Showcase

When using Norway Today as the profile and Dark Metal as the Look & Feel, the editor doesn't look good if there is an error in the source code (see attachment).

I would say it would look better if the line would be redly underlined in the same way as when using standard theme setting.
Comment 1 Stanislav Aubrecht 2013-05-15 14:34:25 UTC 
It's a problem of the editor color schema, nothing to do with dark l&f theme.
Please reassign to appropriate product/component, thanks.

You can change profile, just go to Options-Font&Colors-Syntax-(Language:)AllLanguages(Category:)-Error

Change background to inherited value and change effects to wave and red color.
Comment 3 Martin Janicek 2013-05-16 12:44:59 UTC 
Would it be possible to make it as default value ?
Comment 4 Milutin Kristofic 2013-05-16 12:55:09 UTC 
If there is a few votes, I will change it. You can start discussion on forums, netcat.
Comment 5 Marian Mirilovic 2013-08-23 13:53:21 UTC 
Dark themes were moved to the NetBeans Update Center for NB 7.4

This is majorly annoying and even worse with debugging. It puts a light green background behind white or light gray text. It is unreadable and unusable!

Changing the defaults is also a nightmare as it requires changing 20+ settings for debugging / current program counter / broken breakpoint / Conditional breakpoint / etc.
Comment 7 Martin Balin 2016-07-07 07:30:24 UTC 
This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.

Thanks for your cooperation,
