Trouble applying the Soda Theme in Sublime Text 2

fullstackplus picture fullstackplus · Jul 19, 2012 · Viewed 18.2k times · Source

I've installed the Soda Theme using the Package Control in Sublime Text 2, then activated it via Preferences -> Settings - User. However it doesn't get applied. Instead my theme now is Solarized, which is declared at the top of my Preferences.sublime-settings file (line 3):

When I query the console for the theme, the output is correct:

>>> view.settings().get('theme')
u'Soda Light.sublime-theme'

This is correct, as well:

>>> view.settings().get('color_scheme')
u'Packages/Color Scheme - Default/Solarized (Light).tmTheme'

Why do I see the Solarized theme and not Soda?

Thanks!

The Theme is not the text-editing screen's colours.

It is the chrome of the program, everything around the text editor; tab styles; etc.

If you check out Soda on Github you can download and then use the same colour scheme as in the screenshots.
