Syntax Highlighting doesn't take

<< < (2/3) > >>

Yes, the config is the same for almost everything.

To check if cb is crashing start it from terminal. If you see something like "blabla segmentation fault blabla", then it is crashing.

I tried running cb from the terminal and it looks just fine. Its starts out with:

Initialize EditColourSet .....
Initialize EditColourSet: done.
Loading menubar...

---etc---

and then on exit, ends with:

Deinitializing plugins...

There are no error messages of any kind.

I thought there might be more than one copy of default.conf floating around somewhere else in the filesystem, but "locate" didn't find any that could be connected with cb, so that's not the problem.

I think for now I'll just let it go and live with it. Thanks for all the suggestions.  :)

Created an account just to say I am having a similar issue.  Except for me, the settings are not taking at all.  When I click Settings>Editor>Syntax Highlighting I can see all of my themes there and the colors change in the example text when I select different themes.  Once I pick a theme and click "ok" my theme is never applied.

As I have terrible vision (that can't be fixed with glasses), light text on a dark background is much easier on my eyes.  I would love if someone could share some insight into why my colors are not changing.

Can you post the exact steps you do? OS and C::B versions?
Most helpful it will be if you can post a video.

I am using Ubuntu 14.04, Code::Blocks 16.01 and I followed the Linux steps on this website: http://tafhim.blogspot.co.uk/2010/08/exporting-and-importing-codeblocks.html
