Doesn't appear to have a problem in documents or the web
Where is it failing to work?
Can you go to where it is failing, switch system themes from the Appearance settings, then test the highlight?

It appears to be on here .... Changed Style from Zorin Gray-Dark to Adwaita-dark and then to just plain Adwaita .... still no change
Only on this site?

From what I can see .... I changed my preferences on here from Zorin Dark to Zorin and it is OK .... but lord I hate the white background ....
Strange. I am using Zorin Dark page on this website... And have no troubles with Highlight. But I also configured the Browser to use my gtk theme, not its inbuilt one.

I hate white background too, its like the power of the sun burning my retinas away. I need everything to be DARK, I like dark themes. Dark, darker then charcoal, blacker then your soul. HAHA

See my post again as I updated with a picture
I think the Highlight Color is the same or very near the Background color of the Forum Background...
EDIT: Confirmed. The highlight is #141414 and the background is #191919.

I turned dark back on and it doesn't show high-lite .... but why now as I have been using this dark since day one ?????
Alright Frog, I just spent time I didn't need to, to take a couple of screenshots. I am not really interested in tech support anymore, but I thought, what the heck, this wouldn't take that long so here.
DARK MODE ON CHROME
DARK MODE ON FIREFOX
As you can see, I selected a bit of text in both versions so you can see what that looks like with my set settings.

Look very closely at the Highlight portion in your screenshot above and you can see the highlight if only barely. It's there. Something was changed recently, apparently.
Might tag this for @AZorin or @zorink to review.
Which System theme are you using? Try changing system theme and see if that has any effect. If it does, we can probably tweak things on your Current theme so it works.

OK here is something interesting .... I changed my Home screen to run Gray Bird-Dark and then checked out the preferences in board again and it looks like you are right .... if you look at the photo you will see that the toggle your device's dark mode is now high-lighted .... strange ...

Ok, create a gtk.css file if you do not have one already in ~/.config/gtk-3.0/
Paste this into it and save the file:
.nemo-window rubberband, .nemo-window flowbox rubberband, .nemo-window treeview.view rubberband, .nemo-window .content-view rubberband, .nemo-window .rubberband, .thunar rubberband, .thunar .rubberband, .content-view.view.rubberband, .view.rubberband, flowbox rubberband, rubberband, .rubberband, rubberband, XfdesktopIconView.view .rubberband, .content-view rubberband, .content-view .rubberband, treeview.view rubberband {
background-color: rgba(0, 195, 255, 0.3);
border: 1px solid #000;
}
Log out, then in and test...

I have a gtk-3.0 in my .config folder but no ~/.config/gtk-3.0/ .... all I have in it is a file called bookmarks
Right click an open area within the folder named gtk-3.0 within .config...
Create new Document
Name it gtk.css
The path is ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css
The tilde (~) is shorthand for "HOME". The full path would be /home/$USER/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css
You can see how the shorthand (~) helps.
Once gtk.css is created, paste the above snippet into it and save the File. Then log out and in to test the changes.

Is this what I am supposed to have in the LibreWriter named gtk.css ????
.nemo-window rubberband, .nemo-window flowbox rubberband, .nemo-window treeview.view rubberband, .nemo-window .content-view rubberband, .nemo-window .rubberband, .thunar rubberband, .thunar .rubberband, .content-view.view.rubberband, .view.rubberband, flowbox rubberband, rubberband, .rubberband, rubberband, XfdesktopIconView.view .rubberband, .content-view rubberband, .content-view .rubberband, treeview.view rubberband { background-color: rgba(0, 195, 255, 0.3); border: 1px solid #000; }
The name of the file will be gtk.cs
Copy the content I posted above exactly and paste it into the gtk.css document.
