I am trying to make my Eclipse cooler like IntelliJ's darcular theme. Everything is fine now except the tab's background's color. It's white and I can't see the words clearly. Just like the picture below. enter image description here

By TWiStErRob's comment I found where to change it for me, which also had bright tabs when switching to dark theme.

Below the steps how I changed my tabs:

Go in the top menu to window, then preferences.

window > preferences

Then drill down to General > Appearance > colors and fonts
There is a list with multiple background begin, background end options. If you select an option you can use the edit button to change the color.

How to change tab colors

Default you only get the basic colors. By clicking the *Define Custom Colors >>** button you can use a color picker or the hex/hsl editor fields to enter your own preferred colors. I changed them all (all the background begin/background end options) from their bright colors to darker colors.

color picker

The end result.

end result

Thanks to TWiStErRob for giving the pointer where to find the setting.
