Build Identifier: 20090621-0832 This is a very small change, but which would improve the usability a lot. Make the annotation "occurences" in the vertical ruler darker so that people older than 25 years also can see the occurences-annotiations. ;-) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open a Java-File 2. Click on a variable 3. In the vertical ruler you can see all the occurences of the variable in the file
I'm sorry but the current colors have been chosen and tested widely. Of course each color has some "enemies", that's why it's a preference. There are no plans to change a well known color that's in use for a long time.
Hi Dani > Of course each color has some "enemies" It's not about if I like the color or not. It's about whether it's easy to spot on the vertical ruler. It's definitely not easy to spot on the vertical ruler. (I can upload a screenshot if you want me to) So since this is not going to change I see 2 possibilities: -fiddle around with the contrast-settings of my screen -change the color in the preferences --> Can you give me a hint how I can change this preference for all Eclipse-Instances and all workspaces? I would be grateful.

I would be grateful. The instances are not important as all the settings are in your workspaces. You either have to change the color one by one or import the preference(s) into each workspace.
