Highlighting the current line

[ktory]

I've been using TP for 10+ years, and love it to death. However, every time I use it, I struggle to find my cursor line, with its faint yellow highlight. I've looked through the help, and have found any way configure it to show a more visible indication. Can this be changed, or am I doomed to be forever searching for my cursor?

Go to Configure > Preferences..., and you'll bring up the Preferences dialog.

In the left pane, under "Document Classes", choose the Document Class for which you'd like to change the color of the current line.

Expand the node, and you should see Colors, Font, Printing, Syntax, Tabulation.

Choose "Colors".

Under "Item" in the middle area, you should see a row for "Current Line". Highlight that item, and you'll see a sample to the right, along with a picker for "Foreground" and "Background". Change these to any color you like, and click "OK".

Hope this helps.

Wow! I can finally see my current line. No sure why the default is so subtle, but now I'll go through all of my document classes and change them.

Thanks so much!
