Hello,

I am new to code::blocks and this is my first topic in this forum. I did a little bit search about this problem, but nothing really relevant.

The problem is about the error messages shown in Build Messages pane of the program. These errors are in red colour. When you highlight an error, the highlight colour and text colur are very close, make it very difficult to read the text. see the snapshot.

I tried to check the Editor preferences, but found nothing. Anyone can help please? (I am using Linux Ubuntu)

What is the theme you're using and what is the C::B version?

The problem in you image is that the highlight uses a gradient (from white to black) and the text color is white, thus it is hard to read.
(most of the time I ignore long posts)

I use Code::Beans 10.05 and I haven't change the default theme. I don't know how to change it.
I tried to find a way to change these colours, but no success.

Thanks a lot! I didn't know that this colour is controlled by Ubuntu theme. I kept trying Code::Blocks options!  :D
