Poor colour choice made by Adaptive theme - overrideable?

#1

I like Sublime’s new “Adaptive” application theme apart from one thing. For the bottom pane (e.g. Build Results), it’s choosing a highlight/selection colour (1) and background colour (2) that are close to identical, making it hard to see which item has focus when using keybindings for the next_result and previous_result commands.

Can I override something about the Theme - Default package, or add something to my colour scheme, that will change the colour that the Adaptive theme picks for the background and/or highlight/selection in the bottom pane?

(I don’t want to resort to modifying the colours that I use in the main editing buffer to get a knock-on effect, since I’m very happy with them as they are)

@frou You should be able to copy the adaptive theme file to your user folder to override the default and adjust it accordingly.

An addition: you only need to include top-level array elements that you Actually modify. They will then override.

What do I need to tweak in Theme - Default/adaptive/ to influence the background colour of the FindResults/BuildResults area?

Seems to me like something in the // Panels section in Adaptive.sublime-theme might be it but I can’t find something that has an effect.
