Colour schemes in devtools for SM 2.45
I noticed (after extracting the default theme stylesheets) that there are supposed to be 3 different colour schemes for the web developer tools in SeaMonkey 2.45, but I can see no way to change the theme when using the browser console. How do you change the theme?

Click the "cog" icon in the top right corner of the developer tools frame/window. If you mouse over the cog, the tooltip says Toolbox Options. One of the sections is labeled Themes, in which you can select "Dark", "Light" or "Firebug".
But then again, I may be wrong.

Hmm, interesting. The heading of the toolbox reads "Default Firefox Developer Tools" so apparently the application name is somewhere hardwired in those devtools.
Edit: That's options.selectDefaultTools.label, I'll see if something is pending already and work out a patch tomorrow otherwise.

The light theme was a little bit too light for me at first. Maybe this will come in handy for someone else.
Might not work well with dark GTK themes though.

Code: Select all
/* userChrome.css */
.theme-light .devtools-tabbar {
background: threedface !important;
border-top: 1px solid threedshadow !important;
border-bottom: 1px solid threedshadow !important;
}
.theme-light .theme-toolbar,
.theme-light .devtools-toolbar,
.theme-light .devtools-sidebar-tabs tabs,
.theme-light .devtools-sidebar-alltabs,
.theme-light .cm-s-mozilla .CodeMirror-dialog {
background: threedface !important;
border-color: threedshadow !important;
}
.theme-light .devtools-tab {
border-color: threedshadow !important;
}
.theme-light .devtools-tab[selected],
.theme-light .devtools-tab[selected]:hover:active {
background-color: Highlight !important;
color: HighlightText !important;
}

The "Firebug" theme looks best IMO (picking from the default options, at least), also goes well with the MozillaZine colors.

Thanks for the info. I had forgotten how to use the devtools since I gave up using Firefox. The dark theme is much better for me.
