text selection feature

Hi, there is a recent (I don't know how old) feature where text areas
now highlight the selected text in all parts of the same text pane.
Does this feature have a name and a setting to control it?

thanks,
Mike

Try Settings >> Editing >> Use the secondary selection
There is also Settings >> Editing >> Show the colored bar on the current line

Hi Micheal

it is called secondary selection.
there is also the selection bar and the find replace selection.
You can disallow them individually or change the colors

Cheers
Alain
