One DarkArduino doesn't work with Arduino IDE 1.8.13 #6

Closed dietzste closed 3 years ago

Hey there! I really would like to use this dark theme! I think it's one of the best themes out there! Unfortunatly, overwriting the theme folder doesn't seem to work anymore with Arduino IDE 1.8.13. This also applys to JeffThompsons Dark Arduino Theme.

I also tried the suggested solution shown in this YouTube Video. It shows the zip-File in the theme drop-down menu, but when I select it and restart Arduino IDE, I still get the white theme.

As the the repo Readme suggest... the newest version of the Arduino IDE makes creating custom themes trickier - but the further explaination leaves me in the dark to be honest.

Can somebody help fixing this theme?

I followed those instructions but with 7-zip and it seems to work fine. OneDarkArduino.zip

You are right! I seem to have missed the step, where I had to zip the theme folder again. My bad.

@Docteh Which tool did you use to create the zip-file of the subfolder?

Docteh commented 3 years ago

I just go into the theme folder, select all of the files, and in the right click menu I get an option from 7-zip to add to a .zip

@Docteh. Sorry, I meant the zip-link you provided above. I'm asking because the normal interface of github only privides - as far as I know - links of the entire repo. Your link is a zip-link of a subfolder though. Which tool or webpage did you use to create the subfolder zip file link?

Oh, that. I just uploaded the zip off of my computer into the github comment box.

😃 - OK!

OK, to close the issue - the solution as shown in the Youtube-Video by FabryStyle works as follows:

  1. Download the zip link provided by @Docteh above OR
    • Download OneDarkArduino repo
    • Unzip file
    • Zip content of the theme folder
  2. Paste zip file into Arduino lib folder (e.g. in Windows: C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\lib\theme)
  3. Start Arduino program: choose Preferences > Theme and select zip file
  4. Restart Arduino
  5. Done
