I am using Arduino IDE 2.0.3. When compiling code if there is an error it shows on a black background with a red font, that is hard for me to read. Can I change either the background or the font? Looking within the IDE I don't see how and not seeing anything on the internet. TIA

    Does it help if you select another theme? You can change the theme from the preferences. Open the Preferences dialog with `Ctrl/Cmd`+`,` and choose another theme, press OK. – dankeboy36 Jan 17 '23 at 21:13
  • Wow, now I feel stupid. Themes did not even enter my mind. Thank you for the suggestion and thank you for not point out that my question was pretty stupid. – user224844 Jan 18 '23 at 17:18
  • Great! Suppose you or anybody else wants to install additional themes into the Arduino IDE, reference [this](https://forum.arduino.cc/t/personal-themes/1024606/2) excellent guide. The IDE does not yet support custom themes natively, but it's possible to install them as VS Code extensions manually. For the install guide, the credit goes to [in0](https://forum.arduino.cc/u/in0). – dankeboy36 Jan 18 '23 at 20:16
  • custom themes in v2.0.3 appear to be broken ... use 2.0.1 or nightly build – jsotola Jan 19 '23 at 16:48
