Selected text, highlighting color

18 New Member
Hi there!

When I select text entered in an Input Field, highlighting color is always Black.
How can I change it for another color like, for example, a light Green (#66ff99)?

Many thanks in advance for your answers!

Best regards,

Gerry

Thank you, nomad, for replying.

Alas, in Flash 8 Pro, if I select the input field which is on the stage I get no result if I do Control + F3... (I use a Mac) and I didn't find any Property menu.
And in the Property Palette, I didn't find anything to set up the highlighting color which must appear when a user select in the .swf the text he/she entered in this field...

Anyway, I thank you again for your interest in my problem!

Hello, Sorry to be bringing up what seems to be a somewhat beaten up topic... This is what I wanted to do: Create a _simple_ text editor widget which supports VI(M) style keybindings but works with arbitrary fonts/unicode characters. Vi(m) unfortunately, does not support Devanagari (or proportional fonts) and it looks like it will take quite some time for these things to work. As

I have searched and searched and searched... Can someone please tell me how (or "if" it is even possible) to change selected text in a textarea? Specifically, say a user has highlighted "ppl" of the word "apple", using a mouse. Is there a way to have the (usally blue) highlight expand to the character to the left and right of the original highlight, which is to say, highlight the entire word?

My textBox comes on with all the text selected. Setting "hide selection" to "true" or using SelectedText or SelectedTextLength will not stop the highlighting. How do I get rid of the text pre- selection when the display comes on? -- Many thanks, Patrick.
