I'm trying to change the background of texmaker by using copy-pasting it into the config file but It doesn't change the background as dawu has it in his answer to the question:

How can I set a dark theme in TeXstudio?

    Welcome! Are you using TeXStudio or TeXmaker? – cfr Jul 22 '15 at 03:16
  • So do you have any reason to think it should work for TeXmaker? – cfr Jul 31 '15 at 13:16
  • Read the comments down on the link from dawu, who has customized it for TexMaker – Irland Aug 04 '15 at 01:33
  • Can you edit your post to replace the current link with http://tex.stackexchange.com/a/196020/? That will provide a direct link to the relevant answer and should avoid the confusion I had around the TeXStudio/TeXmaker issue. I tried to edit your post to substitute the link myself (I was then going to ask you to confirm it was correct). However, it all went horribly wrong and now I can't :(. – cfr Aug 04 '15 at 02:10
  • Oh, I see Community did it. Can you just check it is the correct link? – cfr Aug 04 '15 at 02:58

From MrGer's answer here: https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/196020/100323

Texmaker with Solarized dark theme

You can add it at Texmaker's config file texmaker.ini, which should located at

  • Linux: $HOME/.config/xm1
  • Windows: %APPDATA%/xm1
  • Mac OS X: $HOME/.config/xm1

Here are the lines with the colors. They need to be replaced at the config file:

Color\Background=@Variant(\0\0\0\x43\x1\xff\xff\0\0++66\0\0)
Color\Command=@Variant(\0\0\0\x43\x1\xff\xff&&\x8b\x8b\xd2\xd2\0\0)
Color\Comment=@Variant(\0\0\0\x43\x1\xff\xffllqq\xc4\xc4\0\0)
Color\Highlight=@Variant(\0\0\0\x43\x1\xff\xff\a\a66BB\0\0)
Color\Keyword=@Variant(\0\0\0\x43\x1\xff\xff\xdc\xdc\x32\x32//\0\0)
Color\KeywordGraphic=@Variant(\0\0\0\x43\x1\xff\xff\x85\x85\x99\x99\0\0\0\0)
Color\Line=@Variant(\0\0\0\x43\x1\xff\xff\a\a66BB\0\0)
Color\Math=@Variant(\0\0\0\x43\x1\xff\xff**\xa1\xa1\x98\x98\0\0)
Color\NumberGraphic=@Variant(\0\0\0\x43\x1\xff\xff\xcb\xcbKK\x16\x16\0\0)
Color\Standard=@Variant(\0\0\0\x43\x1\xff\xff\x83\x83\x94\x94\x96\x96\0\0)
Color\Todo=@Variant(\0\0\0\x43\x1\xff\xff\xd3\xd3\x36\x36\x82\x82\0\0)
Color\Verbatim=@Variant(\0\0\0\x43\x1\xff\xff\xb5\xb5\x89\x89\0\0\0\0)

  • This did not work for me at the beginning. I opened the file, replaced the lines, saved, started texmaker but nothing changed. – desmond13 Oct 03 '17 at 16:26

    TO MAKE IT WORK: I opened the file, copied it in a new file, replaced the lines, saved with a different name, started texmaker and then OPTIONS->SettingsFile->Replace Settings File with a New One

    Selected the new file just created, restarted texmaker and voila'.
