What is the way to change the color of the side bar (file browser)?
What do I need to add to my .tmTheme file to modify the defaults?
Using a dark theme the side bar can be too bright for my taste.
You want to go into your
~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 2/Packages/Default/Default.sublime-theme
(old version) or
~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 2/Packages/Theme-Default/Default.sublime-theme
(new version) and edit these things:
"class": "sidebar_container"
"class": "sidebar_tree"
"class": "sidebar_heading"
"class": "sidebar_label"
Therein you can change the RGB colors until you get what you want.
Here is a thread that discusses this in greater detail.

AGS is right but they recently changed the location of the default theme file.
As of now it is at Packages/Theme - Default/Default.sublime-theme
The "Packages/Default" folder contains other non-theme related files now.
Try installing the Soda theme. The dark theme has a nice dark side bar.

packagecontrol.io DefaultPlus for quick and easy
packagecontrol.io Seti_UX for adapt sidebar symbols etc ideas
Try installing Predawn theme maybe you like the look and feel of its theme https://github.com/jamiewilson/predawn
Sublime Text 2 Package Control ~ Theme Soda SolarizedDark. This requires some editing of Preferences Settings. Looks nice with built in Solarized (Dark).tmTheme.
Sublime side bar darkens nicely now, but you may find selection of side bar items is too muted. Settings edit? For example, to make Solarized (Dark).tmTheme code pane selections more visible:
<dict>
<key>name</key>
<string>Solarized (dark)</string>
<key>settings</key>
<array>
<dict>
<key>settings</key>
<dict> [edit/insert the following key-string lines]
<key>selection</key>
<string>#03151C</string>
<key>selectionBorder</key>
<string>#99ccff</string>
<key>inactiveSelection</key>
<string>#0099ff30</string>
This code pane colors Setting slightly further mutes side bar colors on Mac. Not a PC issue, since on my PC Theme Soda SolarizedDark does not work! But the edit of selection appearance for Solarized (Dark).tmTheme makes PC sidebar slightly brighter, opposite of Mac. Buggy?
I found that going to Preferences -> Theme brought up the command pallet for themes. when change to the Adaptive.sublime-theme the side bar changes to black.
This is also accessible through the command pallet. Press ctrl+shift+p then type 'theme' select the option 'UI: Select Theme' and again you can choose the Adaptive theme.

How to remove these vertical white lines in PhpStorm 2017.3?
They're called Vertical indent guides
Here's how to turn them off: go to Settings > Editor > Appearance and uncheck Show vertical indent guides
You might want to remove foreground on these guides instead of completly disable this feature, since something (either PhpStorm 2017.3 itself or Material Theme plugin) introduced this bug in the latest update.
Go to the Settings -> Editor -> Color Scheme -> General and look for the Guides section. Uncheck the Foreground option on Visual Guides or change its color from EEEEEE to 32424A. Hit Apply & Ok.
Now these guides should look the same as in 2017.2.

There's two ways to change colors in Xcode.
First is the "Fonts & Colors" tab in Xcode's preferences, which look like this:
That doesn't change the color of the files in the Project Navigator, though. To do that, in System Preferences there's a tab helpfully named "General", you can change the settings for your system in it. Here's what it looks like for me now:
I chose "Graphite", and that changes selected files in the Project Navigator to have gray surrounding the filenames.
So, the problem was on the system side. The wallpapers color mixed with color of IDE. I reduced transparency. So that was it.
I'm not sure what has happened, but this morning when I opened PhpStorm the background of the editor is now white even though the selected theme is still Darcula - any idea? It was all good last night - but now it's all white.
You are looking in the wrong place. The background color (and the code colors) is not determined by the theme, but by the scheme.
You can choose the scheme by going to Editor > Colors & Fonts:
You also have a preview of how the scheme will look like on every file type:
You have to set "scheme" in "editor->colors and fonts" to darcula.
There are several other dark editor schemes you could try.
Go to Preferences -> Colors & Fonts -> General -> Default Text -> Background Color and uncheck the inheritance box and select your color.
I had the same problem when I installed the new PHPStorm V10.
I recently moved to Sublime Text 3 for development and trying to figure out a way in which I can know whether a file is saved or not just by looking at it in the editor. For e.g.
Eclipse puts a star in front of the file name if there are unsaved changes
Notepad++ changes the tab color as red
Is there any such easy to see visual cue in Sublime Text 3 to know if a file has unsaved changes?
By default Sublime Text displays dot (•) instead of x used to close tabs when there are unsaved changes.
You can make this highlighting of modified tabs even more distinctive using following property which causes modified tabs to have different color:
{
"highlight_modified_tabs": true
}
The color of modified tabs with this property enabled will depend on the theme you are using. If you want to change it, either change the theme or change the color manually in your settings. See this answer for more details on that.
In Sublime text there is a indication on the tabs, a full circle is not saved, a cross (x) is a saved file, indicating that you could close it.

I have set up a WordPress website for a client and have found that the user cannot:
1) change font size
2) change the actual font
3) change colour of the font
for the text they enter in the WordPress admin section as there are no tools to do this in the WSIWYG text editor.
Any suggestions on how to achieve this, I have tried looking for a plugin that enables this but can't seem to find one.
Of course they can achieve this in the Text section through HTML but the users are not familiar with HTML and CSS and frankly I wouldn't want them doing that.
I am using the latest version of WordPress (3.9.2)
p.s. I have the TinyMCE Advanced plugin installed already, it's quite cool but it doesn't have the above features I want.
Believe It or Not you can do this with TinyMCE Advanced.
step 1.) Install and activate the plugin (you said that you done that)
step 2.) Navigate to Settings->TinyMCE Advanced (in admin back-end and click it)
step 3.) There you will see it says Unused Buttons click the button you want and
drag and drop it inside Editor Settings (above Unused Buttons).
step 4.) after you have drag and dropped buttons click Save
step 5.) in order to change font color hover over icons inside Edit post
on one of them (beside undo/redo button) you will see on hover tool-tip that says Toolbar Toggle
click it and it will expand TinyMCE
step 6.) beside emoticons icon you will see an A letter (that letter is
underlined) this is where you change text color.
As you can see there a lot of options to choose from (you probably want Font Family and Font Sizes just see the step3 )
