PhpStorm : Darcula theme shows white background

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:

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.

You have to set "scheme" in "editor->colors and fonts" to darcula. There are several other dark editor schemes you could try.
