Find in Sublime Text 3 highlights one of the results, and a white outline of the other results. The white outline (any color outline) is very hard to see. Is there a way/package to highlight all search results?
Don't know if there's a way to have all the matches highlighted, but you can make them a lot easier to see by changing the colour and making the box thicker.
To do this, create your own colour scheme by adding a new .sublime-color-scheme file to the correct folder. For me (on linux) the simplest way is to copy the default color scheme file at ~/.config/sublime-text-3/Packages/Color Scheme - Default/Monokai.sublime-color-scheme to ~/.config/sublime-text-3/Packages/User/my_colors.sublime-color-scheme
Then add the following lines to the 'global' section:
"highlight": "var(orange3)",
"selection_border_width": "2",
To use your new colour scheme, select Color Scheme from the Preferences menu - there should now me a new scheme available called 'my_colors'.
I do have a dark themed tableau dashboard where the fonts will be white in color. whenever I try to edit the text in textbox, the editor pops with white as its background color (font color is also white so I cant see the text). Is there any option that I can change the background color of the text editor ?
Can you post a screenshot? When I change the color I get the same matching color in the text boxes:
I have a title in a pie chart in Excel 2007 whose text is underlined.
Can I make the line space between text and the underline larger and make the underline longer than the text itself?
I tried to add space before and after the text but the underline does not extend out with the white space.
This is what I have right now:
This is what I want:
VBA solutions are also welcome!
This can be achieved with 'normal' text editing. Add a line break (to allow a wider than normal gap between text and underline), fill the width with sufficient text (eg lots of .s), set the font of this added text to the same colour as its background and change the underline colour to suit (probably black) in Font after right-clicking on the Title box.
Edit re clarification request
How do you change the unused / bottom portion of the vim editor? The picture will hopefully clarify my terrible description :).
That section is controlled by the highlight group NonText. So you can add the following line after your colorscheme line to set the background color to blue.
highlight NonText ctermbg=blue
Of course change blue to whatever color you want. Also if you are in gvim you will want to use guibg= to set the background color.
I have been able to change the background color after installing the updates by changing
Tool / Options / Environment / Text Editor / Highlight Current Line (Active)
Is there a way to change the highlights border width or color?
I like having the highlight so I would prefer not to just disable it. But it would be nice to either eliminate the border, make it smaller or change the color.
You can make the border go away by going to
Tools > Options... > Environment > Fonts and Colors > Show settings for: Text Editor > Display items: Highlight Current Line (Active) / (Inactive)
In order to change border color you should change the setting "Item foreground" for both of them. You can choose any background color also, but there seems to be no way to change the width.
Seems to be this behavior was fixed since original answer was written. So answer needs update and here it is:
https://visualstudio.uservoice.com/forums/121579-visual-studio/suggestions/3012415-remove-the-light-border-around-highlight-current
You can remove the border by matching the Background color of the
Highlight Current Line (Active) setting in Fonts and Colors to the
Foreground color. This is a simple customization.
Go to Tools > Options > Environment > Fonts and Colors
and look there for Highlight Current line, active and inactive. To remove border as described by VS team by link and cite above.

Go to Fonts and Colors in Tools > Options > Environment > Fonts and Colors. Make sure "Show Settings For" is set to "Text Editor" and find the "Highlight Current Line (Active)" item in the "Display Items" list. Match the foreground color to the background color for that item and you'll notice the lighter border around the Highlight Current Line "disappears."
Try these settings out...
Tools (menu) > Options
Environment (tab) > General
Set Color Theme to Dark.
Environment (tab) > Fonts and Colors
Display Items > 'Highlight Current Line (Active)' (list item)
Set 'Item Foreground' to 'Default'
Set 'Item Background' to 'Automatic'
The border around the current line should no longer feel oppressively thick '-)
I like to use a black background for code, so I changed the line highlight colour to very dark grey [via TOOLS > Options... > Environment > Fonts and Colors > Display Items: > Highlight Current Line (Active)] so that it's not as visible against the background. Helpfully, although the border is too thick, text is actually rendered over the top of the border, which is nice.
Definitely, though, a thinner line and the ability to change the colour of the whole line, not just the border, would be welcome.
