I could not find any information on how to change the background color of the matching brackets.

Reproducible: Always

That would really depend on whether it's configurable or not. Which editor are you using? What kind of files are you editing? If it's configurable, it's likely in the preferences.

I am using PDT.
I found just config border:

Preferences -> General -> Editors -> Structured Text Editor -> Matching brackets highlight

but the border are not too visible in the code

as these settings are in "genreal", then I wrote that this applies to the entire platform

Did you try opening HTML files or XML files? Do those get highlighted properly?

That preference page will only be there if you have the source editing plug-ins from WTP. In any case, this is either an SSE or a PDT bug. I'll let PDT decide that.

Platform/UI is for generic things like the behaviour of views and editors and how they interact (reacting to selection, what happens on close) with the workbench and is not exactly tied to what content they are actually displaying. The content would be owned by whoever wrote that particular view or editor. We do own some views but I guess that's not important to the conversation at hand. ;)

Hmm... In HMTL except brackets highlighted more tags.
Here highlight seems to me correct.

Option 'Matching brackets highlight' work with PHP editor and should be enough for now.
