Help identifying color settings
Followed by 2 people
I am enhancing a theme I use for Pycharm. I am desperately searching for two options and can't find them.
1. In the Terminal: If I set an option with "-" eg. "git commit -m" the text becomes dark grey which is hard to read. That seams to be the case for all themes.
2. If I am in a jupyter notebook and look on an output with a table. There is a bright background highlighting for the row the mouse is over. This is different from the color if Iselect items in the table.
I checked at least for point 1. that this color is identical in all themes so I guess there is no ui option to set it. I actually don't need an ui option but would be completely fine with knowing the labels for those two colors to change them in a theme.

Hello,
Do you have any custom UI plugins installed? If yes, please try disabling them. ( **File | Settings | Plugins** click the gear icon and choose "Disable all downloaded plugins").
What version are you running? Could you please attach a couple of screenshots?
I disabled everything, but it remains unchanged. It's Pycharm 2022.3.1 Professional Edition on Windows. Build #PY-223.8214.51, built on December 20, 2022.
The -m is hard to read and stays the same, no matter what theme I use:
It might be fine for bright themes, but really bad for dark themes.
Here you can see the bright background in jupyters table output with mouseover. The dark red is the actual selection background. I can't find a corresponding setting.
Edit: on another machine with linux running I don't have the issue with the console and "-m" etc. I can't test the notebook issue though, since I don't own professional privately.
Please upload your logs folder zipped from ***Help | Collect logs and Diagnostic Data*** to the FTP

Guess I can't do that from my work pc. Anyway I guess I found at least the issue for the terminal. It seams to be related with color scheme of powershell and there are other tickets open regarding that. This explains why I don't see it on linux.
Regarding the notebook issue, I can't try it out on private machine, since it's a professional version feature.
The color scheme does not look as one of default one, I assume this is a third-party plugin setting. Go to
**File | Settings | Plugins** and under "Installed" check the not bundled plugins. If this is a third-party plugin, then it is wise to report the issue to the plugin's vendor.
As mentioned, I want to improve a third party color theme. But I am unable to identify the correct label to set this color to something more usable.
If it helps the color seems to stem from default theme IntelliJ Light and it appears to have the value #EDF5FC or in RGB 237, 245, 252
If anybody wonders. The field is named:
Table.hoverBackground
