A fork of this plugin has been donated and merged in the main Eclipse platform repository. Starting from Eclipse Luna, you'll find it preinstalled as the new default dark theme of Eclipse!
You can use this repository to get the latest development version.
Step by Step Guide to Setup and Install Apache Tomcat Server in Eclipse Development Environment (IDE) Last Updated on December 20th, 2020 by App Shah 76 comments Eclipse is a very powerful development environment for Java. I downloaded the new Eclipse Luna (ver. 4.4) and changed to Dark Theme, but the code editor is not changing. See the screen-shot: I tried this on MAC, Windows and Linux, always the same result. Click the big downward pointing arrow underneath the Download eclipse-cpp-luna-R-win32.zip from: The site named here, in purple to the right of the arrow: United States Columbian University (http) is the random one chosen by the download page this time; yours may differ. M2e provides comprehensive Maven integration for Eclipse. You can use m2e to manage both simple and multi-module Maven projects, execute Maven builds via the Eclipse interface, and interact with Maven repositories. M2e makes development easier by integrating data from a project’s Object Model with Eclipse IDE features. With m2e, you can use Maven within Eclipse in a natural and intuitive.

Requirements
- Eclipse 4.2+
Installation
Eclipse Marketplace:
← Drag this button to your Eclipse workbench to install; Update site:
Or download this plugin by using
Help > Install New Software..
and add the update site:Manual:
Or download moonrise_0.8.9.jar package and put it into your Eclipse
dropinsplugins
folder;Restart Eclipse and go to
Window > Preferences > General > Appearance
;Select MoonRise (standalone) or, for a little better tabs decoration, install Eclipse 4 Chrome Theme from marketplace or from here and select MoonRise; Race 1 wave 85 font free.

Syntax highlighting scheme:
You can find the one used in the screenshot here:
Email grabber 2 keygen. RainbowDrops.epf (most accurate and with wider support for plugins, download and import it with Eclipse built-in Preferences import:
File > Import..
then selectGeneral > Preferences
);or RainbowDrops.xml (download and import it with Eclipse Color Theme Plugin);
or here;
Fine-tuning:
There are some settings that can be changed only from the Eclipse Preferences window and that override the theme's settings by default:
Change the colors for Content Assist:
Go to
Window > Preferences > General > Appearance > Colors and Fonts
then change the colors forBasic > Content Assist background color
andBasic > Content Assist foreground color
(eg. foreground color: #DDD, background color: #333);Change the colors for Console:
Go to
Window > Preferences > Run/Debug > Console
and modify the colors as you like (eg. Standard Out text color: #DDD, Background color: #333);Change the colors for Javadoc:
Go to
Window > Preferences > General > Appearance > Colors and Fonts
then change the colors forJava > Javadoc view background
. Note that the foreground color cannot be changed and depends on system font color.
Trouble-shooting:
Problem | Solution |
---|---|
The font of the title of the tabs is different | Ensure that on your machine is installed Segoe Print font then open the downloaded jar package with an archive explorer, open /themes/css/moonrise-ui-standalone.css , search for any occurrencies of font-family property and change its value to Segoe Print (or what ever you prefer), then save/update the jar archive. |
The size of the title of the tabs is different | Eclipse does not scale it with a DPI-Aware policy. Open the jar package downloaded with a file archiver, open /themes/css/moonrise-ui-standalone.css , search for font-size property and modify its value according to your needs. |
The label of the checkboxes has a color difficult to read | It's related to a SWT bug, use a system theme that has lighter font color for buttons. |
The text of the buttons has a color difficult to read (MAC-OSX) | It's related to a SWT bug, try this 'patched' version if you have this issue (no more needed for v0.8.4+). |
After updating the plugin, it isn't loaded as expected | Eclipse seems to use some sorts of internal resources caching that don't work always very well. To ensure that it's not an issue related to the new plugin version, create a new workspace and import your projects here, or try with a freshly downloaded Eclipse release. |
Notes:
Currently this theme uses the CSS-SWT engine introduced in the 4.2 version of the Eclipse Platform and should provide a dark style for each GUI widget that can be handled with the last version of the Eclipse SDK. This plugin has been tested with the main Eclipse Development Tool packages on Linux distributions, Windows and OSX and with the following Eclipse releases:
- Luna (4.4)
- Kepler (4.3.x)
- Juno (4.2.x)
It works best with a dark system theme since currently the look of some GUI widgets cannot be overriden directly in Eclipse. The more noticeable issues related to SWT are the ScrollBar
widgets, the Table
headers/lines and the arrows to fold/unfold contents that cannot be styled. As minor issues there are Button
background color on Windows and OSX that cannot be customized (on Windows checkboxes/radio controls do not inherit font color) and some other little bugs related to the CSS engine that makes the customizations harder and unwieldy. Aside from that, the theme currently might not look perfect on each platform, but should be fully useable on all of them. The Eclipse CSS engine is still under improvement.
