notepad++ highlight colours

Question

I like the highlighting feature in notepad++, but when using certain themes that default purple and yellow make the text unreadable, and it seems I cannot change it through style configurator. Does anyone know where I would find the option to change these? It's making working with dark themes hard.

running ANSI on XP

actually I was able to change the colors through Style configurator I used tags match highlight and tags atribute

Answer 1

For starter, have you tried 'Settings' > 'Style Configuration' and in pop up, find 'Select theme' drop down box. Choose a theme color that suits you. For example, I'm on 'Deep Black'.
