can you convert it to textmate theme plz. thanks.

  31. 31 Vincent said at 13:03 on November 1st, 2011:

    @alhoseany
    I don’t use Aptana, feel free to build one based on the colors yourself.

    You can find the colors profile here:
    http://coder.kidsreturn.org/2010/12/oblivion-scheme/

    Or try JetBrains products, which by far is the most superior IDEs I’ve used.

  32. 32 Joenas said at 15:45 on December 14th, 2011:

    This is my favorite theme. And so far the greatest!

    Thanks for taking your time in creating this.
