Your request
I'd like to be able to highlight individual words / sentences within the rendered text of a InputTextMultiline field.
I've tried using imgui.PushStyleColor, but that did nothing. I assume this is intended for individual widgets.

Hi there! could you provide more details about your use case? what do you mean by "highlighting text"?
I think @Naatan means the Code Editor. Currently it is a Code Editor Widget but you will have to write your own syntax highlighter which is a bit complex.
I'm looking for something possibly a little less complex than the code editor with custom syntax highlighting. I'd like to be able to highlight different ranges within a multi line text field, which basically means coloring text manually by range.
Basically my use-case is similar to when you hit ctrl+f in your editor to search for strings; I want to be able to highlight text just like that.
@Naatan Current InputTextMultiline doesn't support to hightlight anything, and there is no easy way to implement it for now.
