问题:

When I move over a class name all the other places that that class name shows up are highlighted. When I hover over a variable it does the same thing with different places that I have used that variable. I cannot find where to change that setting in Netbeans.

I changed everything else, but even when I looked under every option in the highlighting section there were none with the same shade of yellow that is seen here:

There was also nothing in the Syntax or Annotations section that had that shade of yellow. Is this even a setting that I have control of?

I have Netbeans 7.2.1 if anyone needs to know.

回答1:

It is Language-specific. You have to go to Syntax > Change a Language and modify the "Mark Ocurrency" color.

My answer is too late but it might be useful for someone else ,, In Neatbeans Tools >> Options >> Fonts & Colors >> Language (Java) >> Mark occurrences .
