How do you change the background colour in source code editors? I have tried:
Window > Preferences > General > Appearance > Theme set to dark mode
Window > Preferences > General > Editors > Text Editors > Annotations has nothing for the background
Window > Preferences > C/C++ > Build > Console only affects the consoles
Window > Preferences > C/C++ > Editor > Syntax Colouring doesn't has a background option
Window > Preferences > C/C++ > Editor lets you set a background colour, and applying it works, but as soon as you close the preferences window the old settings comes back.

Thanks AScha. Eclipse really is a rubbish IDE, I'm so glad so many companies decided to base their IDEs on it.

Thanks, but this doesn't work. When I install the theme and restart it does not appear in the list of installed extensions, and it is not selectable as a theme.

Thanks, this theme does seem to work.
