    After using the Compare plugin (contributed by jsleroy) the line highlight background color becomes black, so you can’t read anything anymore on the line at cursor position. In my point of view it might be a bug in NPP, not in the Compare plugin. The line highlight background should never be set black when the text color is black (unreadable text if same color). I also use the CSVlint plugin (contributed by BdR76) which has a very elegant and intelligent line highlight background coloring for CSV column coloring. It might therefore also be a conflict between NPP, Compare and CSVlint. Please help me out!

      have you considered using the newer ComparePlus version from Pavel?

        Hi, just want to confirm the conflict is with CSVLint & Compare-plugin after call Compare function

        Compare plugin v2.0.2
        CSV Lint v0.4.6.6

        Solution: Alt+F4 & Reopen Notepad++ solves this, not the best solution but not the worst either xd

          You need to turn off CSV Lint’s transparent cursor option, or the problem will keep coming back:
