Use different theme when running Rider as administrator

Created December 30, 2021 04:28

Hello,

Is there any way to use different color scheme when running Rider as Administrator? I wanted to make sure that I'm not accidentally running Rider using Admin account for my normal day-to-day development workflow. Theming can make things stands out (like in Ubuntu where your root terminal looks different than normal terminal)

if your admin user is a different user then they should have different settings/themes

Hello,

Unfortunately, there is no such feature.

But one can develop a plugin for that.

There are a lot of articles and tutorials about how to develop IntelliJ plugins:

Rider sample plugin: https://github.com/matkoch/resharper-rider-sample-plugin)
An article about Rider Frontend plugin development: https://blog.jetbrains.com/dotnet/2017/02/07/rider-front-end-plugin-development/
Creating Your First Plugin: http://www.jetbrains.org/intellij/sdk/docs/basics/getting_started.html

Here is a link https://plugins.jetbrains.com/rider to the plugin collection. Moreover, there is a Slack channel #rider-pluginwriters where plugin writers can ask Rider/R#/IJ developers.
