Background Color of Build Results Panel

#1

I’m using Soda Light with a dark (Twilight) color theme.

In ST2 the build results panel was a light background color, apparently driven by the theme, not the color scheme.
In ST3, it seems the build results panel is the same as the main editor background colors from the color scheme.

Is there any way to theme these elements separately in ST3? It looks very bad since Soda Light seems to expect a light window background for the build output panel.

Thanks for the pointer. On one hand, I’m impressed with the extent to which Sublime can be customized.

On the other hand, I think that this is probably a feature request. It’s a pretty brutish way just to change the color of a UI component. It works though, so I’m happy now…

But for the record, it would be a nice enhancement if:

  • The build window were explicitly theme-able by the tmTheme you’re globally using
  • The build system…err… system had “theme” parameter similar to the “syntax” parameter that’s already available

Thanks again for the immediate answer.
