[Bug]: Settings Sync messes the theme at start #377
Description
Activity
Sorry, I don't understand the issue or the steps here... can you provide a video showing what happens ?
The editor part has a colour at startup :/
After deactivating or activating a plugin from the category style sheets it is fixed
I have had this problem since upgrading to IDEA 2023.2
Screencast from 2023-07-29 09-58-37.webmHi @mallowigi, were you able to understand the problem?
It seems very strange to me 😬Might be related to the Settings Sync. Do you have it enabled?
Can you send me more information about your setup? OS, IDE, plugins...

on Aug 5, 2023 Hi! I'm experiencing the same problem on Windows, while everything works fine on MacOS. The project explorer changes, but the color scheme remains the default one.
It seems that the problem is specific to Material Darker, as Material Oceanic looks okay.
By the way, on my Mac, I have a version 8.9.1, while on Windows, it's a version 8.6.4, which is the latest available one

If I import settings (File - Manage IDE Settings - Import Settings), everything works fine (sync is disabled by default when you import settings). However, once I enable the sync, everything breaks again
p.s. on my mac sync is enabled

on Aug 14, 2023 It's actually very annoying. JetBrains started adding a combination of <theme,colorScheme> with sometimes weird values. I've started a settings sync from scratch and I can see some combinations like "Deep Ocean,Darcula"...
Reacted by Daniil Dubrava and IlyaIn that case, here's how to fix it:
When you have a misconfiguration between the Theme and the Color Scheme:
- Open Settings
- Go to Editor > Color Scheme
- Check that you are on the right color scheme (ex: if Moonlight, check that you are on Moonlight color scheme)
- If not, select Moonlight and click OK
But sometimes, there are also cases when a color scheme is duplicated on the user machine (it usually happens if you select a scheme bundled from the plugin, for example Night Owl, but don't have the plugin installed on the other machine. The settings sync will then download Night Owl but use Darcula colors). In that case, since it has the same name as the bundled color scheme, the IDE will pick that color scheme instead.
In that case, in the color schemes screen, check for superfluous color schemes, then press on the settings menu and select "Delete" for all that are involved.
