How do I change the font color in HANA Studio SQL Editor?

kulu
Explorer

I am using the standard dark theme because the market place installation always fails.

How would I change the font color of the SQL Editor?

I really need a working dark mode, my eyes hurt after using the all white screen for hours.

Thanks in advance

Unfortunately, the editors used for HANA SQL are not the standard Eclipse editors (where the settings could be found under "Basic" in the "Colors and Fonts" settings dialog window).

Instead, HANA Studio uses its own editor and does not provide any options to change the specific syntax highlighting colours.

An exception to that is the CDS editor where you can pick and choose colors for different syntax elements.

However, if you just want a dark-theme that works you can simply use the approach I described in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60316748/sap-hana-dark-theme-change-sql-script-text-colors-synta....

Basically, you install a 3rd party tool (Darkest Dark Theme with DevStyle from Genuitec) into the HANA Studio eclipse and that takes care of the colors.

I haven't been able to find an option that allows you to change the syntax highlighting. I've searched through all the preferences for about 30 minutes.
