Title: Change the background color
Post by: Phrosen on December 21, 2015, 06:10:22 pm

Hello.

I wanted to change the background color, so I googled, found some .config file and a tutorial on how to do it, followed it and managed to change the background color from white to some dark grey. -So far so good!

Now to the issue:
If I in Code::Blocks press: File -> New -> Empty File (Ctrl-Shift-N)
I get a new, empty file with the default (white) colored background.

If I save the file it snaps to the dark grey I'm using. But while it's new and unsaved it has the default white color.

Is it possible to change that white to the same dark grey that I'm using when using the software?
Thanks in advance.

EDIT: I'm using Code::Blocks 13.12

I have a patch for this problem.
But it has to wait for the next release before it enters svn.

You can commit if you like, but ensure to mark them as "not to be merged".
