why the color scheme for standard functions is the same as for my custom functions
Answered
A couple of days ago, I upgraded my IntelliJ to version 2023.1 #built 28th March 2023, and my color scheme changed. Initially, I thought the problem was mine because I had been using my Monokai Color Scheme, an older version. However, I downloaded a few other schemes and even tried the default color scheme, but the problem still persists.
I am confused about why the color scheme for standard functions is the same as for my custom functions.
Could you please help me resolve this issue?

Hello, kardebadas. As I see in the Monokai color scheme settings for PHP (
Settings | Editor | Color Scheme | PHP), all function and method calls are colored with the same color:To change it, you can uncheck the Inherit values from option and set up the color you prefer.
I already tried that...
Is changing the color for both
This was done intentionally: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WI-69042
You can change this by placing the caret into a built-in function => Help | Find Action | Jump to Colors and Fonts => change the foreground color for Predefined symbol.
I think the decision was not the most correct. They should have left the color system out of the updates. Or at least make it optional, now mandatory doesn't make any sense.
I think with these changes and forcing the use of the new UI until the end of the year, you are shooting yourself in the foot.
If I have to learn a new program, why not switch to VS Code?
Has anyone found a solution to separate colors for standard functions and custom/methods as was the case in previous versions?
