HOW to change highlight line background?
« on: April 04, 2013, 03:51:36 pm »
Hello, just a quicky question, How do I change the background color of the highlight line caret option? I skimmed through the editor settings and I couldn't find what I'm looking for.



Here's what I mean, see that subtle sort of yellow color of the highlight line background? How do I change that to any color?

"Settings -> Editor -> Syntax highlighting -> C/C++ -> Active Line"

It's "Active Line" in the syntax highlighting options, but you also have to enable "Highlight line under caret" in the general editor settings.

Looking at the screenshot, I assume the OP already has it activated.

Yes, but answers here are surely not aimed solely at the original questioner! Other people may have problems with this and wonder why the highlight is not being displayed.
