Highlighted text hardly visible when using text search in dark mode

Author: Ammon-PhilippCreated Sep 15, 2026Updated Sep 15, 2026

Summary

Using dark mode, both search text matches and their corresponding text lines are nearly impossible to see as of unsuitable highlighting colours. The contrast is too low. Plus: The text match itself is not even highlighted, so you have to manually search for it.

Tolaria version - 2026.9.8

OS version - Win 10 - 22H2 - build 19045.7727

Steps to reproduce

  1. Activate dark mode
  2. Activate text search feature (without the options REGEX or case sensitivity)
  3. Insert a search text
  4. Search next match
  5. Try to locate the text search match's line
  6. Try to locate the text search match

What you expected to happen

  1. Search next text match
  2. Jump to match position
  3. Highlight match itself with high contrast to background
  4. Highlight outer surrounding passage containing the text match with medium contrast to background

What actually happened

  1. Search next text match
  2. Jump to match position
  3. Highlight outer surrounding passage containing the text match with low contrast to background
