Is there a way for me to adjust the contrast on ignored + non-project files

[adampatterson]

In my old age I am finding these files hard to read. Is there any way I can adjust the background or ignored file names?

Yes!

You are looking for the 'ignored' color file status color. tldr: Settings -> Version Control -> File Status Colors -> Ignored.

Thanks so much!

Would you happen to know where I can adjust the background colour?
