Description Elvis Stansvik 2016-09-08 15:03:22 UTC
When hovering an identifier in the editor (such as QString) with the mouse, all occurances of this identifier are highlighted with a pale yellow background (see attached screenshot). I can't find a way to configure the color used for this highlighting in the KDevelop configuration.

Is it hardcoded somewhere? It would be nice to be able to change it, as it doesn't play too well with some editor color schemes.

Reproducible: Always

I think the proper way to implement that would be to add a plugin hook into the ktexteditor fonts&colors config page, then add our stuff there into a custom group. this would also allow us to add configurations for the other syntax highlighting colors

Pushed by brauch into branch '5.0'.

Use search background color for highlighting in the view.

So far it was always a hard-coded bright yellow.
