This is definitely an issue associated with an upgrade as we are rolling out a 4.1.2.20 to users and they are reporting it and I can see it myself. All of my connections that show as black and normal have the colour property of no colour. The few that are greyed out seem to have selected the grey option. That has not been done by me or other users. I have reset the greyed out ones to no colour and they are back as normal, showing black lettering.

It is not a big issue but it is definitely a feature

Right, I’m assuming there’s an issue here and not a fat-finger phenomenon where someone has inadvertently set the connection color to a visible grey in the connection properties.

Or if on upgrade, that would be weird…but interesting. Again, assuming if that’s the case you would be saying the connection color IS set to grey. Then we can figure out the how/why it got there.

I saw this as an artifact of an upgrade one time. It is just the color for the connection. You can change it. Right-click->properties on the connection and then click the little button next to "Connection Color."

There seems to be no obvious difference between the two types or reason why some are greyed-out and others are not

Ok, but you didn’t answer my first question. They appear “greyed out” -> If you right click and select properties – are you able to view/change the properties of the connection?

Yes fully functioning in that I can connect to a database and run a query – which is about all I ever do. We have many people reporting this though Version 4.1.2.20

Fully functioning – can they also edit the connection properties?

What version of SQL Developer are you and your users using?

Can anybody help me understand why connections in SQL Developer appear greyed out but are fully functioning I have seen comment that it is to do with the colour being set - Connect/Properties - but that has not being knowingly set and yet some just appear as greyed out but most are not

We are seeing a lot of users with this problem now and it is a question I would like to be able to answer, if only for my own satisfaction.
