Updated to latest version as of today. I got distracted between pressing “Update Now” and authorizing the osascript macOS prompt. Since I didn’t remember what had caused a script to launch I denied permission. Now it seems like the color theme of my sublime text changed from the usual dark to a kind of blue.
If you updated from Sublime Text 3 to Sublime Text 4 (the About dialog will show no version number but a build number in the 4000’s) then this is expected behaviour.
In Sublime Text 4, the default color scheme changed from Monokai to Mariana; Monokai is a darker color scheme whereas Mariana is more blue.
Monokai is still present; use UI: Select Color Scheme from the command palette and choose Monokai from the list to return to the previous color scheme.
In addition, you may notice that the cursor is slightly different now.
// Valid values are "smooth", "phase", "blink" and "solid". Previous
// versions of Sublime Text used "smooth" by default.
"caret_style": "solid",
// These settings control the size of the caret
"caret_extra_top": 4,
"caret_extra_bottom": 4,
"caret_extra_width": 1,
The defaults for these settings used to be smooth, 2, 2 and 1 respectively, if you’d like to return to that default as well.
Thank you! Than answers the first question then. I’m still not sure about this, though:
Although I have a Mac, it’s an older one and I’ve never seen this. As such I can’t advice on that, but if Sublime works then I wouldn’t worry about it in the short term. Alternately, delete the app and manually install it again.
