JetBrains IDEA: Change color of code completion menu selection highlight in Darcula LAF

Darcula and I are struggling to come to terms. Legibility is poor overall but some things I just have to change:

screenshot

In this code completion suggestion menu, the selected item is not legible.

Where in the preferences or preferences XML file is the background color of the selected item text set?

You can find the option to change the color of the code auto completion window from the following place.

Open your settings > Editor > Color Scheme > General > Popups and Hints > Completion.

Note: you may also search for the keyword completion in the settings page to find the option fast.

Then adjust the background color and click apply.

You can check the screenshot for a visual reference.

I got a nice answer to your question.

This is link : java - Changing the font colour in IDEA code-completion window - Stack Overflow

You just need unable this option : 

[ 
Settings —— Editor —— Code Completion 
—— Insert selected variant by typing dot , space ,etc . 
]

No doubt of it , it works very well for me !

I solved this probleme by downloading a new INTELLIJ THEME named Gradianto and it works nice,

Gradianto allows you to chose beetween 3 darcula theme once it's installed in your intellij, and all of this theme will highlight the selected item clearly with code completion.

Yous install the theme with : IntellijIDEA --> Preferences --> Plugins --> And you search and install Gradianto theme

Here is the youtube tutoriel where i see it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsZZm5f5JD0

Hope that will help

Thanks
