That is actually how I was doing it, but after the last token the colour would then change to some random sampling of whatever it thought the background was supposed to be at the time. I had a one line hack that set colEditorBG := attr.Background inside PaintLines() which worked a treat (It would always leave the remainder of the line as the background colour of the last token on the line) but that got broken by r17523 which insists on forcing the colour of the remainder of the active line to white. At this point I decided I needed to find an approved method for setting this colour. > Another workaround would be to write a special SynMarkup-class (like > match-brackets, current selection, special line), to go with the > highlighter. I'll poke my head inside the markup class and see what I can find.
