![]() The theme files are located under a subfolder of the Arduino IDE installation folder. This can be useful for improving the visual accessibility or just for aesthetic purposes. ![]() ![]() >** select the downloaded file **> Open**īy editing a few files the appearance of the Arduino IDE can easily be modified to your liking. **Sketch > Include Library > Add ZIP Library. >** select the downloaded file **> Open** Packaged as a library in order to define all possible keywords. As a computer programmer, do you prefer Light Theme or Dark Theme when you code. I've done my best to document the theme properties here: per1234/ThemeTest/blob/master/README.md#theme-settings-documentation ThemeTestĭocumentation and Sketches for testing () IDE themes. I've been calling the "message box" a "tooltip". It's probably just using the same theme properties as used in the editor for that text. It looks like some other theme properties are being reused there since obviously the colors aren't hardcoded. That "message box" feature is more recent than any change to the theme files (it was only introduced in Arduino IDE 1.8.2) so you won't find theme settings specifically for it. Because face it, Microsoft still sucks in many ways.Question - what is the term for the message box? (Which is fine, just making note of it.) The other thing is, I can only assume installing a VSCode theme in something besides VSCode, or just using the “Visual Studio Code Marketplace” for non-Microsoft software violates some Microsoft terms of service or license or such. Two words of warning though, some of the themes in the “marketplace” are commercial, or at least “nagware” and will bug you about paying for them. You can find themes in the Visual Studio Code Marketplace because VSCode also uses Electron. Here's some documentation and a test sketch if you want to modify the Arduino IDE theme: GitHub GitHub - per1234/ThemeTest: Documentation and a testing sketch for modifying. Oh, and one more thing… If you don’t like any of the (limited) themes in the Arduino IDE you can add your own. Contribute to per1234/ino-themes development by creating an account on GitHub. I seriously think the greatest advance in software in the past lustrum has been searchable preferences. You can also search for things, like “font” or whatever. ![]() If you type “User Set” you’ll see “User Settings” and you can click on it.Īnd Bingo! You’ve got access to the full list of stuff you can change and adjust. You can scroll and click on something or type in something to filter it a bit more. Close and re-open Arduino IDE MacOS: Navigate to /Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/Java/lib/ Rename theme folder to theme.bak. arduino/theme folder to the C:/Program Files (x86)/Arduino/lib/ directory on your local machine. On macOS hit Command-Shift-P (on Windows it’s probably Window Key-Shift-P, and Linux same, but whatever you folks call the GUI key there.)Īnyway, after hitting those three keys you should see a scrollable and searchable list of stuff. Windows: Navigate to C:/Program Files (x86)/Arduino/lib/ Rename theme folder to theme.bak. There are a few things you can change, but wait, there’s more! It’s just hidden. The important thing is, if you’ve looked at the preferences for the IDE, you’ll see… not a lot. ![]() If you don’t know what that is, it probably doesn’t matter. Surprise, it’s another piece of software based on Electron. The Arduino IDE 2 has been out for a while, and I’ve gotten used to it. ![]()
