In eclipse, when your cursor is placed on a method (or other things), other places the method exists are highlighted. I'd like to change the color of this highlight, but after scouring the eclipse preferences many times in all 3 places, I have yet to find it.
Any of you Eclipse gurus know where to find this option?
Thank you!
The answer is
If you're using eclipse with PHP package and want to change highlighted colour then there is slight difference to above answer.
- Right click on highlighted word
- Select 'Preferences'
- Go to General > Editors > Text Editors > Annotations. Now look for "PHP elements 'read' occurrences" and "PHP elements 'write' occurrences". You can select your desired colour there.
1 - right click the highlight whose color you want to change
2 - select "Properties" in the popup menu
3 - choose the new color (as coobird suggested)
This solution is easy because you dont have to search for the highlight by its name ("Ocurrence" or "Write Ocurrence" etc), just right click and the appropriate window is shown.
right click the highlight whose color you want to change
select "Preference"
->General->Editors->Text Editors->Annotations->Occurrences->Text as Hightlited->color.
Select "Preference ->java->Editor->Restore Defaults
For those working in Titanium Studio, the item is a little different: It's under the "Titanium Studio" Themes tab.
The color to change is the "Selection" one in the top right.
