I use this in my save-flash plugin (one day I'll release that for the IDE!) - see particularly the code here - https://github.com/praxis-live/praxis-live/blob/master/praxis.live.editor.saveflash/src/net/neilcsmith/praxis/live/editor/saveflash/FlashOnSaveHighlight.java#L124 I assume you'd want to use StyleConstants.Background as the key? See the FontColorSettings code - https://github.com/apache/incubator-netbeans/blob/master/editor.settings/src/org/netbeans/api/editor/settings/FontColorSettings.java Hope that helps.
