+</details>
+
+The `Colors and Fonts` preferences page now displays descriptions for the top level theme categories in addition to the individual sub tree elements.
+Previously, only child entries in the tree provided descriptive text. 
+With this update, parent categories such as `Java`, `Basic`, `Debug`, `Text Compare` etc. also include descriptions, helping users better understand what each category covers and making it easier to locate relevant settings.
