find/replace highlighting

With text in either the 'Find' field, 'Find What' field or 'Replace With' field when using either 'Find..' or 'Replace...' from the Edit menu, selecting the text with the mouse or keyboard does not highlight it.

What is your coloring of selection in editor?
Comment 2 squarestar 2012-12-17 14:21:37 UTC 
My selection-background colour for text I'm editing is white and the background of the work area is gray.

Comment 4 squarestar 2012-12-17 14:35:29 UTC 
I've added an attachment showing the difference between v7.1.1, when it worked correctly and v7.2.1/7.3b2 which don't play nice with custom colours.
Comment 5 Milutin Kristofic 2012-12-17 14:36:48 UTC 
Yes, I changed find text field from textfield implementation to editor implementation. I am now testing if I fixed this in netbeans 7.3 dev build. I fixed similar bug with white caret. Bug #215433
Comment 6 Milutin Kristofic 2012-12-17 14:41:04 UTC 
reproducible in 7.3 build. Option-Fonts&colors-Highlighting-Selected Text = White
Comment 7 Milutin Kristofic 2013-01-07 14:48:14 UTC 
7.3 is very close to be released and this bug needs big changes in editor infrastructure. Therefore I am moving fixing to next release, it will be fixed in early development version of next release.

I am changing priority to P3, since this is very specific to rare color profile. Having white color for select in netbeans profile and white background in system profile. There is easy workaround to change a little color profile.

http://wiki.netbeans.org/BugPriorityGuidelines
P2 - Product feature doesn't work, a workaround may exist but it's difficult to use or impractical

P3 - Part of a product feature is affected, a viable workaround exists
