I think it is occurring only in the SourceViewer. Not in underlying StyledText since Styledtext has no line highlighting. Any idea how this can be fixed? Maybe I can give it a try. I don't understand. The image looks like dark mode? I have the impression it somehow uses the line highlighting color from light mode. Maybe related to bug 577912 or bug 565967.

Maybe related to bug 577912 or bug 565967. It is high contrast mode in windows (can be set in the settings). This is something different than dark mode in eclipse. Eclipse is still in light mode.

Eclipse even recognizes the high contrast switch and ask for restart. But somehow the line color is wrong. |
Created attachment 288109 [details] high_contrast_sourceviewer.png Refer to the attachment. Setup is Windows in high contrast mode and Eclipse running with light theme. The line with the caret is really, really hard to read. I didn't do any selection, it is just the line which is currently edited.
