Syntax color in Eclipse with the ABAP Development Tools Plugin

[Vlad_Ghitulescu]

Hello!

I'm just doing a openSAP-course ("Writing Testable Code for ABAP") and was wondering about the colorful syntax

My Eclipse looks rather plain boring by comparison:

Where do you set this in Eclipse?

Thanks!

Regards,
Vlad

It’s in the language specific syntax colouring options, not sure it it was under general or project specific settings (no system in front of me). Window > settings

Or

Project > settings

There are threee places in eclipse to configure look and feel, which is why I gave up on customising mine beyond the defaults, but I do usually switch these on.

Hi, Mike!

🙂 I've just switched off the PC - I'll check this first thing tomorrow and report the findings 🙂

Thanks!

I've found it in:

Windows - Preferences - ABAP Development - Editors - Source Code Editor - ABAP Keyword Colors

However it's by far not complete, so the ADD button will be in use for a while… 🙂

Thanks again, Mike!
