"Searched" text have weird background color

Open OshidaBCF opened this issue 2 years ago • 8 comments

If i search some text in a file, then "unselect" the text, this appear, it appear on every occurrence of the searched text image image

Is there a way to change that ? or a "transparent" background color, so it take the one "under" it

I don't remember it doing that in 16.28

You can change the color in the Colors/Markers category of the Options dialog. image

I tried but i can't set it to a "transparent" color image This happen

Unfortunately, transparent colors cannot be specified for markers.

Then it is possible to "disable" this mark ?

I'm sure it wasn't doing that in the previous version but i don't remember anything changing about this.

Unfortunately it cannot be disabled.

Labeled this issue as an enhancement.

The issue is that when you close the search dialog box, it does not clear the highlight for any of the found matches.
