Hi,

i was looking forward to use solarized but i'm not sure if my intellij is doing something wrong or it is the expected result.

I can only see, more or less, 3 colors.

I'm using intellij ultimate, newest version for java code on arch linux. I imported the settings by using the settings.jar

I think this looks as expected. If you open a Java class with e.g. static fields or string literals you should see more colors.

You can also go to the Preferences dialog and look under Editor -> Color Scheme -> Java to see whether it matches this:

In my opinion, this theme is extremely bland. It needs a lot more color, which is why I am avoiding it.
