Bug 359869 cannot see mouse selection in highlighted text in StyledText
Reported: 2011-10-04 12:31:49 | Status: resolved fixed

- happens in HEAD, worked fine in 3.7.x - is apparently caused by the recent Cairo graphics work - get eclipse to highlight a range of text in a java editor (eg.- do a search, highlight references to something, etc.) - use the mouse to select some text from within the highlighted range and note that you cannot see the selected range at all (though doing a copy+paste shows that the selection is logically there)
