Hi all!
Has anyone successfully changed the color scheme on dreamweaver by changing the colors.xml file?
Im trying to change to a dark theme like this -
http://sramekdesign.com/dreamwea…but whenever I change the file, it changes the colors but doesnt look like it should at all.
The colors are way off. Ive tried several.I sometimes use sublime text, which is great and i love the monokai color scheme -
but i just like the ftp feature of dreamweaver among other stuff.
Cheers!

I had the same problem recently - I added the colours.xml file but it only changed colours not page backgrounds so looked horrible.
Then I edited an ASP (don't ask) page and it had a completely different colour scheme. I would love an answer to this as I am sick of my current colour scheme and it hurts my eyes.

Love the way everyone feels they have to apologise for using Dreamweaver. Its a good code editor.
- ha, i use the regex find/replace across open files wayyy too often to switch.kingsteven
- haha so trueHombre_Lobo
- ???? Every editor has that these days.
This is how out of touch Dreamweaver users areanimatedgif - fuck you ag, i've been trying to change off dreamweaver for years. and i use several other ides for non-web dev.kingsteven
- haven't come across many that find replace on all open files or in a directory and it's not a convoluted process like in eclipse.kingsteven
- eclipse. sublime text's multi find/replace is all cool but dung for any sort of practical purpose.kingsteven

tried this after switching back from sublime (ya heard me) and couldn't get it looking right (asp in particular)

- Tee-hee. People care what other people use as a code editor. Seriously?ETM

Dreamweaver is a great app.

Many studio's are still using Dreamweaver and they actually like it.

we still use DW. It's still a great app.

no luck search for other dreamweaver xml color styles?

DW is fine if you stick to the code editor... much prefer it to any other I have tried but thats probably because I started on it. FTP features are great as well. Along with other useful bits.
Who the fuck cares if you are productive and works for you?

Thanks for the help all!
Shame themes dont seem to work in Dreamweaver, I much prefer dark themes for code.And yeh Dreamweaver is all good!
I think it gets a bad rep form people who are new to web using all the options and design view, rather than coding by hand,
When used as a text program DW is great :DIf anyone finds any success in using dark themes please let me know! :P
