After an update to version 15.7.2, code lens displays partly unreadable text but only on light theme.
Any idea on how to fix this?
Option 1 :
Under Tools->Options-> Environment-> Fonts and Colors with Codelens selected under show settings for, change from any of the Code39Azalea fonts.
Option 2 :
Under Tools->Options-> Environment-> Fonts and Colors with Codelens selected under show settings for, Click use defaults, it should reset to calibri font.

I'm a light theme user, and I guess that makes me unpopular, but I'm sure there are still some light theme users out there. I have switched to VS2019 and the light theme (called Blue Theme) was a nightmare. It turned out it was an issue and the solution can be found in this thread.
My other question is the C++ syntax coloring in VS2019. It's just too many colors and makes it really hard for the eyes (once again if using the light theme).
I have looked but don't know where can I disable this new fancy syntax coloring and go back to VS2017's syntax coloring in VS2019. Any tips?
Here's a screenshot of what I have in VS2019:
I think it's a bit too much. I don't wanna see purple, green, red and brown.
As per this Microsoft link there is supposed to be this Color Scheme and it can be set to VS2017, as per this screenshot:
But for some reason I don't have it and I have just updated it and this what my Text Editor->C/C++->View looks like:
It looks the only way to solve this problem is to change the colors one by one. But you may ask, how do I come up with colors, I'm not a graphic/UI/UX designer? Here's how. You open the colors in VS2017 in Options->Fonts and Colors and select Text Editor in Show settings for:, and there when you scroll down you will see the colors for all C++ keywords.
That was Step 1. In Step 2 you go to the same dialog in VS2019, and one buy one change VS2019 settings to match those of VS2019. Having two monitors or one wide monitor helps.
Here's the screenshot:
I migrated from VS2017 to VS2019. One thing that I noticed in dark theme is that the keywords "for, if, return" are white in color. Before, they used to be blue.
I went to Environment -> Fonts and Colors. No matter what I change for the C++ fonts, these ones are always white. What display item should I be clicking to change them back to blue?
You can change the color for these keywords by going to
Tools -> Options.. -> Environment -> Fonts and Colors -> C++ Keyword - Control
and selecting the color of your choice.
Can someone shed light on how I can adjust the width of the scroll bars in Visual Studio. I mean the actual IDE itself and not code to do this in an application.
I have already adjusted the width of the windows explorer scroll bars (Windows 10) but this has no effect in the VS IDE.
Thanks in advance

An image of what I mean.
You can turn on the map view for vertical scrollbar in all languages settings. But it's scroll pace is different depending whether the current block is folded or not which is a little uncomfortable to use. So the quickest and smartest way in my opinion is to use the RockMargin extension. Works exactly like Sublime or VS Code minimap.
İn Version 2017.3 there is a cool feature called Current Line Expression, i have a problem with the "Dark with light editor" and "Dark" themes of visual studio 2017 , as you can see in the attached image, Resharper is using a very dark red colour in the text, which makes it hard to read when the background is black .
Is there any way i can change the background colour or the text colour ?
Thank you in advance .
This issue has been addressed already in the latest update (v.2017.3.1) which I've got today (December, 27th).
The background color on Dark Theme has certainly changed to a brighter color which now effectively makes the values much easier to read.
I haven't found any direct reference to this issue on the release notes, though.

https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issues?q=in:ReSharper%20Fix%20version:%202017.3.1%20
So, the advice would be, update to 2017.3.1 ASAP.
Hope this helps!
I want to use a light theme in WebStorm 2017.1 but for some reason the editor tabs are always dark.
I can change the font colour but that also changes it in the project tree view which has a white background.
The theme under Appearance is set to IntelliJ and the editor theme is set to default but I have tried it with many combinations.
Is this a bug or is there a setting I haven't found yet?
The issue was caused by the Material Theme plugin, disabled it and everything looks fine.
Thanks to #LazyOne for pointing me in the right direction.
