Newbi colours question

[handyandy]

Hi, I’m new to modifying colours and themes so bear with me…
I’m using a fairly dark pallete and the problem I have is that in the LH folders listing the highlight on the file i’m editing is too dark and very difficult to see if the room lighting is bright.
How can I adjust this to make it easier to see?

Anything not in the main text editing area is controlled by the theme (which can in some cases defer to the color scheme of the active tab etc.)
To find out what selector to use to target an element for theming purposes, there is an API for logging the control tree where you click:

How can I customize these labels from the quick panel input?

Hi, did you try sublime.log_control_tree(True) https://www.sublimetext.com/docs/api_reference.html#module-sublime In the ST console? Control whether control tree logging is enabled. When enabled clicking with ctrl+alt will log the control tree under the mouse to the console.
