How do I change the black background of the Aptana IDE (or the entire theme) to a different one, like blue?

I actually think that this is a reasonable question. There is a list of built-in themes in Window->Preferences->Aptana->Themes. – zzz
I have to agree with @EricGustavson I had quite a deal of difficulty working this out as well. – Klee
I love that this question is the third result in the linked google search:) – Tobbe
A simple google search led me to this result. – Phillip
Since this question is closed (which is a really stupid thing btw) I try to answer it in the comments: go to Window->Preferences->Aptana Studio->Themes and select Eclipse theme – gyozo kudor

As gyozo mentioned in the comment, for a blue theme, use

Window->Preferences->Aptana Studio->Themes

and select the Eclipse theme.

Default background color in Text Editors window seems to be black. No matter whar I do I am not able to change it.

Here's what I do:

Right click ind the editors window Select "Preferences" at the fly-out menu Select "General > Editors > Text Editors" Change "Background color" in the appearance box from black to anything Click "Apply".

The change is made to the background of the line numbers in that column.

It's just very simple!

Just do: Window next go to Preferences then Aptana Studio finally click Themes and select your theme!

To change the master theme do as above, but if you want to change the editor theme, go to

Window -> preferences -> aptana studio -> publishing -> themes

In Aptana 3.6.1 "editor theme" is the second option in that tree. You can use one of the built-in themes or import your own.
