      Good afternoon, colleagues!

      Tell me how and wherein the settings to change the color of the text selection? Because I have it now standing black. Therefore, the text that I selected with the mouse is not visible at all. Because the text color is black and the highlight color is also black.

      This happened because I chose Options> Solarization-style in the Preferences> Style Definition. Because he came up to me more in color.

      How now change the color of the text selection inside this style?

        I think you want the Background colour setting of Selected text colour in the Settings menu > Style Configurator... :

              @Сергей-Друзь :

              it’s dark green

              The dark green is coming from the combination of “selected text” and Smart Highlighting for the word double-clicked.

              You can change the Smart Highlighting color (default is light green) by selecting it in the Style: column of the earlier screenshot and then picking your new desired Colour Style.

                But if you do that, remember, when you double-click a word it will still show in a combination of the two different color types.
