Old behavior

Highlighting of selected text seems to use a different color in Eclipse 4.4. M3 Maybe this is related to the GTK3 usage.

I also noted a different behavior for this color in Bug 420835 in which I suggest to use COLOR-LIST-SELECTION for the DragAndDrop behavior. Works fine on M2 but not on M3.
Comment 3 Lars Vogel CLA 2013-11-04 09:51:11 EST 
If I start Eclipse with export SWT_GTK3=0 highlighting is back to normal.
Comment 4 Lars Vogel CLA 2013-12-04 04:55:08 EST 
Any change here in the last days? Todays integration build looks good again.
Comment 5 Alexander Kurtakov CLA 2013-12-04 05:22:06 EST 
Not that I know of. Such coloring issues in the past have been fixed by changes in gtk themes so if you updated your system's theme package or installed a new one the change/fix might be caused by that.

Yes, seems to be related to the theming of Eclipse. I close this bug as INVALID.
