Is there a way to get rid of the dashed lines surrounding the current line (the line where the cursor is)?
This dashed lines usually interfere with the underscore character...

1. From the Configure menu choose Preferences
2. + sign next to Document classes
3. + sign next to Default
4. Colors
5. From the "Item menu", click on "Current line"
6. Click on the arrow next to Foreground and select the color White
7. Click Apply/OK

I hope this helps.

It works well when background color is white
