Hello, I have a custom XML file located at ~/.local/share/org.kde.syntax-highlighting/syntax/ This file has a higher priority for .tex files than the default one an should be chosen for highlighting .tex files by default when open new files. This behavior is correctly performed by kate on my system. All .tex file choose my XML file for highlighting when I open them. However, kile does not. It always chooses the default settings and not my custom ones. I can switch to my highlighting scheme manually but this has to be done for each file separately which can be very annoying for a larger project. Can someone look into that, please.
Try increasing the "version=" number in the language header of your xml file. Helped me in a similar case. See bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=400719
