You can change the highlight color currently, but I would love to be able to change the background the same way I am able to with other Adobe products. It helps for me to enhance some coloring depending on the project at hand and I know someone has previously mentioned their screen reflects too much of them (screen becomes a mirror) so it makes it harder to see.

Hello

 

In the After Effects Beta, we have the option of 3 theme colors: Darkest, Dark, and Light. However the highlight color is not compatible with the new themeing. Please see this announcement for more detail.
