Pycharm File Status Highlights (VCS)
Answered
Hi,
I am using Pycharm 2018.1, upgraded from Pycharm 2017.3, coupled to Perforce VCS. According to the Pycharm 2018.1 documentation, unversioned files should appear in Brown, and files modified without checkout in light brown. However unversioned files appear in light red, and files modified without checkout don't change color.
If I go to Settings/Preferences dialog (⌘,), under Version Control | File Status Colors, I don't see any entry neither for "unversioned" nor "modified without checkout". Instead, I see only "unknown" (light red)
Is this normal?
Thanks
Daniel

Please share a screenshot illustrating the issue.
This first screenshot illustrates the Settings/Preferences dialog (⌘,), under Version Control | File Status Colors in my system. I don't see any entry neither for "unversioned" nor "modified without checkout". Instead, I see only "unknown" (light red)
This second screenshot shows unversioned files in light re ("unknown"). According to the Pycharm 2018.1 documentation, they should be brown ("unversioned")
Thank you very much,
Daniel
Thanks for the screenshot. The documentation actually mentions the file colors used with the Light (default) theme. These colors are bad for Darcula, so with Darcula other colors are used. I'll submit a request to techwriters to document darcula colors as well.
As for the Unknown, it is the internal status that corresponds to the Unversioned, for some reason it is shown in the Interface. We`ll fix it as well, thanks.
