Why can't I change the text background in Notepad++ - styles

No matter what theme XML I use from the NPP Style Configurator, I can't change the background of existing text. Any help would be much appreciated!
I can't post images yet, but here is a link showing the issue:

First make sure that you are using latest version. Click Here.
Current Version: 6.7.4
Then still if problem exists then go to Settings > Style Configurations.
Here you can change all settings like what is font color and it's background and in which language.

Setting italic in RichtText

I am displaying richtext on my web page. and have added an italic text, but it does no show as italic, just normal text.
when I look in developer tool it looks like the xsp.css is setting font-style to inherit but I can't decide what it inherits from.
how can I find out what is causing the italic to not being set correctly?
I created an empty database with a form and an xpage and seem to get the same problem
the result is the same in Chrome, Firefox and IE
In Developer Tools go to the second tab on the right called Computed. Here you can find "font-style" and see what style sheets are used to compute the styling.
Here's an example from an XPages app that uses the OneUI theme:

Settings type «invisibles» and «shadow» in Sublime Text 3 .tmTheme file

I have read the documentation for the Color Schemes. I realized all settings except invisibles and shadow (+shadowWidth). I can translate from English, but I do not see anywhere where the elements, the color of which changes settings. Does anyone could show me the screenshots, where there are elements which change color? Thanks.
From the unofficial documentation on color schemes, linked to in your question, we can see that invisibles is ignored, so changing it has no effect on the appearance of any elements in ST3. The tmTheme format is borrowed from a different text editor, to make it easier to use the same color scheme in different editors. So maybe it does something in other text editors, but not in ST. EDIT: support for invisibles has been added to ST in build 3149 - https://github.com/SublimeTextIssues/Core/issues/1992.
The effect of the shadow setting can be seen below, it is the pink parts on the far sides:
It is only visible when the text in the document is wider than the window - it will appear on the left when the view can be scrolled to the left and it will appear on the right when the view can be scrolled to the right.
From my testing, including shadowWidth in the tmTheme file will cause the shadow to not appear. I have logged an issue in the unofficial documentation here, maybe someone will update it with details of how to get this working.
Note:
When making changes to atmTheme file, it is often necessary to close all open documents, and restart Sublime Text, before the change will become visible.

Change Text Highlight Color in Eclipse Console

Question
Is it at all possible to change the color of the text highlight in Eclipse console to something more visible in Manjaro Linux? Your time and help are both much appreciated.
Important notes
I am using the default GTK theme. I do not want to use a different theme.
For testing, I have tried using a different theme, but that didn't help.
Problem
Currently, I am stuck with a barely visible light grey text selection in Eclipse console in the following two scenarios:
When manually selecting text
When using the Find\Replace... search function
Supporting screenshots
Manual mouse text selection:
Find/Replace... selection:
Looking into and changing these settings did not help:
I once ran into the same problem and used the gnome-color-chooser to resolve this issue.
You have to change property selected_bg_color value in your current GTK theme gtkrc file. I am using Ambiance theme.
So my setting are:
cat /usr/share/themes/Ambiance/gtk-2.0/gtkrc | more
gtk-color-scheme = "base_color:#ffffff\nfg_color:#4c4c4c\ntooltip_fg_color:#000000\nselected_bg_color:#f07746\nselected_fg_color:#FFFFFF\ntext_color:#3C3C3C\nbg_color:#F2F1F
0\ntooltip_bg_color:#f5f5c5\nlink_color:#DD4814"

Changing font of text inside an extension library dialog box?

How do you change the text within the extension library dialog box? No matter what I do, the text remains the same size. I can see the font change in the designer cleint but not in the browser. I tried looking at it with IE Developer Tools but I can't even see the text anywhere.
I have no idea what was going on yesterday but it just wasn't working. I was simply trying to set the text size of a computed field inside a dialog box. I changed the font size in the properties of the computed field and seems to work now, We have seen these issues on our dev server before.
I am not sure if you can change the text with text options but you can if you use HTML, and it should also work with CSS.
Standard <h1><h2><h... oh you get the idea works for me.

color selector in aptana

Is there any color selector in Aptana? I mean, like the one that Dreamweaver displays when you are trying to choose an hexadecimal color, a small box of pre-defined colours. Thank you!
If you are editing a .css file, you can find a color picker at Commands->CSS->Insert color
There is no option for Aptana by default. Someone is developing one, according a blog post in aptanastudio (http://aptanastudio.tenderapp.com/discussions/questions/826-color-picker-css-editor) , but you can use an online tool like Chroma (http://lucumalabs.com/chroma/) instead
