[Feature Request]: Change color of Heading

Open pulsatorius opened this issue 7 months ago • 4 comments

Feature request description

I want to be able to change the coloring of the headings.

Background

I don't like the coloring of the headers in Ubuntu 24.04. The white text on orange are hard to read. I also find it hard on the eyes. In the attached picture the strenuous orange is boxed in with red. I find the orange underlines, boxed in with green, fine.

The orange is a system colour. Not something that is hard coded by CodeLite. However, you can hide these captions by hitting Ctrl-F11 (try doing it multiple times if it does not work on the first try). You can hide / show various parts of the UI elements from the menu bar: View

BTW, this is a screenshot of an old version of CodeLite. I highly recommend to upgrade.

That will help. Is the text colour a system colour? What System colour is used?

I might stop using apt for CodeLite in the future, but not right now. Can I have multiple installations of CodeLite at the same time?
