This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM Power Systems products, including IBM i. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.

When using the Dark theme, the options in the find-replace dialog which overlays LPEX are unreadable because the text is still colored for light themes. (See attachments.) Most other aspects of the RDi environment work well in the Dark theme, so the find-replace dialog should follow their lead.
Some users rely on having a mostly dark screen because it is more comfortable for their eyes. Having to live with a crippled find-replace feature or a too-bright screen is a tough spot to be in.

IBM Power Systems Development - RDi team
The CAAC has reviewed this requirement and recommends that IBM view this as a medium priority requirement that should be addressed. The behavior of the interface could be made more similar to what other users of eclipse experience elsewhere.
Background: The COMMON Americas Advisory Council (CAAC) members have a broad range of experience in working with small and medium-sized IBM i customers. CAAC has a key role in working with IBM i development to help assess the value and impact of individual RFEs on the broader IBM i community, and has therefore reviewed your RFE.

We have reviewed this requirement and we feel it would be a beneficial enhancement to the product. We hope to be able to add it to our development plans in the future.
The COMMON Europe Advisory Council (CEAC) has reviewed this requirement and recommends that IBM view this as a “nice to have” LOW priority feature.
Background: The CEAC members have a broad range of experience in working with small and medium-sized IBM i customers. CEAC has a crucial role in working with IBM i development to help assess the value and impact of individual RFEs on the broader IBM i community and has therefore reviewed your RFE.

Although the theme of this request is consistent with our business strategy, it is not committed to the release that is currently under development.
Personally, I think the LPEX editor, RSE and all associated bits & pieces should inherit from the Eclipse theme...
I shouldn't have to change eclipse, change LPEX...and then open an RFE for each parts that got missed by the LPEX team..
