I want make classnames some custom color, but it can be green only...
Comment 4 Milian Wolff 2011-06-19 21:01:16 UTC 
ah ok. so generally you want the custom semantic colors we add to be configurable.

Comment 6 Milian Wolff 2011-06-19 21:03:41 UTC 
from bug 231999:

I would like an option to set general color ranges OR color temperature for
semantic colorization.

Example:
 - blueish(cold) colors for local variables
 - redish (warm) colors for member variables
Comment 7 Leonardo 2014-04-07 02:22:16 UTC 
Old wish, eh?

I can't see why semantic colors can't be configured. Many of the hardcoded colors in KDevelop don't change, only blend with the background.

For instance, in kdevplatform code, the file language/highlighting/configurablecolors.cpp, it adds a bunch of hardcoded colors, one of them is the class color which doesn't change. What is the harm in making it configurable, in the same screen that we configure their overall intensity?

Not being able to configure them beats designing good color schemes.

Marking as duplicate of #395856 , which is newer but has more discussion.
