I mostly use INI files, and often use the Find/Replace dialogue at the bottom of the window. Whenever I enter a search term to be found, everything in the current document is highlighted with a sort of olive coloured border.
I'm happy that it only shows a border, but would like to change the colour of this border as it's not too easy to see as I use a dark background theme.
I looked everywhere I can think of, but find no option to change this setting, is it possible? I thought it might have been in the Menu under Options/Settings-theme-ui, but I can't see it there.
If it doesn't exist yet, would you please consider adding the option to the Setting-theme-ui dialogue? Thank you

I see it, but when I open that I get this message:
Also, when I open the menuitem "Options / Settings - theme - syntax", It's saying that the border is grey and it's actually the background that is Olive! So, I'm a bit hesitant to enable the first option and change the second, if you see what I mean?
I don't know how this will affect my current setup if I enable it?!

I saved it as I was asked if I wanted to save the change, which came up with sub as the name to save the theme to, no idea if I should have saved it or not, I assume that was right?
I am a bit ignorant on how these advanced text editors work I'm afraid,
I have tried other simpler editors but the highlighting is all I really need, which seems unsupported on simpler ones.
Anyway, thank you again for your help.

it was right. you must save the theme file. but on Cud reinstalling, 'sub' theme will be reset! so save it to a different name, e.g. 'sub2'. then activate 'sub2' in the "Options / Select color theme" dialog.
