Title: No colors in "Editor"-> Syntax Highliting
Post by: AZ on September 15, 2015, 04:01:17 am

hello,
  i can't change the background color for "Active Line" in the "Syntax Highlighting" .  It is something specific to either installation or installation and HW. Because i installed HW on same Fedora 22 and on that laptop it works fine.

how to reproduce?
 select "active line" and click on the "background" -> color selection dialogue will popup. select desired color. Observe that on the colour of "Background" button didn't change and is still grey.

Active line is still same color ( in my case - default to system - i can't see where the cursor is.)

Please advise.

Are you trying to highlight the active line that you caret is on? 

If so use main Menu>settings>editor click on the editor settings tab and look under options setting at the bottom.  Click in the box highlight line under caret. Your done
