Description Jared Burns CLA 2004-02-17 16:24:13 EST 
Build 20040217
Linux-GTK

1. Window->Preferences->Workbench->Appearance
2. In the "Workbench Color Theme" group, select the checkbox that says "Use System Colors". 
Click OK to close the preferences.
3. Nothing changes. Restarting Eclipse doesn't help any either. After checking "Use System 
Colors" tabs are continued to be drawn the same bright blue color.

The problem isn't restricted to the system color option. The color preferences aren't honored, even 
if you set colors manually. Updated summary.

Gah. After restarting, the manual color theme is restarted. So there are two problems:

1. Views don't update for manual color settings in response to the preference change.
2. Views don't change colors when "Use System Colors" is selected.
