Cannot change Android Studio Logcat colors - android

I'm following a few tutorials in order to change my Logcat colors in Android Studio 0.6.1 without success.
To set it up I go to:
File -> Settings -> Editor -> Colours and Fonts -> Android Logcat
Once on Android Logcat, the foreground, background, etc. check boxes are all disabled.
Does anyone have an idea why?
Thanks in advance.

You cannot change the default so first you need to creat your own configuration by clicking on "save as" button.
After doing so there is a check-box below the all available color options, Entitled "Inherit Attributes From Console", Untick that checkbox will enable all color options for you.

To change the Logcat colors you can go to goto File > Settings or press Ctrl+Alt+S.
You can see this similar UI assuming you are using Darcula Theme
Note you need to unchecked Use inherited attributes in-order to modify the color.

How to turn on XML attribute inspector

I recently disabled the XML attribute inspector that would prompt messages such as the below in the XML in real time before running the app. Now since I disabled it I am only able to see the errors when I run my app.
How can i turn on the instant "Attribute inspector" back on?
It would be displayed as a red light bulb to the left of the XML such as:
Android Studio -> Preferences -> Editor -> Inspections
Press on "reset" at the upper right corner, or if it is not there, then search for "xml" and check the appropriate fields according to your needs.
File>Setting>Editor>Code style>Inspection>
Try checking/unchecking some Android>Lint>...

Change Android Studio 1.5 Interface Color

I changed my color scheme from Default to Dracula, and along with the syntax colouring, the Android Studio interface was set to dark as well.
However, now if I select the Default theme again, the interface remains dark, and would not change back to light grey/white as it should.
I read that in other version's of Android Studio you could change the interface color from Preferences > Editor > General > Appearance, but I cannot find any theme-related settings there.
From your Keyboard press Ctrl+` (back quote) a popup will show
change whatever you want to change from there.
Did you go to: Settings > Appearances > Theme
From there in the theme window, did you see a Theme drop down options? If so try changing it there.
If you've already tried this. Try restarting your Android Studio, if it doesn't make a difference, try changing it again as the change may not have saved before.
I found the theme (interface) option, in OSX is actually under Preferences > Appearance & Behaviour > Appearance.
It is not that straightforward considering the syntax colouring options are in another section entirely :/

Android Studio Change Occurrence Color

How can I change the occurrence/write occurrence color in Android Studio? Is this even possible? In Eclipse it was found (on a Mac) under Preferences->General->Editors->Text Editors->Annotations
Does Android Studio even provide this option? It's a number of small annoyances like this (as well as the massive performance issues it seems to be having thus far) that prevent me from moving to Android Studio.
Currently running Android Studio 1.2 Beta if that helps.
Go to menu
Preferences > Editor > Color&Fonts > General
Find "Identifier under caret" and change Foregound or/and Background colors with a color you wish. When you click a variable, it will be highlighted with the color you chose.
To mark selected occurrences in Android Studio you have to additionally use a shortcut
Ctrl+Alt+Shift+J
to mark them. Then all occurrences will be highlighted with darker better to see color. That option is also available in menu
Edit -> Find -> Select All Occurrences
Still if you want to change that color then you can find it in
File -> Settings -> Editor -> Colors & Fonts -> General -> Selection background
If you are using default scheme then you will have to save a new scheme to change selection background color.
Sadly I didn't find any option to change the color of selected occurrence after selecting class/variable (one click, like in Eclipse). I guess that there is no option for that yet.

Can I use special colors with logcat

I want to write some information to logcat but I want to specify the color of these texts , is it possible to do that ?
Window -> Preferences -> Android -> Logcat -> Colors
You can change some specific Logcat Message Colors from here (like Debug, Error messages).
If you want to use a Windows script, you can also check this link:
http://adrianvintu.com/blogengine/post/Colored-Logcat-Script-for-Windows.aspx
If your using Android Studio, you can change the colours, by clicking, Settings - Editor - Colours & Font - Android Logcat. You can then choose custom colours, for the Logcat level (Error, warning ...)

Does anybody know how to change the font for "Run" Console window?

It doesn't go with the global font setting in Android Studio.
yes you can change
Go to the File -> settings in that Editor-> Colors & Fonts in that go to the console font and in that you need to create new scheme name and change it.
you cannot modify the default one.
what are fonts are available you need to choose that and in the selected fonts you need to give the top priority by moving it by arrows at right side.
