Hi guys!

We want to change the background color of our Xtext Editor, because when it is readonly we want to give the user a clear feedback, that he cannot change anything.

Is it possible to change the background color of an editor in Eclipse programmatically?

Thanks for any help =)

You can change editor colours using CSS, which is how the dark theme does it. You might ask on the Xtext forums as they may have a different approach.
