Modifying PhpStorm's UI Theme to match the Colors and Fonts Theme

I have a Colors & Fonts theme I pulled in from daylerees. I imported the theme in to my ~/.WebIde90/config/colors/ folder. As seen in the screenshot below, I am using Color IDE which changes my Project navigation to the same color.

enter image description here

My problem is I can't get my top menu bar (ie: the one containing File, Edit, etc.) to change to the same color theme. I opened up my settings, and under Appearance & Behavior > Appearance, there is no matching theme under the UI Options. My only options are Alloy, Darkula, GTK and Intellij.

Is there any way to change the UI Theme to match the Colors and Fonts theme?

There is no customisation interface of any kind for GUI themes (also known as Look & Feel in Java Swing applications).

Basically -- everything is inside the theme. If you want to change it -- you will have to make your own (which is not an easy task as you need to make sure it will work OK in IDEA products, which may have some specifics) or hack the existing one (just changing colors should not be hard). This is actually one of the reasons why such plugins like "Color IDE" exists in first place.

You can change interface fonts at Settings/Preferences | Appearance & Behavior | Appearance | Override default fonts by.

I may suggest you to look at custom (modified Darcula) dark GUI & Editor themes at https://github.com/ChrisRM/material-theme-jetbrains . Please note that latest EAP builds (PhpStorm v10) are not fully supported yet -- only stable versions ATM (which is v9 for PhpStorm).
