Highlight contrast

#1

Hello,

Completely new to sublime text and to programming in general. I’m actually in the process to buy a editor and choose sublime text … as it’s answering to all I want … there’s just one thing that bothers me … when I highlight text I would like more contrast with normal text (for example, I use the monokai color scheme but would like a lighter gray for the highlighted text) … I’m sure I can do it but, can someone help me find the right configuration file.

Thank You Very Much

Pat

This is possible by editing the theme or color scheme file, using Package Resource Viewer or Package Development, but it’s not for rank beginners.
You can seriously mess up your theme if you don’t know what you are doing.

I would say it is very easy to do. There was just another thread with a similar question, so I will link to its solution: How to change text color

A corresponding adjustment to turn the selection background red (for example) would be this:

{
    "globals": {
        "selection": "#ff0000"
    }
}
