When I enable "Override Document Colors", and choose a new "Page Background Color", the color of selected text unexpectedly changes to light gray. I don't want this; I want selected text to keep its normal color (the usual behavior of selected text). I think this is a bug, but if it's a setting, please let me know which one. Thank you.

Hello Suspicious_Advantage,
It seems that I can't reproduce this problem on my end, but this is maybe because we are using different versions of the PDF Editor!
Could you please tell me what version is your PDF Editor?
You may see this information in the Help -> About menu.
Regards.

Re: Selected text changes color with "Override Document Colors"
Hi all,
I see the same effect here (with PDF-XChange Editor, build 366).
It seems like it has already been working like that for a long period (tested with build 343).
Myself, I do not know if this should be seen as a bug, or should it normally behave like that, by design.
I think that only Tracker Support and/or Tracker Development can answer that.
Kind regards.

I'm pretty sure it's a consequence of the blending, I doubt it is intentional, but it may be unavoidable. It's a public holiday here today so the devs are taking a well deserved day off. I hope to get some input on this tomorrow.

Re: Selected text changes color with "Override Document Colors"
Hi all,
This selection color issue has been around for a long time. There will be a few more threads on the forum.
In two PDF editors I've tried, which are quite weak compared to XChange, this color issue has been fixed. For that reason alone, "accessibility" is ineffective.
